    I haven’t even read the article, and I already hate it just by the title. I shall now go and read the article itself. The primary reason I hate it already is because anything with crime is generally used to take away people’s liberty.

          To make distinctions on the basis of class or category without regard to individual merit, especially to show prejudice on the basis of ethnicity, gender, or a similar social factor.

            Nope, going to need more than the American Heritage dictionary #2 definition from you on this one.

            What does it mean to discriminate? What groups of people are protected from it under law? What are the penalties for it? In your own words and using your own thoughts.

              Sounds like you just want to find the loop holes of doing a hate crime. Have a good day!

                Sounds like you have no individual thought and default to personal attacks because you lack critical thinking skills.

                I would return the pleasantry but you aren’t deserving of kind words considering the aforementioned personal attack.

    Just by looking at it I know for them cybercrime is ad-blocking and piracy. Meanwhile phone scams are the most common form of “”“cyber”“” crime and no one bats an eye on them.

      The fact that the phone system hasn’t been overhauled to prevent spoofing is a sign of how little anyone actually gives a shit about helping people.
