> So the US federal government will combat romance scams by violating random citizens privacy when it cant stop the president from conducting stock market manipulation scams on twitter? Institutional trust needs to be earned and maintained.
Additionally, we expect the government to respect any laws or acts when the current administration seems to be ignoring most of it? Literally why do people even think the government needs to "BUY" data??? They can get it regardless and nobody is really there to stop them until things change.
People talk about this as if Snowden and the NSA stuff way back meant nothing. Why the hell would they need to BUY your data? They're the US Government ffs. They have, and they will, demand that data from companies regardless of financial compensation. These articles don't seem to convey that very well.
Similar yet opposite experience here. I had 3 Steam controllers, 2 of them started having issues after a few months. However, I really enjoyed them for certain games, and even played through most of the Dark Souls franchise with them. Definitely excited for the next generation of them and personally will be preordering one as soon as I can.
