Magnetorquers are lightweight, reliable, and energy-efficient. Unlike thrusters, they do not require expendable propellant either, so they could in theory work indefinitely as long as a sufficient power source is available to match the resistive load of the coils.
Then turn fucking cookies off, like you've been able to for a decade.
My cookies are off. I still don't want advertisers stalking me. I shouldn't have to be on the defensive.
How could they do one without the other?
You can sell a product without collecting any information about the purchaser. Every company knows how many units they're moving. Why do they need purchaser details? They can continue to use surveys to get details that people voluntarily offer. Advertising is a tool, not a right.
you're simply assuming that because you don't like it, nobody else does either.
You're assuming what I assume. I just stated I don't like it. I could care less what everyone else thinks.
Is there *any* evidence that the data collected has ever been misused in any way?
I don't particularly care if the data is misused because I don't agree with the method of data collection to begin with. I don't need people tracking my actions to see how to advertise to me. Advertisements are annoying. Advertisers should be tracking products or sales, not individuals.
Before the government starts regulating an industry, shouldn't there be evidence that the industry is in fact in need of regulating?
I support the FTC being proactive and considering preventative action. Should we wait for a crime to be committed before we make it illegal?

I'm sorry. I'll pray for you.
