From what I recall on the debates about manga ~20 years ago when people were getting in trouble for sexual mangas with young characters, consumers do not escalate their behavior to abuse. There may also be more recent studies. This is def

You are just arguing the requirements are the requirements. Are they as important as stated? Microsoft says so. Everyone here loves and trusts them, right?

Talked about back in the Vista days publicly (I cannot find the articles now) - Microsoft has commitments to their hardware partners to help keep the hardware market from collapsing. So they are not incentivized to keep Win32_Lean_N_Mean, b

There's potentially a lot of files attached and printed out in this fashion. The search on the DOJ website (which we shouldn't trust), given the query: "Content-Type: application/pdf; name=", yields maybe a half doz

Let's check in on how we're doing preventing the tobacco industry from marketing to children. Hmm, candy flavored vapes both for THC and nicotine. Teen psychosis from THC. Popcorn lung. Not so good it seems! https://

My exact point. Our current moment seems to be us being happy to expand societal harms for whatever reason. I'd hazard a guess it's our political system getting more and more susceptible to lobbying money.

And why not? AAA game companies have been reported to have psychologists on staff to help make their games more addictive. We don't police big tobacco very well on making their products more addictive. We seem to be fine with expandi

Your definition of "very high" costs likely don't align with what you think of when you think of "very high" government spending. NASA's 25 billion dollar budget for 2025 was a paltry ~.4% of the total governm

The fact that so many things in the world work like this is the reason for the continued appeal of heist movies. Those always contain clever bits of social engineering and confidence scams which move the plot along - and they are as believ

> Inconveniencing unrelated persons is not nearly as clearly legal as you seem to claim it to be. It seemed to be OK for guests at diners in the 60's. But - I'm sure that's different somehow. It always is.

Exactly. The zip gun people are mostly just weird nerds, and not professional assassins. The latter seems to be doing it the old fashioned way which leaves no traces - buy cheap gun, file off serials, throw it in the river after. Zip guns

Facebook messenger similarly claims to be end to end encrypted, and yet if it thinks you are sending a link to a pirate site, it "fails to send". I imagine there are a great many blacklisted sites which they shadow block, despite

I bought a hardware password manager a while back and the bulk load tool sent all your creds to a cloud service. I have not used it since, and sent the manufacturer a nasty note. It was the Ethernom Beamu, company now defunct.
