That's all beside the point. Hardware belongs to the user and should be under the user's control. Treacherous computing should be highly taboo and illegal.
The "sustainability" of Disney's profits are not important. To suggest otherwise on a site literally named Hacker News is comical.
- eklavya 2y agoWhy would bringing up sustainability of any business be comical at Hacker news? How do you make money? Why should it not be for free? Your sustainability is important? We agree on hardware belonging to the user by the way.

If that freedom makes e.g. Disney business model unsustainable, then that business model is itself incompatible with the ethos.
- HeatrayEnjoyer 2y agoYou're still missing the point, and I believe intentionally so. > We agree on hardware belonging to the user by the way. You absolutely do not or you would not engage in the work you do. Actions speak louder than words. Being dishonest only makes it even worse.
