In situations like this, the answer isn't to argue over the interpretation of the words: it's to fix the words.
If the writers intended "no excessive capitalization or excessive grammatical errors", then it should be changed to that.
If the writers intended "no excessive capitalization and no grammatical errors", then it should be changed to that.
Both situations remove the ambiguity and prevent pedantic internet arguments about language interpretation.
If the adverts are completely optional, this is the best way to do it. "Here, if you watch this ad we'll give you free shit!" is way more likely to get me to watch whatever it is, but "You will watch this ad or you won't get to play anymore" is the fastest way to get me to uninstall.
Pfff, all these amateurs here using Vim. Y'all should use Emacs. You still have all of these problems, but you get to act all superior about it. /s (except for the superiority complex; that's real)
There are places to work that aren't complete dogshit, but you do have to avoid FinTech, FAANG, and probably anything with a lot of VC funding. You will make less money, but at least you won't be asked to do morally reprehensible shit on the regular.
Some of my best experiences have actually been at non-tech companies with small IT teams for internal shit. Biggest team I've ever worked on was 30 devs and that's probably about the largest team I'd want to work with.
EDIT: This does assume you're working in the States which is a dumb assumption for me to make. I'm not familiar with the culture outside of the states, but I imagine it's better than here.
I think the biggest problem is that the idea of copyright is good, but the implementation - in most places, anyways - is complete dogshit.
Like, I'm fairly certain the original implementation of copyright in the US only lasted 10 years or thereabouts. Like, that's more than enough time to profit off whatever you made but short enough that it'll be usable by others within their lifetimes. This whole "life of the author + 100 years" shit needs to die.

Anyone that believes your phone is sending every sound it receives to the cloud knows absolutely nothing about data storage and transfer.
It would require more storage than the entire rest of the internet combined, would horribly tax both internet and cell infrastructure, and 99% of it would be useless noise. You might get that with targeted surveillance, but we're not all being targeted like that.
What's far more likely is that your phone is doing semantic analysis on what you're saying all the time and reporting that data. It's much less data, much easier to keep track of, provides actionable insights at scale, and would be far more useful to an oppressive regime. Your phone isn't sending recordings of your conversations, it's sending metadata about all your conversations.
Every accusation is an admission.
Weird, I found the Arch-based one once but now I can't find it. Everything keeps pointing me back to that page...
EDIT: All I can find now is HoloISO - which seems to be in a reasonable place, I guess.
I've been wondering for a little while now if WinApps will work for gaming. It uses a VM in the background but, supposedly, has a "native" experience. Thoughts?
~~You can also install SteamOS which is literally what the Steam Deck runs.~~
EDIT: Disregard, I can't read.
If a state-actor doxxing you is in your threat model, using any social media should be verboten - even under a pseudonym.
