Someone posted in r/waymo a video of someone covering all the cameras with tape, which apparently immobilizes the self driving car. I interpreted that as non dangerous to actual people since it keep the car from moving at all.

Anyway, everyone in the comments was a circle jerk saying Waymo should come after the person legally. I suggested that big tech like Google and Uber may do more unethical things than this person putting some tape on a self driving car. Never did I once threaten violence lol.

    It is IP and they also do browser fingerprinting. After I got banned I made like 10 accounts and they all got banned no matter what IP I used to sign up. Finally I totally switched IP, browser, OS, everything and managed to sign up an account that didn’t get banned.

    I use my reddit account much more strategically now, rather than just hang out there and post comments about whatever. If I’m spending my time and effort, I try to make sure it’s really actually important to me and worth it knowing that my contribution is also helping that shitty company / platform.

    I also deleted every comment from 10+ years on my now banned account.
