Apparently companies like Coca Cola, Microsoft and Amazon pulled their ads because they noticed the placement of them was sometimes alongside videos of hateful, offensive or pro-terrorist content. Is all hate speech welcome in your opinion ? Should it be allowed no matter the target, the language, the source, the endgame? Or should hate be contained, restricted, confined, censored? Why?

I realize they are not married, and I vowed I would not continue a chat even if it were friendly, with a married person, but would you if the person had a gf? I feel badly just halting /cutting off any continued chat, but I also feel weird to continue.... If I had a bf and saw him chatting with a girl I'd feel low... what are your thoughts ? I once did chat w/ a guy IRL who had a girlfriend, but it was just at a concert and he was my seatmate... he was great and even complimented me, but I d idn't even say thanks ....lol. I felt like if I did I'd be almost flirting or something, and just kind of looked away. We did laugh but then of course, the concert was over. What do you think of it online ? (in a friendly way... I'm still feeling wary about it) less

Take your blood pressure, weight, measure your height in the doctor's office? What are their limitations? Will they be exceeded as robots progress on the road leading to independent artificial intelligence wherein they teach themselves/train themselves/learn to get better? Or is that day already here?
