You really don’t see a difference between a single user citing wiki, vs a billion dollar company going to great lengths to squeeze every cent they can out of everyone involved when looking up information?

The same reason we don’t let companies sell photocopies of books? This isn’t a take on piracy, to be clear. This is a take on one company stealing content from another, and serving it up as if it were their own. And when Google has a monopoly on search, that fucks over everyone but Google, including you.

Who and why?

Those kinds of things are what people often take issue with Google about. Well, the second one anyway. The first is arguably not a search and is instead a calculation, but I admit that’s a little semantical.

The first however, is Google taking information provided by third parties, and presenting it to the user. It prevents traffic from flowing through to the original site, and is something actively complained about.

Wingdings is a font so… it already is.

You’re literally demanding that things which could not have yet happened, to have already happened. You’re talking in past tense about a future event, and getting mad at Biden for not having done something which could not have yet taken place.

Not all encryption is vulnerable to quantum.

Just want to take this opportunity to mention Trump was accused of literally ripping clumps of his ex wife’s hair out before raping her, in a deposition.

Why did you say “everyone has a target they are fine with genocide about” then justify it with a lack of protests, and protests not going anything?

You clearly stated something as fact, then went beyond moving the goalpost, playing a completely different game with your justification.

I can’t think of anyone in my communication circle that would ever shrug off genocide. Virtually everyone not taking part in genocide agrees it’s wrong, and anyone trying to justify it or saying “everyone is fine with it to some degree” is extremely suspect.
