> young people think that the people who wrote software 30 years ago were just plain stupid and all wrote crappy code. It's understandable. None of us back then had anywhere near the "copying and pasting javascript from stacke

Remember the last time 20 different entities forked gold, and battles erupted over which one was "the one true gold"? Neither do I.

Planes gliding to a safe landing after losing power isn't something anyone should be harboring disbelief of to begin with. I've experienced it twice myself. The surprising part of that story was the seemingly endless string of fu

As a result of a few close friends having children, I was recently introduced to certain channels run by parents who seem to have had children specifically to be used as youtube props. It's pretty sad. It's probably safe to assum

It's convenient that simply disabling comments allows youtube to continue monetizing these videos while pretending pedos aren't their main audience.

Out of curiosity, why would you choose a browser extension over an actual VPN that tunnels all of your traffic?

Generating outrage is still a cleaner business model than monetizing pre-teen crotch shots, which is the business model you seem to be defending here.

I assume surfshark is a "free VPN" extension? If so, you're probably doing the opposite of protecting your privacy by using it. Using Chrome is also generally a poor choice.

Thanks to ALPR-laden vehicles constantly cruising around collecting this data for sleazy companies like Vigilant, this is probably already happening. This will be made even easier as more car manufacturers start installing GPS, wifi and 4G

What would you call the near-daily exit scams, pump and dumps and ponzi schemes in the "crypto" world if not "cheating"?

Bitcoin is giving heroin dealers the keys to the money factory, which is obviously much better.

Would you also be okay with your cell service provider censoring your calls and texts? After all, it's their platform you're communicating on.

That's not a very good excuse for what has happened here, particularly since the "entertainment piece" was presented as a documentary.

It's almost impressively sleazy that the dirtbags at that "influencer" marketing agency were able to double dip on this scam while simultaneously gaining the ability to spin things in order to make themselves look better.

Not as stoked as "blockchain" ICO scammers will be that they don't have to steal pictures for their "staff" pages anymore.

What the fuck is going on in this thread? It seems that either numerous pro-SA trolls are hard at work, or SV liberals are suddenly just fine with women being kept on digital leashes and treated as property?

Are you saying you don't see the difference between video games, and an app that is meant to harm/control actual living human beings?

These companies collect that data specifically to use it against you for their own financial gain.

How many more decades does the "tech" industry get to continue using the "you can't regulate us because we're new and stuff, also innovation or something" line for? I've been working in this industry for n

Given Uber's history, I'd be inclined to assume the worst.

It would take a seriously sleazy group of people to not only come up with this idea, but implement it and continue to defend it after caught. Apparently the "tech" world has the definition of "innovation" mixed up with t

If they were trying to cover his first name, they did a pretty terrible job of it.

They didn't call her "leech-like", they called her behavior "leech-like".. and it was. Should pregnant women be exempt from any type of judgement regardless of their behavior?
