At the same time, giving up a market will give another competitor a golden oppurtunity which could come to bite them. And countries could probably somehow force Google to continue operating Youtube there by threatning other Google products.

And two years later there has been zero development on this bombshell story which makes the story look even worse.

Naked shorts are already illegal, so if that happened Im pretty sure that they will all face severe repercussions. But the 140% short interest is very misleading and points to naked shorts even though the excessive short interest can explai

E.g. A lends a share to B, B sells to C, C lends to D. Now say another shorter, X, needs to cover their short and thus buys a share from C, now for this trade to settle C has to recall their share from D and then give it to X, who would th

The same director noted that the SI%, according to their way of calculating*, is actually at 55% (still very high). And like the poster below stated, one cannot really know the difference between a borrowed and "ordinary" stock .

I also believed that most of the shorts were naked, but the director of S3partner clearly explained how this was not the case. One stock can be shorted multiple times which is what causes the SI% to be over 100%. A lends to B, B sells to C

Yeah, I read my comment and thought about it, and I fully understand that those words are not acceptable but I feel like its not as severe and most of the time they are calling themselves gay and such, but I fully understand that it still i

This is some disgusting manipulation, and even worse is that hedge funds most likely shorted the stock even more knowing what the investor apps would do, and profited from this coordinated shutdown. That hedge funds were even allowed to sho

Ive been watching the community for atleast 4 years now, and for the most part it's is just random people that use options to gamble (i.e. wild shots at trying to make money but they do have some knowledge). Either way, while terms lik

"Newspeak" is calling compelled speech free speech. This law would, for example, force HN to host spam and unrelated content since it does not break polish law. And forcing an entity like HN to host and disseminate content it does

Trump is indeed the President - not a king nor a dictator. His powers are limited and in this case he cannot force a private enterprise to host his private, i.e. non official, statements/comments. Trump has a multitude of other venues

Claiming fraud without any evidence at all just because you lost is ridiculous. This is clearly a huge attack on democracy by Trump and his supporters/sycophants. Edit: How are the rioters even able to breach the security and allowed&#

Sure but even then, those groups could use these long-ranged and relatively cheap drones to deliver all those horrific weapons. Huge rockets and such is fortunately prohibitively expensive and hard to manage. Whereas drones compared to rock

Drones are integral to current warfare and will continue to become even more important. And as we've seen in the Caucuses, the nations with the most effective drones will easily conquer other countries without or with worse drones. Asi

Google Drive backups option for Whatsapp only applies to Androids with Google Play Services, and for IPhones Whatsapp's only cloud backup option is ICloud. This does not seem close to nefarious at all. NOTE, this is only about cloud b

I still cannot help but laugh at the intentional ignorance by a lot of people in the US right now. They have for some reason (we all know why) gotten the notion that Russia is some kind of innocent nation that does nothing at all and that U

Russia's hacking/software capabilities have always fascinated me. I might be out of the loop, but it very much feels like this "online cold-war" is very one-sided towards Russia, which is ridiculous given US capabilities

And you'll also need a seperate synchronization license to play the song with any visuals. Music rights are ridiculously convoluted.

Couldnt this simply be the result of push notification checking and similar things that are done in the background? I do think the total amount of data used is a bit much but this do not seem unreasonable at all.

What a great write up! Looks very promising. Right now, I'm wondering how everything will be priced, especially, the compute-time. Because if the price is low, you would be able to replace a lot of complicated servers with easier and m

Lawyer and employees cost money and directing them towards a small investment will only distract them from doing more important work. In other words, this could've ended with them losing even more money. Also lets not ignore the reputa

I love Cloudflare but at the same time its expansion just make me uneasy. So much of the internet is gathered under cloudflare, a single failure point. And issues like Cloudbleed definitely does not make it better.
