It's really really not. Cloudflare has the appropriate method to contact the owner of a domain behind it's anonymization: https://domaincontact.cloudflareregistrar.com/bobdahacker.co... DMCA is NOT a contact form.

Just because it's the tool they have doesn't legitimize the use of a copyright takedown just to take down information they do not like. DMCA is specific and in theory limited (though many companies abuse it) the proper channel for

It's pretty common for your vision to revert somewhat back to needing glasses over the span of a couple years. Usually it's still better than it was but often natural aging and a bit of regression combined means you still wind up

It hasn't lowered it because tech keeps inventing new ways to burn hideous amounts of power; first it was crypto mining on PoW chains now it's AI training. Renewables aren't the problem.

I'm not sure they're saying it's wrong more that the change was imposed externally by the victorious union rather than actually being arrived at so the question was never really settled. Looking at the history it looks clear
