Hope this isn't a repeated submission. Funny how they're trying to deflect blame after they tried to change the EULA post breach.

Do you not see a responsibility to future generations in any of your actions or are you just here to “get yours” and check out?

Not on this matter. Simply asserting that danger exists is not the same as demonstrating it, and you're doing a lot of asserting and zero demonstrating.

While there are real and immediate dangers today

Such as? You're pretty light on details in a situation where it would really help your argument to provide examples. It makes me assume that you don't actually know.

our responsibility in this moment is to be a firm NO so that these things don’t find their extremes in our lifetime or beyond

Why does that require a "firm NO"? Plenty of actually dangerous things have been handled via regulation rather than a "firm NO".

You’re the frog in the pot of cold water, but the burner is turned on beneath you.

Bad news for your point: the frogs actually jump out in real life. You've also completely failed to demonstrate that we are frogs and there is a pot of water in this situation.

You're very confidently ignorant. I'm glad this is only an internet conversation and it can just full stop here - I do feel bad for the people that have to suffer you daily in real life though.

Funny you calling me ignorant in response to a post where I asked you twice to explain more. That you resorted to insults instead of explaining your thinking says a lot more about you than it does me.
