I've never really used them as most content I can find readily available on public sites. I do want to get access to the World Boxing Video Archive one day as that is an area that seems to be pretty barren on public sites, unfortunately it seems that the registration is forever locked. Maybe I'm wrong but they all seem pretty pointless unless you have some pretty niche tastes in which case they can make a whole lot of sense.
Possibly, but it's unlikely we will ever hear the facts of this case, I mean we still haven't had confirmation that the misconduct was even sexual in nature, it was first reported as him bullying a reporter if I'm not mistaken and without the facts we can't say what motivated her to reject the settlement offer.
While it's suspect on the surface, offering a financial settlement is a very common tactic in regards to avoiding backlash, regardless of whether you are actually guilty or not. Now I'm not saying for a second that him being cleared must mean he is innocent, but the money being offered really isn't evidence of any guilt like you'd think it would be.
They have to make it as accessible a headline as possible, especially when most don't read past the headline anyway these days. The average person probably doesn't have much of an idea as to what 125TB looks like in real world use.
I would think that there were very few people doing that overall. I'll have to find the articles again but they suffered a massive drop in sales, it's possible though that those sales figures have since recovered but I don't have that info on hand.
It's so effective, but you just can't expect to get everyone on board sadly. Unfortunately it seems that there will always be those that value the convenience of Amazon, for example, over pushing for real change. Look at Bud Light, I hated the reasoning behind the boycott but it showed just how powerful collective action can be against corporations.
Beans on toast is probably one of the first meals most of us learn here in the UK. Or a Pot Noodle, once you figure out how the kettle works.
