There's a problem with this "give them what they want and they won't pirate" when it comes to Spotify, yt music, etc: They can change the terms at any moment. AKA enshittification.
If you downloaded it or bought a CD? Ain't no enshittification.

Look the U.S. was kind of past our prime already, and we were settling into a slow decline. President Elon and his lapdog Donald just decided to shake the table so all the dominos fall at once, instead of slowly over time.
"Uh it's not about the house, obviously anyone who buys that will be bulldozing that house to build a new house, it's about the property location." The location: a swamp
When does our wake-up call come that this behavior, which keeps happening, over and over? Is also human nature. Like, we want to blame the leaders, and it is their fault...but not exclusively. We have parts of our nature we're unwilling to address. We want to cut it out like a cancer, which sounds great..but it's not a tumor.. it's everywhere...every country, every society... everywhere....
I appreciate that Android changed from an opt-out to an opt-in model when it comes to notification permissions, but it's still not enough. I can't believe the mobile OS world became so much worse than actual computing. What a corporate hell scape.
Canada going to be 52nd state--after Greendland 😆😆 (just kidding)
So, basically, you can be 100% sure that he has the ability to read your messages on other platforms.
I don't have a Tesla and I don't want a Tesla they are poorly made... But let's not pretend Elon made these cars, or made the rockets--he didn't. Engineers, scientists, and workers build everything we have. The only thing billionaires build is an economic siphon. When SpaceX succeeds? It's not because Elon did anything. Likewise, when they fail, it's also not because of Leon. He wants people to believe he's done all the things but he hasn't; engineers, scientists, and workers did. Not Elon.
Neat! Say, when did surgeons start washing their hands? Look it up ;)
