That's such a weird take, I'm not sure it's not an attempt at rage baiting.

They are both remarkably similar in that regard.

Certain types of advertising is illegal where I'm from. In particular: political adverts of any kind, and ads that target children.

I never considered it all that much of a paradox. If anything, it's a linguistic contradiction. It's a question of whether we should tolerate someone (in-)directly causing/wishing harm onto others. It also doesn't matter whether they understand it themselves.

A lot of aspects that are considered "political", are arguably just "harm onto A that benefits B". I think it is right to call these out. Universal health care, education, affordable housing, etc. Take off the capitalistic monocle, and certain "rights" and "wrongs" are painfully obvious.

I got the lifetime pass 5 years ago. I've switched to JF because of the disappointment so far about a year ago.

JF is exactly what I wanted and needed plex to be, and everything added since is a worsened product. The lifetime pass was an attempt at getting the peace of mind of "then you just have it". If anything, only FOSS can give that.

Relevant section on Wikipedia:

The government may not criminally punish immigrants based on speech that would be protected if said by a citizen.[83] On entry across borders, the government may bar non-citizens from the United States based on their speech, even if that speech would have been protected if said by a citizen.[84] Speech rules as to deportation, on the other hand, are unclear.[85] Lower courts are divided on the question, while the leading cases on the subject are from the Red Scare.

Regarding the protections against illegal searches, I think all bets are off, even for US citizens.

That's what I'm trying to do understand as well. What's the explanation for these kinds of things? What's the actual sequence of events and how conditions that lead to these things? Why would the board approve of this kind of compensation?

To anyone wondering. Sauna boats are not common in Norway. It's not "a thing". Please don't add it to the list of Scandinavian stereotypes 🙏
