Self regulation, really?

Startups could never self regulate and never will. And a few bad startups can be enough to do massive damages.

Look Cambridge analytica: this startup alone made the case for regulations like GDPR.

As a user, I really am pleased with gdpr, so that "do-no-evil" startups stop selling my data around and not caring at all about my privacy.

I have a window sitting next to my Linux and I use it about twice a year, it's no maintenance at all (less than a VM I would say)

Then use a dual boot with Windows. It's quite simple to set up.

Linux is the best os for programming imo (especially if you develop software for Linux servers), so why not keep both?

I don't believe this. It just depends on the motivation of the entrepreneur. I know entrepreneurs who created non-profit startups and work to improve public services, what do you say about this?

If your motivation is only money, I'm not sure you can go as far as when you have a true goal. Look at Elon musk, I'm sure he could have made money much more easily if he would have continued into banking services like PayPal.

I think we are slowly gaining consciousness about the danger of ads. It's really pernicious but I think has overall terrible effects on people (self estime, food / alcohol consumption...). And not just ads, but also product placement in movies / TV shows.

I think it's terrible for our health and our minds.

I think we're underestimating the global health issue due to online advertisement (alcohol, smoking, or just bad eating habits). And I'm not speaking of attention disorder of so-called 'multitask kids' caused by social media that have business models based on ads, and do everything to grab your attention

what's not nonsense is to view humans as rational beings, and the free market as the perfect system.

What it says is that economists should include more psychology and less mathematics in their theories.
