Ironically, the post intended to refute the original author's arguments ended up inadvertently proving their point.

The DC fire is usually contained. Fertilizer plant or a refinery is much worse.

Somehow, we’re still failing to realize that the most complex UIs - think CAD software, 3D editors, etc - are imperative, object-oriented, and written in C++. Their core development teams are usually very small. Yet you need a 20-person frontend team to deliver a primitive e-commerce app. It’s as clear as day that the promise of declarative and reactive programming is failing its users.
For some strange reason, most of the software I use is getting worse, not better.

Indeed, suing “the Capital” is more costly and difficult.
The authors are proud of facilitating the theft of intellectual property. Disgusting.
"We should have some caution in interpreting the findings in that cannabis consumption is usually associated with other substances such as cocaine or other illicit drugs that are not accounted for,"
So every VPS provider as well. Thankfully, these restrictive measures only lead to wider adoption of VPN technology among the general population. You end up with people who know how and are willing to use these circumvention tools, which is a very good thing for society in general. In Russia, for example, every slightly tech-oriented teenager knows Amnezia, VLESS, MTProto, etc., which leads to virtually everyone having a working VPN. Aside from turning the Internet completely off, the government has very few options left; it basically can’t restrict anything anymore.
Still, she gets her bonus for reducing the headcount
