Today, the Panama Canal is owned and operated by the government of Panama.
> The US first built Panama, and then built the canal.
We can concede that the US played the most significant role in the construction of the canal and applying pressure for Panamanian secession from Colombia, but Panama’s national identify predates the United States.
I love the USA too, but please chill with the rhetoric.
Right. I'm not disputing that the canal is, in fact, owned by Panama today. Nor am I suggesting the US should take it back even though I think it was pretty stupid to give it away.
> If Chrome wants to make itself less attractive, you should celebrate.
I appreciate that Chrome reducing user autonomy in order to further Google's own business goals _should_ be a reduction in their competitiveness in a perfect market.
But the web browser market does not have perfect competition today, and I cannot recall a time when it had.
Regulators preventing Apple from controlling iOS browser engines but allowing Google to have de facto ownership of the web would be an example of governments picking winners and losers.
Public policy needs to move the market towards real competition.
It happens. I felt like the Copilot/Autopilot CMS team had a lot going on so I understood. But it was a good play for a decent native ad experience (example: we ran a decently funny set of Bill Murray cartoons - and that was good) oddly enough and assumed that would ensure its survival.
Does that mean you would prefer violent rebellion over a United States president with social liberal public policies?
Would you have taken up arms under either of the Roosevelts?
Extremism and violence tend to go hand-in-hand.
