  • That’s just one village.

    "According to the Information Bureau of the Provisional Revolutionary Government of South Vietnam (PRG), a shadow government formed by North Vietnam in 1969, between April 1968 and the end of 1970 American ground troops killed about 6,500 civilians in the course of twenty-one operations either on their own or alongside their allies. "

    “Tiger Force, a reconnaissance unit of the 101st Airborne Division, probably murdered hundreds of civilians during a 6-month period in 1967”

    and from bombing:

    “Estimates for the number of North Vietnamese civilian deaths resulting from U.S. bombing range from 30,000 to 65,000.[35][4] Higher estimates place the number of civilian deaths caused by American bombing of North Vietnam in Operation Rolling Thunder at 182,000.[36] American bombing in Cambodia is estimated to have killed between 30,000 and 150,000 civilians and combatants.”

    Edit: I haven’t done extensive research and as was pointed out the actual numbers might be much higher, and my figures don’t include deaths and damage from Agent Orange chemicals


  • In the US obscene drawings of underage characters in sexual situations is illegal under the Protect act “Section 1466A of Title 18, United States Code, makes it illegal for any person to knowingly produce, distribute, receive, or possess with intent to transfer or distribute visual representations, such as drawings, cartoons, or paintings that appear to depict minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct”

    Some states explicitly prohibit cartoon pornography





  • IMO the big problem with this is for old APKs that were created before this new developer registration requirement- you won’t be able to install them at all without rooting or using a different vanilla Android version.

    It prohibits developers from creating apps and maintaining their anonymity but it also prevents scammers from anonymously stealing people’s money with fake apps.

    Will be a big problem if their developer registration process is difficult or used as a restriction somehow to govern who can register.
