The depressing fact this is already in their calculations really suggests fines should be vary based on a percentage of the company’s profits, not a set number for all.

Bingo. Which is why they comfortably hide using the infighting of the two party system. One party has to be willing to accept they’ll be doing most of the work to fix the situation. Up until now, they wanted us believing the task is Sisyphean and impossible, the truth is we can easily catch them with their pants down.

It actually isn’t, but those in charge know our legal system works so slowly. So the companies already know they just have to delay and they’ll only pay a percentage of a fine for swindling patients. And instead of being accused of robbing, their legal team will get charges lowered and the company will just change its name and start over. Until the punishment fits the crime, the rich scams will continue.

Referencing what the user you’re responding to is actually going on about. Seen him remark on this at least once before, a few days back and realized when I saw his user name.

His Lemmy server blocks the IMGBB service, it was used in trolling 6 months back. So he’s insinuating all traffic from there, is at risk of being child porn or questionable.

But you could be on something, perhaps he somehow avoided the brilliance that was, King of the Hill.

Bingo. Sure, there were Redditors using IMGBB to post porn on Lemmy, but completely writing off the image server over the actions of bad apples is overkill.

It’s like fundraising, if you have to ask if they fulfill their promises, you should know it won’t be long before you hear they didn’t. Besides, this sounds like a con from the way they describe it. So yeah, that’s gonna be a no from me, dawg.

So, public espionage, no one sane should accept this behavior for something they paid for.

No problem, always glad to get someone out of the curse of the monthly modem fees. 😂

Canceling Apple TV over this, knew they were spineless, but this is pathetic since it’s one of the few shows I watch on it. Growing really tired of all these service subscriptions as it is.

The bottom left guy looks a little like a North Korean Tom Hanks.

I don’t use PIA, but for anyone also wondering, what VPN for you suggest investing a subscription for? Any why?
