A lot can be legal if you agree to it. But they absolutely can’t unilaterally declare this rule into effect.
Just don’t pay, what are they gonna do? Sue you for damages that they admit themselves can’t prove?

“being mean to scabs is, itself, doing work.”
Volunteer work is also work, and I’ll gladly do this for free.
Dont forget that other favorite “No you can’t have more hardware, these were fine in 2006 and they’re fine now! Just delete some old stuff like you IT people always do”

Error-correction for dropped packets is also pretty shit.
Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes flashdrives hurtling down the highway.
It’ll trickle down aaaaaany day now.
Well, China, if you want a few chip-makers, i know a few slightly-used ones that used to belong to an old lady and have only ever been used for shopping trips.
Is that known rapist and sex trafficker Andy Tate?
I doubt it ever happened before, so whatever the policy will be, it’s going to be brand new
Sicfi publisher Bean Books did this. They published free ebooks for all the older material, but kept the last/newest in a series paid.
So yeah, I bought those new books, since id gotten hooked.
These people will never go away. The people have 16 push messages an hour, are the same people who had 7 IE toolbars, are the same people who had their VCR blinking 12:00, are the same people who couldn’t get the channel on their radio, are the same people who (presumably) kept buying snakeoil potions.
These are the people who would rather be annoyed at something than fix it, they’re the people who will spend hours living with problems rather than spend 1 hour learning how to resolve it.
You can absolutely have free speech, but nobody is forced to actually listen to you.
Which is good, because in the real world, every place that has “zero censorship” rapidly devolves into a Nazi invested shithole.
The library I worked for as a teen used to process off-site reservations by writing them to a text file, which was automatically e-faxed to all locations every odd day.
If you worked at not-the-main-location, you couldn’t do an off-site reservation, so on even days, you would print your list and fax it to the main site, who would re-enter it into the system.
This was 2005. And yes, it broke every month with an odd number of days.
It’s just as depressing when something counts as “clean”. My saddest example was a former sand pit, they spent 30 years digging out 15 meters of sand, then another 30 years filling it with anything from industrial to veterinary waste, “capped” it with rubble in the late 40s and called it clean enough.
Had a bigass job digging out the top 3 meters of random waste, including several thousand of barrels of whatever the fuck. And definitely no unexploded ordnance (spoiler, after finding several ww2 rifle stocks and helmets, the first mortarshells were dug up too). After makimg room, it was covered in sand, clay, bentonite and a protective grid.
So naturally, 3 months after that finished, some cockhead decided to throw an anchor and hit go all ahead flank on his assholes boat and tore the whole thing up. No need to fix anything though, just shovel some more sand it, that’ll stop the anthrax!
This was all in open connection with a major river, of course. One people swim in.
Just defederate the Meta instances, and your problem is solved, right?
It’s not like saying “I wish this awesome little bar is a McDonald’s” but “I don’t want to go to a bar in a city that also has a McDonalds”.
Also, the price point determines the sort of people looking at your add
