Don't they have to have a contract with the state to have access to the cables? IE: any ISP would have a state contract. If it ceased those contracts, it wouldn't be able to function as an ISP.
"port 443 is serving up a response when jaruzel.com is requested on that port"
The only response is a 404, which is exactly what should be displayed (to the best of my knowledge) for a domain that isn't configured for that IP/port when there are other sites utilizing that IP/port.
Isn't it supposed to learn from you? IE, answering technically correctly but what it thinks is incorrect is slightly annoying for you, but better for the system in the long run. (ie better for everyone)
I think that's pretty heavily reliant on the rest of the industry. If it's an industry that no one feels very strongly about, there's probably something to be said for hanging out in the middle: some scummy shit, but no nickle and diming. If it's something significant where every company is hated already, a new company coming in with nothing more than "we want nothing more than to provide a good service" is likely going to thrive.
Can you be compelled to provide something that you don't have access to? Were anyone else in this situation, wouldn't it be plausible to simply claim you don't know that password?

Yeah, as would be expected from most people on this site. Sad thing is, there's a bunch of pissed-off gamers right now who were on the hype train expecting Ryzen to be the next big thing in gaming, but it's far from it. Ryzen is great, just not amazing for gaming.
While you do raise some valid points, and some that I disagree with, I've grown to appreciate such apps as of late. There was a time not long ago where half the shit on my computer was Java because that was the only practical way to make a decent cross-platform application without having to relearn different things for each platform. Yeah, the whole "apps built on web-technology" movement could use some refinement to reduce bloat and such, but when done correctly, it seems to work out pretty well for the most part.
I have noticed that with some Electron apps in the past, but I had actually never noticed that with Discord. I thought it was native for the first 4 months I was using it because it was just done so well, no lag and such. The one thing that usually gives away electron apps is their lack of custom right-click handling, meaning a right-click will give you the generic context menu you would normally see in a browser. Discord seems to handle all right-clicks with their own context menus which is why I never caught onto it at first.
