I'm going to say no. He's not telling the government what to do. He's trying to make something illegal (aka against the law).
He's trying to cite emergency powers:
International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.)
And I think it would be awfully hard to call this a national emergency for us. On the other hand, it was Barack Obama that called it an emergency, and this new executive order merely cites it: https://www.federalregister.go...
So yes, these executive orders are getting out of hand.
It can also be no-fault if you prefer. Not every pedestrian death is avoidable by the driver - especially with sudden moves and a high speed limit paired with obscured viewing from parked cars.
In Illinois, pedestrians only have the right-of-way at a marked crosswalk. And even then, they must clearly start crossing early enough to give drivers time to react/slow/stop. Drivers aren't technically required to stop for someone who hasn't decided whether to start crossing yet or not. It's legally allowed to be more cautious and courteous, but not required from a liability standpoint.
Oh, right. However, the UI is the only thing that needs to come from fast.com. Everything else can come from netflix-753.vo.llnwd.net or whatever they want. And Netflix can make all its clients load the fast.com page before streaming and pretend to be a speed test if it wants. Though it would be easier to implement a delayed throttle that lets the first few minutes in at full speed. On the other hand, video is requested in chunks and sometimes behind carrier-grade NAT or home LAN. It would be difficult to be selective.
Your math is wrong. All you have to do to prove it is to run Wireshark or a switch with a promiscuous port and log how much data has passed through your connection. Or download the same title for offline viewing in full HD quality. Those bandwidth numbers match up with a number of HD torrents of high quality and carefully tuned encoding.
It would fit the same profile and no - SNI requires the traffic to be decrypted. If you're able to distinguish that, then the encryption is utterly broken.
They have loads of legacy code in their codebase to support XP. Something drastic changed in their hardware-accelerated UI rendering that requires Windows 7 or higher to run. I wish I could remember the details. Someone could fork it and backport security fixes, but wouldn't be able to easily backport new functionality.
Neither would I, but they're hardly the first to promise something that they may never deliver on. The bigger question than whether they can even do it is what happens when their funding runs out and they shut down all their storage facilities.
Well sure it's a mind-uploading service. It's just that they've postponed the uploading part until they figure out how to actually do that (or whether it's even possible).
If someone walks into your pizza parlor and accusing you of running a child sex trafficking ring, you can ask them to leave -- and that's not censorship
Of course it's censorship. It's just that it's a perfectly fine form of censorship.
The sudden injection of "antifa" into the discussion, with stories of "antifa" demonstrations and counter-rallies was clearly initiated by somebody who isn't familiar with American slang or even English pronunciation.
No, it came about more because people don't want to just come out and say they are pro-fascist. So they are against the people against it instead.
People willing to moderate browse lower. I typically browse at 0 or -1, but I rarely moderate because I want to fully participate in discussion. And respond to ACs. Those responses tend to get AC posts upmodded as a result, so it's not all for nothing.

"Banning" cryptocurrency is akin to trying to ban Math. Yeah, good luck with that.
Banning math is not exactly new.

If Best Buy's own web site wasn't terrible, they'd just be selling to their own showroom customers.
What is this "Go online?" Is it clicking the dial button on your dial-up connection? Is it web? Is it email? Spotify? Netflix?
Both are the ISP slowing traffic. Intentional sabotage of peering link capacity is no different effectively than throttling.

Both are gamed by the ISP and have the same result. It doesn't really empower me one way or the other to know the difference
That's nothing to do with civilized. It's about population density and the country not being on its own continent.
DVD is of a lot higher quality than a lot of my attempts to stream HD content from Netflix. And I don't even live in AU.

OK, fine. You can't correctly say it.

Of course it's censorship. It's just that it's a perfectly fine form of censorship.
somewhat specific offshoot of the main Christian branch.
Despite the common usage of the term, it's actually a very general, broad classification.
Do teenage girls go to the same concerts as 80 year old women? They do not.
Bad example

The tradition hasn't been as consistent over time as you think.
He can censor whatever the fuck he wants to.
Sure, but you can't just say it wasn't censorship.
A republic is a democratic form of government. It's not a direct democracy. The general term "democracy" typically refers to both.
