Is illegal and I don't think anyone here is arguing against that.
> Liver disease
That's harming you, not someone else. If the state pays for the healthcare requirements that then arise then a more nuanced argument can be made, but surely if it's your own liver and you pay for healthcare then you're harming no one else.
> Domestic violence
Once again, already illegal and I don't think anyone here is arguing against that.
My argument against gun control is similar to my argument on the “War on Drugs”. It wouldn’t be enforced equally. Do you think they are more likely to arrest one of the good ol boys in the south for having a gun illegally or a minority?
Also, the US has a poor history of actually getting rid of things that people want.
Actually I think it's quite a good idea if it stays up. It will show him the consequences of what he's preaching. A taste of his own medicine. (I support laws like the right to be forgotten, and I believe decentralisation to be a bad idea because it defeats those laws.)
that argument depends on the cooperation of the centralized parties in power, whose motivations are not necessarily aligned with (in fact, are usually opposed to) a person's desire to be forgotten.
I just checked the emails I received from Amazon from Christmas purchases, and it is not false. I don't doubt you, but I'm curious what the difference is. I'm looking at order confirmation emails and package ship/delivery emails. They only list order numbers for me, and I need to click through to the Amazon account to see the actual items.
Is there a different category of purchase that you're looking at, or is there something I'm missing?
Edit: I am looking online and I'm not seeing any articles that reference Amazon hiding orders specifically to thwart Gmail tracking, so it's very possible I'm wrong and that's just anecdote. But that being said, they definitely aren't showing individual items in my email confirmations. Is there a preference for this that I forgot I toggled?
In my experience, I’ve noticed that order confirmation includes order details: shipping confirmation not. Took me a while to notice the pattern, and I still find it frustrating.
I'm on Fastmail. I looked back at some of my old Gmail emails and they do list items. The Fastmail emails do not. This strikes me as really weird, if anything I would expect it to be the opposite.
Regardless, it's pretty clear that Amazon doesn't universally hide order information, so my assertion that they're doing it to avoid Gmail tracking seems to be pretty objectively wrong. If they were, they would do a better job.
Note that Gmail is still tracking your purchases, that's pretty widely established, and until recently, they were using your purchase history for ads. But I'm definitely wrong about Amazon's response, and I can't track down whatever source gave me that idea.
