As this study points out, however, most tumors manifest very late in life. 1981 is only 40 years ago.

Could we not pretend, please, that the US is the only country with a lot of pervasive surveillance. Because that's clearly laughable.

But there's nothing in this proposed implementation that could ever possibly result in that, because random pics of your kids would not be in a database of known CSAM content. So your pics wouldn't match the hash values.

Good luck with that. Every alternative is an order of magnitude worse and also less honest about it.

Actually, HN is, as usual, doing a great job of evaluating and discussing this issue, in real time.

This is inaccurate by definition, of course. Obviously. "My way or the highway" implies there is no alternative. But in this case, of course, if you're an adult, the Messages part of this doesn't apply to you at all, and

I know precisely what I am talking about, everything I said echoes the best public health guidance we have thus far, and I did not "callously disregard" anything. I have carefully considered the issue of whether YouTube should hav

How would you know whether the virus can be eradicated with high vaccination rates? We haven't achieved high rates. Anywhere. At all. Ever. And of course, we have a century of history of viruses that now do not exist anymore because

You know what's really a "major inconvenience"? Getting intubated and not being able to breathe well for the rest of your life, assuming you survive at all. You know what's really a "major inconvenience" for ki

You're leaving out over half of the truth, here. The idea behind universal masking is that EVERYONE is wearing the masks. In other words, the person who might infect you is masked (and cloth masks DO work very well to prevent that pers

This is unquestionably misinformation, and Rand Paul needs to have a permanent muzzle installed until covid is extinct. Masks DO WORK. Yes, N95s work better than cloth masks, usually, but cloth masks work very well for reducing the likeliho

Even if pick-and-choose subscriptions weren't cheaper than cable (which they are, for me so far at least), I'd gladly pay up to 2x the cost of Comcast service just to avoid subsidizing Comcast's evil monopoly, and how Comcast

Oh, please, make my day. Sic the Nazi boys on me, go for it. I will be happy to stand behind it.

"Most" consumers want their browsing scanned so that they have Walmart ads pushed to them while book shopping? I disbelieve.

If you think that random deflection and taunting is going to distract me, or anyone else here, from the fact that you failed to support your argument, you are mistaken.

I guess you are kinder than I am, or more forgiving, or more restrained. So I do congratulate you, since those are excellent qualities. But really, people: if we can't agree that Tucker Carlson's media org that he founded to be a

I think you need to refresh your memory on the definition of slander. But let me help: slander is a false statement . I didn't make one of those.

Answered incorrectly. You need to read the rest of the article.

by Bud 5y ago
Yes, it is, and you need to read the entire article.

False, and this shows that you didn't read the entire article. You should go and do that.

China Daily actually paid mostly (if you actually read the FARA documents that were falsely cited above as evidence) to print copies of the China Daily for dissemination in the US. That's very clear from the documents. The advertising

by Bud 5y ago
The FARA source doesn't support your conclusion here, which leaves the Daily Caller, which is a white supremacist rag that Tucker Carlson puts out. In other words, you have no evidence to support this.

Yes. Respect is earned. Apple has earned it, and you haven't. Please review what "war" means, also.

I think you need to review what "by force" actually means.

That's still about a 500% markup. Outrageous by any standard.

With the death of the Fairness Doctrine, and its non-applicability to anything other than broadcast media, what mechanisms would you say Americans still have to "stand up" for journalism and to wage war on the evils of Fox News an

This seems like a great idea. However, I'd argue we do already have one institution that resembles the ideals of a PBS for the Internet: Wikipedia. Is any other institution not driven by a profit motive and also even a tenth as valuabl

If you read up about this, there are multiple very reliable sources for different attacks of this nature, in various locations, most not tied to Cuba in any way, going back quite a few years now. I especially recommend Marc Polymeropoulos a
