At this time, it's nothing but malware. And I'm not just maliciously joking:

Back in the '00s, malware was usually defined as "adware or spyware". When you had "utilities" like Bonzi Buddy send your data to the mothership, display ads, and annoy you with tacky images as well, it was something considered by users to be a major problem. Today, Windows, Apple, and Android have such functionality baked into the very OS...

Trying to skirt the law isn't supposed to be looked at kindly by the courts.

Remember the trick they pulled on ISO with MSOOXML? With 100+ country delegations bribed (some had investigations but the vast majority were dismissed or ended with a slap on the wrist), ISO then having problems with quorum as most of these newly joined delegations had no interest in other topics?

Microsoft accusing others of a shadow campaign is kind of a coal miner's kettle accusing others utensils of being dirty.

Make up your mind please: first you say "planet" then "Pluto".

Bestest pickup line: "Cutie, your name must be Suicide, cuz I think of you every day.".

And that's a problem, how? Celebrity gossip doesn't depend on the celebrities actually doing something.

Eh? I don't see any dichotomy, false or not, in what I wrote. Could you explain, please? Because I don't even see which sentence you're referring to.

This. By raw death count, Greenpeace is more evil than nazis, commies, christianity and islam taken together. Electricity generation from coal kills a Hitler worth of people every less than 3 years with short-term air pollution alone (ie, ignoring global warming etc).

We already had Germany having a healthy base of non-polluting power generation. Instead, they switched to lignite, which is the dirtiest kind of coal.

What if they start generating energy from the fog?

That you mispell that acronym as "CURD" is telling.

apt-cacher is still maintained, then there's approx and others. Or you can just use squid or some random generic http cache, as apt works well with a standard web server; apt-cacher{,-ng} are merely aware of data lifetimes thus they can make better decisions when to delete obsolete stuff.

A camera is already included in some models, ostensibly so it autoselects who is watching. You can see where this is going... :p

Birds have already been murdered by the government. What's starting the fires are the surveillance drones that replaced the birds.

M$ has proven its security and reliability over the period of four decades already, and their track record is 100% consistent: pure failcity. Thus, it is long overdue to migrate off GitHub. sr.ht can be found -----> that way, so can Gitlab (not as trustworthy IMO but you can run your own instance), and others.
