Why would I care. If they think it’s profitable, I have no arguments against it. I’m not paying attention to the ads anyways.

The traditional web was long gone anyways. There are like a dozent sites you find for any Google query. It’s so hard to find small hidden treasure on the internet.

You can’t say something like that without bringing forth some arguments…

I didn’t even know about that until now. But how does that affect AI and websites?

I do backup like 1TB off-site. But it would still be a major blow if I lost the rest of it. I just try to live with that risk I’m fully aware exists.

I do weekly ZFS snapshots though and I’m very diligent on my smart tests and scrubs. I also have a UPS and a lot of power surge protection. And ECC Ram. It’s as safe as it gets. But having a backup would definitely be better, you’re right. I just can’t afford it for this much storage.

I don’t have Avengers 4K. It’s all just Linux ISOs.

In theory. But I already spent my pension for those 64TB drives (raidz2) xD. Getting off-site backup for all of that feels like such a waste of money (until you regret it). I know it isn’t a backup, but I’m praying the Raidz2 will be enough protection.

I’m just skipping that. How am I going to backup 48TB on an off-site backup?!

This is ages old

Hold on, racism? We are talking about racism? Did I miss something?

So why do you trust any company? Every company has people like that employed. Do you make a political-views check on every employee of a company before choosing your product?

I bet every company has at least one employee with right-wing political views. Choosing a product based on some random quotes by employees is stupid.

Maybe you should reconsider your threat model. You seem to be very light on information. If political views is an issue than you’re the issue.

If your threat model depends of political idiologies then you should reconsider your threat model.

Why is it bad though? This business is in no form related to politics. It wouldn’t change fundamentally even if Hitler ran it.

I’d use their VPN even if Hitler owns it. It’s private, secure and they stand to their values with respect to that. Why would I care about political views? Politics don’t change the service on a technical level. Literally don’t give a shit.

I know you enjoy hating on Reddit but what you’re saying doesn’t make any sense. Reddit is an advertising business. Bots don’t view advertising but adds infrastructure cost. Additionally, humans are way better at engagement with the platform and people than bots.

It’s in their best interest to suppress non-human conversations. What are you talking about?

Their current structure is still profit-oriented. You should read the article maybe.
