What if you woke up tomorrow and completely lost access to your bank account, credit cards, PayPal, and Venmo, all because of something you posted online?

Are you being intentionally dense? There's no article, only video.

[–] zod000@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They are clearly implying that they don't want a video, they want an article. I also would, but since there isn't one I'm just hear for the comments.

[–] binux@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah, they're also implying that it's on the commenter for not understanding that, despite them only trying to be helpful. It's just petty and pedantic completely needlessly.

It's weird how hostile we are to reading, and how malleable we are to video.

I'm the same way about expecting people to cite real sources; incidentally, I caught a bunch of flak last week on Lemmy for asking for literally any other source than one self-aggrandizing vlogger.

We are not. But some people are, apparently
