If you’re in the US you haven’t lost yet. Still federally illegal, so you’re still breaking federal law in legal States.

I don’t see the relevancy of what you’ve chosen to quote from this article. Unless you’re comparing Sanders campaign donors to Saudi Arabia?

I don’t mind them existing either. My issue is with how they show up in the subscription feed now. I’d prefer separate feeds for shorts.

Broadcast not cable, and owned by Disney.

They did the opposite and shoved a pointless shorts section in the middle of your subscription page so you can’t see what you actually want to look at.

I read the article, it’s also shit and fails to properly talk about the issue instead of ranting about data loss.

Did you read the article? Because as far as I can see it fails to actually say shit about the problem. From just this article I can see why people are blaming the author for not having redundancy.

The Arstechnica articles however do actually say what’s going on, so yeah this appears to be a real issue with these drives disconnecting.

Copy/pasted text stays with time too and doesn’t have the issues that pictures of text do. Also hosted images disappear all the time.

To be clear, some of the comments you removed were from the person you are now replying to.
