I don't know how much salt renders water undrinkable and I didn't see that question addressed in the article.
Either way, this is good. Gradual progress is still progress.

I think that you're absolutely correct. Some people would have bought if free downloads had not been available but most people wouldn't have.

And Slashdot is a place for middle-aged white IT guys who are fake Marxists to complain about life.
What does Bruce Perens have to do with any of this?
Does anyone have a link that bypasses the paywall?

Saturn would have been the perfect fit for Tesla to acquire.
Saturn's corporate culture, being something newer and different, would have been a good match for Tesla and Musk.

I'm sure the Zuckerberg knows exactly how much surpressing Qanon is going to cost him in ad revenue, and he's carefully weighing that cost against the potential damage of a regulatory blowback or the damage of ushering in a brave new world where facts don't matter and nobody believes anything.

This was obviously inspired by the events of 2016. The Clinton campaign colluded with the DNC to defeat Bernie Sanders and they held in reserve, the tactic of antisemitism. When leaked emails revealed the plan, they blamed "Russian Hackers" for giving the info to WikiLeaks instead of blaming the corrupt insiders at the DNC.
This policy seems obviously intended to protect people who engage in bad faith acts and don't have adequate security to keep the secret.

but this is exactly the kind of scenario that has led to me not allowing one of these devices in my house.

How is telling the truth interference?

Advocating violence against the untermenchen. He's calling for people to "do something about" Jews, blacks, Catholics and others that he considers inferior.
I'm a member of a minority. I take threats of violence seriously but "do something about" could very well have meant "organize and vote your interests".
