  • I feel like people need an education about the difference between spirit of the law and letter of the law.

    This comment reads like this:

    “I posted some truly heinous shit and a mod/admin removed it but I didn’t break any written rules therefore my right to force other people to be subjected to my desires was impinged upon😭😭😭😭.”








  • Even if we grant you your invalid position, you are still wrong. So close. You claim the unborn person has rights, but so did the mother.

    In no legal jurisdiction in the United States is one person ever required to give up their bodily autonomy for another. This the mother, according to your argument, is under no legal obligation to provide the other person, according to your argument, the mothers body for any reason. If the mother wishes to discontinue the use of her body she can. If the other person dies as a result of this decision, the mother bears no responsibility.

    This is well understood case law and common law.

    GTFO with this terrible argument.


  • Separation of data between accounts makes them fall under different retrieval requirements.

    As one account, a request for all of the data from that account contains both chunks. Separation of those accounts separates the need to accommodate requests for data from one on the other.

    It can also mean that internally they may have a sufficient mechanism that data that was previously identifying to no longer being identifying (breaking userid to data pairings for example) which is sufficient to “anonymize” the data that it no longer needs to be reported or maintained.


  • GDPR and pii reasons most likely. It’s a nightmare keeping track of why certain data is on certain accounts. This can vastly simplify the GDPR compliance mechanisms. If your GOG account is merged with your PR account, there is probably significantly more “sensitive” data (CC numbers, addresses, etc) in the GOG account. This probably exempts some data that either cdpr or gog tracks from deletion or retrieval requests.








  • This will do the opposite of what you want. All of these policies disproportionately cause poor people to remain poor.

    It’s not intuitive and it sounds great till you realize that unless you tax wealth and income with a progressive rate well into the 90% at the highest levels.

    People who are wealthy don’t give a single shit about consumption tax. They also don’t care about transaction taxes (unless it’s progressive). A person with a million dollars doesn’t care if milk costs 5 bucks or 6 bucks a gallon… But the person making the minimum wage absolutely cares.
