It’s not both. If people bought cars based on political opinions of the companies owners then Tesla sales would be increasing over that timeframe here.
Great analogy, but not for the point you’re trying to make.
If your house plumbing is leaking there is water going out where it shouldn’t be. You’re saying it’s a leak just because there’s a tap out near the footpath that could be turned on by someone to use your water, even if not a single drop of water has ever come out of it.
With an unsecured server the data isn’t going where it shouldn’t be unless someone takes it. Without evidence of someone taking it, nothing was leaked.
It is misleading to say it was leaked because there’s no evidence that anyone saw it.
If no ones data was stolen, was there a leak?
It was unsecured, but it was not leaked unless someone accessed it. To try and pretend that there’s no difference is pure idiocy.
Which disasters were caused by climate change?
Nothing to do with Musk, but everything to do with cheaper and actually good Chinese EVs flooding the market.
Dynamic sites still get cached.
Cloudflare definitely is a huge single point of failure, and it is a huge problem imo - but what can we do? Their product is so widely used because of how comprehensive, good, and necessary it is.
Should someone not be persecuted for screaming obscenities at strangers
No, they absolutely should not lol. Why should they?
Or using words to drive someone to suicide.
No, they should not because the words didn’t kill anyone.
Or using words to lie and incriminate
This is one of the few times they should be, and that’s because you’re legitimately causing direct negative consequences to someone else with said words.
If someone says to you they truly plan to kill you
Unless they actually attempt it then no, I don’t think that should be a crime.
Words are not violence. Words can’t hurt you. Anyone thinking they are and they can needs to toughen up.
And we’re back to the concept of that paradox being bullshit to begin with.
Attributing the rise of one nation to “Nazis” is even dumber than the conclusion that musks political opinion causes people to not buy teslas.
