Very interesting reading the obstacles faced by the black market drug trade and how they're overcoming them. It seems like the producer layer is most susceptible to penetration as it is essentially identical to most gangs. It's en

Quite frankly not having a smart phone in 2019 is becoming not having a computer in 2000. Yes you can live just fine without it but you're the exception not the rule.

Problem is that most people want to have reactions, replies in chains etc. I personally quite like IRC but I understand why people are less keen. It's not the way of the majority. Probably not the way of the entire center of the bell c

I know this is old but I'm catching up: Note that with Equifax you never signed any sort of permission or ToS for the data collected, so they'd be hit with a fine regardless. Many companies collect data on people without a contrac

He's saying that it's not about difficulty it's about the value of the output. There are many difficult things that are worthless in value. You could be the greatest deep sea underwater basket weaver, that doesn't make y

Young people are less likely to vote but far, far more likely to know about Net Neutrality. I think it's a shrewd strategy: it will get more young people out, who tend to vote Democrat.

Come now, on a tech and hacking website of all places we should all be better informed than this. There is a voice activation only chip tied directly into the lights that only listens for commands. Once the activation is heard it sends it o

Fine grained permissions do exist, your phone is simply not being updated to that version. You can update permissions on types of notifications, location, storage, contacts etc. all independently of each other. O is great for that and I ass

And if instead of email I was interested in just a RSS feed? An email is expensive to me. It seeks me out instead of the other way around.

The article you linked says nothing of the sort, nor is it ever even really hinted at that the average age is 9... Which is quite difficult to believe without a lot of proof to contradict every bit of anecdotal evidence to the contrary. I&#

My wife and I both have accounts. Tickets in Seattle are usually 12-15 each, so if we use it once a month we're breaking even. I'm very disappointed in this decision but I kinda didn't figure they'd last very long if the

The end game goal of Eth is to become the main way to process transactions globally, overtaking Visa et al. Not only are cryptos still used for transactions (the dark web marketplaces are still used after all) but they have ambitious goals

Google is competing with Apple for mobile phone market share. Apple kicks their ass at messaging but RCS could help narrow the gap.

The whole issue with facebook is that they: 1. Follow you from site to site, scooping up all the data they can on you. 2. Allowed all of that data to be accessible not just by you opening up to a bad actor app, but by any of your friends op

Inasmuch as IM is monetized I think it's a front. It's another aspect or facet of social media and we're already making the distinction between microblogging (Twitter Vs Facebook) and photo sharing (snapchat Vs Insta) so I do

See this is why I don't do stuff like decentralized Reddit. What I proposed was my first idea but this is much better.
