> "We want to start by apologizing for the confusion we have caused by incorrectly suggesting that Zoom meetings were capable of using end-to-end encryption. Zoom has always strived to use encryption to protect content in as many scenarios as possible, and in that spirit, we used the term end-to-end encryption."

Glad to hear they are starting to make improvements but waiting for public backlash to fix issues is a bad sign.
You are only storing the hash of the password so there is no reason to have arbitrary length constraints like 32. Why not make it several thousand characters?
I'm not so sure about that. The top 1% pays 37% of federal income taxes. Meanwhile, the bottom 50% paid only 3% and 44% of paid nothing at all. Depending on the source you use the middle class in America is typically considered to top out at incomes between 100k and 122k. In either case the middle class pays less than half of income taxes. Then looking at the bigger picture we see income taxes only account for 60% of all taxes.
I'm not against DOH but there are definitely some downsides. For example, your token does not get reset on network changes. This means your DNS provider can track your DNS requests across networks, including VPNs.
With normal DNS anyone in the request chain can see a stream of DNS requests but there is no context. By the time the request is one or two hops from you it will be interwoven with tens of thousands of other requests making it impossible to know which one came from who.
With DOH the DNS provider will have a unique identifier to correlate requests back to a specific system/user. Google offers one of the most used DNS services, with DOH they will be able to track all DNS requests you make even if you turn on a VPN.
I am sure AWS, OCI, GCP, etc. all host scam websites with varying degrees of removal efficiency. What cases are you referring to specifically? Did they state they were not going to take these sites down or what was the context that you object to?
A Wacom tablet is not the same as a phone, it is a peripheral. This is like your Dell keyboard tracking your keystrokes and what application they go into.
Restricting hate speech restricts free speech, they are the same issue. You only have to look back a few years to understand why this is important. What we consider acceptable has changed vastly over time, if we don't have the freedom to discuss topics against the status quo we won't progress as a society.
I don't think it is that controversial in the US. There is a small, vocal minority that is against free speech but the overwhelming majority of Americans do not see things that way.
