If the US government wants to spy on you, they have boots on the ground. Russia has been involved with ransomeware campaigns.

The country you live in.

Maybe a hot take, but this goes for everyone. I see older people that can’t stay off their phones, and have little to no ability to multitask while doing it.

From time to time Teams doesn’t show me a teams meeting that I have on my outlook calendar, so I’d believe it.

That’s my bad. I was trying to say it was so not useful. Poor wording on my part.

While Restaurant margins are low, raising them to minimum wage wouldn’t bankrupt them, but it might cause some employees to quit who were making a lot more than that. I don’t know if that’s your goal or not.

A better idea would be to coordinate a campaign to stop going to restaurants that do tipping. Don’t make the worker out in the work that way.

I don’t know, but Microsoft’s free copilot stuff is so not useful that it doesn’t make me feel the need to pay them for the business product

Everyone couldn’t agree to put a simple piece of fabric over their mouths in public to reduce the spread of a deadly virus. You’ll never convince everyone of anything. You’ll absolutely hurt workers. Period.

Are you trying to say competition is good for the consumer?! That’s a wild accusation.

New strategy: convince them this data collection includes information about their guns, and these third parties are collecting it in order to take them away.

Write your congress person to enact a GDPR-like Bill. Short of that, as you've said, idk how sites are going to make money. The current situation is majorly self-inflicted. We don't want to pay, so they have ads. We don't want to see ads, so they collect and sell data. Now that VC money has dried up, it's going to get worse and there's no other answer.
