@ejsjs345918@byte0027@701delta okay I'll accept your framing. So what if I have valuable data on my windows machine. Should a company be able to completely destroy it if I breach a contract?
What about this DMA device, apparently the firmware is destroyed. Should a company be allowed to destroy my stuff?
@ejsjs345918@byte0027@701delta It's irrelevant under the law if they have a dma device or are cheating. Riot doesn't get to destroy people's personal property as a remedy just because of a contract violation.
This is called self-help and it exposes them to a lot of liability
@teortaxesTex When I was an undergrad, even I got access to GADI (our national cluster) on my laptop via vpn. Thousands of students and staff had access at my institution.
The work done is meant to be free and open and the results published. Breach is embarrassing but not the end of the world
@loekalization @Kathleen_Tyson_@jasjiv@Megatron_ron Kathleen is accurate and you're deliberate misrepresenting the case. The first order removing the CEO and confiscating the shares was given ex-parte which, I'm sure you are well aware as someone who has followed the case closely.
Bit of a liar aren't you
@SebAaltonen It didn't use to be that way but some resellers would flash their own roms with adware installed. So they locked USB debugging and unlocking the bootloader needs permission from Xiaomi.
@tom_forsyth If Zelensky isn't empowered to conduct negotiations and uphold agreements then the Russians won't agree anything with him and the killing will never stop. Credibility is critical.
#SCOOP: EU leaders are now in possession of “very reliable evidence” of China considering military assistance to Russia, according to a senior EU official, days after a similar assessment from US officials. https://t.co/KnXX2zVmhS
@AlexLuck9 sorry brain fart about the j-10 but without knowing how the firing control system works we just don't know about backwards compatibility with russian systems.
I consider the entire point moot anyway since the chinese won't provide lethal aid.
