If it isn't proof they target children, I don't know what is.
Microtransctions prove they should be illegal every time I read any article about them

Poor duck....
I propose taking that 1k, measuring against the average income of anyone who makes under 1M, and use that percentage of cost of living to fine the company appropriately.
Example: 1k fine for someone who makes 10k/yr, that 1k is 10% of their yearly income, whereas a company that makes 10,000,000,000/yr, that's only 0.0001%
When it's time for money: COMPANIES ARE PEOPLE TOO!
When it's time for punishment: but you can't hold a company responsible, it's not just one person.
This is exactly the dumb shit take from y2k.
I Still hear people go on about how "it was supposed to be this big thing and then nothing happened! Smart people are so dumb!"
Yeah nothing happened because a lot of smart people worked very hard to fix the goddamn problem, you fucking shitwaffle.
Here? "You dum dums got so worked up thinking it would pass and then it didn't, so the freak out was for nothing!" yeah it didn't pass because a lot of Europeans got very upset about their governments trying to spy on them harder than ever.
I'm not European, so I can't say how people talked about it openly on the metro with random strangers, but online? People were vocal and pissed. A PROPER government (lol can we have some of that functioning democracy please) listens to its people. This was them listening to the people.
The people's reaction was appropriate, and necessary. And shouldn't be lessened just because "lol you guys got so propaganda'd and it was obviously never gonna happen and I knew cause I'm so smart" is quite the take on things.

You get one chance to put it on before I pull the car over and put it in park. In this case I turned the car off, pulled out my headphones, and started watching Lord of the Rings on my phone.
The best driver in the world can still get T-boned at an intersection or rear ended at a stop sign. I'm the one driving, you will abide by my safety rules. Take your own vehicle or ride the bus if you don't want a seat belt.
I love seeing the "FRENCH GOVERNMENT COLLAPSES" headlines.
Like.... A governmental collapse and this gestures broadly at France are two VERY different things.
And if I'm being honest, when I first saw the headline I wondered if they floated raising the retirement age again and got rioted into a burned down parliament.
France will be okay, they have protocols for this sort of thing.
...... Right? I don't know nearly as much about the current French government as I do pre-napoleonic France. Am dum American.

You're only confused because I'm dumb! For some reason I was thinking toner and laser were separate types.
I bought a toner printer in 2020 and I'm still on the first replacement cart. I have over 2000 pages printed.
Considering I spent $80, plus $40 on the new two pack of toner, I consider it money well spent.
~~I do wish I had bought a laser printer though... There are things I would like to begin printing that will be several thousand pages after it's all finished. Mostly reference materials.~~ DISREGRD THIS I DUM
Executives should be forced work their lowest paid company position, and be dumped in an apartment with absolutely nothing.
See how long they survive.
You can talk to me about my work-life balance when I'm not putting the healthy option back because it's more expensive than the cheap unhealthy ultra processed bullshit and I can't justify the expense.
