Ok, so Zelensky has banned opposition parties, arrested political opponents. And furthermore he cancelled elections that were supposed to happen next month. Will you be condemning Ukrainian conscription then, since the government will neither be democratic or legally elected?
So the 15000 civilian deaths caused by Ukraine bombing its own provinces before Russia intervened, the constant efforts by Russia to resolve the issue diplomatically, the naked refusal of the West to even engage with Russia, the West openly backing a fascist coup in Ukraine, and then arming it with the explicit dictate of provoking Russia, the West pressuring Ukraine to not accept the generous settlement offered by Russia in May after the war started, all that doesn’t count?
It’s not like Russia has never done any of those things individually.

Maybe not at the personal user-end, but most corporations and other organizations are completely reliant on MS365 and/or Windows.

The reason is MS products offer a lot of tools to surveil employees
I’m guessing your company’s server (or whatever other form of central hub you are using) has Edge as the default browser. Alternatively, it could be some admin default setting your IT forgot to switch off for your accounts.
He’s exchanging money for, adoration, power and control of a narrative. I think he wants to run for president someday
It’s not just the news-worthiness. It’s the way how 6+ different countries mobilized to rescue them. That was a result of precisely being rich fucks.
The problem is that going so deep means radio signals don’t work anymore. The water is too dense to transmit a signal for any meaningful distance. Since they were planning to only dive at that location specifically though, they could have placed buoys to act as signal boosters, or some equivalent technology.
At any rate, it seems 5 rich people died because they cut corners on the sub. Ironic.
That’s a lot of assumptions to make an argument.
