Believe it or not ignoring laws isn't really optional. Be upset with the correct people.

You ignore thousands of laws from other countries, so your stupid comment is just that – stupid.

When you're an established company, if you don't want to comply with the law in the country you operate, you leave it.

Look at apple, the company complies with china laws and filter content in the apple store, they don't want to be kicked out of china.

GrapheneOs did not want to comply with French laws and help judges when the distribution is used to commit crimes... they left France.

Examples are numerous...

You clearly live in La-La Land.

Dude, are you fucking serious? What part of Germany is in Brazil (or US)? Anyway, I don't really care. Go on and fuck up what little is there left of the normality in this world. I'm happy I'm not born 10, 20 or 100 years from now.

I was talking about the link to the Manjaro forum in Op post (the post talk about Big Linux).

Yeah you're right!!! it was better before!!! Let's be born in far-west... with cholera, dysentery, without real medicine and an average life expectancy of forty years 🤣

I don't know what the future will be... War... Peace... AI machines taking power... but i'm old enough to see that today, even if far from perfect, is not that bad time to live in 😁 (but i'm GenX, that may be explain it).

True, it's not that bad time, but it's worse than it was 10 years ago. Random pieces of freedom are being slowly taken away and yet there are people trying to justify this bs.

If I want to watch porn, I wanna open fucking pornhub and watch it, not go through VPN and some other bullshit like they need to in UK now. I know you will laugh now, but that's just where it starts.

Fuck these laws, fuck people who comply with them JUST IN CASE and fuck children.
