I couldn't finish the article because I found the examples too disturbing. Just a warning for those of you who aren't very familiar with online porn. Could someone give me a summary of the article?

If cageface's data is accurate, the expense of the software would not explain the sudden drop. Do music producers suddenly get poorer after a crack is released?

I doubt it. Steve Gibson once related how he sold many copies of his software on his website, even when the website accidentally had an invalid certificate. His software is geared towards a tech-savvy audience. If tech-savvy people don't be

Yes, Persona does reveal your email address to the website you log in to. This is considered a feature, because: 1. It prevents lock-in to Persona. (If you want to migrate away from Persona, you can just send the users an email and introduc

1. You're comparing Persona to an imaginary world where most websites don't rely on email providers to prove authentication. I'm comparing Persona with the actual situation where people use the same password everywhere. Persona isn't perfec

One of the ways crackers gain access to a user's email is by guessing their password, a simple task when a huge number of users use the same password everywhere. With Persona, only your email provider (and the persona.org fallback) have you

There's an hour long video discussing the measures taken to protect the user's privacy, given by Ben Adida, one of the developers. It's 12 months old, but I believe the protocol hasn't changed enough to make the information out of date. ht

What tax would charge you $1400 a month if you're earning less than that? I'm very unfamiliar with the American system for student loans, but your comment sounds very different to the examples the article provided.

No. They're offering you the games at whatever price you can afford, you're allowed to take them up on their generosity! If I were you, I'd pay the minimum $0.01, use the torrents to minimize their costs, and increase the amount you're payi

Sure they can. They should do what the W3C wants them to do. But for some reason, in this case, they don't. It makes me want to cry in frustration. DNT was on very shaky grounds to begin with, this just makes things worse.
