That’s how every progressive movement starts, until activists make them reality. If it’s a good idea, it’s a good idea - and if that’s not the way that things are done, the question stops being “is this a good idea”, and starts being “how can we implement this good idea”.

Which, presumably, you’d also restrict people from walking on :P

Personally, I don’t really feel that scientology is particularly worse than other religions. So you could just say that Trump supporters are more religious than political, really. Though, I don’t think that’s unique to Trump supporters, really - modern politics really is a lot more like a sort of religious thing rather than about the actual policy for a lot of people.

Yeah, absolutely they should be forced to opening the platform more, worldwide.

For the same reason that people dangerously exceed speed limits.

I think you might have picked a bad community to share your sympathies for smooth car traffic, I’m afraid.

For what it’s worth, I think it’s reasonable enough to forbid pedestrians from crossing high-speed (60+ mph) roads, but otherwise they should have full right of way over any road, and fuck the cars. They can just be patient and deal with it.

They should apply to all platforms which have over a certain number of users, for sure. It’s not really a good idea imo to make it universally applicable because then you would end up with a situation where a hobbyist developer is legally required to deal with complying with all that legislation for their homebrew project with half a dozen users.

I believe that Apple has been given the same or similar, set of requirements from the EU, tried to soft-ball it by doing some bare minimum shit that the EU didn’t consider good enough, and is back in court over it.
