The onus isn't on the environment owner to lock down app space and secure data to the nth degree, it's on developers not to ship poorly behaved apps. My files don't exist in a public space like they are rubbish on a residential nature strip, free to be pilfered by randos. They aren't free game in any way.

I hope red and blue both find success in this segment. Ideally the strengthened APU share of the market exerts pressure on publishers to properly optimize their games instead of cynically offloading the compute cost onto players.
If my hardware is to be used as a public space then I expect it to be provided for free. While I foot the cost, it's my property solely, and encryption status of the contents remains completely irrelevant. You sound like you've drunk the corporate KoolAid.
Diversity, equity and inclusivity are not zero-sum games
In the sense of individuals treating each other humanely day-to-day, sure. But when viewed through an employer lens, it's a collection of strategies whose purpose is to maintain poor conditions for the coalescence of labor solidarity. There's nothing non-zero-sum about that.
I somewhat agree with the sentiments. There's a monoculture in Australian popular publishing that tends to be reluctant to acknowledge its own existence. Its preferences and peccadilloes are obvious to any switched-on reader. I'll continue to shop at Robinsons.
In fact the easier option is anti-piracy technology. As shown by the continued investment in various DRM vendor offerings. Competing on service quality is very hard.
Hiroshima has completely given up on ever making 4chan profitable, so it’s still full of unfiltered organic discussion, porn. funny shitposting and couple of unobtrusive banner ads.
As low-brow as it can get, 4chan is still part of the solution, unlike plebbit.
In my day it was a sight of your ID alone, and only on the cashier's discretion. Which is still the norm today at many retailers. I will never use any POS system that requires ID scanning/PII provision as a default.
It's probably my inexperience with self-checkout speaking, but I would never enter PII into a corporate terminal for the sake of a six-pack.
