If you feel that the company you are getting porn from isn't respecting your privacy and your privacy is important, don't get porn from them. The bill restricts distribution of porn to kids. It's up to the distributor to figu

When there is a war there is no credible information. Lying is not only seen as morally justified but as your duty because your life and your compatriot's lives are on the line every second of every day of the conflict.

When I do code reviews I always try to find something to comment on, even if it is just a optional suggestion or question. If the code review system has a lot of approvals from me without comments in the code review system I suspect it will

You're right. I'm abusing the word "truth" and "works". But you get a clearer picture and avoid the most obvious attempts to mislead.

In your example you looked at sources from two different sides of the debate and correctly identify the omissions and irrelevant information. To me that says that looking at the two different sides and judging their arguments to arrive at

It was amazing to see skepticism and criticism of big pharma become forbid during COVID with many citizens happily shaming, ostracizing, and censoring others. And then to see it suddenly be allowed again. Extremely fascinating.

When you print a magazine or newspaper space is limited. Lower quality content is cut. With web publishing there is no cap on space. You can throw up garbage that wouldn't have made it as a letter to the editor. And if it gets clicks t

We don't have the mental bandwidth or responsiveness to perceive reality. Our brains use shortcuts to observe and think. These lead to errors. We didn't need to be perfect to get to this point. Just good enough to beat the environ

You seem to be suggesting that humans are capable of perceive objective truth for non trivial things. I say that we aren't. And given that, you are better off believing the lie that helps you or makes you feel good instead of the one t

Your post is a tautology because you define "wrong" as breaking the law. Yes, of course, if a company is not breaking the law they are not breaking the law. And if we want them to stop doing what they are doing we would benefit fr

This was covered in the book Salt Sugar Fat: How the Food Giants Hooked Us (2013). It's featured in the book. Odd that the only way you'd know, other than reading the book is by reading comments users left about the book. Tobacco
