The issue is monopolies. Whether it is private or public, a monopoly will always provide shit service.

Asset seizure laws give them ample for-profit mechanisms, and you'd better believe that the municipal police department is going to ask the municipal ISP for a list of citizens connecting to TOR nodes for their no-knock probable-cause

Have you ever had an interaction with American police? You don't think the city police department will have a dedicated employee in that municipal ISP office that's checking which residents are connecting to TOR nodes?

That is an assumption based on no evidence.

What about from a privacy perspective? This is essentially a government run internet connection to your home.

Same in India. In fact, public officials are paid very little with the expectation that they will supplement their income with bribes. It's just absolutely normal to get literally anything done with a government office in almost any n

This is not my experience. I've seen a lot of borderline cases where the doctors don't really know if there's a minor fracture or if it's just a partially torn ligament. Typically these are hairline fractures, but it&#

Humans are far more likely to break bones than pets - so I agree that it's almost never worth it to get a pet xray. For humans though, as someone who's worked in a hospital, xrays are extremely useful. We see lots of broken bones

You aren't really paying for computing power and storage - you are paying for power/network/facility/server redundancy and availability. We host out own servers, and the bulk of the time is ensuring that the power doesn&

You're missing the point. There are a myriad of reasons for the non-disclosure - some you agree with and some you don't. The point is that lawyers include it as a standard in nearly all kinds of agreements. ...it's not eve

MS is keeping the details intentionally vague, so it's unlikely we'll ever know the scope of the breach and data exfiltration.

This is an overly-cynical take. As any lawyer can confirm, settlements almost ALWAYS contain non-disclosure clauses. The reason is that they cost the plaintiff nothing to sign, and provide the defendant with a limitation of any knock-on l

It's complicated. Very often the jury awards are subsequently slashed by appeals courts, so it's highly unlikely that the mother in the case you mentioned ever received $38MM. It's also important to note, for OP, that non-di

My guess is that they did not leak Windows and Office source code because they want to mine it for 0days themselves. Time to really lock things down folks.

These costs are always misrepresented, even here on HN where people should know better. Incremental costs on a sunny day do not represent the true cost of a renewable system. They never include massive battery costs, and are never designed

I'm not sure how effective DDoS attacks are. I'd rather support groups like those in Belarus that are thwarting the rail system from transporting Russian armor to the Ukrainian border.

Blocking a road is actually much worse. Emergency medical services use roads.

I think "mature" is the more correct term. It's not the regulation, it's just that it's been vetted and repeated so many times that it has become rock solid. This is why I never select cutting edge tech for our com

If you look at a changing map of the Eastern Roman Empire over time, like the Western Roman Empire, it "collapsed" well before it fell. Many educated elites from Rome moved to Constantinople a century before Rome fell. ...and simi

They are also getting fresh soldiers. I saw a claim from a Canadian vet in Kyiv that 40,000 foreign fighters were already in Kyiv. The Canadian was part of a 500-man exclusively Canadian urban battalion. There was also a report on BBC tha

Iraq was a dictatorship with a murderer at the head. Ukraine is a democracy. HUGE difference.
