As far as the legal and historical precedent goes - we fought a war over it.

My wife has an iPad and one of the things I hate the most is that you can't install adblock extensions into Firefox on it like you can on Android. Which is a thing that has made using the browser on the phone wayyyy more enjoyable.

If only there were some kind of wear resistant coating we could put on bare metal, to protect cars, since they spend thousands of hours in moderately harsh environments over the years.

You could even make them colored, specifically resistant to the things they're likely to encounter on the road, and sun damage. Or maybe it could come in clear, if you want to show off the metal? You could probably even put many layers on it so it lasts a long time if one gets damaged!

Too bad we haven't invented something like that.

Won't someone rid us of this meddlesome judge?

Prior to collapsing, Rome achieved a sustained population in excess of a million people.

This did not occur again anywhere else until the mid 1800s.

The case where it was determined that a company has a fiduciary duty to share holders to maximize profit is up there with Dobbs and Citizens United in terms of damage caused to the fabric of society.

Look, Solomon's temple ain't gunna rebuild itself on the temple mount so we gotta support Israeli genocide until that happens, otherwise Jesus won't return.

Don't worry though, when he does, he'll assuredly take all the good christians to heaven AND exterminate those non-believing Jews so the problem will sorta solve itself. Means to and end and all that.

Can we just have a civil war already, I'd rather get it over with now than when I'm in my forties and in even more pain than I am now.

My cyberpunk solution is that once you cross the billion dollar net worth threshold, it becomes legal for a team of any size or an individual to register with the billionaire hunting office.

If a registered person or group is successful in killing the billionaire, all of their assets (including any managed by a trust on their behalf) are seized, liquidated, and distributed to the group.

Anyone paid to protect them, anyone affiliated with an organization paid to protect them, or anyone (regardless of affiliation or payment status) within a certain physical proximity to the billionaire is fair game.

Give it time, forced advertising is inevitable.
