Put all your precious documents on the disks and then rub a magnet on each one of them to make sure they are properly energized. The stronger the magnet the better.

Nestle, Microsoft, Reddit, Roku, Meta, X, Google (as much as possible). I would boycott so many of them if it was possible, but I particularly avoid those because I especially hate them.

Huuumm, I don’t know. This whole thing gave birth to that garfield picture. Personally, I’d call that a win.

I worry some safe spaces for specific mental illnesses will take quite some time to emerge in here since they are very “niche” communities.

I think it can be very important for some people to engage with people who share the same struggles. I would totally understand if some people decide to keep using reddit for that sole purpose.

I am not surprised. Currently, France’s democracy is being challenged by its current government. They also tried to outlaw filming the police in 2020 (luckily the law didn’t pass). Recently, they constantly used special laws to pass their laws even if they don’t have majority in parliament (especially their retirement law even if 70% of the population and 90% of the workers didn’t want this law to pass). They are trying to push a biometric mass surveillance law for the 2024 Olympics. The way the government has been dealing with the recent protests has been heavily criticized by Amnesty International. Police violence has been over the top (the Saint-Soline water protest was literally a war zone) and countless unlawful arrests including unjustified police custody have been done.

It’s a real shit show.
