This article is a little outdated already. It seems that a mandate has been established for federal workers, contractors, and health care professionals that work somewhere that is federally funded. The ability to choose frequent testing ins

I actually see a very clear distinction between the two sentences. A clear reasoning is much more than just a reference to an old court case. The entire point of the Howey Test is that it's applied specifically to each situation in whi

I think the sad reality is that the only way to have some sort of power and support against a megacorporation is by showing a controversy to the public. I don't know how many threads I've read about people just being locked out of

Her personal beliefs aren't something that changes how Apple handled this situation. Edit: I'm not arguing that she hasn't made the situation worse, I'm only arguing that her behavior doesn't excuse Apple's.

I haven't had a bad experience with the Samsung evo select line, which is a made for Amazon brand. If you buy it new, sold and shipped by Amazon, you won't run into counterfeit issues. In person stores also do price matching with

The common sentiment in the US is that Mega Corporations have government influence that they shouldn't, not the other way around. Wikileaks was seen as a national security threat because it leaked files in an unredacted form. Wikileaks

From what I've read about the other cloud providers, they make it easy to report matches to NCMEC but I haven't seen anything about a human review as a middle step. I really only know of PhotoDNA which it seems like Apple essentia

I honestly believe that's not Apple's place. Apple is a technology company, not a non-profit founded to help find missing or abused children. NCMEC has a pretty good and non-controversial reputation and you really only heard about

It does seem like an oxymoron at a superficial level, but if you look into freedom of speech, there's an implicit assumption that the speech isn't inciting violence or harm. I can have any opinion I want about any other person and

I know there's going to be some debate about this response but I genuinely think Instagram plays that role in my life. I don't really have the type of friends that do a lot of reposting, but even those that do in the name of activ

I don't think delusion is the best word for it. Delusion implies that the vision of people in leadership roles are unrealistic in some way. I think resiliently optimistic is probably a better term. I don't think most people are mo

This study isn't about the relationship in both directions. It's only really saying that lonely people might have a implicitly better understanding on the bigger trends that will face society. A total of six studies were examined.

I think the understanding is that US so far hasn't pushed into law any policy instructing companies like Apple to publicly censor people. Secret surveillance and privacy has been debated, but not freedom of speech. The US has not used
