There are blasphemy laws for instance. Right to be forgotten. Etc.

Are you sure?

For instance, they are two countries, whose names end with the letter "A"... dare I continue?

Would I be reading this if it was only American companies?

Isn't Veracrypt just a container, like a hard disk? Why should Veracrypt care about what filesystem you store inside of a container, and whatever you do with its permissions?

>I don't approve of extorting all of Twitch for one companies corporate copyrights including blocking Twitch across an entire country. This is a scorched earth corporate authoritarian/oligopoly approach.

The alternative is that I can host whatever illegal content I want in a big site, knowing they won't have the balls to block it.

Then many countries in the EU are authoritarian too, since they block domain names of websites that link (yes, link, not host, just link) to streams of football matches.

What a shitfest this would be. How much money do you think some governments would be willing to spend to take over the entire DNS system? Don't you see what they did to Bitcoin?

Are you surprised that a megacorporation is acting like a megacorporation? What's the alternative, forcing Google to sell their products? How would you even achieve that?

If my phone breaks, I lose my data, and that is my responsibility. You are saying that everything should be backed up on the cloud, I think that's crazy.

localstorage disappearing overnight IS a bug. If I put stuff in My Documents folder on Windows and Windows decides to delete it, that IS a bug too. You could argue that I should have backups, and you would be right, but that's no reason for Windows to delete my files, and that is no reason for me to never use my hard disk.

>i see a lot of mentions of cordova apps. are people publishing apps without a backend (and save everything in localstorage)?

Yes. Why not? You can write a Cordova app that doesn't even have a backend.
