This will be a huge problem for people on the ground reporting on news events like protests/riots. Often, people in the crowd are using portable bluetooth speakers and playing commercial music. There are FB accounts (and youtube, twitc

"Predictive policing" using Palantir in US cities didn't raise big red alarm bells years ago? I kind of think this story is tame compared to what they've been up to. https://www.theverge.com/2018/2&#

I think the problem is the select enforcement of the ever-changing rules and not applying them equally across the board, which is getting blatantly obvious on twitter, reddit, etc. There are hundreds of examples, probably more, of tweets pr

Ah yes, those "nasty" emails saying they can cut my service that I've been receiving weekly for about over 10 years now. They have your browsing history too, you know. It's not like you're not leaving a trail watchi

Facebook deletes posts with that name in it as well. You're not allowed, even if the name appears in "main steam" press. https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2019/11/11/face-n11.html

I've thought about this too. A lot of businesses will come back to the US from China. They'll likely be building new state of the art plants. Automation tech has become quite abundant in the recent years. I mean, hobbyists are mak

They came to the schools in Portland, OR, as well and did the same blowtorch demo. Loved it. Came to find out just a few years ago that my aunt, who is retired from NSA/CIA/Rand, was one of the people who translated the Soviet shu

It was real, and we get to deal with it again in 18 years. Without a great deal of thought, I'm wondering why we didn't address both at the same time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Year_2038_problem
