Good, so use those as an example of how bad it is, not the car moving forward a little and the driver stopping it before anything bad happens.

Exactly, and you aren't consenting to that behavior. Knowing it happens is different than giving consent to do it.

That's a weird way to say you consent to other drivers being drunk on the road.

I can think of 3 distinct styles of red lights in my town alone. One is too glossy and quite difficult for even me to see in certain lights.

They also don't consent to dangerous behavior from other drivers. The world is messy and the article is about a trial to judge exactly what you're talking about.

Your point boils down to a "what if" though. If it's as dangerous as you make it, then you should be able to show plenty of examples where actual harm is happening. Showcase those.

The privately owned car owners that offer a public good without following ADA will get sued. It should even be relatively easy to find the owner through the license plate.

Wanting a sell at a certain price doesn’t mean you want to sell at a lower price. The desire to sell is often directly correlated to the price. If someone offered me double for our families house, I’d sell. If they offer me slightly over

And that’s the point. If I sell you my used car and find out you paid with stolen funds, I’m not going to get cash clawed back, where I could realistically be out my car and money if someone used a digital payment.

I’m confused. You’re under the impression people don’t use stolen cards face to face? The sibling commented about AC service being charged to his stolen card. A credit card is easier to use than a bad check. I’ve never seen anyone take

27 cents a day sounds worse to me. You typically can't pay for 1 day, so it's not really true.

That implies someone can learn what the rules are. Apple is capricious in the enforcement of those overly vague rules.

The people I know going around spending cash for large purchases tend to not be people that are struggling. They just prefer using cash. It doesn't get any simpler than using cash.

No need for people that understand and trust the systems you used. That doesn't mean everyone understands how to do what you said, but they can count cash just fine.

What about clawbacks? If someone uses a stolen account to pay me, can that bank get the money back after I've sold the goods?

> So you need to be convicted by a court and the government needs to be able prove the money was obtained from illegal sources? The way you read laws isn't how the enforcers need to read it. That isn't a US specific issue.

Similar laws in the US have readily morphed into we're going to hold it until you prove it's not from illegal sources. Googling it will provide many examples.

People have been talking about the need for higher interest rates for a decade. 2020 happened and they dropped them, again. That caused the people saying we needed higher rates to continue to say we need higher rates. The fact they were s

Most cars have a window frame and don’t need to worry about lowering the window. There are plenty of other cars that engage the window down on the lever though, so no, it’s not a technical issue. The only issue I can think of if you just

Trump both railed against the low rates at the end of the Obama presidency and then railed against raising them when he took office. The idea that it was a sudden event that caused rate hikes is only seen by someone not paying attention to
