No-go. That could possibly be viewed as antisemitic.

“free to keep until” isn’t the clearest wording.
Overly simplistic and assuming you are talking about the US: So you spent 80M making a movie but for whatever reason it never makes it out of production, you never see any return on this investment. But overall this year you made 100M from something else. When you do your taxes, you can “write off” this 80M spent as a loss, so you only have to pay taxes on the remaining 20 million. It doesn’t deduct 80M from taxes owed.
Wouldn’t/shouldn’t that give the US government a vector to tap in and intercept said communications?

Usenet is a decentralized network that works very much like the fediverse here. Anything uploaded to one server gets sent out to all the servers; that’s why you can log onto lemmy.world and see posts made on say lemm.ee. Likewise something posted to one usenet server gets sent out to all the others. And these servers are being operated by individual entities (again, much like lemmy). Whoever owns the server you’re downloading from is having to pay for everything it sends out. Which is why most of the free ones will let you access the text portions but not the file downloads.
A VPN isn’t necessary. But you do need a special program to connect to usenet. It’s built into a lot of older email clients (thunderbird is a good option).
There’s no one single usenet company for the same reason there’s no one single lemmy instance. (I’m sure someone has explained it better somewhere else in this post).
in the era of free services, why do you still have to pay for Usenet access?
Bandwidth costs money. And usenet isn’t collecting and selling your info to recoup those costs like most “free” services. A lot of ISPs do offer free usenet access to customers, albeit somewhat neutered. You can browse the bulletin boards but most of the file downloads are going to be filtered out. That’s the part you have to pay for.
Is it actually illegal? Has anyone in the US ever been charged for selling digital software they had legally acquired?
US President Joe Biden’s son Hunter supposedly filmed himself smoking crack while driving a car at a speed of 172 miles per hour (around 276 kmph) as he was on his way to Las Vegas,
In the leaked photo from 2018, Hunter, now aged 53, could be seen holding a crack pipe, then lighting and smoking it as he drove through a road full of houses, which was later recognised as Arlington, Virginia.
That’s a 35 hour road trip. We’re going to need a LOT of crack.
But for real, we really dodged a bullet by not electing Hunter as president.
Authorities used a technique known as encapsulation to destroy the drug, pulverizing the seized blocks with waste before mixing the resulting fine powder with cement, sand and glass.
Someone totally took that home. “We turned that 20 tons of coke into 20 tons of concrete. Job well done pack it up.”
what are the Democrat voters going to do, vote 3rd party?
Sit on their hands like they did in 2016.
“Genocide Joe” is a little crass, but he absolutely deserves to be taken to task for his blind support of the IDF/IOF. That’s more important to me as a voter than hearing circle jerk promises about known positions. We know he’s pro abortion rights, he’s shown that. Now it’s time to address the elephant in the room.
Reminds me of The Love Toilet from SNL.
My cat wipes the condensation off windows so she can look out.
Oh no, not another final warning.
Brass and Polonium most likely.
Calling it naive doesn’t give proper credit to the pair of huge brass balls it took to come out and say this in the first place.
The poor is going to get to wait in line at urgent care for 6 hours waiting to get it attended to and get sent home with asprin. You really think our medical system is equal among classes?
