Most clothes are manufactured in countries with cheaper labor costs to cut costs - the reality is clothes are cheap to make in terms of raw materials- and dumping unwanted clothes will just destory the local economy

it's not that simple - illegal and harmful content can include things like hate speech - worth a longer read... https://www.theregister.com/2025/01/14/online_safety_act/

If I ran a small forum in the UK I would shut it down - not worth risk of jail time for getting it wrong.

In a world run by sociopaths - whistleblowing is a trap to catch the people who could if instead of reporting the issues, they organised together and then could stop you...

I've yet to see any whistleblowing case not end badly.

I think problem is product managers are very common and probably unavoidable in most organisations.

Can't have product owners without actual ownership - without real equity in the product being developed do they really own anything?

Because the budget is not infinite - there is normally a limit of time or money and it will determine the decision making process.

This doesn't mean the project will finish on time or within budget it just enables that part of the decision making process.

In the UK at least try and get building work done or buy a new car with a credit card and see how far you get...

Credit cards work great for small transactions for both consumers and businesses, but risks get high for the business (espcially small businesses) for larger transactions.
