Yep. The Hutt Valley hasn't been too bad, but I really feel for people in Wellington City.

Oh, definitely not.

Me too actually, it's all very confusing.

It's good to know Wellington isn't the only region whose infrastructure is a total shitshow.

Definitely underfunded, overworked, and probably mentally clocked out.

The German government has actually offered to help with the investigation and cleanup, although I don't have a source to hand for that.

So yes, they have actually offered to help.

Consider that this was written by a journalist, who are often not that bright, what I suspect happened is aftermarket rims were fitted to the vehicle, and didn't fit.

Either way, it would have been the entire wheel most likely.

The owner of that vehicle has clearly made a lot of bad decisions lately.

I wonder if it's as simple as forgetting to torque the lug nuts, or was the wrong type of rim fitted to the vehicle?

Yeah, that's a very good point.

He's a New Zealander who drives cars really fast. And likes Whittakers, apparently.

Neither am I.

I'd love to have an actual legal professional weigh in on this.

So, taking sexually explicit images from their account and sharing them counts, but would merely linking to the content be enough?

your dentist will most certainly tell you about the new dental tech out there when you visit

Yeah, because I visit the dentist all the time...

I'm not getting into an argument over a point you made in the first place, I don't care enough about your opinion.

I disagree with your last point, regional restrictions are trivially easy to bypass, and it's entirely possible someone else could have found her content and alerted them.

She should have known this was a possibility, although it was definitely a malicious act on the part of the ex.

Apparently they did.

Yeah, I wonder if sharing a link counts as distribution?

I mean, just look at how much advertising there is for VPNs, where they explicitly tell you they can be used to bypass regional restrictions.

They had to know those regional restrictions were easy to bypass.

It depends on the product. How often do your friends and family tell you about their new toothbrush?

Relatively mundane items just aren't talked about all that much.

Nah, you can't sell a product if nobody knows about it.

I agree that a good product will be marketed through word of mouth, but that takes years to build, and people have to actually buy the product in the first place.

Yeah, but I wouldn't have expected merely drawing their attention to it would be such a serious matter.

I wonder what would have happened if she had sent materiel that wasn't sexually explicit? Would merely telling people about the OnlyFans account have been enough?
