I for one is glad they will soon be unable to or have more difficulty to track us. As an example about a year or two ago I was shopping for a new vibrator because it keeps on disappearing and reappearing and with empty battery. No, do not even ask. Off topic. Anyway after I purchased a new one for my vibrator thief everyone in the house and friends who had used our internet suddenly started to get ads for sex toys. When I was in her age it would have caused me damage knowing how many people knew someone in the house had gotten a vibrator which everyone with the intelligence to open a door could figure out who it was.
Of course we use an adblocker but some of our friends doesn't and I can do math so I checked. Uncomfortable how easy it is for these companies to get private/sensitive info.
Too bad there are some adbloking features google refuse to implement.

"interfering in their official duties" - In the cops mind you not getting their good side they consider interfering. Just watch youtube of cops preforming illegal arrests, assaults, etc for simply recording them. The moment they notice you recording them their focus changes to the person recording them and they start to behave like children even more than usual by trying to block the view and such. I'm no lawyer but since it's legal to record them do they not break the law by preventing a lawful activity? Then we have something that's clearly illegal that they do. You recording from inside your car and they shine a bright light into your eyes, now that IS illegal. Doesn't matter if you are the driver or the passenger. It's strictly forbidden but they do it all the time.
Anyway cops play fast and lose with the law all the time. Interfering is up to the cop's judgement which they abuse as often as they can..

I'm pretty sure it's an overwhelmingly big no-no to record kids in parks and such to "do what you wish with it". Sure, the law say you're allowed but people will still call the cops on you and the cops will arrest you whether it's an illegal arrest or not.

"That's how I know there are unacknowledged medical problems with the AstraZenica vaccine"

There are several articles mentioning cfs/me and how to minimize risks with covid vaccination. So it's not unacknowledged at all. One way is to take a lower dose, wait longer between doses and take an extra injection to compensate for the lower dose given. It's also mentioned in the articles that the risk of getting vaccinated is worth it because if you get covid you have a higher risk of serious symptoms including death.

What medical problems did you have?

I've never had any issues with vaccines. All I get is a sore shoulder at the injection site which is perfectly normal.

I am however very frightened of needles. My clothes will become dripping wet. Have to go home, hang them up and take a shower and anti-anxiety meds to stop the shaking. I'll look pale and sick for over an hour afterwards. After the injection I have to sit on the chair for a couple of minutes because my legs will not support me. Not to mention days before the appointment I have to take sleeping meds so I can sleep. And I still get the vaccines that's recommended for me. If I also had gotten medical problems from them I'd still take them.

So I could be arrested if the threat of grandma coming is false if I scream in our house "GRANDMA IS COMING!" ? And watch everyone scrambling for their rooms, slamming doors and my wife running out the backdoor without shoes. She's not a nice lady to my family. She got nasty the moment I married another woman and she noticed we're happy. Some old people, a lost cause. My wife is stressing over covid lock down ending.

What the hell happened to and how do we prevent it from happening in other countries?

I would go even further and say "Peter Dutton is promoting rape with his actions". Why haven't he gotten arrested yet?! Isn't that illegal in Australia?

I don't even know how to access the GPS on my phone. I know it's there because my location shows up on google maps. Would have been nice if the SMS app had a share GPS coordinates button for people like me who can barely operate a smart phone. I can build servers and computers in my sleep and fix them but smart phones is my kryptonite. I get teased for it a lot. I miss my flip-phone.

In Sweden to use the SMS function you have to register with contact info and person number (Swedish version of social security number). 112 haven't had any issues so far with pranksters.

Sweden have SMS function but in order to use it you have to register with your contact info and such. This is to prevent pranksters.

Why not go open source and standardize 9-1-1 system ? That's the right thing to do.
Should be fairly simple. Lots of talented people out there and we all know linux simply works.

The hardware and to digital upgrade will be expensive but when you have the software that doesn't have expensive licenses you'll cut cost a lot and when everyone is using the same software the setup complexity will be low and compatibility issues don't exist.

There actually exist a real video of a person doing that and than the panic sets in when he can't get it out. At least he put it in a condom first. That's were his common sense ends. He had to go to hospital to get it out.
What is wrong with people?! Dildos and butt-plugs exist in abundance in various shapes and sizes but people look at a phone and thinks: "Oh that is going in the backdoor tonight".
Those medical reports read as if they were about 3 year olds putting stuff up their nose but they are grown adults doing this.
FYI: Apples have ended up in the backdoor too. These people are really motivated. We really need more ads talking about what causes rectal prolapse.

As in you threaten them to come to the gym and mention you're not vaccinated and got covid-19 and that you will touch as many equipment as possible when in the gym if they don't cancel immediately?
It'll work short term. Firebombing the place at night and use the unusable burned down gym as the reason to cancel works every time. I half-joke, I was thinking about it when on the phone with the gym.

My bank had provided a service were you can create a bank card with a max money limit. I used it whenever I had to buy something with bank card. Sadly they ended the service. The service was advertised as to prevent steeling of bank card and draining it and prevent sites from taking more money than they were entitled to. It was a damn good free service. Wish they didn't close it down.
What I did notice when using that service was that some sites flagged and prevented those generated bank cards from working when I typed in my address and e-mail address. Using a new bank card every time you shopped on their site they didn't like one bit.

The steam requirement can be overridden. That's how pirates do it. I have the source code of several flavors of ways to do it. I thought I'd need it some day so I saved it.
