Aren't all Windows users used to unsolicited banners, tooltips and other advert stuff constantly getting in their way? I don't see the problem.

Attached to: EU Opens Investigation Into TikTok Over Election Interference
From TFA: "Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said the new investigation followed serious indications that foreign actors interfered in the Romanian presidential election."
People of the world need to identify those who maliciously attempt to steer the minds of those who vote in their own elections. This isn't stopping any time soon unless we neutralize it.

I support the preservation of musical history via digital distribution.
I really think copyright law needs to be revised to allow projects that actually preserve the artistry, culture and the timelessness of the art itself. Ask any true artist if they'd want their works preserved lovingly and honorably for many hundreds/thousands of years to come.

What customers actually want this feature? I'm curious. All I've heard is negative feedback about this thing. Did anyone actually ask for it?

Reminds me of using Edge exactly once (to download Firefox or Chrome). Of course, Edge kicks and screams the whole way in that instance.

I'm shocked. SHOCKED that M$ created a useless product and shoved it violently upon its entire userbase.

This is total crap. So, what... I do the work, then IF you accept it into your GH project, you'll claim copyright, then deny me the right to share what I did in the first place?
Fuck off.

I love reading these articles and just chuckling... and moving on.

I think you're wrong. This isn't a silver bullet and nobody claimed it to be.
Attacking the problem at every possible angle is necessary, including this one.

It *should* be considered a crime. This planet is a shared resource and people shouldn't be allowed to fuck it up for everyone, especially for something as shallow as money.

"Do I need to pay someone because I looked at their work" - I mean, that's the basis for going to the movies, the museum, a concert or buying music...you know, leveraging copyright and all

Seriously. Who in the name of the elders of the Internet ever thought that consolidation at this capacity and context was anywhere close to a good idea, security-and-privacy-wise?

Whoops... I stand corrected. I guess, to me, it was similar enough looking to trick my brain.
