@lemmy.worldSo you'd rather live in a world where people die more often, just so you can punish the people who do the killing?
I didn't say 64. I said 16 which is perfectly reasonable. Your comment reads like damage control from an apple employee.
The issue is not with the applications psychological effects on children (although i'm sure politicians bring that point up in passing to bolster their argument). The basis for the removal of the application is that it is spyware with rootkit capabilities.
Just because you can get away with 8 does not mean you should. Go google around and find just how cheap an additional 8 gb of laptop RAM is these days.
Palestinians are opposing the wrong people. If Hamas operatives were unable to operate publicly this war would be a lot easier for Israel to conduct in a manner that minimizes civilian casualties.
Lol no. If jesus was alive today he'd be telling you that poor people nowadays live exceptional lives and should be complacent in having their lives exploited. Jesus did not free slaves- he only cured them so they could keep providing capital to their masters.
Sure you might get tighter control over advertising, but youtube would also be forced to do things like show you x% of content made in your country/language, resulting in state mandated control of the content you see online and potentially limiting/warping international audiences for content creators, and potentially other ramifications I'm not considering.
This is false. You can create laws restricting advertising without creating other laws forcing companies to display domestic content. The point about the Canadian government wanting YouTube to promote domestic content is irrelevant.
