Exactly, slander is an absolute defense against slander in the US, and of course you have zero expectation of privacy in a place of public accommodation, otherwise CCTV would be hella illegal!

Because there's no difference between women being forced to wear a head covering to dull the lusts of uncontrollable men, and basic sanitation during a pandemic, gotcha.
Is it cheaper? I know in the EU/GB they price it with VAT included, but in the US the price is pre-tax so it might end up being about the same cost.
The networks, who own the content, are asking for it. Why would they take $5/month per subscriber for the good stuff when they can get $10/month for the good and cheap stuff together?
Youtube Premium, and it's a whole $12/month or $18/month for a family. No ads on Youtube, offline content, streaming and offline music, seems like a pretty good amount of value to me compared to $65 for the TV stuff. Even before I signed up I found that my viewing habits had shifted towards the more focused content on Youtube, now it's 90% of what I watch. The other 10% is split between Amazon Prime video and Netflix.
What, you don't think there's an oil tanker, or oil rig, with a SCADA system available via the internet that could be hacked?
We had that, VRML worked fine for creating useful 3D interfaces over dialup. They didn't have the bling of the movie, but that's mostly sugar on top of the useful part.
Nope, it's about racism. While facial recognition is extremely poor across the board, the false positive rate for non-Caucasians is several times higher due to selection bias in training sets. This has been documented across almost all of the major facial recognition engines that researchers were given access to.
Exactly, and low prices of liquids will keep new shale wells from being drilled, in the past the liquid fraction would pay for the drilling and the gas was the profit, with liquid prices in the tank nobody will be starting new wells (heck if it stays low enough they might turn off the pumps because it won't be worth the cost of electricity). That dropping supply will actually raise the price of natural gas barring a huge drop in industrial usage.
Good for you, I guess. But 1TB is only 3 hours per day of 4k video, or 1.5 hours if you have 2 people streaming, not exactly hard to exceed.
Hopefully this can once and for all kill the fig leaf for data caps and prove that there is zero justification for them. If they can handle this unprecedented load then it's always been a complete farce and we should keep them from re-implementing them under whatever color of law we need to (antitrust seems a good place to start, since it's basically a racket perpetrated by a monopoly)
Good question since they're obviously in violation of a bunch of SEC regulations for publicly traded companies.
