Poll requires Facebook
0/10 would not vote again
- vertis 13y agoOr twitter. Honestly, It's easier than making people sign up for an account (safer too, since they don't leave an unhashed password in their database)
- ggambetta 13y agoOr twitter: ---------- This application will be able to: Read Tweets from your timeline. See who you follow, and follow new people. Update your profile. Post Tweets for you. ---------- SRSLY?
- milesokeefe 13y agoEh, vote then revoke access to the app.
- mverwijs 13y agoMaking it very complicated to cast a simple vote.
- Sprint 13y agoHow do you know it does not immediately utilise those rights?
- brokenparser 13y agoPlease just say use
- Sprint 13y agoTo me "utilise" has a slightly different meaning that "use". I am not a native speaker though. Is it just a fancy way of saying "use"? I thought it implied "using" an option/feature/opportunity to do something. So one "utilises" that to do something.
- tjaerv 13y agoEnded up not voting because they are asking for way too many Twitter OAuth privileges (including following and posting with my account, plus updating my profile).
- repsilat 13y agoProbably because of /b/'s vote manipulation in previous years. Another reason we "can't have nice things" on the internet -- systems that rely on implicit codes of civility still seem to break down when people can remain anonymous.
- skimmas 13y agoNevertheless is kind of weird that in orther to show that I'm not a bot I have to allow some app to read and post on my tweeter timeline... I guess this vote is a joke. Snowden might win but the lesson is that people haven't learned anything. :)
- alcari 13y ago/b/'s vote manipulation lead to the selection of moot as most influential person, which is clearly correct, as moot's users influenced the voting process to ensure it.
- rtpg 13y agoexcept the award isn't "who is the most influential person on the internet", it's supposed to be "the most influential person of the year on the planet". It's like when you cite raw polling results from the Daily Kos, and say its representative of American opinion. There's a lot of bias that needs to be taken into account.
- ZoFreX 13y agoI have no problem voting non-anonymously, but I'm not happy that I would have to share my friends list. That's too much.
