Which is part of the reason the burden of proof is on them.

Are you seriously suggesting a police force will not secure a murder suspect’s phone as part of their enquiries?

Or that, if they didn’t, this would work against them in court later?

Do you not understand the concept of a defence attorney? It’s not just the police that decide what is and isn’t evidence.

Most users neither know nor care what that is.

I did say private individuals, Outlook is more of a corporate product.

YouTube should be fixing their buggy mess of a YouTube app, what a disaster. Every change they make, makes it worse.

I’m aware. Do you think these guys want to be martyrs?

That really nails it, I think. Tech is a hobby for some, a means to an end for the vast majority.

I’ve used my share of free software. Some of it worked well, but it always felt clunky, and just never as straightforward to use as a paid product.

But sure, I couldn’t possibly have reached that conclusion on my own, it’s obviously the marketing.

Christ this is such a Lemmy take.

The other option is users just not using tech at all.

I’ve said this before here, but techy people vastly overestimate both the ability and the patience of the typical user, and it’s the reason so few people use FOSS products.

Products from big tech aimed at private individuals are designed to be as simple to use as possible, which is why they’re so popular.

No, but they can certainly kill the Ayatollahs, and I don’t think they’re willing to die for the cause.

They quite famously killed the guy in charge, is what I’m getting at.

How many senior Taliban members are still alive from those days? The organisation persists, most of the leadership didn’t.

I really don’t think Iran’s leaders are that foolish, after what happened last time someone did that.

I’ve seen attacks where a hundred people were either killed or injured, they call that a car bomb. I.E, you need a vehicle to carry that much explosive.

Utter nonsense that a pager did that.

How is that even remotely possible? The users here will believe absolutely anything.

The best outcome here is these toys are a massive flop, and cost Mattel a bunch of money.

That’s the language these corps truly speak.

Who’s going to back up Iran though? Maybe the houthis, but they barely count.

They may try.

There would be more than just the US and Israel bombing them if that happened, you just don’t fuck with international trade.
