Comments like this add nothing. This is not Reddit, please do not leave these types of comments.

I don't reddit, but I was giving my opinion as everyone does here. If you disagree with it fine, but I disagree it adds "nothing". It's pointing out the absurdity (with sarcasm) of these types of measures, touted as "protecting the people", if you disagree please cite why.

Your other reply to onmobiletemp is great. The goal is to have all comments on HN that - so that half the comments aren't jokes, memes, and overly hyperbolic sarcasm.

Please save these comments for reddit and facebook

Or better yet don't post them anywhere. There's no reason Facebook has to be a cesspool.

> no reason

Policing costs money, annoys the rubes.

Besides, how else are you going to find out what the servants are up to?

I will expound, these types of measures to "protect the people" are absurd, farcical, and generally do way more harm than good, causing ridiculous friction in the market that helps no one. This tariff only helps the inefficient.
