Base iPhone is midrange device, not a flagship.

That's really weird explanation on part of CF CEO, as just after DNS request you usually connect to the site which address you requested and site gets a lot more details including full IP address anyway.

No company bigger than a few tens of people has principles. They have sales KPI, that go up or down depending on marketing campaigns.

If by "responsibly" you mean strip customers of privacy under old story of protecting children then sure.

Why are you manipulating people?

Probably goryllions as your friends nicely put it :-) why are you asking instead providing a number? Whatever I say, somebody will say that this answer is US propaganda, since it will be way to low to support idea that US is baddest of the bad guys.

I agree with your sentiment, but this thread is about communism. As someone who actually lives in post-communist country I can assure you that net effect is not what you're looking for.

Right now my life is significantly better than someone who decides to live on government welfare.

30 something years ago, when we had socialism in my country it didn't matter if you worked, got drunk or slept at work. Everybody had the same shitty flat and the same shitty products (assuming there were products at all).

This system has a lot of problems, but socialism sucked indefinitely more.

How is it different from having extra two kilograms of medical equipment in your bag?

I've no problem improving society just for the sake of it, given that everybody else also does. Sadly any bigger group of people will start getting freeloaders and I'm allergic for such BS.

I guess my grandparents who were "liberated" by Stalin's army were also paid off by US propaganda?
