I did not say anything about protecting kids from big tech or the state? Even if I had, your argument is we must surveil more to protect the kids from the surveillance state?

We don't hold parents responsible for most neglect. Why is this special?

not if the fingerprint code is coming from the first party server which is the case for most modern malware.

Americans are getting executed on the streets, ran by corrupt pedophiles, and their taxes are being funneled to the rich in the open. Where's the insurgency?

You fundamentally misunderstand what privacy means if you're replying to someone stating using a VPN will help you avoid getting spied on by your ISP for commercial purposes with s…

Yes, because if the American army went rogue I'm sure a bunch of untrained goons cosplaying as John Wick will be able to take them with some assault rifles and pistols. A very impo…

Makes me think they might not have the most knowledgeable people on the job. Hopefully they didn't just throw some unwilling Windows devs into the unknown.

Background shader pre-compilation does not use all cores by default and the only way to change that is to manually edit a file. So unless you're consciously changing it, you won't …
