They might have the power to, but they don't exercise it[1]. Also, this is about phone as in physical device; it doesn't grant them the right to access the (encrypted) data, does it? 1. Fun fact: the Queen has the power to execut

This might be simply because Rashists tend to keep to Telegram and other "non-prohibited" media.

Nobody is searching your phone on UK border. It’s pretty much unheard of in this part of the world.

What you describe is probably the least efficient way to learn math - or anything else for that matter - because you’re trying to learn things you can’t, at that point and for a while afterwards, reason about. They don’t have connection to

At the time Pascal’s Wager was the general assumption. Which doesn’t change the fact that it’s false - same as this one.

“The popular image of NKVD is mostly untrue; in reality most of their victims have not been brutally murdered”. I’m sorry, but this is just Christian whitewashing.

Wait until you read about Guantanamo - in modern days, not medieval times.

You can’t have human-like thought processes without human-like upbringing. Humans need to “bootstrap” from society. Do you know why happens to kids who grow up without other humans?

One fundamentally wrong assumption here is the part about superseding Neanderthals. We didn’t supersede thousands of other species. There is no reason to believe humans would get superseded, we’re just too useful. It’s more likely we’ll b

The card issuers offer (due to being forced to by law) much better protection: they cancel transactions made this way.

I wonder why that electronics is actually there. I'd rather expect something pyrotechnic, some contraption out of delay fuses. Is there a source that explains what needs to happen under the hood that requires electronics?

Problem is, at least in US, the idea of fighting child pornography has been weaponised by Christian child groomers - the purity balls and child marriages folks. So when someone displays similar pattern, like Patreon reportedly does, it&#x2
