I’m less cynical about SCOTUS
Is it cynicism when I’m following their actions and expecting more of the same? The SC makes shit up after the fact and finds ass-pulls to make it sound like the Constitution said that. That’s why, effectively, the POTUS can’t commit crimes as long as they are arbitrarily determined to be “official acts” now. They already announced we’re ruled by kings. How much further need it go?
It’s the most pro piracy argument that even the biggest normies can relate to.
Devout “Disney families,” the kinds with the stickers on their SUVs, may still see that as “stealing the magic.”
I doubt this will stand a court’s scrutiny
Unless it reaches the Supreme Court and in yet another 6-3 decision the corpos get to loot and pillage more with even less accountability.
Google […] a privacy disaster
Googles “piracy disaster”
Gets pinged for targeted marketing and also flagged for IP criminal law prosecution
Google… could be a privacy disaster
I remember having some reservations and skepticism regarding the ongoing good faith of Netflix when it was the new hotness.
I was called, you may have guessed, a Luddite, and told that "it would be bad business" if Netflix fucked people over and that it’d be silly to hold on to physical copies of entertainment media.
Now I’m basically this face to the same people
That’s my take too, though “overambitious perfectionist” still sounds too flattering for what a bumbling narcissist he is.
He even put himself directly into the fiction’s lore as but bigger.
Counterpoint: Star Citizen.
I’m not being snarky there. If there are no deadlines and unlimited feature creep, you get Star Citizen. Or rather, you never get Star Citizen except as a janky hyper-monetized pre-alpha.
Looks like a skin from Cruelty Squad.
“Get educated! and if you don’t, or if you have any disability that makes that ‘education’ impossible, fuck you. If you don’t get ‘educated’ before my holy advocacy somehow conjures up schools to educate you, fuck you. If you can’t afford those schools. Fuck you. Basically just fuck you.”
Your vague sanctimonious calls for “education” can do absolutely nothing for people that already been ripped off, so your sermons are especially condescending to people already ripped off and fucked over by business criminals that you keep making excuses for.
Because of your “fuck the poor, fuck the disabled, get ‘educated’” mantras, I assume your idea of “education” would be grifty privatized schools that are themselves a grift. Just grifts all the way down, because you’re running interference from the start for why it is cool and good to rip off disabled people until they can supposedly clear some “education” hurdle that you’d set up in front of people with Alzheimer’s, dementia, and much much more.
Just admit you’re LARPing as Patrick Bateman. It’d be less cringe at this point.

I certainly feel smarter in comparison to you.
You haven’t expressed your Dunning-Kruger fantasies of personal exceptionalism in any way that convince me. I just see Reddit-tier signal markers like hatred of the poor, the disabled, and the otherwise disadvantaged.
I’ve been advocating education the entire thread
“Education” with the implication that anyone that fails that vague “advocacy” and anyone who is fucked over before your “advocacy” has any results should just suffer for the personal profits of grifters and con artists.
and you’re claiming that I just want the status quo.
Because that is the status quo, you disgusting clown. 🤡
I disagree on HOW it should be stopped.
You want so very badly for grifters and scammers to go unpunished and have unrestricted to vulnerable people that you’ll proclaim the answer is “education” while even then you want so very badly for anyone who gets preyed upon to have no protection and no recourse.
You disgust me.
Doubt. They’ll find some other money trap to fall into in a week unless they’re taught to actually be smarter about their finances.
So you’re saying nothing should ever even be attempted because the status quo is as good as it gets (because you got yours) and apathy makes you feel cool and smart?
Every individual is supposed to do their own research and be savvy regarding scams and ripoffs or else they deserve to be robbed with no recourse and no penalty for the robbers.
Another Torment Nexus that is already well underway.![emoji bazinga bazinga](https://hexbear.net/pictrs/image/d72fe305-4708-4075-ab62-5448564e4479.png)
