Yes, some "sides" of some issues are objectively false. But the problem is that even where facts are not in dispute, the mainstream press's strong left-bias influences the facts it chooses to emphasize and the…
I agree that cutting the stream was the best thing to do in this situation. But if you want to troll people about lacking reading comprehension, try fixing your grammar and punctuation first?
The reaction to this ad is predictably absurd. The far left's constant push to draw increasingly unremarkable positions like "US jobs should go to US workers" as beyond the pale is why we're stuck with Trump. For my…
Nervous? Not at all. My point is, it isn't my responsibility to ban them or take any other action on my end. That's a problem to be resolved between the EU's governments and its citizens.
No, if I want to have a physical presence in the EU I have to follow EU law. But if I'm residing entirely in another country, and EU citizens want to do business with me over the internet, I could care less what EU law…
> You might just wake up one morning with your bank accounts frozen and your credit cards revoked if you violate the GDPR. Please, spare me. I'm no more worried about EU laws than I am about China seizing my accounts…
I would continue to do nothing special to support the EU's provincial laws. If EU citizens want to send me money, fine. If the EU decides to block its citizens from doing so, that's also fine. But I will take no actions…
I have no business assets connected to any EU countries, and I don't have any desire to cross any EU borders. So I will continue to enjoy life in my home country and ignore your provincial laws.
Exactly, that's the distinction.
No, you're confused. Google has a physical presence and business partners in Europe; I do not. (Profiting from EU citizens is beside the point.)

Right, hypothetically if I were to physically enter the EU I could expect trouble, and that's the EU's right. But in the meanwhile, if EU citizens wanted to do business with me, that's not my problem. I basically agree…
A lot of the GDPR's provisions are admirable, and fundamentally good for citizens. I'd like (some) similar rules in my country. I just wish they'd drop the absurd pretense that the EU is somehow capable of imposing…
What makes you imagine your government has any jurisdiction over me? EU citizens can choose to use services offered under other countries' laws, or not. The EU can choose to implement their own Great Firewall to block…
Yet it is fundamentally incorrect. I'm not an EU citizen, so I have zero reason to care about their laws. I will simply ignore them, and the EU has no recourse, other than possibly mandating that their ISPs block me or…
It isn't my responsibility to block them, or to take any action whatsoever to comply with another country's laws.
> This regulation is not limited to companies based in the EU—it applies to any service anywhere in the world that can be used by citizens of the EU. That's fundamentally incorrect. As a non-EU citizen, I reject the…
Widening our spheres of empathy means we can't predicate empathy on finding a label that fits people into an orthodox feminist understanding of privilege. The key takeaway from Farrell's book is that men also suffer. We…
Companies will always comply with valid warrants for data in their possession, and it would be ridiculous to expect them to do otherwise. What made this case different was that it was not about a simple warrant for data…
Thanks for the explanation.
Am I missing something here, or is there no reason the FBI couldn't desolder the 5C's Toshiba NAND flash chip, read its encrypted contents, and perform the desired offline brute-force attack themselves? The key…
It seems the Justice Department admits that Apple's reputation for privacy and security is of great value to the company. I wonder how it intends to argue, then, that forcing Apple to create a corrupted build of iOS…

I haven't done a ton of reading on the movement, but I can point to Warren Farrell as a thoughtful author who has important things to say about men's issues.
