And remember, if THEY have thousands of bots that each 'think independently' but still end up downvoting your post en masse, then that's totally fine. But if YOU try to upvote your post with one of your alts so it doesn't get buried, that's bannable.
the vast majority don’t care or they would have stopped using it a long time ago
It's a little disingenuous to claim people should've stopped using something that hasn't come to market yet. I was looking for other options when they started trying to force me to upgrade to Windows 11, but this absolutely is the last straw that I won't use Windows on my next computer.
You can create a partition on your hard drive and set your PC up to dual-boot. I have no idea if this is still widely used or if there is another, better/easier way, but it's what I did a long time ago for a hat simulator game.
I agree that those studies should be done. Studies should ALSO be done on people with unvaccinated covid infections, but we can't do that on a large number of people, because they're dead. The vaccinated people might have a 'non-zero risk for blood clots', but they're still alive in the meantime.
This was the same reaction I had when the Covid vaccines were rolling out. "They haven't been proven to be 100% safe and effective!" OK. Sure, but you know what is guaranteed to be bad for you? Covid. There are two choices here, and there's a clear mitigation of harm with one option over the other.
It's shocking that we'd rather see children die of treatable vitamin deficiencies than the off-chance that the food 'might be unsafe'.
We're not talking about any project though. In your case, it'd only be like an unaffiliated project specifically trying to imitate a project David Attenborough has worked on in an attempt to mislead people to think it could be David Attenborough. There's always room for parody, but you couldn't sell your voice as the 'Planet Earth' voice.
Lawsuits have been won by celebrities because a commercial used a lookalike, which still impacts the celebrity and their brand. They were in the wrong and didn't care.
She absolutely should sue, and I hope she wins. Their BS excuse of "It's totally someone else, but you wouldn't know her, she goes to another school. Also we have to protect her identity for reasons" is as blatant as it gets.
I remember one of l Hank Green's older videos when he added up all the viewtime from all of their videos and realized it was longer than the average human lifespan. Of course, he immediately framed it as "We've killed a man!"
