And bidding all gaming GPUs up isn’t punitive?


Of course not. Two parties coming to an agreement in a free market to trade currency for a GPU is not a violation of a third party's right to buy that GPU. Putting two people behind bars because they traded some 1s and 0s that happen to be valued by some set of people is a flagrant violation of rights.


Which rights?


My right for me to not have you interfere with and restrict my private interactions. My right to privacy, in keeping the 1s and 0s to myself, and free speech, to publish any series of 1s and 0s I want.


lol
