I'm going to be honest here, as an American I fully support you in this and hope the best for Canada. Many of us totally understand the resentment and know that our government and republican party asked for this. I hope the boycotts work and I hope they send the clearest message back. At the same time I don't have much faith I our leadership to react rationally.

Seriously. I'm from texas. Some people would happily let him come over to their car and start reaching in punching just to let it cross into castle doctrine/stand your ground territory. I was always taught to just assume people have guns in their cars and to act accordingly.

This article is written with some wild speculations by both the author of the article and the source they are quoting. When cell phones are cracked for evidence they have to use write blockers when they copy the phone. They do the analysis on the copy. The original is then re-copied in court to show what was found. This way the original is never tampered with and made inadmissible, and whatever analysis bullshit you did isn't mixed in with your court room copy. What this also means is that your AI can hallucinate all it wants and make up any evidence you can imagine all day long, but when you get into the court room and have to then point to where the conclusions came from and you can't-you will be standing there with a dick on your forehead and with a case being tossed out.

Think of a more direct democracy. I will oversimplify enough to annoy those from Switzerland:

Differing levels of law require differing thresholds. Country votes on a law, the majority above the required threshold vote it in. It becomes a national law. That is easy. What about when it fails? Then look to the state level. Did it pass the threshold for your state? Yes? Then it is a state law. Failed state level? Let's look at your county/city/local level. Passed threshold? Local law.

Again, over simplified, but general idea.

Looking passed the absolutely insane answer here, no one has even brought up the whole issue of AC vs DC. Batteries are DC, while your fridge that plugs into your wall running on AC. I know they make DC ones, but it isn't like they are interchangeable.
