What kind of identity confirmation? What stops these people from buying stolen verified accounts for a few dollars?

What would you expect a company like Skype to be able to do? They're not exactly in a position to implement very strong KYC measures.

So you're essentially bragging about how you're kind of a big deal and above the local cops? Am I misinterpreting your comment?

Tesla isn't the only one making poor tire choices, the BMW G12 came with awful noisy all season run-flats. At least they were rated for appropriate speeds though. Given that Tesla isn't even trying to make nice cars the bad tires

If we're talking about the price, you're right. But if we're talking about actually sitting in the car, Tesla is definitely in Honda/Toyota territory.

Dunno, at Autobahn speeds (~155mph) both the 3 and S seemed way noisier than a 3L straight-six BMW 7er. Tons of road noise, tons of wind noise. Although the Teslas had worse tires on them.

Weird, I'd imagine the ubiquitous and insanely cheap pole fiber would be a much bigger problem for WISPs in Romania than the corruption. Seems like it would be very hard to make a profit unless you can find hundreds of customers close

Might this not deter someone violating the code from contacting the fire department in a timely manner in an emergency?

An NDA is always involved. And even if not, badmouthing your customers is bad business.

Pretty shitty of HackerOne to forbid the disclosure of a non-vulnerability. Hopefully there's more to this story.

Hydro power is nice and all, but monetizing that requires strictly different resources than monetizing hackers. Perhaps hydro power can be valuable, but that will not make hacking any less valuable.

I can think of at least a couple of people that "retired" with far too little stolen money in exactly the kind of places where you'd get recruited from by NK & Co. Nobody ever discusses this publicly, but I feel like ever

I don't see how the opportunity cost of hacking could ever exceed that of mining crypto.

What about just me? I'm not a member of the press. Should I not have the power to shame businesses into excluding individuals and organizations? Perhaps they're doing something they should be ashamed of.
