That wasn’t my argument, and is still a viable option. Libraries still exist.

That’s a lie. You used that as an argument twice (that I saw, maybe more).

You: No one is forced to use a laptop. Libraries exist with free internet access and computer.

Also you: Good thing poor people have access to public libraries. I know from experience

My point and argument was: It is the schools decision on what happens with school hardware.

No, I didn’t argue with you about that. That was an argument you were having with multiple other people. I just called you out on the fact that what you were claiming about libraries is not always true for everyone. I cited my source and proved you wrong. Yet you still seem to want to argue so you decided to change the subject of our debate.

Have any thing to say to my point without being combative?

I already said what I wanted to say. Unlike you I don’t feel the need to argue about everything.

You have been antagonistic toward everyone in this post that you’ve interacted with. What makes you think anyone would have any respect for you enough to be polite? If you are combative then people will most likely be combative in their replies.

Or do I add you to the pile of people not worth interacting with in the future?

I find it somewhat sad that you keep saying that to people you get tired of debating. You say it a lot. Please feel free to add me to that list. I’ll survive.

The point is that your argument falls apart considering it kept being propped up by your assertion that kids can just use the library computers if they’re too poor to have a computer at home.

But that doesn’t matter; you’re not actually here to debate in good faith.

You are booming too hard here lol

I’ve never heard that phrase. What does it mean?

There are “book deserts” where it can be difficult to visit a public library.

There are plenty of articles showing how libraries across the country are closing, usually in poor neighborhoods.

Imagine permitting this to be done to your child 🤡

Most parents probably don’t even know it’s happening.

Why? What’s inaccurate about it? I have no idea and would like to learn.

This is a false anecdote and outdated too.

How so?

They did once:

• Whatever Happened to the Facebook Phone?

“Facebook’s phone collaboration with HTC was a flop back in 2013.”

Fuck Musk

Sounds like a French parfum.

Good question. He definitely seems like the type that would have a dungeon with captives.

IIRC that was what happened.

And even though it’s being labeled as a “consumer privacy law” it was actually spurred by a politician getting upset that people might find out what he was renting. It was a self-serving law that had the side effect of also helping consumers.

Here’s the most recent example:

• Firefox’s new data collection feature sparks user backlash: here’s how to disable it

The browser that promises “no shady privacy notices or advertiser backdoors” on its storefront has suddenly added an experimental feature to beam user interactions to advertisers and enables it by default. Many are not happy.

I never thought about it that way. Interesting. Thanks!

I’ll have to admit, I looked at the cliffside pictures during the hype. I fell for the Streisand Effect in its original form.
