While I disagree with some of the details with your approach, I think this is a great Idea. It really has gotten my mind racing with different solutions for the problems such a system presents. I signed up and will definitely keep an eye on

If I'm supposed to let them sell my privacy and attention, I wouldn't really call it free. Money isn't the only thing of value I can give to a website.

This post is telling me to take a pledge to subscribe without telling me what I'm suppposed to be getting. How about we clarify that first and then I decide if this glorified blogging platform is worth it. And to the point made in the

If you want a user to agree to something, you ask them if they agree to it and below that have two radio buttons labeled "Yes, I agree", or "No, I don't agree". Neither of them should be selected by default. You do

That's a great perspective. Breach of contract would be the upper bound. I don't think ToS should be able to be enforced either because it is unreasonable in today's society to assume checking that box in a sign-up process is

This thread is like every thread on suckless software ever. >This software, which specifically states that it caters to a niche, doesn't cater to my needs. I'm not going to consider thought that I might not be part of the niche

It is absolutely that as well. But if this is the direction we are headed in, lets at least make sure as much of the money goes to the workers as possible.

I've been looking for something like this. Not because of Trump but because I strongly oppose the "sharing economy" that is explotative of workers, circumventing legitimate market regulation and reaping profits in a centraliz

Copyright infringement has as much in common with stealing as it does with sharing. Both of them are ideological terms to paint the action in a certain light and neither give a complete picture.

They weren't arguing from a legal, but from an ethics point of view.

Stripe finally got giropay and sepa-debit. I'm still trying to find a good european alternative in case I start selling things online but it's getting harder and harder to find any company that comes close in terms of quality.

Kill TTIP next please. The politicians here won't do it for some reason, ignoring the overwhelming opposition from the public.

Now the people who I don't agree with will have my data!!! It's not like people have argued the potential for a change in government as one of the reasons mass surveilance is bad, even if you happen to trust the current government

I've recently been thinking about xmpp making for a great federated identity provider for multiplayer video games. With communication already built in, initialization of peer-to-peer sessions already a common use-case, and the right XE

This looks great. I've often thought the biggest issue holding back xmpp adoption is the lack of web clients. I'm convinced e-mail would be dead if it wasn't for webmail clients. People will eventually graduate to a native cl

What is an immensly popular device? "The iPhone"? Because they come out with new devices called that pretty regularly. And if you consider them all to be the same device you don't get to compare them to just one model of an a

This is a part of the unix philosphy I often forget, but agree with just as much as the rest. As an example: I love curl for piping the data to stdout per default, but I'm frequently annoyed by the progress bars I didn't ask for,
