It's the DRM argument - publishers don't stop using Denuvo because someone always manages to crack it, they use it to stop little Timmy from copying Assassins Creed 27 on to a USB drive for his friend Dave. In the same way, Office

I'm not sure you're a very fun coworker - also, using anger/taboo to cover for lax security seems a teeny bit toxic.

I've recently been driving a policy at my workplace that if you find a PC unlocked, you send out an email blast promising donuts (also copying in the victim). The victim then has a choice: admit to a security breach and have to sit thr

Perhaps, but relying on best current knowledge that is backed by evidence is a pretty good policy. It may not always be correct, but it's a whole lot better than blind conjecture. Even if it's a guess made by the most educated guy

Even if they didn't revoke his access, he'd be smart enough not to access their systems and leave audit logs, thus leaving a window open to be sued/prosecuted for exfiltrating trade secrets and proprietary IP (even if he didn

You're contriving a situation as a gotcha instead of acknowledging the spirit of the question. The legal test of piracy in media consumption, I presume, is intentional action to contravene copyright, not passive consumption of media.

uBlock is a static blocker, afaik. If a URI doesn't appear on a list currently loaded, it's not blocked. This can allow unknown and dynamic-URI trackers to follow you across many sites. Privacy Badger looks for resources that appe

My opinion: the US strives to make their warrior class one of some sort of privilege, or at least appearing to have privilege. They have had various amounts of success in doing so. Thank you for your service, here's your veteran discou

I don't think it answers the question - I bought a Windows laptop because it's more affordable, but I'd rather be driving a Mac, hardware-wise. Does the same concept not apply to you and your car, or others who have chosen a

It's a holdover from before reactive styling was really a thing - there was a stage, if you recall, where people were maintaining two versions of their websites, one being for mobile. It was awful, and mobile user agents were bombarded

Solitary confinement is a torture, and should never be used, even for the most reprehensible of people. You may mean that they be physically sequestered from other people if they're dangerous, which death row inmates often are, but no

Forgive me here, I'm not close to the topic - if the latter is true, why is that anti-semitic? It feel the premise may be anti-Israeli, but I think it would be mistaken to conflate being Isreali with being Jewish. I'm sure there&#

I'm assuming you work for Postman. I hope you know that because of this, as well as the account requirement, other REST tools are going to eat your lunch. I don't think this was a good move.
