It's not a link to a sponsor. It's a YouTube info page about what it means for a video to have the "Contains sponsorship" tag.

"...except as a punishment for crime" -13th amendment

Maybe "former" slave plantation isn't an accurate description.

Those aren't even real people. Those "usernames" are the names of custom emojis you can use in Twitch chat. Still weird in context, but I can see how it would be even more creepy if you didn't know that.

Or they try to refill prescriptions that aren't supposed to be. I got a call from them saying they had contacted my doctor and she wouldn't let them refill my short term antibiotics, so I should call and fix that so they can give me more that I don't need.

Hate speech in the United States

In a Supreme Court case on the issue, Matal v. Tam (2017), the justices unanimously reaffirmed that there is effectively no "hate speech" exception to the free speech rights protected by the First Amendment and that the U.S. government may not discriminate against speech on the basis of the speaker's viewpoint.

It's not a crime on its own in the US, but if it incites imminent lawless action that can be a crime.

The cars already have decent GPUs to process the camera data for driving assistance features, so someone at the company probably just thought it would be neat to do something with that computing power when it's not being used for driving.

At least one of those lines goes back on itself at some point, so my assumption is that it's tracking where each country has been over time.

This is why, as a native English speaker, I just never express my emotions.

Doesn't he know it's rude to eat on public transit? He should wait until his stop.
