ya. At 26-70 accounts you don't even need a VPS, there are free VPNs, free temporary emails, and temporary phone numbers you can buy. this could be any angry chinese person or a teenager.

Being anti-china gets people riled up. I'm guessing it's the same in China when they want to divert the attention.

50 western accounts on <chinese-social-media-site> said 'China Bad' at the same time.

Russia asked to block Putin's rivals apps. Google and Apple complied. The only people who could side-load it were Android users. I guess that's good for Democracy, right? because Apple said so…

It totally wouldn't happen to us…

>Should cloudflare spin up an editorial board to decide what platforms to drop based on complaints?

They already do that and they're called lawyers. And forbidden activities are collectively listed under "Term of Service."

8.In hindsight, it's easy to give advice to others on their flaws than making it a reality on your own. Making a list really sells it to people.

9.Stop making products, start writing personal development/marketing books that contain things that seem obvious in your head but you've never really tried it yourself.

10. Make your fluff seem as authentic as you can

you seem pretty convinced.

other distributions don't have those problems because they have no where near the user base.

serious information is for people who crosscheck their information, academically through books or through additional research. No place on the Internet is for serious information on it's own.

no one is stopping you to pay for this superior alternative to 'clunkier' offerings. but to say he came up with the 'solution' is disingenuous.

I'm seeing people saying 'this is amazing. I will pay for this' without even having tried it or any alternatives. I don't know about you but doesn't seem natural.

if you don't know any competing services offering similar services for years. then any price seems cheap.

but invite list, wooo, I got to get on it

Honestly, he's saying may be not let the hype get to you and buy the device's first iteration outright with known incompatibilities. is that so bad?

Everything Apple does is automatically a huge plus for some people. may be, just may be, it's not for everyone

it is realistically selfish. Also Signal app/server is open-source. Anyone could churn up a server and fly under the radar.
