Pornhub is only pulling out to punish the states for trying to stand up to them. In classic American monopoly fashion they go on the attack as soon as any legislation targets them.

Pornhub claims the reason is because they dont to collect government ID but Pornhub collects user data and understands who their customers are. Adding government ID to their data would hardly be anymore of a privacy invasion and it's not like they are forced to store it.

OK

Law maker enacts legislation towards a company. The company is able to comply but instead the company pulls the service or severelyndegrades it. Then when users are pissed off the company will point to the law maker and say "they forced us to do this". The law maker then suffers the blacklash of companies service withdrawal.

Apple tried this with the EU usb c but eventually backed down. John deer tried this with right to repair. There are many cases where companies use these tactics to try and bully law makers away from regulating them and I think i know it's legal and their right to do so but I find it gross.

I don't think the law makers should be solving the "problem" this way but I also don't think pornhub should deny service from an entire state because they want an an ID check implemented.

I do this when eating food I don't like and I used to be a very fussy eater. I was at my friends house and she cooked food and I was forcing it down to be polite and she asked if I liked the food. I said yeah its really good and she burst out laughing because apparently my face looked like I was eating a war head. She said I can tell when you don't like something because you always scrunch your face. Apparently I used to do it in conversations as well.

Doesn't the US mine a lot of its own cobalt. If this is being caused by a boom in demand its probably from Chinese electric vehicle demand.

Fizz , 1 month ago

Oh my bad. I was completely wrong about America producing cobalt locally. It does seem they import most from Africa.

I did get figures that support my statement that most of the demand is driven by China. I checked through 2021, 2022 and 2023 and China is a large majority of the demand and demand increase. America makes up less than 10% of global ev sales and their demand is not "booming" when compared with the Chinese ev demand increases.

Here's a paragraph that outlines what I'm saying. Ev now accounts for almost half of all cobalt demand and is increasing year on year.

the passenger segment accounted for 87% of EV demand in 2023 and is the largest demand
driver over the forecast period. Global passenger EV sales rose to 13.8 million
units in 2023, up 33% y/y – a fall from 58% y/y growth in 2022. Of this, China (7.9 million), EU
(3.5 million) and the US (1.4 million) accounted for 93% of sales. - cobalt institute market report 2023.

It doesn't matter because China will get to that level soon. They're progressing very rapidly through a booming research and espionage sector

Fizz , 1 month ago

My bad. I swear I had seen articles saying Chinese cpus were catching up. I went back and looked at those articles and the articles basically provide 0 evidence or benchmarks so you're probably right that there is a significant gap that isn't likely to close anytime soon.

The other 10% is bragging about how strong their unhealthy behavior makes then.

The guy has a stick and is protecting the tree so he is actually doing him a huge favor by allowing him to work for a coconut. Working is a win win here.

The alternative is the guy gets no coconut and has nothing to do.

They really don't provide enough to back up the insane claims they're making. I would take all this with a massive grain of salt as it's most likely bullshit wartime propaganda designed to stir people up.

Makes sense. There is no way you let a foreign adversary control an app that serves 100m of your citizens emotionally charged shortform content.

That would similar to the ccp owning every major American news network combined.

Fizz , 2 months ago

Im curious if you think it would be OK for ccp to own to own CNN and fox news and control broadcasting for hundreds of millions of Americans.

I never said the us was any better. im very aware of the us influence on the internet. But there is a big difference between the us and China and say the us and britan or the us and (any small country that isn't allied with the us but is to small to go independent).

Adversarial nations that are big enough to break free of FAANG company already have. Russia and China do not what the us dominating their social media landscapes. Why would the us allow China to dominates its social media landscape when they can ban it and supplement it with companies that are within their governments arms reach.

Fizz , 2 months ago

It is creepy on a personal level. But it makes sense for an influential nation like America to own their own media. From a national security point it makes sense because American corporations have to comply with the American government. This also extends to America's allies who also operate in the space by as much smaller players.

Is it not perfectly fine to fire people who think it's OK to come into an office and disrupt work for 9 hours and force law enforcement to be called. I can't think of a single place that wouldn't sack me on the spot for doing that.

I'm not fully aware of us protest laws but i was under the impression to protest you had to do it on public property. Seems like this is blown out of proportion because the writer agrees with the cause.

Would a union be able to do this? I feel like a union doing this would be just as bad but Google might hesitate to fire them due to union backlash.

I am pretty sure they could sue for wrongful termination if they conducted their protest properly and respectfully. You can't fire someone for exercising a right.

I was suprised to see a headline of 6k people fired over 4 years being called significant and then realised the only reason this article exists is because it's Twitter staff being fired and this journalist is obsessed with Twitter and thinks every person there is a special soul who should be indefinitely employed.

Elon specifically said he was going to reduce the size of Twitter. Firing 6k people is not a surprise nor is it negative news. The "job creator" in quotes probably refers to the 200k+ people employed across his 5 companies.

The focus should be on firing employees for trying to unionized because that's the only egregious part.
