My brother is 19, he basically only uses Instagram and Snapchat. He even uses Snapchat as his primary messaging app, which is infuriating.

I don't have access to the full article, but > lowering the rate to 7.25% > repaying his $600,000 in student loans at a rate of 4% These two things don't jive. Did he have the option of a loan at 4% at some point?

I'm not making any assumptions about anything, and I'm not attacking any company. I'm addressing the point that jamra made above, which is a general commenting stating that publishing a list of addresses is harmless because a

mTurkers get to pick and choose which hits they want to work on. They see a list of available hits, and each has a title, description, submitter, estimated time, and reward. The submitter matters to mTurkers because this allows them to see

I've mentioned this in a few places but it seems to be ignored: The account that posts the addresses is assosciated with some company. If that company isn't just 'Generic Consulting Company' then there is some context de

That information wouldn't be directly included, but some account has to post the hit. That account is either associated with some company or some person who works for some company.

You would still use mTurk to recruit participants, so you still benefit from their filters for acceptance rate etc. You would just implement the survey (probably with some attention checks to weed out people who just randomly answer questio

In the case of a list of addresses, just knowing the company or person associated with the Mturk task could be enough context to reveal information about the person(s) living at that address.

This doesn't have to be the case. For example, if you're paying mturk workers to fill out a survey you can give them a link to some third party (ie: Qualtrics) which will generate a code upon survey completion which the mturker en

I haven't stated that I think it's a good idea. You've stated that you believe the government (presumably) should intervene and not allow retailers to have their own brands, I'm simply asking you to explain your position

Basically every retailer has a 'house brand' of products that are manufactured by some third party. This isn't new or unique. Why do you think this is bad?

I don't feel the need to purchase every book I read just so it can sit on a shelf in my house when I'm done. So I use the public library unless it's a new release that I want to read right away.
