I hope not, but yeah, I suspect this will be the case.
The world is fucked, and this is a perfect microcosm of why.

McGregor assumes raping a woman is the only qualifier for president. So this makes sense.
It's my understanding that this will make it far more difficult for them to get a conviction/verdict. Going for the death penalty has certain bars to hit during a trial by jury. It's often why prosecutors go after lesser sentences on things people absolutely did the worse versions of. This gives them a much more likely guilty verdict from a jury.
By doing this, they're basically torpedoing the case, as I understand it.
Purely to try and scare people/send a message.
When he's rendered a verdict of not-guilty for the crimes that would lead to the death penalty, but is guilty of something relatively trivial, like "owning an unregistered firearm", this could come back to bite them in the ass.
But who knows. I've been hoping for the judicial system to bite the ass of fascists for almost a decade now, without much luck.
0 here as well. Really feels like a Gen X/Millennial thing.
That just sounds like capitalism
Yes, but don't let perfect be the enemy of good.

Nothing good you mean
That's exactly what they're used for. It's to prevent a vehicle from going too far in that direction, which would typically damage a structure or something expensive or harmful
Sure, but speaking as someone with a lot of knowledge of IT systems, RPO, RTO, etc., I can say that the RPO of deleting your accounts gets worse and worse for the NSA or whoever to keep track of as time goes on.
They're not the internet archive where they've got snapshots of all text ever said on the web. They've got crawlers and systems and storage tiers same as anyone else. They have to cycle those backups of their snapshots at some point, and that's when you can eventually slide your way out of their window as long as the things you've said or done are no longer on the internet anywhere. They will eventually disappear from databases and systems like PRISM.
