I don't think that majority of people are opposed to the idea that people who need healthcare should not get if they can't afford it. It's more that there are different ways of achieving that and there are different degrees o

FLoC will still give a lot of info about you. A thousand people is not a lot. Plus, because FLoCs change you can track the changes and potentially figure out more about your user. The most important part is that FLoCs will be accessible to

The fact that Parler did not anticipate this is crazy. How do you decide to build Parler and than tie yourself to AWS?

That's my point :) Arguing that because this would exclude some small number of projects does not make sense if from the get go you exclude a large number of open source projects.

It bad to violate human rights to comply with local laws of a country. But it's even worse to do that and claim that you are upholding the human rights. What they should do is either: be honest and say that they comply with local laws
