The wire server code is open source AFAIK [0]
> This repository contains the source code for the Wire server. It contains all libraries and services necessary to run Wire.
The story reads like the journalist is completely unaware of their implicit left wing bias and makes little effort to fix it - to them, this example is an obvious example to use but it will alienate readers on the other side (like the OP), yet they used it anyway.
You are absolutely correct, his video did not have any added audio commentary or basically anything and he won his case, his video was just sections copied directly from the source creating a compilation of the original video.
In this case as I understand it, the content being uploaded is extremist content (in their eyes) explicitly being uploaded to highlight its extremism (in their eyes), the difference between the two situations being that Sargon’s video didn’t contain extremist content that YouTube wouldn’t want on their platform.
RWW is posting content they essentially want to be removed. They got what they wanted, the content was removed. In a sense they succeeded in what they set out to do.
I wish their channel be reinstated, but this situation looks to be slightly different from Benjamin’s unless more details come out.
It seems like YouTube messed up and is treating them harshly, but for all we know this type of content is now no longer allowed on the platform due to policy change.
The benefit of this with the mining algorithm that Ethereum uses is that you can mine with off the shelf consumer parts. When proof of stake is fully switched to, those parts will just be sold on the market.
With Bitcoin, switching over to something like proof of stake will be extremely political and will only work out if the market decides that the new proof of stake blockchain fork is the 'real' Bitcoin. It will be political because miner's mining hardware becomes e-waste so they have an incentive to continue mining regardless of the fork. The only way that miners stop mining Bitcoin is if the blockchain becomes worthless in the market so that the miners no longer can afford to pay their operating costs with the mining rewards.
If you live in one of those states and your data is already out there (through a previous breach) then your driver's license number is already public knowledge to hackers.
According to an online calculator this applies to these states:
Florida
Illinois
Maryland
Michigan
Minnesota (Prior to December 13, 2004 only)
Nevada (Prior to January 1998 only)
New Hampshire
New Jersey
New York (Prior to September 1992 only)
Washington
Wisconsin

This will often be more expensive than having a truck bring the water to you when running a dehumidifier especially when you are looking to get out enough for farming.
So in that population of people that distrust the news, there will be crazies that will never take the vaccine and there will be varying levels of reasonable people who decide to wait on taking the vaccine while weighing their own personal risk level with the risk of taking a quickly developed vaccine with no long term studies behind it. The longer we wait, the more of these people will decide taking the vaccine is less risky than getting covid as more studies come out, especially once the FDA promotes it from emergency approval to full authorization (which requires 6 months of data). Some of these people will of course wait longer than full authorization, they may want to wait a year or longer depending on how must they mistrust the news, its unfortunate but its going to take decades for these people to regain trust in the main stream news and the crazies I don't think will ever trust the news again.
Biden's very first EO caused the DOE to reverse course and suspend their previous decision that it violated civil rights laws and now creating racial affinity groups in schools is ok according to the DOE.

The market would then decide which is the real Bitcoin and the mining would only stop once it’s no longer economically viable to mine Bitcoin due to the price dropping.
I think the point of fiat backed stable coins are more for getting around regulations (eg Tether) and a fiat on-ramp for getting into the ecosystem. Certainly if the government seized a large portion of Tethers assets then that could affect other assets, but this actually has already happened with (a small portion, not large) Tether and nothing catastrophic happened.
