How long will it take until the idiot consumers will notice and instead buy devices that aren't at the mercy of the manufacturer?

Raping kids and being a pedophile are two very different things.

Jeff Epstein is a woman?

You should, even. Being a pedophile is not a crime. Acting it out by harming children is a crime. And by far not all child sexual abuse is done by pedophiles.

Yes, the one feature I'd love to see on Lemmy and on the fediverse in general.

That's not true; Partus sequitur ventrem was common in many societies with slavery since ancient times. The Wikipedia article gives pre-islamic Egypt as well as Korea starting in the 11th century as examples, but is very thin on this and extremely America-centric. But also in the Ottoman empire, children of slaves were slaves themselves.
