You're also leaving out Ukraine asked us for help. Yea, the U.S. does in fact have the RIGHT & moral obligation to help a fellow democracy and ally when they ask for help defeating an invading dictatorship.

Edit: Oh of course a Russian would be upset that the U.S. is helping Ukraine repel their invasion.

Umm, Putin literally gave a "blood & soil" speech before invading. Do you think the mass graves found are also fake?

I highly doubt this kid was civil in that forum post.

Idk why you think you should be able to login to a cloud SaaS product while its down. From your comment here I highly highly doubt you were at all even remotely civil in that forum post $12 a month doesn't mean you get to be an asshole to people. Not all forms of Auth can be done locally, for example most 2fa requires server access.

viro··on Apple says they're removing my game because it's more than 2 years old
> The customer-breaking changes are coming from Apple, not the app developers.

They literally said that. Form factor changes will break apps if devs refuse to update.

viro··on Apple says they're removing my game because it's more than 2 years old
Or they don't want customers downloading apps that don't properly support their devices. makes the customer experience suck.

That sounds like a valid reason to require you to submit a new build. it came out in 2017 and most iPhones follow that build style now.

viro··on Sex workers can't order DoorDash because of cross-platform surveillance

I bet you it had something to do with doordash gift cards from clients/viewers, which would trigger fraud "stuff".
viro··on Update on StoreKit External Entitlement for dating apps
It doesn't help that most devs are actively user-hostile. So yea I would rather trust Apple than some random dev that wants to make it as hard as possible to cancel that 3-day trial he just gave me. then charges $9.99 a week .... I'm looking at you plink.

viro··on Sen. Warren Announces Sanctions Compliance Bill for Crypto Companies
Oh, you seem to be missing that right now those laws are up to the banks. When you remove the banks that makes every node liable for those laws. You having bad tech that makes it hard for you to follow the law isn't the laws problem.
viro··on Sen. Warren Announces Sanctions Compliance Bill for Crypto Companies
I think you have a core misunderstanding on how the "monopoly on violence" works. Ur device touches port 8333 and 18333 you go straight to the gulag. That port changes that rule changes. Tech isn't above the law, ur not a sovereign citizen.
