I would believe this is way more complicated, even if set the profit apart. Arguably having access to technology is important for the regular citizen, even under less democratic countries. There is the privacy angle, and also if you have an

I was tempted for a moment to agree. Maybe for the flight companies and airports it could be true. But since many of those measures became law, then it is a political problem. It would bring bad reputation to any politician trying to remove

If the actual goal is to keep it "rural" or "greener" etc, living small, as long as they don't demand anything extra, as long as the outside is kept as it was meant to be, why go as far as punish the person? Sometim

Ok. Feels weird to me to renovate a place they don't own at all, so I expected the person to own it. It is fair to follow more rules if you rent someone elses or city land. On the other hand, if you still keep the tiny home low cost, e

You really can only "own" things you have full control. So, ok, if it is rented, I do se why it would have tighter rules. I don't have an issue with that. Still strange to "rent permanently" and still need to follow

The issue I take with laws are that laws are usually slower to change, and even changing areas from one designated type to another. As you can see, the land and real state market changes. Things used to be accessible, today many people flee

Would be better if the title here at hacker news mentioned the post is largely about analyzing the filing against Facebook. Maybe "Regulators and Reality - FCC against Facebook analysis"

I am curious why the government would need to punish people because they are living as they wish, in land they bought and own. I mean, it is 100% fair to say a region will never get some types of utilities, or postal service, as it is part

I don't have any proof or study on it, but I suspect they don't do it. My anecdotal evidence is that I use an application firewall and Firefox by itself pings only telemetry.mozila.org or accounts.mozilla.org and stuff like that.

The UX discussion is not directly related to the technical discussion. Apple has its own history and more than one mode is supported. Feels to me somewhat of a legacy problem. That said, their stability and flexibility is unmatched. Windows

A lot of people think of VPN as escaping Google mega-giga-tracking schemes. So growing their own would be doomed to fail.

The article has a few brilliant ideas, for sure. In particular asking if the time was well spent. This can be truly valuable and it makes sense inside the "screen time" feature apple already provides. Including the score in the ap

Potential abuse is not a reason for not doing this feature. Bad actors will be bad in the current system or the new one. A couple of years ago: Allow all or no notifications, hard to find settings to turn off Current: Allow all, but easy to

Bitcoin strength and value is on decentralization. If you increase the block size, it will be seized by governments or large corporations. This has long being debated, and the reason it is like it is today, is that everyone really vested in

It is a network effect. Because people buy and use AirTags, they turn on their FindMy, which in turn benefits you when you want someone to find your own iPhone. Everyone interested in finding their lost or stolen iPhone already turned it on

True. Why not though? It really depends on your software choices. Security might be one. But with just writing to S3 you get to have the JSON stored as sent, and might be easier to write tests against, since in dev you can write the same JS

It really depends on what you are doing. Even though I have a similar setup, we are still outsourcing customer support with a third party for now. But when you do need the data from emails, I would expect this solution to be a better choice
