The ones who made the software probably are.

The rest just need to notice they're no longer making money and being 1337, will get updated h4xx0r t00lz once the first group releases them.

Most of them die as hatchlings, but if they reach adulthood, they tend to live 35-50 years in the wild.

The oldest living alligator in captivity has been in a zoo for 84 years, but was an adult when they got him so he's at least 3 or 4 years older than that.

Your age ranges should go 0-7, 7-23, 23-39... instead of 0-7, 8-23, 24-39...

While 2012 was 8 years ago, not everyone born in 2012 has turned 8 yet.

Just wait a year. I have a feeling there's a few hundred thousand more, but I don't know how many of them are breeding in pairs.

Nope. It's literally the C in ICE.

The FDA and FTC have their own jobs to do related to the matter, but this part is what the ICE has been doing for ages.

It's plausible to do it just to do it, but you're better off just renting a car.

I couldn't care less about him, I'm more concerned about what his fan club will do.

The word you're looking for is 'Cultivation.'

You've basically described farming and ranching. Plenty of analogies there, though many of them have already been used.

It's not a paradox.

The decision of the court should be that the payment isn't due yet, not that the contract is invalid. Unless ancient Greek law requires the contract to be thrown out because it was tried in court or the case was clearly frivolous (IANAAGL) the decision should uphold the validity of the contract, not invalidate it.
