Big Internet have to lean on regs in order to shut down competition.
Big Taxi are leaning on regs to shut down competition.
Since we couldn't stop lobbying and such in the former, we decided to take it out of everyone's hands and put it in gov't's hands.
I don't think Big Taxi has enough muscle to make gov't do the monopolizing for them, but if it comes down to that, we may very well start demanding an initiative to have Public transportation developed, with optimists projecting cheap service as a result.
If you can prove an absence of any physical result, then the situation is indistinguishable from an empty house by the currently-understood metrics of reality.
I have no problem with such a scenario. I couldn't; I'd have no way to know. You might have to bend the laws of physics to achieve it, though. Best get started.
The owners of imaginary property can't even tell if they're being violated. Their metric is conceptual, cultural even: Failure to oblige an entitlement they gave themselves in the first place.
For all I know, a ghost does inhabit my house. Or several. The fuck do I care?
Holding up "I thought of it first" as a paper wall to command the universe, indefinitely, strikes me as futile if not naive. Shout morals if you like, but reality listens closer to logistics. You might want to indulge it in the present, but it's a ridiculously impractical model going forward. Not to say that I have an immediate solution.
Even with respect to morals, I tend to put more priority on people who lose control of their possessions, not people who want illusional control of "their" creations.
Websites can post, at users, any legal material they wish.
Users can curate, of what is available, what their computer displays.
Unless either of those two facts change, everything else is details that will persist or substitute in some form. So I'll oblige the article: "Yes, they're dumbfucks (better incompetence than malice) betting on bigger dumbfucks to do ruling."

On the bright side, this will help ward off stray thoughts like "but what if I want news from it..." in the future. Even so, please keep your socnets within their own shit domains.
The game invites players to commit homicidal violence against anything resembling an obstacle. You could argue there's sadistic violence against Stuff In Your Way, particularly in reference to the torture scene, but again this is against any opponent or human, not the (fictional) women. You could even commend the indifferent equality.
This is hype and PR, dressed up with whatever victim buzzwords are the flavor of the month. And anyone dropping Lovejoy's Law is an idiot; children can't buy the game, it got rated 18+ in AU. Call the game a Terrorist Trainer, it'll be less bullshit.
> if their drives have mail/chats of them asking for moar new 'material'
This isn't "guilty of being pedo", it'll be Conspiracy (To Commit) or somesuch. Yes, it's going to be illegal. Yes, we have a crime for it. No, the crime is not "suspected pedo"
There's a fair bit of confusing rambling about forums I don't quite follow. Still pretty sure the irony of posting them in this forum will persist, though.
The USA too has armchair derps that will readily engage anyone on news/politics/controversials, and offer their personal opinions at the first chance. They long predate SJWs. I imagine every country has them, online or off. Because human nature.
And I'll take an hour of "caught my dog burping on video" over blognoise any day.

OT: When [proxy] tools can directly circumvent something, it's blatantly broken. Either yield on it or waste endless resources trying to whackamole the workarounds forever.
When proxy tools merely circumvent in a ethical or conceptual sense, you're still writing bullshit laws or rules. If things like a remote camera/viewer or deadmanswitch get around your policy or ruling or copyrightlulz, you had something retarded to begin with.

Yeah, bullshit, you might think you want your grunts to fix shit and do it the "better way" when you're not looking, but just an hour ago I saw you yell at one about not using the "box flattening area".
We've been hiring drones, we've been making them work as drones, are you surprised the schools are churning out memorization-bots now? Are you surprised that mindless tasks are becoming automated? Repurposed to software or robo-hardware?
They'll howl posturingly. They'll make noise about "deceptive user practices" (to say nothing of their own) but won't really care about whatever small fraction of savvy people are doing it.
Well, as long as it requires enough savvy. If it becomes extremely easy or automated, they'll start putting actual resources behind the noise.
Tweak a couple of words and the above two paragraphs become "same shit new day" about ignoring the clever few who dodge the suckertraps.

This is a meaningless phrase they'll throw at anything.

If the money is what you consider the biggest potential impact, then yeah, you're not worth discussing priority with.

Shouting "treason!" isn't just analogous, the definition is actually similar.
I miss the days of planting drugs in someone's bag. At least that took a little more work than effortless accusations that are instantly valid.
