No reason the tax had to scale exactly to match the damage though. At least make it painful enough so people consider whether a larger vehicle is worth it.

I don’t think I’ve had a Pixel phone that survived much past the two year mark. They’ve all had various issues, either problems with the battery/charging or just dying altogether.
I still use them because you can get them for cheaper than most phones, but “longer lasting” is the last adjective I would use for them.
If the carriers it supports have poor or no reception where you live, it’s not really any specific person’s problem unless you somehow think that an individual is going to come with a solution on their own. Which seems excessive.
To be fair, didn’t it eventually come out that pretty much everyone was cheating? VW just got caught first.

Who is maintaining all these “unused” devices that you will want working pretty consistently? Who is responsible for replacing hardware when it dies? Who is looking into it when someone stops receiving messages? What happens when the person hosting thousands of users just stops wanting to do it? Who migrates these accounts?
Frankly, your argument sounds more like wishful thinking than anything practical. You’ve basically described the plan as “Magically some devices in someone’s basement will suddenly start running a messaging service, maintenance free, from now until the end of time”.
How does does decentralization avoid the costs that Signal laid out in the blog posts?

I seriously doubt it.
I wasn’t the one judging someone for posting complaints on the internet, while posting a complaint on the internet.
We’re all here “wasting time”.

How many working people are doing it not because of the money but solely because they enjoy the work?
And that’s when he learned that Netflix only supports 720p in the browser.
I believe on Windows you can use Edge to get better than HD.
Or literally doing anything else
Such as whinging about someone’s blog post apparently.

I’m sorry, I just find it funny that you walked back the “I’m done with Youtube” claim in the very next sentence.
