Yes, you can. It’s called a chargeback. Companies hate it, because it’s a refund plus a fee/fine they have to pay for being awful. You just call your credit card company and ask them to initiate a chargeback. They’ll ask some questions about if/how you attempted to go through the right channels, how much time you allowed them, etc.

Re-builds USAID in full capitalism mode

I wonder what part of their Student and Family Guide to Success includes “peaceful protest will get crowd control ordinance used on you”. I’m sure it was for “officer safety” or some ACAB bullshit like that.

That’ll be a $100K fine, no fault admitted, no executives in prison. Calling it now.

The phrase “underage women” is the biggest lie mainstream media has pushed as part of all of this. These scumbags didn’t have sex with “underage women”. The raped children.

She was trying to do a fluff piece interview, and he was trying to drop hard facts. I’m glad he didn’t back down on his points.

Doesn’t matter. The companies will do it anyways and make you sue to stop them, at whic point they’ll exhaust your resources long before any potential victory in court.

Yeah, they are only cutting ties due to the attention. They’ll replace it with something just as bad, or worse.

IT loses the battle when the C suite says “do it now”.

Then they charge the child with fetal murder, or whatever Texas calls it.

It is, for sure. It’s even worse when you get pull requests from non-coders that think they can just point an LLM at GitHub and say “go fix this bug”.

Facebook shares that info for profit with no problem, why not do the same to actually help people?

Not to split hairs, but you have no right to privacy in public spaces.

It’s always been the case. Now it’s just transparent, vs. being baked into the price of the goods. When the economy sucks, vendors do stuff like this to try and soften the blow (for themselves).

WTF does Wall Street success have to do with the DOJ?

Deleting posts is just setting visibility to 0. They still exist, and you should assume they exist forever.

The best way to ensure privacy is by not buying spying equipment in the first place. Ring and Flock are two sides of the same coin, where Ring is driven by consumer choice, and Flock is just outright insidious. They both serve the same goal, and it isn’t public safety.

Of course. Th legal things you do today can be made illegal tomorrow.

Holy fuck, press F3 and delete your rant…

Yeah, it was immediately clear based on the scoring that he was super biased toward Discourse. It’s not a Discord alternative, and had no place in that list at all.
