By trying to make things simple, this ends up making it more complicated and convoluted than anything

It is very much actively maintained other than this supposed vacation from the developer. Everything else is purely speculation and what seems to be impersonation of the dev on the fediverse.
Welcome to the rest of the world mate. This issue here is another "no way to prevent this, says only nation where this happens" as The Onion would say.
That's pretty much how the rest of the world works, either delivery to pickup points or delivery to person only
Mozilla is definitely trying to diversify their income to not depend on Google, but let us not forget that despite Firefox's user share declining, their AI and ad friendly CEO keeps getting raises
in In my opinion, it's likely that nothing will change. If this ever happens, Google might setup an "Android Alliance" with other OEMs which will reach agreements to keep Android as is but for the USA lawmakers and such it'll seem like everything has changed.
For Firefox, I believe Google will keep injecting money in Mozilla as long as it keeps them from having Chrome being targeted on an antitrust/competitive lawsuit or ruling.
Nothing, really. Usually in the USA Apple escapes this type of rulings because they don't have a monopoly on anything and/or because it's argued they build the hardware for which their software run on so there isn't anti competition (which in my opinion is pure bullshit, but what can I do?)
All Steam games have SteamDRM and you cannot run them without Steam or without the license, otherwise you could just buy a game, backup the installed files, refund the game and still have complete access to it.
On the other hand, it's quite easy to bypass that DRM with a crack.
"It should be forbidden to pay once and own a thing forever"
Nice try, subscription salesman.
Pretty much the vast majority of the professionals and amateurs in the creative area and hobbyists all around too
Source for what, the lawyers claiming the payment detail wasn't specified?
I can't provide you any source on how the fine notices of this nature look like since I have never commited anything to amount a hefty fine like this, but every single official document, bill, notice or whatever you may call it in which requires someone to pay something to the government, you will find extensive details on the account numbers and where to pay. They are not forgetting or not including this information.
Like I have said before and will say it again, the Brazilian law firm Xitter has hired is either comprised of the freshest graduated lawyers that never worked with something like this, or they can't read, or they're intentionally playing malicious to avoid paying the fine and causing as much instability as they can on behalf of Musk.
This reeks of Americanism, yanks are absurdly obsessed with race and nationality
