Just don't run an exit node? We need more guard and relay nodes anyway. I fail to see the issue.

Based on this interaction alone and his dad deciding the price for him, I'm going to make the wildly assumptious assumption this is a 20s/30s(/40s?) unemploymed guy living at his dad's house rent free.

If my assumptions are incorrect, sorry mate, you did not win the dad lottery.

Yeah but he's just a temporarily inconvenienced billionaire, the rest of these welfare queens are out here collecting rent and sitting around all day. They don't need the money like he does. As soon as he gets a job, he'll hustle that first billion in no time.

Looking further into the website, especially the category descriptions, it's largely AI written and looks like a propaganda website like masses created and spread during the last 2 American election seasons.

This only works if you don't want the privacy enhancing aspect of advertisers not tying your activity to an IP address.

Beyond more safely using open Wi-Fi or bypassing a censoring ISP, there isn't much reason there.

Yes you can but for people that are looking to set one up today, not someone that's been running one for 5 years and has basically a whitelisted reputation, it takes a lot to set it up and keep your domain and IP space reputation solid, along with DKIM/SPF/etc records, all the latest stuff like Google's new mandatory unsubscribe header that will keep coming up. Even if a couple people on your hosting provider start spamming, if they're in the same IP space as you, You're going to be getting filtered more heavily for using a "bad neighbor" host. The big corporate/"nonprofit" guys like Spamhaus and Google and Microsoft are basically those controlling corporations for emails, what they say in their spec pretty much goes. They're making it h em oarder for people to set up and run their own email servers, whether that is the outright intended effect for their mandatory changes or not.

Don't get me started on trying to set up a business newsletter account on your new corporate mail server, holy hell, the warm-up itself is pulling hairs. There's a reason companies like MailChimp, Zapier, et al make so much money.

At that point will you admit I'm right?

Nix this part and you're good, chief.

If it were an official way to train dogs then it would be a nationwide scandal. However, the handlers can always train them in their own time. After all, besides a K9 being a partner, they also live with their handlers. I wouldn't be surprised if some handlers have done just that - to alert on a subtle (subtle enough) physical queue or even command, like "Search buddy" instead of "search go."

You say it causes no harm to society but they'll argue it causes immense harm to God's plan, or whatever. They can also point to the plummeting birth rates which are now almost below the level to maintain the American system. It's a problem that is being debated amongst the highest members of the house and Congress. Of course the reason isn't abortion and is much more complex and societal and due to uncertainty about the environment and wanting to raise children when the parents are a decade a way from buying a house on two full-time incomes now and how much worse it's going to get for their hypothetical children.

My point is you have to see it through their worldview, and understand how they believe it affects them, now only see it through yours.

Oh wow with a name like eye4fraud I never would have guessed they were legitimate and widely used but it looks like you're right.

This explains the 4 different "Hey! I got your number at the XX meetup." and "Hey, let's go play golf tomorrow!" type texts ove gotten this week. Trying to validate info.

EDIT: RTFA (says to myself)... this just makes it harder for shell companies to setup shop in the US and get blocks of US numbers to make VOIP calls/texts from. Someone will at least be held accountable, so they have to burn people (in jail) or get fined etc in their home country.
