I believe the distinction is you have a right to copy for own use/backup but you don’t have the right to break the DRM preventing you from doing so.

For example, you have a right to make a copy of a video game (by installing it to hard drive) but DRM willl prevent you from running it unless you have the original disk in the drive.

It’s expensive being poor

Could be done, it’s a country in Europe. It reaches into Asia, but then again France reaches into South America and nobody complains.

Because you don’t know where this information will end up. Companies often get hacked and the information leaks out.

Your email, address, phone number can be used to spam and scam you.

Other information can be used to make scam you more effectively, or even scam your relatives if they sprinkle enough seemingly private information in it.

Ask yourself what you have yo gain from sharing information online, and remember that the internet never forgets.

It’s unusable without ads, so if you watch a lot of YouTube it’s worth to pay.

AGI could be possible if a new breakthrough is made. Currently LLMs are just pretty good text predictor, and any intelligence exhibited by them is because they are trained on texts exhibiting intelligence (written by humans) . Make a large enough model, and it will seem like an intelligent being.

That’s ableist. Not every voter can can get in the booth by themselves.

Age is no exception. Older voters lean conservative, while younger voters are more progressive. Age restriction is voter suppression.

There are a lot of adults who shouldn’t be allowed to vote, but in democracy you let everyone have equal say and don’t make arbitrary rules to exclude certain groups.

Are you a citizen, bound by law, or pay taxes? Then you have a say in who makes them.

Does bandana count?

Because some mice have a secondary scroll wheel, or the scroll wheel can tilt to scroll sideways
