But you are cherry picking outcomes. Does a police force, an army, a functioning society align with your personal values? I agree government make mistakes, but that isn't an argument for getting rid of government, that's an argum

Australia doesn't have Fair Use provision because it doesn't need it. Australia allows use of copyrighted material for research/teaching purposes (up to a % limit). As in it isn't against the law at all. Where as Fair U

I don't think that's the case given a number of them are being sued by both Chinese and Foreign Broadcasters and media companies. Others are pivoting into netflix-esque licensing businesses. They are like to media companies what

I think you don't follow Chinese news very much. They are heavily effected by terrorist attacks, low and high tech. Also, I don't think China's position has anything to do with the peoples "fear" this is related to

That isn't secure information... Emails often contain that info, which is kind of worse than HTTP.

While you are right it is a false dichotomy. It isn't completely made up either. Greatness can (often) be achieved through abusively pushing someone to their limits... Like most elite sports athletes... Am I way off base thinking thi

... I'm pretty sure that is not the purpose of sports. The purpose from my perspective is: Advertising, Gambling, and entertainment. Since when has it been at all about exercise? Defensive Linesmen are hardly a "healthy exercise&

It's interesting that this a concern, as this is a greater level of privacy than what we've enjoyed anywhere else. I'm thinking in real world contexts.

The internet works that way, and you seem to be fine with that. :\ Is it the "saftey issue"? i.e the internet can't crash you into a wall, it can only send you to rotton or steal your credit card...

I haven't really read the "outside foreign forces" line in chinese press. Where did you see that? Chinese understand their government and the Hong Kong situation. So I don't know why the government would need to lie ab

There is a weird "Us and Them" vibe from your comment. Is the US/Australia/Uk's treatment of Julian Assange (as an example) not count as "oppressive regimes" and "...dissidents, protesters, and politi

> Until most Chinese start believing their government is evil, and that there is a much better, more free way to live, not much will change. Is their government evil? It seems to me that their government has been hugely successful in bri

Apologises, I was a bit flippant, I merely meant fair-use wasn't a 'right'. It was instead a 'defence'. Saying it was like self-defence, was incorrect. You are correct. But my point is, it is unlike other countri

If it was not 'for-profit' and public. It could be shared more freely. Meaning you'd ideally have a global effort towards drug R&D. This would easily dwarf any number the current US pharmaceuticals invest, or the NIH b

"Fair-use" is a legal defence, when you get sued. Just like 'self-defence' is a legal defence if you murder someone. It does not mean you have the right. (Like in countries like Korea, or Australia, where you do have th

Could an alternative DNS system fix this? Tor for DNS that both masked the lookup and the resulting IP would stop any type of filtering/blocking/take down etc? Coupled with https, to stop packet inspection?
