when are they gonna learn that any client-side restriction or hindrance can and will be defeated? sleep(5000) is kinda like them throwing a fit, not actually trying to punish anyone. obviously we'll find a way to avoid waiting the 5s, do they think we'll just give up?

what is it with chinese-made games and extremely invasive anticheats
hijacking update channels is a possibility but as the other guy said very unlikely
I don't think it's paranoid to not want any intermediary to know what you're talking about, even if all you're talking about is innocuous things like groceries.
Besides, they don't have to "waste time" on anything. They've got computers to collect it all.
Of course, like you said, Signal or Matrix are potential solutions for that, but you still need to get both sides to agree on using them. SMS have the advantage that everyone has a phone number and can thus use them. Upgrading to RCS will secure this insecure-yet-very-popular medium.
Is there zero risk or do you think there is zero risk? Text messages can absolutely be intercepted by your service provider
Why not both? Digital is obviously better but analog is painfully simple hence it'll probably be the medium used for transmitting emergency alerts
Stop trusting your messaging platform and use this other messaging platform! Matrix can be less secure than Signal if used improperly

yeah like hell i will. remember to protect yourself with something like fawkes when posting pictures of your face online, fellas.
Looks like Spain is still trying to revive this but so far it's a proposal to start a discussion on whether it should be introduced, so still far from actually becoming law. Like I said, keeps haunting us every now and then.

Thankfully outdated but keeps coming back to the parliament/commission every now and then. Someone should just kill it already, I mean it's pretty obvious it's in direct contradiction with Article 7 of the Fundamental Rights Charter of the EU
now that the government separated the UK from the EU they should put propellers up their asses and push their pathetic island between russia and china if they wanna pass laws like that

Re-rendering 4k videos (or of any other quality fwiw) with ads included would probably incur more electricity costs than they could ever make through the ads. TV could afford to do this since they transmit the same program and the same ads to everyone. Youtube targets them per user, so they'd need to render the same video, in high quality, every time any user clicks on it.
