Yeah - but how would they know what is legally enforceable or not? It's really complicated and I don't think it's reasonable to assume people have access to a clear answer on enforceability and certainly not an answer they co

In a sense, yes. However, I think the farmers in this analogy were more willing/able to be nomadic in the earlier days of osx and ios apps, where now they are much more likely to make the land their permanent home. This could be becaus

My intention was to show why comparing the two things you mentioned and claiming the comparison is outrageous was not a reasonable dismissal of OP's concern - because they were talking about the similarities of society predicated on we

The negatives need not be so similar for the two to occupy the same space of vast property ownership concerns - namely that a single person has what many consider to be a troubling amount of wealth and power. EDIT: sentence structure change

It's a little tone deaf to offer "should've done it this way!" as advice to a person already in a bad way. Unless OP is asking for better processes to avoid this in the future, I think it's not a good idea to offer

I think you might be too YOUNG to get it. I think older people love the idea of interacting with a computer with voice - it's way easier for someone to get a quick answer with voice if they're otherwise unfamiliar with navigating

I think that was his point, he's critical of Amazon because they lied about their reasoning for not carrying the products, not questioning the legality of not carrying specific products. I thought that was obvious, and a charitable int

It's not reasonable to assume that a human changed their mind that quickly. The idea of putting out an offer with the intention of changing your mind and letting a computer handle that process cements the point that its not a change of
