Nice site, I've been looking for something simple like that (It sure beat https://cc.dcsec.uni-hannover.de/ in niceness, the website I've used before to "check" my browser). Anyway I'm getting a nic

It isn't. Nobody (or at least me) is saying that. But static blogs have other benefits, like being lighter on your host or allowing you to create a new post by just editing a text file in your favorite markup language.

It's kinda scary how many microprocessor and different firmwares are needed/used in nowadays computer/hardware, and how each one of them add a new point of failure. I was reading just today a similar article, but involving HD

He could have easily hosted his blog + all the tools on a vps (which you would need for a dynamic site anyway). Then fixing a typo would be only a matter of SSH-ing into your server.

Sadly this doesn't always work. We have a similar system here in Italy (Telecom Italia own pretty much the whole phone network, and it's forced to rent it to other ISP, at a low price because it's considered a monopoly). Fine

I'd love to have it, integrated in the OS and by default as well. Something might be moving, as Google added "App Ops" [1] (hidden by default, but it's there) in Android 4.3, which allow you to revoke permissions from ap

You can't use 3g? It's plenty fast for internet browsing (Right now from my phone I get a ping in the range of 60/120ms, ~10mb down and ~1mb up). Or there are other problems?

Some accounts got charged after a free year, some got charged after a "trial" of many years, others get "gifted" a lifetime free service. I'm in the last group, but I know that people that had to pay for WhatsApp.

I guess they don't even know in which server it's hosted anymore. It's probably way less effort to just leave it here. It's not like it's using a lot of space, or requires some beefy performance anyway.
