Historically, NSO has avoided selling to US-based clients and was banned by the US Commerce Department under President Joe Biden’s administration for allegedly supplying spyware to authoritarian governments.

Biden helped this happen. Don’t forget, voters. We need a real candidate in 2028.

And for anyone else, anywhere in the world.
Giving governments tools to fight crime that can also invade your privacy is a sure path to governments invading your privacy for any reason they deem righteous. If not the current one, surely the next one.

No no, anytime someone criticizes a democrat it’s because they love Trump. The democrats are infallible and above reproach you see, so the only reason you’d say anything they ever did was bad it’s because you’re a nazi childkiller who wants a dictator.
It’s probably not dangerous at all that we’ve positioned the US as either “uncritical support of the dems or you’re a nazi,” letting a party become unquestionable is good for sure, nothing bad could ever come of that.

I, for one, unquestionably support whatever group gets me upvotes on social media. Gavin Newsom to the moon!
Seriously though, neither party seems interested in fielding a good candidate. My request isn’t ridiculous, I just want someone who loves democracy and wants to make things better for Americans and the world.

Blaming it on dems that you voted Republican?
It’s your finger on the trigger with the gun to your own head. That’s not biden’s. This is how people with mental illness sociopathy reason their actions. Manipulation and unreasonable rules that never hold themselves accountable to themselves.

I’ll just vote third party or avoiding voting altogether if democrats run a corporate stooge.
If this bothers you, target your frustrations towards those who keep nominating them.

Complaining to me is a waste of time, energy, and only serves to make yourself feel good while doing nothing effective.

Not a spoiler: Complaining the way of blaming one evil for you doing another evil is not effective either.
Go back to soiling your diapers.
