It seems to be when they reach the end of their “growth” phase, and start trying to get the most revenue out of their current customer base.

At least until recently, all those companies made a good product.

Is anyone even remotely surprised by this?

He was probably meeting with someone who had one, being an ambassador and all.

Multiple news articles are saying this was a production level attack, on devices that were specifically ordered by Hesbollah.

Those devices were bought by Hesbollah, for their soldiers to use, and were connected to a network they operate.

From what I understand about the attack, even if one of these devices made it’s way into the hands of a doctor, it would have to be connected to the Hesbollah network to detonate.

I’d argue a for profit company is probably more likely to understand what their customers want, given their goal is to make as much money as possible.

They’re already at war though.

To take this to it’s logical extreme, how do you feel about assassination attempts on high ranking Nazi officials? They’re non combatants, after all.

I love that you can plug a switch into itself that essentially causes a data short circuit of the switch talking to itself without realising it.

Likely because the bulk of those wounded by this attack were not Hezbollah

What makes you think that? These pagers were bought by Hesbollah to be used by their guys.

Israelis and cops just doesn’t sound as snappy.

Misguided? No, it’s a scam, just like almost every other crypto coin.

Yeah, being trapped in a lift with a burning Ebike battery sounds like not much fun at all.

Terrorism, in its broadest sense, is the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims.

While it’s likely there were civilians hurt by this, the target was undeniably Hesbollah. So no, not terrorism.

That’s still a lot more targeted than the air strike example.

No way did lithium batteries kill eight people.

Ssh. Nobody say anything.

What on earth are you on about? He’s morbidly obese and the colour of a Cheeto, of course we’ve noticed.

It’s just attacking someone’s appearance is quite distasteful, and there’s no shortage of other things to criticise him for.
