They can’t have an opinion about privacy because they sell a service? :P

“I don’t trust you!” But they trust whatever NSA-agent looking at their private photos not to save anything for later…

Okay, the iPhone and the smartphones after it. Better? :)

Didn’t the iPhone come 2007?

The smartphone

There are no ‘no go zones’ in Sweden. It’s just an intentional misunderstanding by the far right party to fan hatred on immigrants. But nonetheless, there are areas which are for the worse socially and economically.

Just avoid Stockholm. Too many stockholmare. Visit Gothenburg instead

Graphene OS is about security, not privacy yeah?

Oh I do that too and I read somewhere that it’s pretty common to adapt different personalities to each language. I am by far more courageous and bold when have my English personality.

Winnie the Pooh brigade!

“No, thank you. And I wish that you refrain from contacting me again/about this or similar things.”

Since the republicans have been blocking aid to Ukraine one could extrapolate that this has somehow lead to the Ukrainians either having to risk their equipment more or not being able to protect it from capture I suppose.

How can one tell and why does it matter?

Well you claimed that sanctions always are meant as a collective punishment?

That is not entirely true. It depends on the kinds of sanctions. This is why modern sanctions have shifted from punishing the citizens in hope of them rising against the regime to pin targeting the leaders and the ruling class.

The catastrophe and starvation in Iraq (I think it was Iraq) changed how sanctions were used.

How so?

But how democratic is the process really if there’s no platform to voice different opinions (not saying that once a decision is reach not everyone should adhere it) and to form an independent opinion? It’s agree with us or else.

I can’t say I know how many of the Cubans are party members but I guess it’s not a majority of the population? And that’s what I mean when I say that the political power is aggregated to the party. Even if there was a free debate inside the party they still don’t allow competition for the power, just like the income or wealth limitations functioned to keep the proletariat away from power in the early days of democracy.

Well I’m not going to travel to Cuba for the sake of an internet discussion xD But it is true that political opposition is forbidden and the only allowed party is the communist, right?

Haha yeah in a sense maybe. But the authoritarian meaning is that there’s no free or equal competition for the power so I mean there’s quite a difference between states where there are authoritan and democratic countries.
