Well, I can answer that with a question. Are you going to look up John Oliver under comedy/talk, or under the news section of your cable/sat guide? Contrary to your desires, 'journalistic integrity' does not apply. Taking it seriously is a personal issue, nothing to do with the show itself.
Well, in that case, I can say you are posting in favor of censorship, which is a horrible thing to do. Why does it matter what people think about the show?
Anyway, you said it right here: When people use it to be informed on current events it ceases to be a "comedy show"
third party service doing an unauthorized Quick! Hide In Your Safe Space! hatchet job on their art.
Total nonsense. That's like saying I can't have my car painted a different color the manufacturer does not offer. If I pay somebody to modify something I purchased, I am entitled to the modifications. It's that simple.
That's the cool thing about authority. Without followers, it doesn't exist. Imagine the power of just turning your back. It's the followers that are your enemy, not the 'leaders'.
Isn't the EU there to unify the rules (of which privacy is a part, not that this would pass), to facilitate trade amongst its members? It's more of an interstate commerce commission that suffers from mission creep. Goes with the territory.
Doesn't anybody call the Better Business Bureau anymore? Rumor had it that they were pretty effective at shutting this shit down. Or have they been gutted too?
Let's look at Wells Fargo, with all its money laundering and phony accounts, and they are doing better than ever, just like all the other crooked banks. Extortion works, eh? However CenturyLink, whoever thy are, is a two bit player. They can't bring down the economy like Wells Fargo can. So if the story is true, somebody might actually go to jail for it, but I doubt it. This kind of fraud is pretty standard stuff.

I can get a Quarter Pounder and a chocolate shake for a dollar now, right?
No thanks, Zuck. We don't want to be "together" in tribes lorded over by Facebook Review Teams
2 billion users say otherwise, sorry to say
A 'free pass'? To do what?

Okay great, they're a 'news outlet' (based on your definition). Now what? What does it have to do with the price of rice?

So the analogy still stands.
That's like saying a carving knife used to commit a murder is no longer a kitchen utensil. Can we sue the maker for the bloodletting?
You can even spoof a keyboard. May as well call it a day
Yeah, Apple, Amazon, and Alphabet.. And that's just the A's
Personally, I think a high voltage coil in the seat would be more effective, provided a video is automatically uploaded.
Jobs hated context menus because they hid functionality in unpredictable ways
Yeah, like Ctrl-Click...
I would be really curious to see what they think of me.
Sorry, you are #198,000,001, so you didn't make the list.

That funny. I asked the very same question. I wonder if she would get in legal trouble.
Can I pay the maid to push the button for me?
The ad blocker I use is developed by a third party. I suppose the difference that it is running on my computer.
We use ad blockers on the internet. Isn't this the same thing?
Don't believe it then.
Actually, like all the others, they are dependent on money
The truth is dead...
Think we'll still get kind of service from the FCC now?

How many real problems could we solve with money being wasted on fear-mongering or redundant promotion?
"Waste" is in the eye of the beholder. The question to ask is, Cui bono?
We will always use all the space and time we have.
