This is how it should be done, ideally. Facebook and similar services behave unilaterally, changing their agreements at will while keeping them dense and obscure, and intentionally make it impossible to communicate with them. Therefore, it&

Apple needs to remove each of these requirements. None of them serve any justifiable purpose, they only immorally and antisocially serve Apple's avarice.

You've failed to understand my point, which is that this is likely state sponsored harassment. I only mentioned gamergate as an example of pointless trolling, which this incident might not be.

Don't be too quick to dismiss this harassment as part of the gamergate-style nonsense that has been going on as of late. This type of thing is typical of the frat boy intelligence community. It's considered the height of their tra

The heavy spin is necessary to preserve the image that Uber represents the drivers. Uber really just provides technical infrastructure and marketing, and rakes off most of the profit. Almost all of that wealth should be flowing back to the

How did these criminals penetrate the ISP? Is there security footage? It should be no trouble to identify the perpetrators and have them arrested if their pictures are posted online.

The FBI SHOULDN'T be able to wiretap calls though. That was an important feature, not a bug.

You won't be able to dislike Mark Zuckerburg though. Presumably, they'll charge advertisers for the privilege of not being able to be disliked.

These people need to be stopped. Moneyed interests have no business conspiring with the government in private to tinker with the laws to increase their profits. That's all this is.

It's not possible that it violated the DMCA because it would be fair use to copy legally purchased audio files to an iPod, regardless of vendor.

This is why we need Aaron Swartz. This is why we need RMS.

It belies the attitude of the typical intelligence official that they believe an education is something that is finished and then you learn no more.

I wonder if CIA personnel are actually forbidden from reading or possessing some of the Snowdrn related books. If they contained any leaked classified material, that would be a violation for anyone possessing a security clearance.

Nothing in your personal anecdote addresses the existence or nonexistance of white privilege.

Haha, why would anyone ever agree to an unfunded non-compete clause? If you're required not to work for 18 months, you need to be paid for 18 months. Any of you who accept an unfunded non-compete clause are suckers and any of you who t

They are contractually obligated to display that banner. It has nothing to do with Asus's actual products.

I hope the leaker is safe - the article doesn't say an arrest was made.

Patently false claim. The DVI standard always included dual-link, even before Apple added USB and power connections, changed the connector, and passed it off as a unique invention of theirs.

Remember when the intelligence community produced useful work, instead of playing with armed drones and spying on kids' cell phone nudes?

I'm interested in point 2, can you clarify how and why Linux in-kernel virtual memory is crippled or provide a link?

Important questions that should be put to Apple and Google loudly and frequently: Why don't we have baseband transparency to know what our phones are connected to? Why don't we have baseband firewalls?

Bloggings like these come up semi-regularly, and I sometimes wonder if they're just designed to troll people into deleting all the apps from their phone.

My heart goes out to these upstanding financial institutions and their shareholders, and I pray that they don't lose too much money compensating their customers for any losses resulting from these attacks.

Imgur is of little consequence. When it becomes too annoying to use it will no doubt be replaced. "This is the sixth time we have destroyed Zion and we have become exceedingly efficient at it."

This seems out of place and disrespectful. Would Apple have asked Robin Williams to do this ad a month ago when he was still alive? Would Williams have agreed? How much is the Williams estate being compensated for this?
