We mostly have Mothers Against Drunk Driving, a neo-temperance movement, to thank for that

Around $2K. I spend cash rarely so it's mostly cash that I've been given by others that I have not deposited. Since it hasn't been withdrawn by me either it's untraceable to me. I primarily use it in the event I can get an under-the-table cash discount from tradesmen in Minecraft.

I don't think that kind of buy-and-hold strategy is what OP is talking about regarding "active trading" though, compared to someone actively buying and selling individual stocks, relying on timing for profitable buys and sells. And I agree with the OP, this is generally a losing strategy over time compared to dumping things into funds and sitting. But it can be fun in the same way that sports betting can be: if you think you really do have a better-than-average insight into some company or another, you can lose up to 100% of your investment (avoiding margin), but you can make 100% or more.

Finished The Moon is a Harsh Mistress finally. Enjoyed it. At this specific moment the character of Mike seems eerily close to being a realistic possibility.
No, I think that's greatly overstating the implicit promise they made. It was a perpetual license, i.e., not a subscription. There were never any guarantees about the software continuing to function past its published support lifecycle. I'd agree with you if they had pushed an update to disable it, but bitrot is an utterly foreseeable consequence of using unsupported software.
