The extradition is for Megaupload - as far as I know. My perception of him is based on all the crimes he committed. I was making a moral case - not a legal one.

Trust, inventory, and demand are not that easy to copy. Most people probably don’t want to check a dozen different sites (convenience) or don’t know which sites they can trust.

Not plausible. Just wishful thinking. How would that even work if superhosts are not accredited investors?

Why not use Ecosia instead? Same search results, same - if not better - privacy, and they use their ad revenue to plant trees.

I was not talking about Megaupload.

I stopped reading when the author put “unique visitors” from one tool next to “visits” from the other tool. Those are two completely different metrics that you cannot compare!

People seem to forget that Microsoft has an ad business. TikTok is a great addition to Bing. Not for consumers - but for advertisers.

Low quality? TikTok videos are much better (in terms of story arc and editing) than Videos on other social networks. And it takes one swipe to go to the next video. The repeated jokes are part of the TikTok culture. Pure copycats will norma

MSFT has an advertising business. TikTok Ads would be a nice addition to Bing Ads.

Is there any way to get my DNA analysed anonymously? Like, with just a throwaway email and payment via some service that anonymises?

Next week there will be complaints that food delivery services are no longer catering to certain areas. Instead of accepting that it is just not profitable for them, journalists will label it as backslash or an act of punishment. Same thing

„Messing up your competitors A/B test“ is not unheard of as a tactic in highly competitive ecommerce settings.

If they make the investment, it is more than just show. But I have my doubts about the end result of this endeavor as well.

They did not „already pay for it“. Think of the EU like a gym. Only because the gym bought a treadmill with your membership fees from last year, does not mean you get to keep access to that treadmill once you decide to terminate your gym me

This is especially true for writing! For coding, I have found it only works for me when I have some failing tests. And unfinished line of code with more than a trivial thing missing, might actually slow me down.

We should all learn and accept that VC funding and bootstrapping are not the only two options. Of course VC is bad for some founders and business models. That does not make it bad in general.

Works fine in Safari on an iPhone 7. Are you running any kind of ad or script blocking?

I am not aware of any official numbers. But security and basic compatibility should be covered for a few more years; based on how long previous versions continued to receive support/updates.

Why would a country need two domestic airlines? To keep one alive makes sense as a strategic asset. But two? Can just make the market more friendly to foreign airlines if more competition is needed/wanted.

The majority of users/voters in most countries do not want their governments to ban Facebook. Many countries had local alternatives that went out of business because users switched to Facebook.

Assuming best intentions, Facebook could use this data to better identify spammers, fake news networks, etc.

„Just ship it“ does not mean spending 9 months(!) building something that should have been a no-code MVP built in 2 weeks max.

There is a company in Germany that will do remote flu diagnostics via WhatsApp. They even send you the sick note for your employer via WhatsApp. Schools use it to communicate with parents.

The appeal of WhatsApp was free text messages, which is still not a thing in many countries. Plus free international text messages. That’s is how they grew to a billion users without being a success in either the USA or China.
