Also part of my point is that we do not have to focus on human emission as the only lever. We can also focus on sequestration of natural emission (or sequestration of atmospheric carbon as a whole). Telling people to not emit carbon dioxide

So I definitely prefer this, and this is used to be a sort of unspoken rule in Canadian law. The law just had this bias built into for the "little guy" in the fight. Seems to have changed under the current Führer, at least from a

The issue here is the conflict of interest. They now have an incentive to hoard 0days instead of having a moral responsibility to responsible disclosure. We pay for them (the gov't) to discover these things, and then they fail to prote

Well, my own bias is because it's seen as depraved/pathetic if a man has an AI fantasy girlfriend which gives him a proxy of what he wants, but it's not if a woman reads her bodyweight in romance novels per year. In my experi
