Governments control everything.... they are slowly trying to block crypto too.

The Internet in 20 years will suck even more (they don't really like free speech even if they claim they do).

Edit: Since HN doesn't allow me to reply to the child comment because "I'm posting too quickly", here is the reply to CharlesW.

Stealing is already illegal.... I like how they don't know how to use current laws and flood us with new ones to make their job easier... The truth is that they think that Crypto-currencies are a threat to USD and are trying to stop them. The least they could do is destroy one law every time they add one.

> Governments control everything.... they are slowly trying to block crypto too.

I'm always amazed that anyone thought cryptocurrencies would somehow be the one form of currency that wouldn't be regulated.

It's clear that crypto can't self-regulate, and continues to actively hurt lots of people. As of July, $1.9 billion in crypto has been "stolen" — up 60% from a year ago¹, in quotes because we know a good percentage of these were inside jobs."

Since I realized that there was a lie on every U.S. dollar bill, I figured that lying was accepted. I still don't do it but I try to be less trustful.

Christianity is kind of a cult too, just more popular.

It's easy to delete old data that is never accessed, so I don't get your point...

Exactly, and we know that Google reads all emails going through.

Someone else is paying the attorney and there is information about me.

It's the main reason why I like gay people... they don't reproduce.
Re:Experts troubled by Canada’s euthanasia laws on Saturday August 20, 2022 @04:54AM (#32530510)
You could also try to make as many people gay as possible.

Its interesting to me every time a company goes down because of a cloud provider went down...

> Should I be posting my download speeds to keep them excited?

But either way, a website going down has nothing to do with download speeds. Unless you are talking about zero.

yes. it is not even about crypto. (to make it clear, I am truly serious and not sarcastic)

next thing, they'll make cash illegal like some other countries.

How are they going to justify the great expansion of the TSA otherwise? Just another branch of the police state.

The terrorists won. They got the US Gov. spending Trillions.

I hope I'm dead before this happens...

Very scary... We can see technology being used in the worst possible ways and there's not much we can do apparently.
