There would be a market for a DNS provider to provide a PKEY setup for the user to blacklist ad domains or whatnot similar to what the pi-hole does. There is always a technical solution, that's the beauty of it :)

The claims of him being a russian asset and the the links to washingtonpost and nytimes as credible sources in this thread is hilarious. I thought hacker news was more rational and logical than my twitter feed - maybe not. Assange and WL is

Ugh, I've been using right-click > copy image address pretty habitually everywhere else. Guess I gotta get in the habit of doing it with google images now too. Idiotic change, isn't bureaucracy great.

I find the sweeping generalizing of groups that people are directing their hate towards to be incredibly toxic. The Boston protests (for example) were purely about Free Speech: http://i.imgur.com/abhmjW8.png Yet thousands o

I disagree with you, but I'll keep it short. The author is injecting their own narrative into the words of her colleagues and is already assuming intent as malicious. The whole racism/sexism view-point comes from a misunderstandin
