Thanks, didn't know about those deals!

+1 for own domain and some email hosting service. That also makes it pretty easy to switch providers because you can simply point your MX records etc. somewhere else - no need to change the actual email address.

I can also recommend mailbox.org as an alternative to mxroute, they're even a little cheaper at $3/month (mxroute is $49/year at minimum).

Lawmaking is a slow and tedious process full of compromises, and the EU is apparently the only governmental body that cares enough to actually do something against the wild west of digital tracking. I for one am happy about that, and contrary to public opinion the GDPR is actually being enforced (albeit not strictly enough).

And why did "the politicians" refuse not to listen to "the scientists"? Part of the answer is definitely due to unrealistic n-year plans.

Also, there were other factors at play such as secrecy around the danger of graphite-tipped control rods. The Soviets had discovered this danger already, but had kept it secret even from their nuclear engineers.

Oh yes, they do. Corruption, unrealistic n-year plans and secrecy for example lead to defective products, poor quality and accidents. That's exactly what happened in Chernobyl, and I don't need to tell you how bad that was for the environment.

Other economic systems aren't exactly protective of the environment either though, so I don't really get your point.

It’s perfectly clear that Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians and if you support that, I’m sorry but you’re absolutely evil.

This "you're either for Palestine or a genocide supporter" mindset is half the reason this conflict still exists, the other half is the "you're either for Israel or a terrorist supporter" mindset. I'm sure it feels great to have a one-dimensional world view, but not everyone is either for or against one side.

All I was asking for is a source for your claim that Israel is spreading misinformation and that said misinformation is allowed to proliferate. The one source you provided is inadequate because it doesn't have any proof of Israeli lies, it just says that Israeli-provided proof is inconclusive. Let alone your claim that the alleged misinformation is not removed...

We're done here, clearly there's no good faith discussion to be had.

You evidently had enough time to post elsewhere, so it's not unreasonable to think you might've read my reply already.

How is the WP article showing misinformation? It basically boils down to "Israel alleged something and provided some evidence, but we think it's not conclusive". It does not show that Israel knowingly lied about anything, which is what you're insinuating.

What do you base that claim on? The article doesn't mention it.

Edit: Your silence is also an answer. Ironic, talking about misinformation and spreading it yourself...

You need to follow trusted sources like the IDF

Ah yes, there's nothing quite like trusting one side exclusively. No way they would ever lie for their own benefit!
