> I don't think it's asking a lot to expect any platform to only provide the minimum legally required cooperation.

It is asking a lot. They can do minimum legally required things for environment, users, communities, charities and so on. This would be considered very hostile behavior. And companies don't do that.

So why would they be doing minimum required cooperation with government just because some people do not like government or its actions.


If watching this much videos from such large array of services is that important for a family I am sure they can easily cut down on other leisure and entertainment and come up just fine.

They dont need to wach "much videos". The argument is about "specific movies and series".

And for that, there are three options: piracy, pay many services, constantly juggle sign ins and sign outs.


A lot of spanish people live with less than 1000€ a month. You can barely rent a 2 bedroom flat in many cities with that.

100€ for leisure and entertainment is already a huge sum of money when filing the tank of their cars to earn their salary cost them 2 to 3x 80€ already.


> Just want to make money and support my family.

That'd be just fine. But you do seem to care and feel hurt enough to call people online clowns.


I think you have put this in a correct, concise manner which I agree with entirely.

The smaller version of same phenomena I see in enterprises where musings of non/barely technical leadership of a tech org is not only considered as go-to strategy but also why previous plans and implementations which were so obviously crappy not totally replaced yet.


All these AI tools teams have most valid excuse "We are just a bunch of people who only know Javascript/typescript/NodeJS. Please bear with us while we resolve 10,000 open issues."


It could mean you know very few developers.

> Typically I see folks using the Amazon Corretto java distribution.

It means nothing. ~90% of core development of JDK and JVM is done by Oracle employees and it is shared by all distributions by various vendors.


In my experience (mainly IT related), when one first starting a career, first 5-10 years are standardized are promotion/title change for an average employee. After that if one is known by at least 1-2 level above their managers and/or other team managers, to have any chance of further growth. IME as time go by current managers have less and less power to promote as gap between manager and employee reduces.


Huh, Enterprise usage of Blackberry was very very high and then it was not. And at one point SOA, SOAP/WSDL/XML usage was very very high and now I am told in my very enterprise job I'd be fired if I dared bring those names up.

Usage being high doesn't say anything about quality or suitability of a product specially in enterprise settings.


Honestly, it does. Enterprise software does need high reliability.


This has already happened or happening quite fast with cloud. Where setting up own data center, or even few servers could be crime against humanity if it does not use whole Kubernetes/Devops/Observability stack.


Agree.

From my personal experience I'd add a lot Director/Sr Director in relatively technical companies who manage scores of web application developers. So when you say most, it could literally be almost everyone.
