Not to defend google but the problems they are having now to access their own google play are the same problem a scammer would have to go do it. It does not look like a perfect balance, but they apparently err on the security side.

While ideologically coherent this position is inconsistent with another fact: it should be illegal to push people to commit crimes. We could design strongly addictive porn that would significantly increase the market for production of actua

If I can give my uninformed and probably lacking opinion the only reasonable definition of CP should revolve around crimes outside of the digital world. (Don't take this too literally) It is for sure CP if it involves actual child abus

Sadly the line would still be blurry. Fully clothed photos of kids are CP depending on the site where you find them for example. It is "easy" to block everything that could be CP, but that would include photos of children in diap

I believe in many places it is illegal to distribute even a novel with explicit CP. A relevant note is the distinction between production, distribution and possession (both directly or indirectly) when talking about corner cases. A 14 years

Nope, if I hide cocaine in your house the crime is mine. If person X send person Y unsolicited CP with the intention of calling the police on them I am pretty sure X is committing a crime. It might be hard for Y to prove this though.

Inequality is way deeper than money; finding blame in capitalism is alright, if you want to fight inequality and corruption you have a wildly different enemy than mere money

This is completely irrelevant and misses the point. A counterexample would be someone from a poor background dropping from college to found a startup.

The fact that JSON.stringify uses double quotes is slightly in favour of using single quotes in handwritten code

That is irrelevant here, the point is how long does it take to distinguish two consecutive inputs as distinct.

Good for you. Still I can assure you that you won't be able to convince a dozen manufacturer that care about brands to think the same.

It is not weird, just because it is now independent it does not mean they cannot collaborate or that Mozilla wont help them in restricted but significant ways.

Right, indeed I think that in this situation eating the salad does not prevent you from criticizing the party. But this is the point, you were "forced" to pay for something and you would be okay with not getting it. If only the pe

I completely agree, but I also believe that it could be relevant to keep in mind the difference between what ads are right now and what they could be. If Mozilla can grow a small but reliable advertisement space and impose significant restr

Obviously a software should not be just a giant chum-box, there are no kind of upsides to that. Still I do not understand why everyone should keep a mile away from them and be shamed for trying to ameliorate the bad sides of internet advert

My point is that ads are essentially the only way to gain visibility for a lot of products. The fact that internet ads are in such an harrowing situation is a consequence of perverse incentives on ads delivery and reliance on clickbait titl

> It was not a paid placement or advertisement. I would like that people were more explicit in why they despise ads. For me it is because they are unsecure, often outside the control of the site owner and heavily rely on tracking. For a

Generally because stating it as "being forced to pay" often comes with a hint of it being wrong. So the question could have been: do you think we should have free/socialized streets/hospitals? If not how do you think th

Why "on the other hand"? That the number of programmer increased is just to show that the industry changed and is now incredibly bigger.

Almost nothing is pure escapism. Most games that have little plot or content have a deep social nature (fortnite, LoL, online Call of Duty). Also being "honest" or "constructive" does not mean being "heavy". T

It is a discussion just by its setting. Into it you can read clues on how the author or the community perceive some stuff. But it is not meant in any specific way to communicate a point, or to be a critique or prisons, or even to just make

> Europe the lowest level to adopt a law is the state This does not really makes any sense. Scotland has a parliament, in Italy some regions have special local powers, and I believe many other countries have various kinds of exceptions.
