I was gonna say, isnt high employee stock compensatition common for pump and dump companies?

The pump would be useless if youre theyre the only one holding onto stock, and actual money keeps its value after the pop so you can't give that to employees.

    Dumb politicians letting stupid companies lock bootloaders :(

    Can't say I've tried abusing vulnerabilities yet, but I'm worried I'll lose hardware support flashing stuff that low level (dtb's are scary)

    I can see how someone would have that perspective, and I agree with the sentiment. A portion of the predator population can use good intentions to their advantage.

    I just think its also valid to get the vibes of the "despite making up 13% of the population...." racist copypasta, because statistical manipulation isnt good nor evil - its simply inaccurate.

    I'm a bit bias here, but the inaccuracy of claiming any significant portion of the male gender are likely to become rapists has a negative impact on my community, the transfem community. The same argument that is used to excuse some rich white shithead gang assaulting women during homecoming, will be used to put 6"4 black trans women in male prisons.

    Its a weird place to be in, and makes it almost impossible to objectively define what's more important, catching a higher ratio of predators, or protecting a higher ratio of victims?

    Personally generally I think its more important to protect victims than attack predators, but I'll admit the paradox of inclusion does show how this idea can be a fallacy.
