This is complete conjecture, but one of the key reasons may be to cash-out the founders/employees. Companies don't usually cash out their own founders, but investors sure as hell have the right to buy the founder's shares if they want. If t

From a startup company's perspective (hiring a web developer): - Any effort you make to show interest in the company goes a long way. Use the software, come prepared to talk about what you did/didn't like, and have questions for me. Are you

Fraud is much less likely here than on PayPal, for example, for multiple reasons: a- Card present. Chances of fraud when the card is swiped are much lower than when it isn't (for obvious reasons). b- Signature. This lets you have a basic fo

You (supposedly) only move around when you're in certain sleep stages, and not others. When you're moving around, you're still asleep, but you're much more lightly asleep than when you're not moving around, so it's a much more optimal time

If you think that's bad karma, you clearly haven't dealt with lawyers much. This is about par for the course.

My favorite are customers that email in a problem, then email in again, then email in again... Then email in that "THEY'VE EMAILED THREE TIMES AND HAVEN'T GOTTEN A RESPONSE!". That, obviously, is quite worrying. So you investigate as to why

Here are a few issues that come to mind: - Nobody wants to be a sysadmin. Being a sysadmin sucks, and taking care of servers is hard. Sure, your content may disappear if the startup goes offline, but it will disappear if you have a hard

As long as the increase in sign-up rate is larger than the percentage of users who mistype their password, then it's a net win for the website.

Leah's asking the right questions, but I don't think the direction she took is the right one. Users rely on the UI to be familiar, and I've always found Amazon's UI strange in that I have to pause, analyze, and think when logging in/signing

You have to both mistype your password AND mistype your email for it to be a problem. The percent of users who do that is minimal, and if it happens, it's not the end of the world: create a new account.

I wouldn't be so afraid of Google being able to unilaterally effect change without consensus. Even getting adoption for their Chrome browser seems to be an extreme uphill battle.

Even so, the current certificate issuing process is lengthy and expensive. Requiring SSL would be a major hit to the mom-and-pop type websites that just want a simple webpage on their own domain for their business. They'd now have to pony u

There are other forms of risk mitigation that apply strictly to the rich, such as umbrella policies, media insurance policies, etc etc etc. I'm not familiar with very many of them, but they can often be costly. These are needs that the poor

As you become rich you have more to lose. My experience is that you tend to spend more money on risk mitigation (even though the percentage of income spent may be lower).

Not sure if this is what you meant or not, but while some of the discount comes from the TVM side of things, I'd venture to guess a much larger source of the discount comes from the fact that they have locked you in to a 6 month pass. If yo

In this hypothetical scenario, the person affected could take a few minutes to verify the information, and then report back to the host that the contact information is invalid.

Then the original DMCA notice (with fake contact information) is invalid and doesn't need to be followed.

I'm supporting a system that protects copyrights and that seems to work well, for the most part. It's not perfect, but better than not having it, in my opinion. Sounds like your issue is not with the DMCA, but with copyrights in general, wh

If the original notice doesn't have real contact information, it is invalid. Once pointed out that the notice is invalid, there is no reason and no liability in not following an invalid notice.

This email happens to include your full name, address, and other contact information. And it also certifies under penalty of perjury that you are telling the truth. If you don't believe that you can go to jail for 2-4 years in CA for comm

And how many times has the system worked as intended? Any system is going to have some false positive rate. If the logo/image you mentioned was owned by someone else, then it should be removed. It's not bullying, it's their rights, whethe
