EU Article 45 requires that browsers trust certificate authorities appointed by governments::The EU is poised to pass a sweeping new regulation, eIDAS 2.0. Buried deep in the text is Article 45, which returns us to the dark ages of 2011, when certificate authorities (CAs) could collaborate with governments to spy on encrypted traffic—and get away with it.

The reason they had more days off wasn't so they could watch Netflix it was because to survive they needed to do a lot of long and heavy chores.

If you want to live the life of an illiterate subsistance farmer wearing rough jute clothes and drinking nasty ale made with dirty water and reed sugar then you can just do that.

It was meant as a joke. Capitalism isn't feudalism in new cloths, either, but that gets a pass. I think you just hate ducks.

Besides, serfdom went on for centuries, under hundreds of different lords and rulers, in just as many environments. Your description covers one type, not all types. It's disingenuous to paint it black and white, just because you have a problem with ducks.

You should try serfdom today, it's available in many countries. You'll love it!

I don't think it would be fun to be a serf, and I haven't idealized it. I made a dumb joke, based on a trope, and a couple of you guys just can't accept that, and have to leave a smug reply.

I worked in manual labor for decades, in worse conditions than any serf ever experienced, right up until my body fell apart. 20 years ago, I would have traded my life with nearly any serf, in a heartbeat, and I'd be far better off now.

But, I'm sure you could show little old me what hard living really is. If only I knew!
