*I talked to the people in the online lobby and explained that I had to leave for personal reasons and was sorry to leave my teammates alone, then everybody, even the opposing team wished me a good day, just to be here.

This is under the assumption that every single being being born anywhere is being gene tested and born at a hospital which is statistically impossible.

I love the ingenuity of using a simple metal hook and leather strap instead of fairly complex leather gloves for soldiers to ease the process of reloading.

Streaming sites are usually just the front-end of a content host. The are a number of different domains that all use the same hosts. Banning the streaming sites does absolutely nothing to prevent piracy. Streaming sites rarely host their own content. An example would be the recently banned NSFW streaming domain "Goodporn(dot)to" and it's subsidiaries, which actually did host their own content. Given that they were arguably the most complete library of illegaly hosted copyrighted western pornography, it kind if made sense to prosecute them specifically.

As long as the actually content provider isn't prosecuted the streaming sites won't disappear. Finding a streaming site is essentially as simple as entering 123movies/series/anime/etc. into a search engine and clicking on the first link. The actual content providers like DoodStream, UpCloud, StreamSB, etc. usually operate out of countries where the copyright holder has no jurisdictions.

Edit: pretty sure I can't directly link NSFW sites, even if the domain doesn't exist anymore...

Yes a business usually consists of people and is driven by profit, you sted the obvious, but what is your point?

Do people buy their vacuums from Dyson Ltd. or from a guy named Kevin?

It's not just about profits, it's about accountability. That's what the different forms of corporations represent. A singular private person can't and shouldn't be held accountable for every product the produce. A business is a layer of protection of limited (Ltd.) accountability. How could anybody be motivated to invent or produce anything if a single miss use of your product that causes any harm (intended or not) could lead to you directly being held responsible and possible going to jail. A business on the other hand usually has limited accountability but is also held to a much higher standard of quality and proof than a private individual ever could.

If everything's a crisis, then nothing is.

That's what I'm trying to say. Losing Twitter isn't a big deal.

Businesses are the ones that produce food, medicine, clothes, build houses, print books, provide gas and electricity, build roads, etc. There are businesses that have outlasted monarchies and democracies. I'm not a corpo schmuck but small businesses are the soul of the soul of our society.
