Who are you and why are you posting on/.? Dude, here is conspiracy and the-evil-companies-want-to-swindle-us-out-of-our-money, sensible arguments is next door.
Regulations mean jack shit if overstepping them isn't fined in a way that makes those that overstep them rethink that option. If I make 1000 bucks breaking a law and the possible fine is 100 bucks, don't expect me to follow the law. If the fine is lower than the revenue, it's not a fine, it's part of the calculation.
Often you don't really have the choice because you're dependent on a piece of software that isn't readily available on other platforms.
Not to mention that most people using Win10 probably don't really care what OS they use. It's less a conscious decision but more one of a lack of information.
Because the states ain't dumb. They know exactly that there are no borders on the internet, and companies will go to whatever state offers them the best conditions for their business.
Killing net neutrality will only accomplish one thing: Places that don't take action themselves and implement it on a state level become noncompetitive.
Run away? Heck, why? They have a very well paying job (not just for NKor levels) and when they're home, they are basically above any and all laws as long as they don't piss off anyone higher up in the hierarchy.
Imagine you, as a US citizen, could have all the hookers and blow you want, could treat everyone but politicians like garbage up to the point of pretty much getting away with murder if you so please and everyone has to do your bidding OR ELSE, because you're simply more valuable than anyone else in the country to the big and mighty, and no pesky "human rights" or constitution getting into your, or their, way.
Something being "popular" still requires that people are not pressed into using it or at least have a choice. Saying Win10 is popular is like saying that the SED of the GDR was a popular party because, yes, there were others (the so called "Blockparteien") but they played no role and you didn't really have a choice, but the SED routinely got 96-99% of the votes, so it must have been insanely popular.
"Popular" means that people WANT something. Not that they're basically forced to do it. Independent of the frequency an activity is done. Else you could say that working is a lot more popular than fucking.
Didn't you get the memo? Statistics or reality mean jack shit, what matters is that if you find out that (insert minority group here) is statistically more likely to do (insert bad thing here), you're WRONG! Axiomatically.
Sorry, but older folks being poorer is a relic of the past. Today, the boomer generation is the "old folks" (which are arguably the richest senior citizens ever, and most likely going to remain it) while "generation internship" is what you find among the younger workforce.

Wait. This makes a lot of sense.

But I can still buy penny stocks, right? And options?
Thank god, not all options to trade in highly volatile investments are banned. Only the ones they don't participate in.
In other words, it gets turned over in the appeal.
If I invest in someone to get rid of someone else, I get charged with murder, too.

You might want to take a look at the "flamethrower" he is selling. This is more like a Bunsen burner with a handle.

Irony or ...?
First, use browsers and plugins that avoid loading such trackers.
Second, use browsers and plugins that send bogus tracking info to poison the data pool that still gets collected.

I would, but my mail-order bride ran away when I took off her ankle chain because she wanted to show me some Kama-Sutra move.
Damn right, so we can't have that. This town is only big enough for one mobster gang!
So... when I want a hooker and get syphilis, it means syphilis is popular?
Wow, who pooped into your corn flakes this morning?
Then why bother trying?
The Winter is gone
The Summer is here

Roughly 100% of them.

Well, judges are mostly old men, so ...

And so on, but I think that should suffice. Pick the publication you are the most inclined to not cry "fake news" about.
