ABOUT FUCKING TIME. Take edge and shove it so far up your data tracking sphincter of a face hole.

Can we please get these laws on a global level.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

Nope. But hey look, the Democrats are coming to take your guns!

Well they'll probably reinstall it with every update anyway.

They would get massive fines if they tried that.

I’m not disagreeing, but what entity would enforce those global laws?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same way laws are enforced now? Each country passing it and the companies needing to comply to continue operations.

Why are they force to comply right now if the laws don’t work?

You’re missing the point.

The ICC only has power in countries that let them have power. If a given country doesn’t feel like doing that, the ICC has precisely zero recourse or ability to enforce.

What should citizens in countries like that (which may or may not be dictatorships, single-party states, theocracies, or some other restrictive, un-democratic, and/or xenophobic form of government) do?

La Haye International Court of Justice, of course.

And what happens when the country in question is one that doesn’t care that much about the ICC, and responds “make me”?

To wit: The United States has famously refused to subordinate itself to the ICC
