People pay $0 to Google/Meta/Twitter/TikTok for their base level offerings, and their privacy policy is valid to discuss and criticize. Does it somehow become less important just because they are also getting paid money? Peop

So he stole stuff in 2022 at a low point, and now his victims are going to be paid 30% the cost of what it would take to rebuy it? That's "repaid in full" in your mind? Losing 70% of their BTC?

There are reasons to publish a press release. Maybe you think Bitcoin (and other POW mining) is destroying the environment and you want to shut down the entire ecosystem instead of profiting from it. Maybe you prefer to be famous for an int

The article quotes has a 15,000 unit delta after closing a loophole, not after banning short-term rentals. The article also claims enforcement on Craigslist, Facebook Marketplace, etc. is still lacking.

OpenAI is supplying the software underlying the productization. I would consider it far more likely that Meta or Google releases free software that becomes the new standard than that AMD/ARM/Intel manage to steal a significant amo
