Or are they?

Indeed.

Not every word in a conversation needs to be useful.

Every person on the planet is related to twins.

The walls are thick, and no one can access the front door of an apartment without going through that of the building first. I still prefer a house though, with a thick hedge around the lawn isolating you from the world. The real privacy downside with apartments is the windows, as they might be facing other apartments or the street.

There can’t be evidence if there is neither a crime nor an investigation.

> yards, large homes, greater privacy than apartments provide

Really? You don’t even have hedges around your yards.

But did they? Was there an actual investigation going on?

Evidence with regard to which investigation?

It has been standard practice for some time now in some European companies.

There is a difference between exploding a bomb and deleting your data. One is a crime.

> Let me explain: if an event or behaviour affects a person, it means that there must be a physical record of it.

That record needn’t be inside individual brain cells.

1,400 live streams, Japan... :D

Soviet Union did a fair amount of damage to the environment being a capitalist country.

I would like F to be inserted in the middle of the weekend, not at the end of it.

> A distinctly Western European perspective.

Well, "civilisation" is a Western European word for a Western European concept.

Is it though? Desiring such an end state sounds pretty stupid to me.

But not-very-bright evil people can’t?

Indeed.

Bezos doesn’t mind you thinking that the system is flawed and rigged and incentives bad behaviour.

Bezos is happy as long as you don’t abolish private property.

I mean, Americans have consistently elected these people, haven’t they? This is easy to mask as "evil", but…
