  • If you are responding to spam mails in an attempt to stop them, you are informing the sender that someone is looking at the mails. The best option is to block the sender if the mails are repeated and stick the mail in your spam folder. There is no point in blocking mails that will only arrive one time. Adding mails to the spam folder informs your ISP that it is spam. Some ISPs are proactive with spam accounts and block them at the server.

    I totally agree people should research news stories these days. It is easy to make money from sensationalism. However, in this light:

    For example, EA was voted “Worst Company in America” multiple years in a row, when it’s really just a software company whose worst sins would probably amount to gross overworking/general poor treatment of their employees.

    How about loot boxes and how it was designed to attract the gullible to throw cash at the company. Those gullible people stole money from parents in some cases and bankrupted them in the process. So no, this is not some minor discretion. EA was recognised within the gaming community as being the most egregious when it came to loot boxes, but they are certainly not a solo entity in this type of venture.

    I agree this is still not as bad as the tragedy that chocolate companies have adopted to make money. They don’t just use child labour though, there is plenty evidence of children being abducted into slavery also.

    As for NK being not a wonderful place to live. This is not true as it is a great place to live for some. Even George Orwell recognised that by stating “All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others”.

    Let us see that same opinion once you have been the victim of a burglary. I have replaced two back doors to the tune of a few thousand quid. I spent years with higher home insurance because of the claims. Yet they never even got in. My cameras only record when my property line is breeched.
