this video's journalists even are like "dude this is incredibly scuffed", those scientists with them should be considered heroes in some sense

It is probably an indirect criticism of the "just make better decisions and you'll be rich" mentality that generally tries to put rich people on a pedestal for being geniuses who 'figured it out' and 'read between the lines' to get on top

Well I think it's kinda hard to imagine a free service that doesn't do either data collection or advertising or both (read: you are the product), it makes sense through openly being a field that has a lot of money circulating around it

The only other viable model I can personally think of is subscriptions, I find it hard to imagine that only forcing big corporations to pay to use your service, or that having it be donationbased would work with the amount of manpower and serverspace these products from within Silicon Valley typically host where they need millions maybe billions every month until they stop existing

Advertisers are likely to be much more willing to bank their ad dollars with Zuckerberg than smaller rivals.

I'm fine with any most thing that shows you cannot enable harm-to-discourse as much as Musk has. I would sooner them come to Zuckerberg than crawling back to Twitter because it didn't have an alternative. Twitter is very much a walking corpse right now, but something else coming along to snatch the could-be advertisers secure that it can stay in its fucking pit. (unless various sus governments still somehow see use in keeping it propped up)

Well they did essentially just type it but I agree with the sentiment

They are asking ISPs to lay out their best justification so that they can decide whether it's valid or not. Judging by their wording, they want a good explanation. It's good to gain understanding of something before we gut it and who better to ask for the 'best argument for' than those who enforce it?

Very good point

I would say watching the things made before the movie gives you a better grasp of who the characters are and feel more attached to what's going on, though the movies are very different from the OVA and tv show in terms of vibe, the characters act a lot more like how you would expect having watched the tv show. And I should also warn, the movies have very minimal mech fighting!
