How would increased taxes help the employees?

Do you think the corporate world (that effectively runs governments) is going to regress or go back to "let's all make less money"?

Sorry I'm not smart enough to understand what you're inferring.

Corporate tax rates go up, company lays off workers and moves to a less-taxed jurisdiction.

Man, everyone is hopping on the Trash Signal Bandwagon, even though TG is less secure, and nobody (the 99%) uses Threema.

If they understood what the words "peaceful protest" meant, there would have been little need for additional laws.

Rioting is not a protest. Burning homes and businesses are not protected speech.

The government should never be in control of a means of free speech. You know who has Government-controlled internet?

Russia
Iran
China
N Korea
India
Some EU countries
Turkey
Etc.

I imagine a bad actor could buy a custom domain, connect it to proton, and then spam millions of people from thousands of addresses, using Proton's infrastructure?

What is the # limit on a custom domain?

Interoperability law that only applies to one company. Neat.

At least the Brave guy's site included many popular browsers and not just the big 5.

Are you saying the information presented is somehow incorrect?

@dukethorion@lemmy.world avatar

Well, there's a good chance that most people who present technical information publicly are probably involved somewhere in the tech space. Pretty sure the owner of that site also has a disclaimer stating that he in fact works for Brave.

More directly, is the information on that website inaccurate? Could any other person create a similar website with the same information? Has anyone?

True facts don't change based on who presents them. Every time I see this "oh don't trust the Brave employee" it's usually someone who is mad that FF isn't the best in whatever category.

I spent a few hours trying any alternatives I could find on FDroid, even Aurora and just blocking network access.

Lawnchair has a giant empty space on the dock when you hide the search bar, wasting screen space.

Ended up back on Nova.

We need more options. We don't need any more "minimalist" text launchers though.

Well, the euro in your bank account is owned by the bank (they have custody) and nominally assigned to you.

A digital CBDC euro would be owned directly by the government, kept in an "account" controlled directly by that same government, which then they will allow you to use "your" (their) money.

The differences would have been more obvious 50 years ago when bank balances weren't just numbers on a screen like today.
