I keep hearing my friends complain about the status of the servers. I'm just still dumbfounded that people heard it was essentially online single player and bought this anyway. They killed Warcraft III They killed Overwatch Why is blizzard going to pick up the ball on D4? Genuine question, no hate.

Collections agencies need to provide you with an itemized list of what you owe and to who. If a hospital gives out this information, especially if they didn't even try to collect it themselves, they have violated HIPPA. Will a collections agency give you a document proving they vioated HIPPA? No. Do you owe debts on something w/o receipts? No.

As many of you have already heard, Reddit has announced that they are interpreting their Mod Code of Conduct to mean that moderators can be removed from their communities for 'vandalism' if they continue to participate in the protest against their policy on 3rd party apps. This is ultimately Reddit's Web site to run: they are free to make any rules change they want, at any time they want. We can't stop them. They are also free to interpret their existing rules to mean whatever they say they mean. But- for now, at least- I am free to say that it is utterly false to claim that participating in a protest against Reddit is 'vandalism'. Breaking windows is vandalism. Egging a house is vandalism. Scrawling 'KILROY WUZ HERE' on a bathroom stall is vandalism. Vandalism is destruction or defacement of another's property- not disagreeing with them while happening to be on their property. This stretch of the definition of 'vandalism' beyond all believable bounds implicitly endangers a huge variety of speech on the site by users, not just moderators. If a politely-worded protest which goes against the corporate interests of Reddit is 'vandalism', the term can be distorted to include any speech damaging to someone with a sizable ownership stake in Reddit- including: Criticism of Citadel, Citadel LLC, Kenneth Griffin, Elon Musk, or Tesla Criticism of the DTCC, the FED, or Cede & Co Criticism of any Warner Bros. property, due to Reddit parent company Advance Publications' sizable stake in WB Criticism of Microsoft, Amazon, or Apple, (Reddit investor, Fidelity Investments', first, second, and third-largest holdings) Criticism of United Healthcare (Fidelity's fourth-largest holding) Criticism of Fortnite, Gears of War, League of Legends, or any one of a huge number of other games made by Reddit investor Tencent and its subsidiaries Criticism of the Chinese government's genocide of the Uighur Muslims, repression of Hong Kong and the Tianmen massacre, due to their hooks in Tencent's leadership News stories critical of prominent Reddit investor and Republican megadonor Peter Thiel. Are you skeptical of the power that moderators hold over discourse and discussion on Reddit? Good. Such skepticism is healthy- and applying it to the motivations and interests of Reddit's moderators and its admins shows why this change is a threat to the whole platform, not any one group. If you had the opportunity to take money under the table (well above the reddit 10B valuation) to intentionally sabotage your own platform, would you do it?
