At first I wanted to dismiss this as empty corporate posturing. Which I am not going to entirely dismiss. But then I paused because this wasn't an Apple PR announcement, but from the CEO himself, and one of the things I've found i

Does anyone else feel like this motion to censor political figures on social media as a result of what they said seems to have suddenly become a big issue real quickly. Until last week President Trump would say whatever things he would say

Also I'd be suprise if they don't have a copy or at least acess to all of the maj root certs and websites. Iean sure maybe Facebook or Apple or AWS takes a stand against the govt. Saying "No you can't have our data"

The problem with your response if you've fundementally divided the world into the fearless, social justice serving left and the corrupt, evil, fascist, right. It can be assumed that the far right is not going to change their mind at an

There is a worse side effect that comes from conservatives feeling that they have been silenced, as people feel like they have less and less say in a political process they are more and more likely to start employing means outside of it. Th

So many people point out that DDG isn't being explicit with what they do in their billboards whilst also referencing that they know what it is but others probably don't. I think this is intentional, I'd wager a pretty penny t
