The Game Theory of Ransoms: If your loved one was being held for ransom, would you pay? Conversely, if you are the kidnapper, would you release the hostage once you receive payment?

Jump

  • If you want a recurring business model people have to have confidence you will keep your end of the bargain

    I don't think so.

    You rather need confidence you will always stay so much more powerful than the "other side" that you will always be able to milk them. And maybe think about preparing your retirement in time.

  • statutes that protect [...] people trying to cooperate with law enforcement,

    I don't know exactly about France, but such a concept is rare in Europe in general (except England), and even more so when it comes to possession of such materials.

    In Germany, I know the tolerance is absolutely ZERO, and the excuses too. You can carry the material to the police to deliver it, and with that you have proven that you were in possession one second before (it is very different with illegal weapons btw.). Private investigators or journalists have tried to do reports about the topic, seriously and neutrally without any doubt, but got punished for possession then.

  • Always know the basic facts:

    The kidnapper is a criminal.

    The kidnapper decides his own actions, NOT YOU.

    Besides that, in a situation where I could communicate with a kidnapper, I would try to use every single second of it to tell him all kinds of insults, the worst I could imagine.

  • That doesn't count for this kind of crime.

    It's not even certain whether or not it applies at all for fediverse systems.

  • Better delete it in the same minute when you found it.

  • Probably should have given all of the evidence to the police instead of deleting some of it.

    Or maybe not. ...

    In most western jurisdictions platform operators are not liable for user content

    Around here, OP would then automatically be a suspect for possession of the material. Possession is a crime. And that is far from funny. Better have a very good lawyer from minute 1.

    • Why is there so much separation in the USA between people who identify as "black" or "white" compared to other regions like South America?

    Have you ever asked one of them about the meaning or purpose of that habit?

  • There was a civil war about it.

    I know that. I don't deny that. But what was the outcome of it? They have reunited with gritted teeth.

    Memorials are a good thing to remember people, but not very meaningful for that what I have talked about.

  • Usa has never tried to break with their own slavery/racism in the past. They have not admitted that it was wrong what they were doing, and that they will never do it again. Therefore it is still there and it remains strong.

    Although there are many who frown on racism today, it is only on the surface, only a show.

    It is like a law of nature: when you (as a people) have not learned from history, then you are bound to repeat it.

    • Why don't people going to college get HUD, Food Stamps, and free Medicare/Medicaid while enrolled? Instead of the parents footing the bill or the student working 3 jobs and school?

  • It is actually the case around here.

    The idea is derived from one of the basic human rights: education.

    It means, everybody has the same right to education (not just the rich ones), and therefore it is society's task to make sure that nobody gets denied it just because the parents are poor.
