That's all well and good but Call of Duty is notorious for bad anti-cheat leading to it being overrun with cheaters.
On the other hand, games on consoles such as PS4 and Xbox One are pretty clean (if you disable crossplay).
  It's not about preventing every cheater, but at some point it becomes to hard to cheat that the average user gives up. This is how you harm the chest developers' business model.
And bans these days are by hardware ID as well so it's not enough for a cheater to buy the game again. They'd need to buy a new PC as well.

"keep the borders closed with strict quarantines" is impossible for Democrats to agree with since it sounds like "something Trump would do". The 2 party system in the US needs to go.

This has nothing at all to do with the hardware. Data collection is not required for the hardware to function at all. As demonstrated by /e/os. And in case you were making the point that all these ads and pre-installed apps would allow the manufacturer to decrease the price of the hardware (smartphone), have you looked at the prices of Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy phones recently?

"Amazon, which has a history of seeking to enforce non-compete agreements vigorously"

This is the kind of thing that a union could help with. But I guess tech bros are so smart they don't need old fashioned institutions like that.

These days 'stochastic stochastic terrorism' is a bigger problem. It's when someone wants to get rid of meddlesome speech they disagree with, and to do that they equate speech to 'calls for violence' by misusing the stochastic 'terrorism' meme.

Regulatory fines are the only thing that get corporations in line. The EU enacted the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) which took effect 25 May 2018 and it contains fines up to 4% of annual worldwide turnover. It also applies if data on EU citizens is processed abroad. It's had a positive effect across the world.

Monopoly is just the word used by users/the media to describe thr dominant position Apple has. It doesn't mean they fulfill the (high) legal criteria in the US to be considered a monopoly in the strict sense. Ask an Apple iOS user about their choice of app stores.

Because Firefox's audience may not like their browser vendor call for more 'deplatforming' : https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mo...

Or the firing of Stallman from the FSF board: https://mobile.twitter.com/moz...

Or pushing out the creator of Javascript for opinions from half a decade earlier: https://eu.usatoday.com/story/...

Yes Mozilla as an organization can't handle differences of opinion maturely. They gave into the woke mob demanding the resignation of the creator of Javascript over a private donation made half a decade earlier (https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/04/04/mozilla-ceo-resignation-free-speech/7328759/), called for RMS to resign https://www.fastcompany.com/90...,
and literally called for 'more than deplatforming' of those they disagree with politically ' https://www.fastcompany.com/90...

I'm afraid the Watchowski Brothers will use this movie as some vehicle for cringe worthy transtrender / woke pandering.

"Today with covid, I'm a dissenter" what is that supposed to mean? Antivaxxer?

They can't even handle different opinions maturely. Remember how they created a hostile working environment for the creator of Javascript over a personal donation *half a decade* ago? https://eu.usatoday.com/story/...

Signing a letter against Richard M. Stallman https://rms-open-letter.github...

Literally calling for more deplatforming: https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mo... ('We need more than deplatforming').
Why would you trust a company like that to respect your privacy?

Whilst gaming 'journalism' is indeed an incestuous corrupt bunch, I wouldn't say they are still relevant. Players just switched over to Youtube where they can actually see the game in motion.

Found the crypto-miner that is doing the same thing and is defending this guy's conduct. Cryptomining = eco-cide.

If they want to pull a No Man's Sky and redeem their reputation they better make sure to address the issue of lack of content.
