In the same vein, Musk didn't make billions. Tesla workers did.

Scotland, UK, which is not in the EU.

Next up, Reddit punishes users who downvote peaceful posts.

So, soo close to supporting vaccines.

Exactly. They aren't even attempting to scare Tesla customers themselves. It's all about tarnishing Musk's image, sending a message, and damaging his cashcow.

Just fyi, there isnt just one liquor monopoly. Not sure about other provinces, but BC has BC Liquor and Quebec has SAQ. I guess LCBO is Ontario's.

I wonder if, in his infinite costcutting wisdom, he removed "redundancies" in the twitter stack that wouldve helped it better withstand cyberattacks.

While too far left could mean this, the op just said "slightly left". Of course, if what you meant is that Bernie Sanders is barely left enough, that anyone to the right of him is the problem, then nvm.

This is irrelevant because Meta should not be tried for this the same as a private individual would be.

The case for torrenting being illegal for private individuals is one or both of:

  1. Downloading in of itself is stealing.
  2. Uploading is giving unauthorized access to someone else who otherwise might have had a harder time finding it. Anything else, such as watching, reading, listening, learning, etc. is not illegal (or does not make sense to make illegal). The exception might be publishing. This is rare for private individuals (e.g. using pirated FL studio to make a commercial song).

For corporations, a lot change. Firstly, a corporation downloading a torrent is necessarily making unauthorized material available for some people of the company. It's like a group of 20 friends all downloaded and uploaded to each other. Secondly, they used this copyrighted material commercially (like playing pirated music in a public night club). Both should be illegal.

However, all of this is still a distraction. The real issue is using copyrighted materials to train commercial AI. Does Meta require permission from copyright holders to make AI based on their work? The law is grey on this, and desperately needs regulations.

Just my thoughts.

Youre both saying the same thing!

"A russian VPN is blocked" is what you showed. From that, we can infer that probably all Russian ip's are blocked.
