The U.S. has purchased more than 1,330 terminals from SpaceX, while SpaceX “donated” 3,670 terminals. However, the USAID is paying $1,500 for each terminal, while it normally costs $600. Knowing that the military is interested in the termin

You are missing my point, or I'm unable to convey it: If your brand-new car comes with a by design defective (and illegal) airbag or a by design frame which breaks after a few hundred miles and this results in a death, you won't b

I'm not sure if that's true. I might be mistaken, but I think European companies have to abide by GDPR even for non-eu personal data. But let's say it is, then still Google should make that very clear or even adapt its script

Sure, but that is not what Google is advertising, and it should be Google's responsibility to inform users about that. Exaggerated example: If I would buy a car which by design isn't road legal, and this design flaw would cause an
