That is a silly question. If AGW is indeed the absolute truth and global warning would actually cause the death of people, then the answer is obvious: As the climate change is being cause by humans, less humans would mean less climate change. The more die, the less of a problem it becomes.

  FWIW, global thermonuclear war in the 60's would have fixed this little problem. But noooooo, couldn't have that could we? Damn hippies and your "no nukes" jibber-jabber. Now look what you did!

To be honest, I don't mind it as long as it isn't over the top. Everywhere I look IRL, there are branded products. It only gets stupid when it is blatant. E.g. Every can of soda is exactly the same and in the same orientation all the time or every computer that is NOT a DELL has the brand masked.

So Chinese porn is okay then? Score!!!

If it can be collected an put back into a toner cartridge - not terribly

Cigarettes are also legal and accepted by society to a point. Meth is neither. I quit smoking because it was a good Idea not because of cost. The cost of cigarettes was included in my budget. (first)

At my peak, I was smoking 2-3 packs a day. I drove less.

I think you meant "until" instead of "if"

That's what metal detectors do. I fly a lot. these go thusly:
wait, get in, put your feet on the prints (rotated 90 degrees from normal walking direction), hold up your arms
wait for the scanner to swipe through it's arc.
get out
wait on another set of footprints

total time 20-45 seconds per scan.

This sort of thing was posited in Neal Stephenson's "The Diamond Age". Resulted in suicide.

Three steps: Kill DNS, then start in with backhoes and anchors there aren't THAT many backbones. Then change the access codes on the sats - boom! no internet.
Even easier: talk the ISPs into closing their backbones to public traffic. The internet isn't NEARLY as decentralized as it should be.
The only way to combat this is with a wide area wireless mesh. every wireless peers it's neighbor. Intercontinental traffic is still gone if the oceanic fiber is cut, but relatively localized networks will still be possible.

Revert on boot. Only do installs on a clean master.
