I don't think there's anything wrong with a monopoly that isn't state enforced. Their IP, their servers, why shouldn't they enjoy a monopoly? Absolutely nothing wrong with that. It is when you involve the state in creati

Fair point. I however don't agree fully. One could argue that there's not as much urgency in adjusting quotas for EU and similar allies but they too need to be checked because of the way they treat US co.s especially those in the

I think you should be mad at the whole disgraceful debacle. The expropriator and the recipient of expropriated goods/services are in a collaborative effort to harm you. They're both willing and delighted participants in your demis

Envy is deplorable and there are few to zero things that would justify it. It quite frankly is very strange to see it being somewhat justified or even outright glorified by some here. I'm of the opinion that egalitarianism is not a des

That's incredibly affordable. These guys are impressive. I especially like that they're software centric and they're interested in plugging into as many devices as possible.

Agree. Censorship beyond a sub's mods is largely uncalled for. Sometimes (fewer times than is the case now), banning of some subs could be necessary. I believe that subs are isolated enough that if you don't want to engage with an

I've disabled JS and only enable it in incognito when needed/when mandatory for a particular site. Tedious I know, but a habit I picked up when everyone started autoplaying videos.
