Because new users are from the OS X and Windows side of computing.
Having to type and use the CLI to get USB working every time is distracting from viewing ads.
More taxes, tents and RV is not for decades is not working out so well.
As the tax rate goes up people was to move to a better city, state. With clean streets and no crime.
Who wants to invest in a city and keep the best workers who are then expected to risk their health and crime to get to work?
The new jobs move to a better city and state. Less tax and happy skilled workers.
Let investors build as many apartments as they want to risk selling and finding rent to pay back their investment.
New tower blocks with underground parking spaces near to new tech jobs?
Demand all new buildings approved in wealthy areas of a city have accept set amount of random poor people?
The gov will pay any rent needed and the poor people get to live in parts of a city that cant afford?
Bank loans for the "poor" so they can buy a home. Even if they cant pay the loan back?
Build gov buildings and fill them with poor people in poor parts of a city. Keeping crime and poverty to very seperate parts of a city.
Have the gov buy random homes for sale over a city and fill each home with poor people to spread the crime and poverty around? Keep buying homes at any price and adding poor people.
Allow homeless people to live in random tents and RV with their waste left all over city streets? Allow open drug use and crime to spread?
Re "free market solving an acute housing problem."
That will at least put more new homes people want and can afford onto the market.
A good start to allow the working poor to get a new first home.
AC when the working poor are living in RV and tent cities its time to rethink decades of gov housing intervention and city/state tax problems that resulted in a "RV" becoming a "house" in a normal advanced nation.
Let the free market build homes people can afford and where they are needed.
Poor crime filled areas get fully gentrified and new tech jobs return.
A city returns to its former glory with less trash, no need for living in parked RV and tents.
The UK market was separated from the USA by gov educational intervention and strange prices.
The USA had Intel and Microsoft and Apple making rapid advances in computer hardware, software, OS use, audio support and advanced early GPU use.
The UK was held back with demands for education games/software used on set OS and hardware.
Tax issues, costs, poverty, local UK manufacturing efforts, governments, TV systems, educational demands all took the UK years to recover from and eventual move to much more advanced imported US desktop computers.
People all over the world wanted business software, color, audio, games, printers, networking.
Microsoft offered all that on a normal PC but it took time for the UK buy into new systems.
"Teachers and "pay" cant teach IQ.
Generations have tried to teach people using books, computers, robot GUI, new software, enjoyed spending huge extra charity budgets.
Better teachers don't help. More pay does not help. Different types of new computer "education" has the same low results.
Demographics and IQ always show up on testing and results years and decades later.
So games can be played around the world using low cost dev code.
When the game knows where people "are" and will "be" lag feels less bad.
Game play feels responsive for all no matter the ping.
The alternative would be new servers needed in all/many nations with extra huge bandwidth costs.
A new way to tax people that allowed poor people to afford the costs of buy into nice areas?
A tax on wages?
A transport tax?
A tax on spending?
On investments?
That money to support all the gov projects every year has to be extracted in some way.
Re "This is all rather rich... free markets to the rescue...."
Hows that gov control with waste in the streets and people living in RV working for decades?
Need another city and state tax to support the poor?
Let the free market build some new housing by removing gov control over the number of new homes.
The free market will fill released land by building homes that will sell in that area.
Wealthy people get nice new homes. Rents will reflect the price the value of a nice area, that's clean and has no crime.
Middle class areas get affordable homes.
Poor areas get rent supported homes.
Wealth keeps the different communities well apart and tech workers will enjoy their new homes.
Camping on a road in a city would be something police could move people out of the area for.
Filling a city street with waste and junk should get police to enforce city laws.
When city planning cant plan for long term housing and normal people have to live in an RV they are poor.
The problem is the "older and richer neighbors living in a nearly identical house". Stop trying to shape a city with demographics.
Free up land use and let the free market move in.
People who don't want to live in an illegal parked RV will then find homes as that demand for low cost housing exists.
Areas of the city will face huge property taxes changes.
Wealthy areas will stay wealthy and attract only more very wealth people.
Areas then free from city tax rates and efforts to shape "demographics" will then be open to new investment.
Enforce parking laws. No more RV camps on streets.
No more tent cities on roads and paths.
Get caught placing trash and waste in the streets? Police get to enforce the law.
Open drug use in the streets? Police.
Crime in the streets? Police and lots of new CCTV to track criminals.
A person is living on the streets? Get them support, medical help, find them another city with the support they need.
That removes the crime, waste, trash, drug use and blocked road problems.
