I was just using it. But the behavior/reaction to button presses showed me that a button was obviously connected to the wrong function.

I don’t know how to see a memory bug in an out of order elevator, but I once saw and reported a wiring error of a working elevator. It was an interesting talk at the reception desk, but as I could precisely describe what was wrong and the verifyable consequences, they took me seriously. And sent me a “Thank You” email later ;-)
Let’s come back to all of this when all those “quantum breakthroughs” manage to compute anything worthwhile that is not a quantum computer benchmark, but solves a real world problem.
Well, lets call it an armed robbery, then.
What choice do they have if kids are basically unaffordable?
Yes, and what Texas did fits this description perfectly. It is transfer of people through deception for political and financial profit. So where is your actual problem?
Does the family really expect that she “just so” spends £1800 on feeding them all out of her own pocket? If the (probably extended) family does not like it, maybe they should host the family dinner instead of having one person do it every year.
Human trafficking laws, anyone?
I’d pick Apollo, the most sciency guy of the bunch.
Of course he is taking pages out of the Nazi playbook. It simply shows what he is. If he suddenly started to quote Ghandi, I’d get suspicious…
The phone market has been a lot like the PC market 20, 30 years ago.
Back then, you actually had an advantage by getting a new machine quite often, as the newer machine was so much better and faster than the model from the year before. It actually made a difference for 99% of the users: The text processing, calculating, or browsing programs ran way better and faster on the current model than on the one or two year older one.
Nowadays, any off-the-shelf PC fulfills the needs of 95% of the users. It runs Windows/Word/Excel (or whatever else they use) fast enough to not be an issue. The only people who still need the bleeding edge stuff are some high-end uses e.g. in engineering, and gamers.
Same with cell phones. Ten years ago, the annual new model actually provided a big leap of abilities and comfort. Nowadays, I’m replacing my 5+ year old model just because the battery is getting close to the end of it’s usability.
Counter-Argument: Each camera in a bedroom can be free entertainment for millions!
Good luck holding a company sitting in China “responsible” for about anything.
I had a friend at university who got a job fixing cobol stuff before Y2K. The bank paid him extremely well, housed him in a luxury apartment during the job, and, as he had no driving licence, dropped in a car with free driver for him.
Sorry, I forgot that the US is decades behind the rest of the world in privacy laws.
Well, maybe you could start with this aspect.
You already need consent to take a persons picture. Did it help in this case? I don’t think so.
Isn’t it already? Has it provided any sort of protection? Many things in this world are illegal, and nobody cares.
The problem is how to actually prevent this. What could one do? Make AI systems illegal? Make graphics tools illegal? Make the Internet illegal? Make computers illegal?
Well, at least there are people who still use Perl.
