There's a post on reddit about some dude who gave his phone to a friend (wiped it, new iCloud, everything), and the undeleted photos are from when OP owned the phone.

You can have a difference of opinions with regard to sexual and gender identities, and not be rude about it. This is just rude though.
You weren't around for the 2016 presidential elections.
We tried this already - getting ethics in game journalism.
It didn't work so well.
But it's not like insurance is going to help. If you buy a gun that gets used in a shooting, it's still used in a shooting. The only difference is that someone might get money, but it doesn't actually solve any problem.
What it does do is place a regressive tax on gun ownership.
One could argue that they were the ass hole first by releasing an unfinished game. Just playing devils advocate here though.
Especially December. Between, say, Nov 15th and Jan 15th, things slow way down in corporate, unless you're in an industry where things are backwards.
By progressive and youth, you mean millennials, right? Who are as old as.... 40.
You know what else lasts 10 years? Quality cotton t-shirts.
Pre George W. Bush, it was perfectly legal to discharge student debt in bankruptcy. That made loans harder to get, and consequently, kept college prices from these insane increases.
If I never got the email, does that mean I wasn't effected?

Not joking. It absolutely was about ethics, at first. The initial kickoff was the boyfriend accusing the girl (Zoë Quinn?) of sleeping with someone else for a better review. That's ethics in a nutshell. I don't think that anyone really cared about the game, or who was involved, but rather that the state of the industry was such that you could accuse a well known game reviewer of being unethical, and it was more believable than not.
The fact is, reviewers had already sold their souls and a AAA game get anything less than a 90%. Had reviewers had better ethics, probably no one would have believed the boyfriend, and the entire story would have been a nothing-burger.
Of course it went off the rails after that, the fact that the boyfriend was lying didn't help, but for a brief moment it looked like there might actually be game news/review industry reform. It was a glorious 24 or so hours.
