depends how the loans worked.
I was assuming his majority shares of X (ex Twitter) collateral.
And that that he could just go "yeah, go on, collect on your collateral, I don't mind", because it's not worth anything anymore.

Several players have said they’ll exit the UK rather than exit encryption.
rightly so.
I'd assume any worldwide player couldn't be caught in compliance with this, as long as alternatives exist that don't.
This might have been enough to push EU people away from WhatsApp for example.

I would not at all be surprised if Ubisoft would be allowed to completely delete accounts in several "first world" countries.
And of course, even if you're technically legally protected, getting that right in a court against ubisoft
This is why we need Firefox.
And Firefox needs to be a market that can't be ignored.
exciting!
not useful yet, but give it a few years, and it may just be grand.
my understanding was that you could only use the xInput configuration with the dongle, and the wii-configuration with bluetooth
well, if more people used Firefox websites couldn't just throw them under the bus, which is why I said it's so important.
We'll have to see, but I'd hope Firefox puts up at least some resistance.
