In addition to the cookie privacy pop-over when viewing that site, I (as an American) am just amazed how regulated the internet is in Europe compared to the USA. Is there an argument why we would want it any other way?

Network share, the possibility that a client wrote files while the AV software was disabled, etc I always felt the same way about daily/weekly scans. How would anything get there if your client, server, etc all have AV? At that point i

The American V8 was a high performance product at an entry level price. During the last couple years the Dodge twins got ridiculously expensive (the Challenger 392 is now almost as expensive as the Hellcat was in 2016). The problem with the
