This is a ridiculous response to that statement. Of course babies have survived for the entirety of human history.

But not all babies.

And telling a parent not to worry about SIDS because most kids are fine, and the rest are just a statistic isn’t going to assuage the fear that these companies prey on.

I got wfh briefly when our offices flooded, and whatever undiagnosed things I have going on in my brain would not let me focus on my work in any way, shape, or form.

I wasn’t running around doing home things or playing video games or anything. I was sat in front of my computer, mentally incapable of doing the job I was trained in and skilled at. My brain just refused to go into work mode. My anxiety spiked and I got so frustrated at my mental block that I was in tears at one point. As soon as the officer was open, I returned before anyone else.

I like the idea of wfh, and will definitely try it again one day, but it seems that I need the change of environment to get my brain into gear.

Benefit of the doubt that you aren’t asking in bad faith.

Most people aren’t demanding Mullvad fire the founder, but that also doesn’t mean that we have to give him money to donate to fascists.

Mullvad are free do what they like with their right wing founder. Just like customers are free to refuse to fund anti-immigration policies. If Mullvad doesn’t like that, it’s up to them to decide how to appeal to customers.

Nobody is denying that Mullvad is a good product, but I need this specific vpn less than I need a safer future for my children.
