It should be illegal to revoke or modify people's purchases. All games should be able to be kept and played using the version you bought it at except maybe MMOs due to technical reasons. Forced updates and DRM need to be outlawed.

That makes sense to me. You might piss people off less by doing that if you put their username in the title or something.

Why'd'ja take no_nothing's post? They seem pretty upset about it.

The frequency with which cm0002 posts would make me say bot if they didn't leave lots of conversive comments too.

Could a state order all businesses operating in that state to stop paying taxes?

[–] Probius@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

That would mean that the corporations basically paid people's taxes for them, right? Wouldn't that just get factored into salaries?

[–] Probius@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

I guess it would, at most, only work with people who get paid from the same state.

This is the answer I was looking for. Thanks! A simple "no" wasn't very informative.

I don't mean legally. I mean "just doing it" regardless of the law.

 

Just hypothetically, if a state decided to stop receiving money from the federal government as well as intercepting and/or stopping federal income tax payments, could they do it? What might the consequences be?

Please be respectful so that rule 5 doesn't get broken.

Too many people think that everyone in the US deserves to suffer just because 23% of us voted for the Orange Shitstain, and that's if you believe nobody "found" him some extra votes.

That's the sad truth.

I think we need laws against platforms censoring discussion of their rivals, particularly with shadow bans and shadow delistings.

 

Sidebar doesn't say why, but it does say I have to post, so I guess I'm posting to ask why!
