your mum is a troll

Not what we're talking about in the OP comment.

Will you go to jail or pay a fine if you don't use a credit card? No?

Then it's nothing like taxation and it is optional.

That's not true at all. It's certainly not common to require credit cards for car rentals in Europe. Must be an American thing.

Everyone in Europe uses debit cards. You don't have debit cards in the US?

It's a plastic card, it is issued by your bank, it's still using the visa/mastercard network, but instead of credit, it is tied to actual funds in your bank account.

It's not though. No one is forcing you or anyone else to sign up for credit cards - it's a choice, unlike taxation.

Anecdotally, yes. I almost never saw internal error pages before, now I've been seeing them every week for a few weeks. Some people need to be fired.

Your first mistake would be using those platforms. You're just going to get spammed by Indian devs that didn't even read your post.

Another thing that calls out macOS 11? The WWDC event a few hours prior to your post announcing macOS 11.

In construction, the contractor does not have to leave his drill to you so your house continues functioning.

Many software licenses are billed per project/per site. You can't expect the contractor to cover these for you for free.
