  Yes, i got it, but it depends from the distribution. If there is correlation on where the bad apples appears (e.g. for cultural or socio economic conditions), it is more likely that we are close to the case of 3 bunches (that is 30 apples, just 5 more than the “original” apples)

  If we stop this parallelism (that is what I disagree with) and we move to the actual issue with the police, i think it’s a problem with all power positions: all positions that come with power (no matter how small) attract certain kind of people. This is true from the folks that check tickets in public transportation to teachers. Police is worse because there is a lot of unchecked power and close to no accountability

  The solution is not how to do bin packing of the bad apples, the solution is reducing the power, increasing accountability and add checks (e.g. while body cam have some privacy implications that i don’t like, it’s a step in that direction)

  between 30 and 250, depending from the distribution… And your point is? 🤷

  And this is one of the many reasons that these days I create a @duck.com email address for each website.

  My password manager (Bitwarden) happily generates for me both the mail and the password… now instead of having to look up for the unique password for each website I need to look for both the unique password and unique email 🤷

  Furthermore if they are incompetent enough to make shitty regexp they are for sure incompetent to keep their db safe from hacking/leaking… and I am fine with a duck.com address being locked, less so with my actual email address

  The real question is… Are these people repeatidly hurting you or they were one offs?

  If it’s repeated… Well that is an issue… You don’t have a defense mechanism.

  If it’s one off… Well you just are an optimist person 😃