Change zoning rules in poor parts of a city so investment and gentrification can move crime and poverty out of the nice city areas.
New clean, safe buildings near the nice new tech job centres.
Allow more gated communities to ensure investors are safe.
Stop making new building accept a percentage of poor people as part of their approval to build a new building.
Need more housing for the working poor, poor? Set aside areas of the city for poor people and their needs. Offer tax credits and consider changes to permits to build low cost housing for poor people in city approved areas. Have the city help poor US citizens with rent but only in approved low cost areas.
Test each US citizen for citizenship and their wealth. Look after the poor US citizens using city funds. Don't use city funds on people with wealth. No city spending and no city services for illegal migrants.
The city can then look after more poor US citizens with less need for more tax spending.
Less new taxes makes the safe and clean city attract for investment again.
The city becomes great again.
No more moving poor people into middle class and wealthy areas with the city paying rent to change the "demographics" of once safe and clean wealthy areas.
That will create very seperate nice areas for the wealthy and their tech jobs. For the poor to have clean and spacious housing in a very different part of a city they can afford.
Approve some malls, shops and parks. With new police to cover all parks and malls. Consumers spending money and people enjoying recreation again without crime, trash on streets, open drug use.
Everyone is happy. Low cost housing is ready for the working poor. The wealthy are safe and productive in their part of the city.
Add in a low cost transport system to get the poor to their jobs on time every shift.
Allow better city planning so private bus services can move skilled workers from good housing areas to good jobs.
Skilled works can then enjoy their bus commute only every seeing nice parts of a city.
That will attract more skilled workers fleeing other cities with crime, trash, waste, taxes, tent cities, a RV problem and ever more new city and state taxes.
The type of cities that ban employee cafeterias and have new taxes will become less attractive.
Find new police who can enforce laws about trash, waste, crime, drug use, have the ability to move on a RV.
Clean up every city.
Watch as investment returns. Housing supply meets demand again as city planning is done on the wealth of an area, not "demographics" and political considerations.
Virtue signalling? Political correctness.
People with the wealth that never to have to live in high crime and near poverty areas like to show how they would make other parts of a city better.
No city wants an over supply of low cost buildings. It reduces the "good" investment rent and ownership.
Who wants to build a new building and have to offer low cost rents as the city is full of low cost rental places to live?
Who wants to live with poor people? The crime and poverty moving into once good areas?
Needing a top income by one person, two good incomes to rent keeps good parts of a city clean and safe. Investment ready.
Much better to have too few places to rent that are good quality and keep prices up for everyone.
The "tax" a city can extract from the more wealth home owners is a plus for that kind of city planning too.
The funny part is the CIA, NSA, GCHQ, MI6 let China get away with so much free spying for decades....
Did they all get told to let China spy in the West?
Who held back the best efforts by the FBI, MI5 to stop spying by China?
Did the West have its own long term plans to counter spying by China?
People need a way to support the people they like.
As large politically motivated US sites ban and report content creators and publishers some way to support interesting people has to be found.
Freedom of speech and freedom after speech is not a sin.
A payment system may have some use in supporting people politically after politically motivated deplatforming and bans.
When a large company thinks it can shape politics by removing a publisher, people can still show their support with a different method of funding.
Free from the politics of large brands who want to curate the internet.
Thats why the GCHQ never got in the legal system, never let on what they did in Ireland, with the Royal Ulster Constabulary Special Branch.
When nobody understands what is collected and how, then groups been watched look inwards for informats.
All the US gov had to do was keep using parallel construction https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... and random "adware" and "malware".
Make the user click a link, open an unexpected document from a "friends" email and click on something.
Make a browser connect in an unexpected way due to media and peer content.
Decades of users could have been collected on for free.
Now people want to know all about federal malware.
The other weird part was the
"the signing certificate(s) of all the samples are revoked"
"... this certificateand thus surely this malware as well."

Yes the US mil can make sure long range repurpose dual use "consumer" products do not get the needed accuracy in time of war.
The people who have great jobs in France supporting Ada doing new "space" work for France and the EU.
Precision and bespoke rockets from France.
Thats decades of new work making GPS French.
The selling points are the ability to "game" while video streaming and downloading.
More easy to setup with games.
Because new users are from the OS X and Windows side of computing.

Go back over the years of Snowden documents.

Demand all new buildings approved in wealthy areas of a city have accept set amount of random poor people?

Bank loans for the "poor" so they can buy a home. Even if they cant pay the loan back?
