It makes no sense at all to make feature requests in a review. Reviews are for other users to read. Feature requests should be sent to the developer.

When does this magical tipping point arrive?

The fact that Google has destroyed user trust is what gives Baidu an opening.

Are you claiming that people never die because of bad law or bad science?

That seems a little easy-going. Yes, it's good that an electic car is being tested alongside other cars, but it seems as though we have moved beyond that point. In particular Tesla is rightly showing no humility about their cars.

For one thing, traffic patterns, and the VPN endpoint would be a clue.

How can 'anyone have access to production technology' (which incidentally includes the education necessary to utilize it), if they have no income?

That assumes that Apple will be beholden to enterprises and forced to stop innovating the way Microsoft did. Given the enterprise market is much smaller than the consumer market, that isn't going to happen.

Are you claiming your comment is factual or not? I'm stating an opinion. Not facts. You seem to claim some kind of higher authority, and I'm calling you out for that. [edit: I see that rather than replying, you have dishonestly

Your comment is not factual. It's a cynical opinion. Does Marco hope that this will make you feel good about him and his app? That seems likely. Does he also want to support independent developers? That seems likely too. Not everyt

Why do you say the blackberry systems are likely to be replaced with device agnostic ones? Do you have some insider information? Also you seem to have missed the part where IBM state that they are going to develop more than 100 apps.

Nice phones, but with a vastly greater risk of malware and industrial espionage.

If Microsoft goes to zero revenue, their shareholders will have different uses for the cash. Long before that point it will be dismantled. [edit: downvotes, seriously? I'm just pointing out that Microsoft is not a private company tha

There is a distinction, but I think that primarily does imply that profit takes priority over ethical concerns, so I'd argue that in this case the distinction doesn't change the argument.

Being motivated 'purely by profit' means that you are deliberately acting without morals. That isn't an unintended consequence. It is an intended consequence of pretending you aren't responsible for your actions.

Seriously, how is this downvoted? It's a sincere question. I enjoyed looking at the site, and I loved the interface, but I didn't get any insight into the data. Can someone enlighten me?

This is an astonishingly beautiful website, and clearly shows the technical and design skill of Anand. However, I'm genuinely not sure what the purpose of this dashboard is other than as a résumé piece. What questions does it answer?

'Tron' as a suffix suggests electronic or mechanized.

Or maybe they might be able to solve more crimes if they arrested fewer people and used the resources for investigation.

If we're going by quotes from corporate websites, Comcast also supports the open internet, so none of us have anything to worry about.

The walled garden answer is strictly true, but moot in this case, since you could also use region monitoring to wake up your app, and that will use SSIDs indirectly.

Quoting Google's marketing just proves the point about their duplicity. How do you account for them joining with Verizon to lobby against network neutrality? A more restricted internet would benefit Google because they have huge cap

Google marketed themselves strongly as a promoter of the Open internet and gained credibility and support from the Tech community for this. They promoted it as one of their values. Now that it's commercially convenient for them they ha

If you say so, but from the outside this would be indistinguishable. Someone could attack with heavy artillery while shouting 'death to satan' because they like pretending to be a Satanist while not believing anything false. How
