Even employees of those companies can't get help when they need it. I've seen a case where an employee's account was incorrectly banned (or well that was their assumption) and they still couldn't get through to any of th

'dark' has been used in psychology forever to refer to such traits. There's no evidence these terms were used in the actual construction of the test, so not sure what your point is - it's an online test, mostly for fun a

How is this not a threat in the EU or anywhere? Yes it's made worse by the litigious nature of the US, but that's beside the point IMO. The sender is clearly implicating that there will be consequences for not responding. Even if

You're wrong. The reaction to the email and apology from Princeton is proof of that, but there are also very few people here agree with you. I'm not a lawyer or a business man and I read the email as a clear legal threat. I had an

Not really, these statistics arguments are inane. A bathtub you have control over may not be especially risky. The stat itself probably includes unsupervised kids, elderly, etc. Take those out because they don't apply to me. You don&#x

Why do you need you change the "trolling dynamic" for people that aren't affected by it / don't care? And how does this really even address the issue at hand, won't they just move to the comments?
