Because your 0$ per month after dropping them doesn’t hurt their bottom line.

Corporations generally weigh the risks and the benefit often wins out and they make more money because there are enough people that either reluctantly cave into the fee increase, forgot about their subscription or just don’t care that it’s going up.

It’s fairly seldom (but seems to be increasing over the years) to see so much backlash that a company walks back on what they were planning to do.

That’s some deep fried history right there.

They probably will if they get a takedown request.

I’m guessing you are uploading US related material by your comment.

If you are concerned about it, like maybe you have an account that you don’t want to lose, then make another account and upload it.

You are right, it’s really not cut and dry in today’s age.

Could be something like the way I have my son’s tablet setup. If he tries to install something, I get a notification to approve it on my phone.

I can disable or enable the device at any point and have active times setup on it so it automatically does that if I’m not manually managing it.

BUT, that requires the parent to be actively engaging in what their kids are doing while trying to not be helicopters over them. You can setup home networks to block stuff like that also, but that requires some technical knowledge that a lot of people may not want to deal with. Also, that has no bearing on what is done outside of the home.

Also the age of the kid is a huge factor, a 13 year old is going to have a higher ability to get around those restrictions.

So now we’re at the point of basically saying, there’s not a really good defined way of doing that. However, if we ask for a copy of your ID, that’s adds a decent protective layer. BUUUT, that’s going to throw up red flags to everyone who wants to protect themselves and doesn’t want their info out there like that. Which we all know there are data breaches and bad actors out there (like Tesla employees sharing videos from people’s cars) so it’s reasonable to not want to provide stuff like that.

Now at this point we’re kinda back to square one what can be done to manage this, be secure, and appease both sides of the table?

That’s a really fair point.

My wife is Asian and I definitely understand the conservative side of many Asian cultures, also the immigration policies as I lived in Asia for almost a decade.

Sometimes it can be hard to see the different viewpoints when you aren’t directly affected. For one reason obviouly, not being Asian myself (mixed but I’m basically white), and two, even having many Asian friends but never actually really discussing politics with them.

I really appreciate the time you took to give some external viewpoints to things.

Yup,

Strangest thing to me is that I know quite a few Asians that immigrated here that are super Trumpers. I just can’t even grasp how.

Also, interestingly enough, I also happen to work in a very right leaning field, and the majority of the republicans here have been very quiet since the Jan 6 incident. There was only one who was pretty outspoken about it, and he quit recently.
