Learning Swedish now, since I already speak passable Norwegian, it's not the hardest endeavor.

Nothing to do with that, China bans all explicit content, whether it's porn videos, photos, or in suggestive text form.

Are people really actively using tablets? I thought that was more of a hype and is now something that lies around and gets occasional use on the couch, but not really productive.

A secondary device can't be identified by kernel level anti-cheat either. If you have a standalone device that identifies as a USB keyboard and mouse and then generates inputs that give you a 100% headshot count, there's nothing you could detect through the kernel, since all it detects are keystrokes and clicks.

Their target market must be in the double digits! And I'm not talking relative.

Only the king or queen (if rightful heir to the throne) is immune, in accordance with article 5 of the Norwegian codex.

The king does have the right to pardon criminals though. He doesn't exactly seem to be very fond of the kid though, and is generally seen as a very just man and close to the people.

Sounds like the attack scenario is very sophisticated and targeted, and only works within the range of Bluetooth low energy (BLE) connectivity, so 10-15 meters under best circumstances. At that point they might as well eavesdrop on my calls in person.

GDPR. First time opening a European website? German ones like this are particularly transparent (by law, not choice).
