    Got a source on this? Your talking points sounds like they were written by Rettighedsaliancen. Not a neutral party.

    These piracy conglomerates are often run by organized crime or rouge states (like North Korea). They funnel money to other criminality, abuse/violence and online services for criminal activities.

    These sites are grossly over-represented in tampering with users' hardware and information.

    We know this. Law enforcement knows this. It's time the law acknowledges this. Every other country should do the same.

    In Denmark you can opt out of spam not addressed to a specific person. And Post Nord doesn't deliver those anyway.

    My personal experience is very far from the writers. I only get posts from friends or groups I follow.

    The ads I get at least look to be from reputable companies/organisations.

    I am not in the USA, and I also block what ever groups fb thinks I should follow. So that might influence my experience.

    That said, facebook does feel like a dying beast. And I for one won't miss it.
    But all my friends are there so I have to be for now.
