I don't think you were making this argument, but I want to highlight that data is not morally neutral. Google Maps drives even less customers to stores that are smaller, and already have difficulty getting customers.

I’m pretty sure that if everything would have been EE2E on Telegram it would never have reached the size and popularity that it has.

I don't know what you're saying here because it makes no sense. No one who uses or shills for Telegram thinks lack of EE2E is a good thing, absolutely no one. They use it despite of lack of EE2E (ignorance or ideologically-flavored ignorance).

Being anonymous isn't incompatible with helping people

You're missing the point I've made completely.

Do people create mods for games or create open source software solely for recognition?

They can't gain recognition, uploading anonymously. But if someone purely wants the crack for the game to exist they could do it

What is BORU?

Whether that would be worse than running Denuvo malware is up for debate lol

I don't buy this. It's easy to upload files anonymously.

Like, posts are old because there’s little new content

Yeah, but you could be underestimating the effect of the Active sorting bumping old posts, which leads to a few posts threads rising over and over. Perhaps there's more eagerness to make new threads than you can see, because most of those new threads don't spark the fire of discussion and get quickly buried.

Active sorting is more like 4chan, Hot sorting is like Reddit or HN.
