And centralization solves this how? The other social networks are giving more checkmarks to grifters and scammers than they are giving them to honest people because, spoiler alert, con artists are very good at both building a following and paying bribes.
I think they just figured out they can offload the modernization of old games to the community. People will still have to buy the game to get the assets needed to play it legally.
Of course it’s feasible, that’s why there are courts. And even if they lost in court they could leave the British market instead of complying. But Apple will always kiss boot no matter how much they tell their cult otherwise.
As much as there were parts of Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, and even the Soviet Union that preferred to be part of Germany than part of the country they were in 1939.
When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.

Good on your sister for not losing track of what makes her happy. Not doing things just because they are “childish” is the most childish trait an adult can display.
Except in some countries (I believe the US included) you are not supposed to delete them, since the law says you should quarantine them (i.e. remove them from the platform, but keep them as evidence somewhere else as evidence) and call the police. Then they would be in the middle of a CSAM investigation, which would be really disruptive if there isn’t a relatively big team behind the service. And then it would require handing a bunch of user data to the police, which is a deal breaker for lots of users. I don’t blame admins that are running the instances on a volunteer basis for not wanting to deal with all that.
A new study published in the journal Astronomy & Astrophysics suggests the satellites are emitting "unintended" radiation from the electronics onboard the satellites.
These low-frequency radio waves, are being picked up by telescopes designed to scan that frequency range. That's because this range also happens to be instrumental to deep space observations.
New evidence strongly suggests that OceanGate's submersible, which imploded and killed all passengers on its way to the Titanic wreck, was unfit for the journey. The CEO, Stockton Rush, bought discounted carbon fiber past its shelf life from Boeing, which experts say is a terrible choice for a deep-sea vessel. This likely played a role in the submersible's tragic demise.
