  • The article and quiz talk specifically about these types of vectors for scams. If i assume they are all scams there is a zero % chance i get scanned in this way. Even on the two not a scams they talked about better alternatives to ensure their authenticity which i would have done as soon as i saw any of these "scams" its just a poorly written article that just assumes any wrong answers mean you are more likely to be scammed. I understand there is no way to 100% avoid being scams especially if you just out in the world but the answer from the article is dumb.

    Edit: also the censored info made it impossible to tell if it was real.

  • This quiz is dumb af. The two that weren't scams didn't give you enough info to identify if they aren't and they both just as likely to be scams? And at the end they said it was still possible for me to get scammed even though I called every single item a scam. How am i gonna get scammed if i assume they are all scams?

  • The rights they acquired through this purchase are easily worth that money alone. An investment does not have to immediately make a return. They acquired the rights to decades upon decades of films TV shows TV channels. I don't even think you understand the scale of how much they got in that deal. And there is plenty other things that they are working on that they are getting returns from. Just because you don't see it on the surface doesn't mean it ain't happening. God damn it aint hard. You're looking at a super tiny sample size with just superhero movies being the hinge case for why they did it. They got so much more than I think you realize.

  • Because it all makes money and audiences are easily manipulated. Tbh it seems like you just have a chip on your shoulder that no rational explanation for what 20th century is doing under disney will explain or satisfy. So imma be done with this cause you are objectively wrong. And Disney buying 20th century was worth it for the simple fact of less competition and the superhero properties they gained back. They really don't need shit else to make it worth it given how much money they make on cinema as is .

  • Do you have any idea how long it takes to write and produce and shoot new movies? Thats a lot of movies coming or in development for a studio. Also given that superhero movies are some of the most valuable properties in the world right now. That absolutely makes sense for just the X-Men. And they're just slowly introducing them to the universe. It's called story building. They also got along the X-Men from Fox basically having complete rights to all their characters now besides a few universal studios rights and Sony's film rights.

  • You can definitely just buy your own modem. Or buy your own Wi-Fi router. The company has to let you put their ISP modem into bridge mode. Then you can have way more control over the family members usage of the internet
