Correct. Most states' laws do not envision the situation we are currently seeing, let alone what's coming.
Check your state. What constitutes harassment, and can you think of harassing things that could be done without violating the law? I can for my state.
I think you're right if the goal is to stop them all together.
But what we can do is stop people from sending them around and saying that it's true/actually the person.
Once they've turned it from a art project into a weapon, it should have similar consequences to "revenge porn."
Wonderful in theory, but in practice it's a dumpster fire. Quick, mainstreamm-acceptable takes are incentived, and nuanced, alternative viewpoints are nearly impossible.
If it were all for hobby stuff, it would be fine, but when this is how most people get their news, it's not good.
These folks won't witness it either. Not with that eye anyway.
Not the original person you responded to, but I type 120ish wpm. The trick is to try to tap into the same part of your brain that verbalizes words when you talk, rather than the part that composes stuff when you write.
I don't think you can expect rational discourse from a collective concern.
Some people will agree with you. Some people will disagree, because at the end of the day, if you're willing to vote for someone even when they don't do what you like, then they have no incentive to consider anything you like.
Neither position is wrong.
Our system, which sets up two bad options, is what's wrong.
This is ultimately a false dichotomy. We operate as if there are only two options, because no one person has the power to fix this, but instead of recognizing that the system is broken, we blame each other for not going all in on what we all admit is problematic.
As with most things, "free market" is what they demand when they don't get have access to the market or can't command the whole market.
Once they have access or enough of a percentage to set the prices, suddenly the best thing is high barriers to entry and whatever else will help them maintain inelastic demand.
Very unlikely. There's a statement at the bottom that explains what the fee is. There's a QR code at the top for more information, which OP cut off.
I doubt they went through the effort of updating their POS system, providing links to info on the receipt, and chose not to post a sign or put a note on the menu. Everywhere I have been with a service fee like this posts it, which would negate any legal issue.
Caveat emptor.
It's literally what's happening.
Texas used the same concept to empower private people to sue abortion providers and receivers under civil law since they couldn't do it criminally.
The country as a whole has done it for a long time with cellphone data, the five eyes alliance, etc.
They have access to information they're barred from getting directly themselves, and they get it from private companies. Spying by proxy.
It's all the same thing. He "offered" to buy Twitter and then tried to back out. Market manipulation.
The board of Twitter forced the sale, because they had every right and responsibility to their shareholders to do so.
Now he's wrecking the company seemingly on purpose. Market manipulation.
Not for long.
