In general? Yes, it's still socially frowned upon (ie. Taboo) and socially awkward to talk about your salary or someone you knows salary in Sweden.

Yes, you can even order complete records over your region where you see everyone's income tax as well as their capital gains tax in Sweden. As far as I know, there's no completely open lookup service on the Internet - all of them

If you are leaving a large asset (money, house, investments, a 500 foot yacht in the Bahamas you never told anyone about) then the person getting it should know before hand. Could you elaborate on why you should tell someone before

For sure. Well, I unblocked the site while reading, so I guess the scale tipped over to appreciation. Although, I'm skeptical about the Facebook/share buttons. It'd be great if they didn't load content from the sharing s

Do they really continue calling you out even if you're not checked in and have not checked in any luggage? I've heard (but have no sources or anything to back it up) that they ditch people without calling them out if they're

Your linked article says around 100k people live in those cramped quarters. Fair enough, that's roughly 1.3% of the population (7,234,800 as of 2014 estimate). In other words, there's plenty of people living in what you and me wou

So that means you'll open up world-wide account creation when you have some non-dutch content available? :-)

Does that mean you're opening up account creation for the US, when that content has come around? Or would I, as a Swede be able to create an account and read (and pay) for the US content? (I guess I'm asking about 1) Account creat

You mentioned you have plans for expanding internationally. Any comments on that? :-) (I like the idea and I wouldn't mind to pay for things I read that interests me, unbundled. So you'd be welcome to sign up some Swedish papers!)

One of the incentives is ironically, the ability to actually pay and get access to the content - regardless of price. If you're not in a prioritized market (Or maybe it's fairer to say "privileged market"?) - you can&#x2

Interesting! Could you elaborate some more and perhaps list a few projects, if you're allowed to?

Just to be crispy clear, did you report the incident to the police or to some other state agency as well? Or only to Rackspace?

I know plenty of people who host non-infringing copyright items at Megaupload. What I mean is that they share personal files, which themselves have the copyright to. So I'm pretty sure not all of that money comes from hosting Big Corpo

It's worth mentioning here, that since the money is effectively trapped in the mandatory Swedish Pension System (It's basically a locked US 401k with mandatory installments done through Pay As You Earn, ie. done automatically) the

Not to be snarky, but that's incorrect if the power is out for a few hours. Not saying that is a normal case in the "first world" - but it happens occasionally.

I upvoted each person who said they donated or had something else that contributes to the thread. I reason that saying that you donated and perhaps how much, is in fact a good thread contribution. At least this time, I'll take this on

Well, I certainly don't think you're a bad person for that - considering this forum is generally focused towards the technical angle of things. For some reason, I thought I was clicking through to another Five Eyes/NSA, GCHQ,

It might be worth mentioning somewhere that the site/project is focused on the United States. Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the impression I get when I look through the projects and filtering options. It'd be nice

It adds a "something you know" (password, PIN/Password to your token generator) factor to the "something I have" (The card, with numbers on front and back) factor, so I would say it's fair to call it two-factor
