TBH I can't see any problem with this approach.

Are there even any proper OS frameworks any more?

HN explicitly breaks EU law. You can ask them to delete your comments because of GDPR, and they will tell you they don't follow European law so they won't so that.

Lots of countries are like that though. America has an unusually free system where anyone can do anything for better or worse, but Walmart failed in Germany by ignoring all the local processes like employee protections. (But I hear Aldi

Exchanges are banned from trading Monero, that makes it hard to get, but they can't really stop any private transactions, by the design. There are also onion sites that claim to swap one for the other.

It's usually illegal in the counterparty's state. If I'm in the EU and I sell weapons to Iran, Iran isn't breaking Iranian law, but I'm breaking EU law. Iran is also breaking EU law but that's irrelevant to the

There was one before Bitcoin called Liberty Reserve. It was a website. You could mail cash to some guy and he'd put it in your account and you could request cash mailed back to you and you could transfer your balance to other people on

VAT/GST is a direct tax on productive economic activity (as opposed to some proxy like income or capital gains) and I'm sure there are good economic arguments why that's the best kind of tax.

We can separate the two things - the transaction could be surveilled without being a crime. They'd only have a legitimate use for that surveillance data if it was found to be connected with an actual crime. (Of course, like all surveil

As long as we live in this economic system it's important that something creates local jobs.

Is that the original problem or is it already downstream of something?

I don't agree. Stereotypes that are wrong but get reinforced by selective reporting are bad. Let's say a person believes that (to pick an absurd example) all Scottish people are rapists. Every time he reads a headline "Scotti

It's one more anecdote to the anecdata of police being generally useless.

Good old-fashioned "we can do this the easy way or the hard way" extortion. Why should a state want the federal government to just do whatever it wants within that state?

Who is the target audience? Obviously not HN. Is it right to criticise someone for not writing for HN? Radio networks and Internet are both networks. That part is fine. It means surveillance devices either have SIM cards and connect to the

Well why not fix it then?! Except you don't fix homelessness by charging all the homeless people with felonies for engaging in their hobbies (weed smoking) - you do it by working out why the housing economy is so dogshit that so many p

I wonder which opinion inspired him to write this. Given the date, maybe it was something about race politics or coronavirus.

I guess no crime can ever occur then, since you can never prove it wasn't consensual? Oh you were caught in 4k walking down the street smashing every windshield with a crowbar. But how can they prove all the car owners didn't pay

Meta already requires your ID to sign up so hasn't anonymity already ended?

Every political system seems to tend towards fascism though. When it does happen, you'll be glad they're only trying to arrest your alias.

Isn't it happening in the USA right now at borders and it happened before when encryption was a munition?

That's contradictory logic. If you have to parent your children a certain way or else the state will take them away, then you aren't solely responsible, and the state is a nanny state.

California just mandated a simple solution in this style.

Most things that happen at nightclubs are not R-18 either.

So are gambling and cigarettes. As a society we've decided a reasonable compromise is that you can get the freedom to harm yourself at a certain age where you're assumed to understand that you're harming yourself.

How about people belong to neither their parents nor the government, but they still have to be raised in some way by someone?
