This is an interesting response. It makes me wonder whether the real risk of piracy to game publishers isn't so-called 'lost' sales, but having their control of the initial impressions window undermined by genuine critical reception*. Marketing efforts are seriously compromised unless they operate in an information void. Denuvo provides that void.

Sound advice, but if this article is any indication, corporate web2 now anticipates garbage. The junk presumably gets backfilled with their best attempt at quality data where it can be found. It true, it invites potential contributors to think carefully about their opsec.

The OS isn’t the reason anyone uses a computer, it’s the applications it can run.

When given two doors to choose from, desktop computing and mobile computing, most people aren't going to explore desktop alternatives to Windows. They're largely going to stick to mobile, with all the learned helplessness that entails.

Advertisers can pay more to stay in the room than you will realistically pay to have them expelled.

We don't want defed because it's a sledgehammer 'solution' that immediately denies us agency and reeks of Reddit-tier pre-emptive sub banning.

The Nazi Bar idea is for the most part a boogeyman.

People should consider using a double-blind scheme with cloud-connected managers.

The service you're setting a password for gets the actual credential, being two components , whereas the manager gets only

Consider the example of U})wJAL0}RhIr')Rgs{,&^>I3/ versus U})wJAL0}RhIr')Rgs{,&^>I3/based

It protects against password database compromise at least. Keyloggers, MITM, etc. are another matter.

I suspect a lot of users with silly warnings in their profile like OP described haven't bothered configuring their Upload/Download preferences. The tools for managing slot numbers and queue scheme (round robin v. FIFO) are all there.
