Guess what - political movements change over time. We don't define left and right depending on where a party sits in the French parliament either.

Ethnic cleansing is at the core of every ethnostate. You can't have, say, a racially German state, if you don't do something to all the non-Germans.

Idk man, that sounds like the reason is antisemitism. Why else would you oppose giving your land to Israel?

The way things are going right now, the IDF is trying to cause the total destruction of Israel. Making more enemies when you're already surrounded by enemies (that you made) is rarely a way to any kind of survival. There is only one th

The problem with GDPR and cookie banners is that GDPR allows the cookie banners to be worded so indirectly. "To improve our service we share collected information with 5723 partners..." If the law would force them to say "Do

This is the website of a bunch of rich capitalists who got rich by doing capitalism. Of course you can't call the owners of the website evil on that website.

The whole purpose of these apps is to only run on certain specified devices, so PWA won't work.

Also according to at least one German court! (AVM Vs I don't remember. The lawsuit was about home wireless routers.)

The law compelling you to make your products hackable is called "right to repair". Without this law, if my toaster breaks, my only option is to buy a new toaster. But if I'm allowed to change the toaster, I can fix the toaste

No, actually anti-tivoization makes perfect sense, even in your example, and if you make this toaster then you are simply an evil anti-freedom company. If you're afraid that modifying the software will make the toaster overheat, then i

Very US-centric comment. The US can't force entities of an entirely separate country to share technology.

I don't want to see what any of today's companies would come up with to replace the desktop. Microsoft has tried a few times and they all sucked.

Phone UIs are still screen UIs, but they are not desktop UIs, and that's not because of the shape of the device.

Sounds like a dead market. Nobody needs to create content any more now that we have AI.

That did happen and the world is a much darker place.

Some cars don't come with keys any more - you have to use your phone and the cloud. Which is good, right? One less thing to lose.

And it was much less than the propaganda on social media, wasn't it?

There is one. It's called the RIRs.

Same reason they gift you a book instead of a can of petrol. By giving you a gift card, they're forcing you to buy something sold at a specific store chain, not to buy more petrol.

No, states can't do violence because they don't have hands, so they can't hold guns or bats. The violence is done on behalf of the state by some of the people it convinces, mostly police officers and soldiers.

That is not what happened to the Graphene project recently. Basically, there have been a string of anonymous secure phones designed and marketed directly to high-ups in organised crime. Encrochat, Sky ECC, Anom, Phantom Secure, probably mor
