E-ink displays are opaque. The Kindles with illumination use side-lighting with a layer of plastic that guides the light across the surface of the device. They are effectively front-lit using LEDs situated around the perimeter of the screen.

If you participate in killing someone, you ~~should feel~~are literally guilty.

I mean, that's what the word means.

To be fair, so do other four-legged mammals.

I was you once. In 2018, I bought a dumb, black-and-white laser printer (Brother HL-L2300D). It has done nothing but print whenever asked. I've only had to change the toner once (to be fair, I print infrequently). It doesn't require special software. It was cheap. I highly recommend going this route.

Pot calling the pan burnt-arsed

Thank you for this!

Well, in this case, it is a lie of omission. It is true that Android devices are massive trackers. But, so are Apple devices.

I'm shocked there isn't a constant media outrage

The media is generally owned by very wealthy people and, as a result, reports in ways that benefit the rich and powerful. Centralization of media is very bad for democracy.

Maybe it'll be used like "no loitering" laws. Often not enforced, but useful when you don't like something and can call it illegal.

It shows how far the pendulum of corporate power has swung since then.

Is it that we don't know how to make concrete of equal/greater resilience? Or that modern concrete optimizes for something else (I'm guessing cost)? I didn't RTFA.

Not sure why everyone is so upset

Because it's upsetting. The fact that it has been upsetting for years doesn't make it no longer upsetting.

The attitude that old news shouldn't be upsetting enables upsetting behavior. And, quite frankly, I find that upsetting :-)
