For me, it was because a year ago there was only one source for this info, and it was a somewhat dubious one (Vice). I assumed after the initial report that what CA did was more in line with Obama’s tactics, which were more benign and stand

At least on iOS, you can get around this by copying/pasting the photo instead of using the sharing UI.

Isn’t the most likely scenario here that another large media conglomerate (i.e. Sinclair Media, CBS, etc) buys their assets and makes the media landscape even more consolidated? I hope not, but don’t have much faith here.

It sends the first 5 characters of the SHA-1 hash to the API, which seems reasonable. To be safe, you could check after rotating all your passwords, or I suppose you could download the raw data yourself to check directly. And the API is con

This is a fallacy. No one person can solve income inequality, nor should they be required to play by different rules just because they support changes which would enable it. It’s just like when people say “if you think taxes should be highe

It doesn’t have to be all or nothing. A little tact on the behalf of Facebook’s designers can save people a ton of unneeded frustration, even if it’s technically true that the info is public for people who want to do a thorough search. Just

This hasn’t been true for at least a year. There is zero difference in ad revenue for HTTP vs HTTPS now. Join any major online community for publishers and ask anyone if you don’t believe me.

I’d assume that they occasionally send requests with different IPs and user-agents to detect cloaking.

Well, that’s no longer an easy fix now that Apple removed the home button and uses that area for gestures that replace it.

This approach only stops the most basic and laziest scrapers. Some people have tens of thousands of diverse IP addressed to utilize for scraping. Many of them will not give a shit about your bandwidth or server constraints and will cause yo

Is outrage not the way that almost anything moves forward these days? I feel that if not for the internet (the modern version where anyone has the ability to publish something that can be seen by many, regardless of tech knowledge) that w

Wow, thanks for mentioning this. My Mac has been freezing when opening tons of apps lately, making it basically useless, and I couldn’t figure out what was wrong until I checked this. I never would have guessed it was a core OS issue. What

FWIW, American Apparel products are no longer made in the US, despite being on this list. You can easily confirm this by looking at the details in their online shop and seeing “imported”.

You can pick the party which most closely represents your interests and then work to change the party from the inside. I also wish that the US was structured to allow more parties to thrive, but we are not helpless.

If we only made decisions based on whether we could absolutely be sure of something with 100% certainty, we would all be paralyzed. Until a fully open-source phone is released that is comparable in quality to an iPhone, we can look at all o

There is absolutely no excuse for a car to hit a pedestrian in or at the end of a crosswalk, regardless of “signaling”. The car should be driving slow enough to make this impossible, and for the worst-case scenario to be the pedestrian walk
