I suppose I'm just old, and people doing stupid things isn't going to make my blood boil any more. I've accepted it by now as human nature. If you want to actually annoy me, you need to do something purely evil, like harming innocent people just to advance some stupid agenda of your own. Russians firing missiles at apartment buildings in Ukraine is a current example.

The author clearly had the means to sort her own case out, but you can certainly imagine someone who didn't and would be in jail for it. Sure, on the scale of evil it's nowhere near the Russian invasion of Ukraine, but I don't think this is shrug your shoulder and say "tough titty" territory either. How would you like it if you were unlucky enough to not have been able to sort this out and be in jail for it? On the bright side, it's not as bad as getting your house bombed!
- incompatible 3y agoCertainly, there was somebody who was actually sent to jail, even after patiently explaining their case in court, and if the management of the cable provider knew exactly what was happening, and continued their persecution because of some stupid business reason, it would be more concerning. However, that's not how the story was told.
- devnullbrain 3y agoYou wouldn't be annoyed by spending 6 months in jail? You must be old!
- incompatible 3y agoIt would perhaps be an interesting new experience, when interesting new experiences are hard to find. But it's probably one of those things that seems more interesting in theory than it turns out to be in practice, and I'd get tired of it after a few days.
