The world at large seems to have descended into moral panic on all sorts of subjects and it's difficult for me to understand precisely how or why. Perhaps it's no coincidence that …

I can find a "US v Fletcher" from 2008 that deals with obscenity law, though the only "US v McCoy" I can find was itself about charges for CSAM. The latter does seem to reference a…

What in the world is this referring to?

uBlock Origin Lite is available for Safari on mobile, though that's not exactly the same extension. Orion supports standard uBlock Origin on mobile, but then that's not a browser "…

I'm not the biggest fan of how I phrased some of this. Perhaps "and so I'm opting not to speak to those point." Unfortunate how short the edit window for comments is on here. In ei…

There's a number of things being said here, but much of it seems orthogonal to the original discussion and so I'm not going to address it. Rather, if these characters aren't agents…

No, that's fine, since I think it's not only the case that these are sufficient, but that I simply wasn't explicit enough in my rejection. What I'm disputing is any application of …

I've definitely seen people say it's about agency, though exactly what they mean by that and why they think that matters tends to vary. That said, I suspect your response is in lin…

Can you give me an example of this? As far as I understand it sex positivity doesn't seem to be concerned with "media sexualizing women" in and of itself. Consequently I'm not sure…

What does it mean to "handle online media?" How is it you would say "most adults" fall short of this?

Product development disagreements are largely immaterial to me, though the discussion around their integrations with Yandex remind me of prior discussions around their integrations…

What is the direction that things are going at Kagi now? What were they before?

It’s not entirely clear what this is in reference to or what you’re attempting to say.

The supposition that this is “more nuanced than I think” given the particular example you’ve chosen strikes me as quite bizarre. Does “17 year olds collecting nudes of 14 year olds…

Take a guess at what they might have been into when they were kids!

Ah, alright. I suppose it comes down to the fact that even thought labeled as such, this speech isn't actually fictitious. I see your point here.
