    So, what would be the viable alternative? Selling user data? Genuine question: are there business that are not viable unless you sell user data?

    Independently of who said what, look at the facts and make up your mind.

    I never said it’s OK for the government to control speech undemocratically like happens in China, maybe I didn’t explain myself well. My point is: I would prefer the government dec…

    But a country’s policy is decided by the citizens, if you live in a democracy. Facebook’s policy is decided by its CEO and few others. Citizens/users have no saying. There’s a big …

    Friendly reminder that when what can and cannot be said is chosen by a private company, they will always choose what’s better for their business. The only way of having some moral …

    I never said that the article says that it’s fraud. I said, taking full responsibility for it, that vote-by-mail is more prone to fraud. Why should I leave my political views at th…

    I know everyone in certain social circles is pressured into saying that vote-by-mail is the best thing ever, because the Orange Man said that vote-by-mail is bad and you must be on…

    Completely wrong analogy. Critical theorists just want to shut down any kind of debate whose conversation does not fit their worldview. I don't think we need examples here. On the …

    My thoughts exactly. I plan on checking and maybe using Ceasefire, but if it succeeds the critical theorists will declare it another means of intersectional oppression. And then th…

    I have my evidence that Lena is not harmful to women, at least to this woman. It’s one data point, but better than zero. You are making a much stronger claim without evidence. How …

    My point is: people (often, males) like to speak in the name of all women when it comes to Lena. It’s offensive, it keeps women out of CS, it’s a symbol of the patriarchy, etc... A…
