So it’s USA’s fault that Russia became a fascist country and decided to invade?

Of course it is - but it’s a defensive proxy war. The aggressor is Russia, not NATO.

„War against Russia” is a rather strange way to describe defense against Russian invasion.

Your comment is is pure whataboutism. Also: which Chinese efforts? Differently from US and Russia, China hasn’t invaded anyone for quite a few decades.

Doubtful. I find it hard to believe that a country that’s not even capable of manufacturing ordinary cars can maintain and service nuclear weapons.

It never ceases to amaze me how Americans claim China has no human rights, but at the same time claim US - the country with worlds highest incarceration ratio, where police can kill random people with impunity, where convicted child rapists

Not surprising, given how Canada imprisoned Chinese folks on purely political charges. It takes two to cooperate.

That’s only tangentially similar to Inferno, and completely unlike Plan9. Even for Inferno the idea was to make the system flexible, Android is everything but.

I’d propose a JDAM. This war would look a whole lot different if Kremlin ceased to exist.

Now replace “war” with “murder” or “rape”. Are murder and rape “tools to be respected” to you too?

It’s not really more complicated; it’s just that Capsicum implements an actual security model instead of a random hodgepodge, like with seccmp or pledge, and that means one has to fit the application into that model.

Again, no - it would only work if every single one FOSS developer agreed to use it.

So? That doesn’t justify shifting that costs to society. You’re assuming corporations have to be allowed to do whatever they want, because otherwise they would earn less money, and you’re assuming that’s not an acceptable outcome.

"One side of abortion debate" sounds exactly like "one side of the flat earth debate". There's no debate: there's a fringe view of "life from conception" and there's the opposite view founded on

I can think of vastly more humiliating things, like a video of a woman spreading antivax or pro-choice propaganda. And, differently from a blowjob, which is just a religiously motivated prejudice, those acts are actually harmful and evil.

It doesn't - companies can still use FOSS software, just not AGPL. That's pretty much exactly how it works right now.

Can you quote the part that requires CSAM? As for age - it's already there, you can't serve underage content to minors. As for "truthiness" - I'd say this part makes a lot of sense, given the current pandemic of fa

If you look at the proposal, it clearly says this would only apply to (de facto) broadcasters, not to ordinary people; look at the sentence mentioning OFCOM.

I’m not entering credit card info though. And even if I did, it’s not very security-sensitive - in the worst case the bank will give me back my money stolen from the card.

They aren’t in different trust zones, because there’s nothing to trust in either of those. The reason for using different passwords is to minimize the losses when they leak.

If those allegations were true - and even GCHQ admitted it was bullshit - then those backdoors would be demonstrated, like it was the case with Cisco and Juniper.

Huawei _holds_ lots of patents there. It was sanctioned because US couldn’t compete on market terms, not because of alleged “IP theft” - which used to be a normal practice for US companies (and government; there are quite a few stories of

Ethically the company is not a human, and thus doesn’t have any inherent rights. The only rights it can have are those that were granted to benefit society - or because of corruption/lobbying.

This could be easily fixed by introducing a law forcing companies to give out half of company’s shares to the union. The only reason this doesn’t happen is political - peoples votes don’t matter, what matters is company lobbying.
