Most governments use some sort of enterprise Linux distros, not their own distros. Even when they do, it's their distros. Why would they worry about censorship and surveillance?

I'm not as optimistic. Some people will complain and move to alternative platforms. But the vast majority won't care and continue using the abusive platform, forcing the rest to use it sometimes. The best example for this is Reddit and Lemmy.
Personally I'm impressed it took them so long to start driving it to the ground
You mean their copyright washing of FOSS projects using copilot wasn't enough of a warning?
Deep fake recognition is already available. And, while what you predict sounds logical, these criminals prey on emotions. I feel that a lot of innocent people will be victimized even if deep fake porn becomes common.
Is there a background story to this image?
I don't smoke and am completely against smoking. But this sounds like wishful thinking that has the potential to backfire spectacularly. There is a reason why many jurisdictions are deregulating banned substances. It helps to prevent the black market for concentrated and adulterated versions of the banned substance. It also helps people with addiction to seek treatment without worry of prosecution. Perhaps they should invest in better education than go for bans.
I'm pretty sure that the environment inside the satellite gets nowhere near that cold. There are a lot of things like propellants and batteries which won't work if it gets cold. They usually have an active thermal control system to regulate temperature.
Yes. Contrary to what some Americans think, the rest of the world isn't ruled by the US and their often ridiculous laws don't apply. For instance in this case, neither the code nor the community discussions have anything to do directly with Nintendo. In addition, emulators and reverse engineering are perfectly legal in many places. There are plenty of jurisdictions where such frivolous and preemptive copyright strikes won't even be tolerated.
They are suing them. It's just that the courts aren't as enthusiastic about dispensing justice in case of the executives as they were with the sub postmasters.
Imagine having your life ruined and thrown in jail. And then the 'executive' who is willfully responsible for it gets away by offering you an insincere and shitty apology! They haven't even returned the bonuses they got for it!
If this is the way the judicial and economic systems treat the rich and the poor, it won't be long before there's a worldwide French revolution.
Do you think the entire world is under US laws? Besides, with FOSS services, you get the option to backup and migrate the data. Do you get that with Discord?
Microsoft uses a lot of Linux. Especially on Azure.
