Lol I mean, nobody is perfect, but you guys have things like freedom of movement (even between countries) and France and Germany pushing open source software forward for the sake of privacy, security, flexability and community. Plus, you guys seem to have a mindset of "until it's proven safe, it will be illigal" compared to our "until it is proven UNsafe, it will be legal". Maybe "gold standard" isn't the best term, but I feel like you guys have better way of thinking about the world
Yeah, I find it funny (in a nervous chuckle kind of way) that a bunch of people distrust experts (especially doctors) until they offer their services for free and it's suddenly "good" advice even when it's not.
The "gate keeping" part is horrible
I mean, I agree that we should have them, and your personal reasons for doing so are great ones, especially the invitation part. Also, somehow this is my first time seeing IANAL lol
EDIT: Thanks for the history part, I may have to look a little more into the birth of the internet
Even as an American, this is terrifying. Everyone knows my country is shit, but I've always seen you guys as the gold standard and for this kind of thing to even be discussed over on your side of the pond is absolutely horrifying....
Now that you mention it, yeah 🤣 Thanks for the chuckles kind stranger, take my up vote
