This is my worst nightmare. I had a fairly recent being-trashed encounter and it was the worst month of my life. But thank god it was offline. Made me quite a bit more paranoid about photos, online accounts (closed all), etc. I can't imagin

The "they" we are talking about are AirBnb employeees, not some random people. It's no different than giving a copy of your passport to the bank teller - in theory they could also use your info for bad purposes, but it's much less likely th

I am a woman and I feel disadvantaged compared to men in two ways when it comes to family life: 1) TIME LIMITATION: I need to finish the child-having process by age 36 or so. I want to have a large family, so to have 5 kids, I should start

I don't buy this reasoning. Yes, if someone really wanted to get in, they could probably learn to pick locks. But that doesn't mean locks are useless - now we reduced the pool of potential criminals to people who 1) know to pick locks 2) ha

This is great. I have always thought that porn websites miss the mark both in 1) user friendliness and in 2) quality content. This at least fixes #1 and makes browsing a pleasant experience. Second step is to optimize the site for mobile, b

Totally agree. People are probably saying a lot of stuff in daily conversation that, if transcribed, could get them fired. Thanks to social media, these conversations stop happening between two people and include me on the other side of the
