It's up there with being forced to install random extensions to view any website. You trust the endpoint, not arbitrary middlemen they decide to bring into the transaction. You don't need to look far to find a reason to abhor this

Laws are mutable. Men aged 25 to 60 are subject to conscription under martial law in Ukraine. Yugoslavia did the same in the 30s, conscripting everyone 21 to 50 before turning Communist. Japan widened it to 18 to 60 by the time they lost WW

This is "let's you and him fight" logic. We've already given Israel almost $400 billion. Subrogate them for Palestinian reparations instead of billing everything to us like a teenage girl let loose at the mall with Daddy

This happens to me when I inherit phone numbers previously flagged for fraud, then try to sign up for new services. My email is clean (I'm not a fraudster) but they ban me on sight based on association with a bad number since I never b

You're not wrong. The entire cybersecurity industry is a joke. You cannot play defense forever. You can only dig a bunker so deep, walls so thick, and areas so compartmentalized, before you have dug your own tomb and suffocated inside

Just use Sefaria for the Old Testament. Jews put a few thousand years of effort into translation and interpretation. The whole thing is even hosted on GitHub. They would know more than anyone else what they meant when they wrote it. https:
