Browser zero days are some of the most valuable exploits in existence, so I highly doubt it would happen in practice

I hate being right

Why do people keep being fooled by rich assholes

Private companies, especially global ones, have too much power. Isn't it kinda fucked up how a company can overrule laws in multiple countries all over the world, just due to how strong their presence is?

Ok but this is very simple. Everyone can set up something like this using home assistant and a few sensors connected up to it

As far as I could tell, it was never intended to be a serious quote, especially because the person saying this was the literal villain that was being portrayed as not sane

It is however also worth noting that lines of code is a not great metric for complexity

If you can rally a local community behind you, it's better to look beyond the limitations and negative influences of money

Honestly, if you read the manual you are very much not dumb

Yes, sometimes it is good to evade the law, because the law might be immoral, for one reason or another, and ranging in severity from not being able to buy weed that helps you, to not being able to flee from a country that might kill you

So there is some legit and morally acceptable use-cases for crypto, but still, it's not much

Crypto actually is really useful for evading the law, yes, and so it's good for donating to underground organizations (or to buy drugs or illegal services)

But that's about the only real use-case as far as I can tell
