When it comes to speech, piss off Feds should be pretty much your standard response. We're not talking about quarantining antivaccers, that would be, under certain circumstances, be acceptable and in many places (like mine) you can't go with your kids to school or daycare without a vaccine or a doctors reason not to have one.
But as far as education, that's your and your community's primary responsibility. If anti vaccination in your community is reaching deadly numbers a Federal law won't help.
People that forget history are bound to repeat it. And, no I don't agree with anti-vaccers, I think they're morons, but "burning" their books only puts them in the underground.
In the same vein, Europe has the same protections/provisions for its companies like AirBus, Dassault and DuPont where IP theft and global industrial espionage, by and for the state, have been turned many a blind eye.
If you expect nations to not protect their own economy at any cost, you fail to understand the point of national government and politics.
As far as cloud, if you put your data in the hands of Microsoft or IBM I wouldn't expect anyone to even need government involvement to get it.
Actually it's the other way around. All stats show that the more you make the more you steal. It correlates also with how long you've been at the company and thus can "get away with".
So a better economy would translate in higher theft since "the company is doing better now, they can afford some losses".
In the end it's just part of doing business, would you fire your best for taking a pen or a $5 box of pens? Electronics similarly are both insured and replaced through leases at virtually no cost. I've never had electronics disappear through third party theft, but the insurance doesn't go down so an employee needing a replacement at the end of the useful lifespan is better for me in the end.
Amazon basically offers 3 or 4 versions of the same car going from "you rent and maintain it yourself" to "you rent and we maintain and provide a driver for you". However it seems that if you bring your own mechanic and driver, no matter how skillful they are, their drivers and mechanics get consistently and measurably better performance out of the same car depending on the amount of money you pay to them even though they're all supposedly the same cars with the same specs.
It depends though. In most states you can return a 'lemon' for pretty much any reason, even 'not meeting personal expectations' is a valid (argued in court) reason.
In these modern 'open world games' it can, even with fast travel take anywhere from 5-20 minutes before you get to the 'action' part and you're doing repetitive tasks until you meet some internal counter.
Even old 'open world' games like Duke 3D, you had various avenues to get to your goal. In modern games, they program a single path and place to victory and straying from that path doesn't get you anything until you get back to it.
How do you even pay that kind of car off? Why are there no affordable "green" options if it's so much cleaner (less and cheaper energy should translate to lower cost) to produce in solar powered, non-carbon factories.
Why aren't left wing billionaires subsidizing these for us in the 99% if the world will end in 15 years if we don't.
I'm sure you haven't done business with the like of Dell, PeopleSoft, Oracle and IBM. Custom software is expensive, government contracts take years to procure and you won't get paid until years after delivery. In the mean time you have to pay your sales and programmers and engineers.
I can set up about 10 proxies in less than an hour. If I script it and with control over something these "russian hackers" also supposedly have state-side control over - massive international botnets - I could probably get a proxy deep into one or another military or government contractor network.
Seriously, look up "setting up SSH tunneling" or SOCKS proxy. You can go to any modern 'cloud' provider and spin up a few thousand instances across the globe in seconds.
A bit more detail would be nice. Did they shut down the Internet on Russian territory? Probably not, that'd be some hot potato if they were found. If they blocked the IP on the US-side, there are plenty of proxies both in and out of the US to work through.
Either these trolls are very stupid and don't know anything about how the Internet works or this is just another story about how someone blocked an IP address and thinks they saved the world.
when money can be made off it by suing someone. So yeah 'the public' (lawyers) are really interested in privacy. The majority of people never cares or more importantly, understands, how their data is shared as long as it's not embarrassing them personally or they can accrue some benefits of it.
Anyone that has actually used two-wheeled vehicles knows that to safely disable or brake, you do that on the rear wheel, that way malfunctions don't cause you to flip head over.
You don't, keep track of them in a database, but one still has to authenticate the other cryptographically both at time of voting and at verification of the voting without revealing your vote to a third party. There are several papers that have various proofs of concept that would be (relatively) simple to implement.
It's relatively simple to keep track of two datasets (a voter roll and the votes) and prove that your code authenticates the other without having them massively intertwined in code. There should be a very simple bridge between the two that is heavily documented and even someone with minimal coding skill can read.
We know why there is no company that wants to make such simple code, it is not in the best interest of a large government contractor to have fair and honest elections, typically companies are associated with people and parties and changes in that person or party threatens their paycheck.

The WaPo reporter that believed the entire story sans evidence off course. Sounds like some kids in MAGA hats suing doesn't change their garbage tune.
Alzheimer's and pot is today's cancer and caffeine.

Then your community needs to act, not the federal government because my community isn't (as) stupid.
In the same vein, SS actions and Jewish suppression were completely legal in Nazi Germany too.

You're entitled if you think being in the top 10% is 'shitty wages'.

Makes for a good case of the prisoners dilemma. Who steals first and then when it starts, how does it end?

This was in the last 5-10 years.

Fast travel takes you out of the game imho.

Wut? There is no viable battery powered car sub-30k. For the masses, 15k and 150-200 miles is your target

Is it a rich person tax break or a rich person discount? I've lived in full 3 bedroom houses worth the price of that car.
Lemon and warranty laws allow you to return a car anywhere from 4 weeks to 3 months or even longer in some EU jurisdictions.
Not sure whether online sales get around local (sometimes down to city) laws but I'm sure 7 days won't fly in many places.
