So much info on beer. Great. I will be doing an A/B, blind comparison between some of the ones mentioned. Lets see if German beer is the best, just like KPA in the amp modeling world
For me freedom of speech has great value. Only in the absolute worse cases, where there are clear incitements to violence, would I advocate for legal limits; that's just necessary if "freedom of speech" is to be maximized, sustained. This doesn't mean it's moral to say A nonetheless. There are distinctions between law and ethics, even there being a connection.
Without turning this into politics (and risking being banned for derailing my own thread! -- just kidding) there are strong global movements, in UK as well, against freedom of speech that are presented as having "good intent" but themselves have questionable ends.
In regards to online bulling and texting: it's an unfortunate part of the Internet "bringing people closer" (or more far apart, in some ways -- I doubt anyone would talk to me like that once they saw me in person). I strongly believe in grassroots responses to such cases, not so much legal ones either. I write politics, to a bigger audience before and had gotten used to hate mail mail, all kinds of threats as well. It was just normal on that front. There's just something weird when some of it is triggered due to.... gear
To be clear: my intent in starting this thread was not starting some kind of a witch hunt, so I didn't want to single anyone out even if I have my suspicions. Not that there's no moral value in standing up against such harassment; there definitely is. And I'm glad people's responses here have been as classy and mature, measured.
Cheerios and have a nice week
PS: no more crazy ass texts from weird accounts after this thread got responses, as I said before Thanks
