Do you believe that it is a net-positive for society to see things this way? If so, can you put in the least bit of effort to explain as to why? You seem to be expressing an ideological belief that you have some god-given right to listen to

GDPR has nothing to do with citizenship, why would you even bring that up? Really, it even has nothing to do with residency. It's all to do with jurisdiction, when Elon happens to be within EU jurisdiction he is protected by the GDPR.

Planes are very often registered to individuals, and that doesn't even matter! The plane being company owned doesn't magically change anything, what matters is who's being transported and whether or not they will be easily li

GDPR has nothing to do with whether or not you live in Europe. The plane we're discussing here does frequently visit Europe.

Nowhere near this size though, and those selling bigger attacks on e.g. darkode would charge extra for the heat. If they're paying for the attacks, they must be paying closer to $1000 per hour.
