I did read the article, twice. I can't figure it out. That is why I asked. How is your response polite?

I disagree, I think it is. I don't see what right of anyone is infringed by my exercise of speech. And even if there was, why would that right be absolute, and not also be balanced by my right to speech? I'm sorry but my rights do

They could just use something else, instead of using Facebook while complaining about it all the time how they don't want to use it because it monetizes their eyeballs. Seems to me like using something else would be easier, or at least

But this is talking about 2030, not 2100. I guess the question is, if sea level rise stopped completely today, would there be no problem in 2030?

What makes it fair and reasonable and does whatever rationale you use here not open up the door to further nativism? I mean if it is fair and reasonable that Indian transactions should be stored and processed in India, is it not also fair a
