   Maybe you are reading too much into that line. The point is, im not giving them anything they dont already have access to. (If they are asking my social to verify my identity, they already know it to verify against.)

   Would you be mad if your bank offered to allow people to verify their identity with FB, or if they forced it. I dont see why the former bothers you, if you choose not to use that feature. I would not use FB to log into a bank because of th

   It's a tool right, and from a usability, stability, security, and functionality perspective its second to none. No other program (for me) works more seamlessly between desktop and mobile. It's messaging app is first class. Tons

   Exactly. FB has done some crappy things (changing default without clear communication of consequences being a major one http://mattmckeon.com/facebook-privacy/ ) that LEAD to CA being a problem. Im willing to bet 99%

   More like "the explicit fact laid out in the article is true, but its context, meaning, effect on the world, and interpretation are so sensationalized that the original fact becomes irrelevant to the narrative." EG back in the day

    I dont. I gave them the first two, and the third just speaks to how powerful their compute abilities are and how much money they have. I didnt say they were doing it.

    Because if you transfer too much money through them in a month they are required to verify your identity. Federal laws.

    They dont necessarily need an overall strategy between some of these units. What is the chance a Talari and Aconex integration is useful? They act more like a holding company or vc, who owns a bunch of individual businesses. Nobody crit

    Reasons I would use FB for sign in -facebook already as my bank account info -facebook already has my social security number -if facebook doesnt have that stuff, im sure they could buy it or brute force it in seconds. (they can brute force

    Are you really looking at their acquisitions? They own an SD-WAN company, NetSuite, a massive construction software business (Textura, Aconex, etc), a pretty massive marketing cloud to compete with Adobe and Salesforce. I think people who

    I dont think youre really factoring in natural disasters, displacement, refugees. 4 out of 5 people displaced are in Asia right now. Even right now, Miami is underwater, and we are pumping it back out. Florida, New York, and California wi

    Some of them all do one or a couple parts of what I described, but they are all designed to be "easy and simple" more than powerful. And I really doubt most of them do things like watch my credit card to keep track of how much ha

    umatrix takes care of a lot more than just this. I block cookies on any site I dont log into, and scripts on any site I dont need scripts. The granularity of easily enabling just the one script or cookie or frame I might need is great.
