notspanishflu··on Mark Zuckerberg's Facebook hearing was a sham
Facebook tracks everyone, every time. Tracks users and non users. Tracks even people trying to avoid that company.

For example, the infamous pixel code.

  <!-- Facebook Pixel Code -->
			<script>
			!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s){if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?
			n.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};if(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;
			n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';n.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;
			t.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];s.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window,
			document,'script','https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/fbevents.js');
			fbq('init', '477623695968553' );			fbq('track', 'PageView');

PS HN should snip the tracking part in OPs automatically.

notspanishflu··on Nokia sold 4.4M smartphones in Q4 2017
Ubuntu Touch is alive thanks to the community [0].

Nokia doesn't need to "build and support an alternative OS just for enthusiasts", they just need to give some support to the Halium project [1].

notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
Are you really serious with those 'sources'?
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
But doesn't mean that.

In law there isn't something like 'oh it seems this legal precept means...'

All legal precepts have carefully chosen words and a spirit in which they're based.

notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
It means all the Spanish people have a say when talking about sovereignty, not only a part.

That's why is illegal a election for secession with only a part of the Spanish census.

notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
Are you kidding? Do you know how a democracy works?
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
When you state something like that, you must show us some sources.
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
I replied to jayniz, maybe you didn't see it.

It's in the article 1.2 of the Spanish Constitution:

> La soberanía nacional reside en el pueblo español, del que emanan los poderes del Estado.

(The national sovereignty resides in the Spanish people, from which emanate the powers of the State.)

notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
Can you point out any source about fake news from anti-secessionists?
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
Wow a democracy defending the rule of law! /s
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
I don't bet but if you're interested in betting, I saw a thread in Reddit where people are betting 'reddit gold'.
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
So every generation has to vote a new constitution?
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
Source for that?
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
The article 1.2 of the Spanish Constitution states:

> La soberanía nacional reside en el pueblo español, del que emanan los poderes del Estado.

(The national sovereignty resides in the Spanish people, from which emanate the powers of the State.)

notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
I mean voting for independence, not having an opinion, obviously.
notspanishflu··on Spain Will Remove Catalonia Leader, Escalating Secession Crisis
Then stop pulling numbers from your ass. Thank you.

Again, we're talking about the rule of law in democratic societies, not totalitarian ones.

I don't know the source of your fascination if you don't understand that.
