I'd say they've already embraced genetically modifying animals and now most likely humans. There's a lot we don't know about in China considering their secrecy and control of information.

What I'd like to see is if there's any other social media pages on the other side of the political spectrum that have been blocked.

See, alt-right is such a subjective term. I've seen people say that wearing a hat with "MAGA" on it is alt-right. I've also seen people say that opinions like "we want an entire race of people locked up and punished

I wouldn't say they're abusing the right to free speech, they're taking full advantage of it. If you don't like what they're saying, you have every right to not listen to it, promote it yourself, and you also have t

I don't have to care about if they make money or not. That's not my business. If they want to make money, they'll shift to other profit models that don't involve intrusive tracking and annoying advertisements.

If you take away the right for anti-vaxxers (or climate change deniers in the OP's case) to talk about things on a public platform where they're actively ridiculed, they're going to go underground and create their own communi

I really don't think it's up to these companies to decide what and what not to keep on their platforms. I can understand that they're a private company and therefore they can make their own decisions about what they want, but

Not responsible, but "contributing to". It's a natural process of the earth, but I don't deny we're rapidly accelerating it out of control.

That's really depressing that you think that way. That way of thinking is pretty dangerous. I know it's a "slippery slope", but thinking that certain people shouldn't express their opinions on things in a public pla

Remember everyone - if you're looking to buy any cheap surveillance/camera gear and you're smart enough to block it from phoning home to the dirty communistic reds, you better buy it very soon and quickly as most cheaper surv

From what I can recall, the reason why the USBC to DP adapter isn't working on the 2018 models is that the macbooks now have special end to end encryption (read: DRM and forced market penetration) to only allow you to use "apple a

Well yeah, it's literally a survey and it can be any answer you want. It's not to verify anything other than the guise of "if you don't know when it was signed then you're not an informed american and your opinion d

I can bet my absolute bottom dollar that the money is frozen, but they're still making interest on it. Stolen is more appropriate here.

I'm not saying it's capitalisms fault at all here - I would arguably say that what CBS and many other companies are doing is not true capitalism in the first place.

It's a bit telling when a media giant like CBS can't strike a happy medium by you know - both not censoring it in the US and censoring it in china - instead, choosing to censor the whole thing outright on the entire platform. It&#

I would say the best compromise would be something along the lines of having to send them government ID (which brings up a whole other ball of wax with privacy/data retention issues) - most teenagers might get a drivers license at 15-1
