They collect biometric data (selfie) plus a copy of your drivers license? That's a big part of KYC/AML. That's a huge difference from address, email, CC number.

Thank you for pointing this out. Everytime I bring up the "phone free" thing, everyone keeps jumping on and saying "well i don't like people filming". The situation that you mentioned is exactly how I do that and wh

The artists have made it harder. They've pushed for aggressive one sided fan behavior policies (phone less), they've increased aggressively with the prices, the quality has gone down with many established bands, pushed large shows

Big tech has been trying to stifle activism that doesn't help it's bottom line for a long time now. I'm curious to hear where are our crypto activists, robotics, and privacy activists that we used to have. The 3 laws of robot

Hopefully the Thai talked some sense into him. For the people who aren't aware: This guy went around harassing people on the subway saying Hiroshima, Nagasaki in a taunting way. This was some of his content. Eventually he got picked u

They're pretty terrible when they do. For the longest time the max password size was 8 characters and the csr knew what your password was. Heck I've had Chase security tell me they'd call me back.. dude that's exactly ho

This is exciting stuff. It's amazing how Amazon s domination and lack of business interest in improving the product killed off the e-reader in the us. Go to China or Japan and these things are numerous and still being sold/develop

Netscape/Mozilla was shooting for xuis which I think would have been pretty cool. Shame it never took off.

They're also firing people for fun. I know of a guy who is deep in the weeds upgrading their scala libraries that just got laid off within the week. (You have to do that to stay on top of all of the cves)

Holy crap "20$ not unreasonable for data in India" That's a hard no. That's highway robbery. 2gb/day for a month with international calling was $8 with jio

It's a little hard to get there. You either have to get to Temco, or Validiva and then get to Conaripe by bus. Also, there are seasons for it. I went to Validiva and got lucky with a 2hr uber ride.
