Why should the argument source matter? Because the whole point of social media is for people to communicate with other people. We want to share ideas with each other.

If all you can do is copy/paste, you're a failure. If you were in school, you'd fail for plagiarism. You're wasting electricity and wasting our time. Sorry.

Or, if all you want to do is share someone else's idea, just put a URL to the place where they said it. Don't pretend it's your contribution when it's not.

Right. UK lawmakers don't give a fuck about public safety. Haven't for decades. Meh.

Fuck Trump's shit talking. It's not news. Him being a pedo is, though.

Right but that's a pointless side discussion. English has fucked up grammar and spelling but it's a major global language. Cope?

A lot of cheap ones, my friend. Shop more.

Also, maybe they can't. Define the crime, please. Can't pardon for "everything", can you?

Haha that's backwards. The states can ignore it, and that is the challenge. Don't be dense.

Well look. Obviously there are security issues. JavaScript has its own share, PHP has an extra large share. The question has always been when the commercial businesses will decide that they need to fund the open source projects they rely on.

This depends on the laws of the country in which you reside. Generally speaking, you shouldn't sign something unless you know exactly what it says and you agree to it. If you don't speak the local language then you could either get a translator or a lawyer or both.

But in some countries there are protections for people who don't speak the local language well. For example, in Japan, there's an expectation that employers, and especially larger employers, will make relevant paperwork available in the employee's native language. And if they don't do so, they can end up losing in court, and this has happened many times in the past.

Of course, even if you're in a country where the law partly backs you, it's still ideal to confirm things as best you possibly can. You don't want to get screwed first, and then have to hire a lawyer and go to court. If that happens then that's what you do, but if you have a better option up front, take it.

The sky is falling... Except it isn't. Standard nonsense self advertising. And yes, vulnerabilities exist and canleasd to badness. We agree. It has always been so.
