That's spoiling at that point
Do you think an average person in 13th century had a better quality of life than an average person living in the 21st century?
Is that a "random person on the Internet" take or something substantiated?
Most statements I don't have qualms with, but from my understanding, "liberals embrace ID politics" seems way off. I could see an argument that there's some kind of split across people who'd identify as or match a typical understanding of a liberal, along the ID politics line, given that it's so divisive. Id say liberal as a concept existed way before ID politics, do when that became prominent, a lot of people got split along that line. I.e. Far right probably split 90:10, Conservatives probably split 75:25, Liberals probably split closer to 50:50, while social left split 25:75, far left split 10:90 and libertarians split 1:99.
Hey, at least your average, retarded, left take seems to be (at least from my limited experience here) somewhat more palatable than your average, retarded, right take.
Data I've seen suggests otherwise. Care to engage with me so that we can figure out where the discrepancy lies?
Yes, but expecting corporations to do it on their own is silly. They operate in a competitive environment so game theory should tell us what's going to usually happen. The laws and regulations exist, and a lot more are needed, but it's also not as simple because costs of enforcement also range from inexpensive to infeasible. In the end, it's people making self-interested decisions, whether on behalf of themselves or on behalf of corporations. I don't know of any easy solutions - my feeling is that those don't exist - so the best bet is to steer society towards better and more effective politics. More distributed and less concentrated power structures, checks and balances, enforcement, novel, effective, and efficient systems through science based analysis, as well as lots of trials and errors and fast iterative improvements based on rapid feedback loops. In short, the world nowadays moves faster than the current government systems and it's a losing battle until governing adaptability can increase in speed.
Conclusion
The Equifax data breach from 2017 stands out as one of the largest data breaches in history, impacting millions of individuals. It is the result of several mistakes made by Equifax:
- Insufficient knowledge of their legacy systems.
- Poor password storage practices.
- Lack of rigor in the patching process.
- Lack of network segmentation.
- Lack of Host-Based Intrusion Detection System (HIDS)
- Lack of alerting when security tools fail.
That's what happens when corps cheap out on IT security. Storing so much personal sensitive data and not putting in the work needed to properly safeguard it. Good IT is hard, but not impossible.
I'll get back to civ when I retire. It can get too life-ruiningly addictive for me.

That's way off topic, though.
