I know it’s a bit naive to extrapolate from that, but something doesn’t smell right, the PC hardware market is clearly going through something, probably caused by the AI boom. I wonder what else is shifting that isn’t so apparent.

Honestly, opinions like this are the best anti-white propaganda around.

The entire thing reeks of the same Biden-era pressures on companies that had pandemic misinformation that Republicans were so vehemently opposed to. Somehow harming law enforcement is a better justification than harming random citizens.

I’d say the lack of sharecroppers, let alone slaves, and the right of women to vote and speak freely is positive.

I understand what you’re getting at, but you’re ignoring quite a bit of history that brought us to where we are today.

Government officials should be held to a higher standard, let alone a minimum standard of “don’t steal from the people.” A few years of house arrest and a suspension from politics is a light sentence when one violates that bare minimum standard.

It’s a pretty clear cut case of someone misusing governmental funds to further their political aspirations. Another way of phrasing that is corruption. Is a role of the courts not to prevent this? Is allowing proven corrupt individuals to hold office positive for a democratic institution?

Rob a bank and say you were just pentesting, but the stolen money wasn’t the motivator, it was the public good.

It's already suspect that they left out that key fact. It's extra suspect when it turns out they had personal connections to the accused.
