    I read this, don’t know if it’s true, that in the UK the sentence used to be “hang by the neck” but then they cut the rope before a guy died. He argued that the sentence was to hang by the neck, and the sentence was fulfilled. The judge agreed and from then on it was “hang by the neck till dead”. Might be totally made up but I want it to be true











  • Yes, I can. Even if they’re banned, they can easily get it. Buying that data isn’t exactly an insurmountable amount of money for a state actor. A couple tens of millions? Piece of cake. And also, they’re doing the same stuff everyone else is doing. So if we ban tiktoc guess we gotta ban Facebook, Twitter, etc… to keep the CCP’s hands off the data. And your point about TOS is a good one. Technically they’re not stealing it, hence the quotations. So yes, a ban is pointless. Especially if the argument is data security.
