Yes, and surely these minorities are not treated like second class citizens? What's that? "A 2018 report by the Israeli State Comptroller on the protection of non-Jewish civilians found that 46% of Arab citizens in Israel lack acc

Conflating a scenario that will likely result in many deaths with leaking some customer emails is kind of crazy to me. How are they morally equivalent? Both are bad, but there is a significant difference in how bad IMO.

What a crazy take, I'm sure they love Kim Jong Un in North Korea too. In their shoes you'd manage to bring about regime change of course?

There's no world where that is a moral dilemma (for me, maybe it is for you?). The ends don't justify the means is not a general truth, is depends on the means and the ends. If the means is typing a word and the ends is saving mil

For me the difference is in the main utility of the app. If all it does is measure, there's no issue IMO, but Snapchat is specifically for sharing content with others. It'd be like having a speedometer or depth meter with a load o
