My solution is that if you want to join a public community, then you should only share information with that public community that you want to be public.

So don't do those things. It just doesn't make any sense to me how people expect that you can use a web service without the webservice like...knowing that you're using it? Reddit knows what subreddits I'm subbed to. Use

Give them your real name, and then lie about everything else. This is where all of the anti-facebook sentiment loses me. Just put fake data in there.

This is horrifying, and sounds like something out of a story warning about government overreach. 1 YEAR and three months in federal prison? That's not a short amount of time for something that this guy had a reasonable expectation was

Just to highlight the cost difference: I was just in a small city (Boise, actually!) for a work event. We rented a very nice house from airbnb for the stay. It was >4000 square feet. The master bedroom was probably 4-500 square feet it

No, the "bad influence" we all need is COLOR. I am so fed up with all of this meaningless "flat" design. It's awful. Our monitors are capable of making millions of colors. An icon can be more than white. This i
