it's funny you say that, considering HN is a breeding ground for shady marketing techniques. The most common kind here seem to be these generic "how to" articles that briefly mention some obscure product as an essential part

My major problem with the PRISM debacle was less that the NSA stores and analyzes Internet traffic (although it's perfectly reasonable to be upset about it) and more that they were doing it secretively (mixed with some disgust at how m

So, because her former employer gives her certain benefits, she's not entitled to feel bitter? That logic reminds me of people who think that presents 'make up' for abuse and/or neglect.

You're misunderstanding the crux of the issue. Think of the NSA as a man in the middle. Every signal you send is allegedly stored for later processing. At that point, it doesn't matter how many layers you have encapsulating your d

Since I know the skill gap on HN is pretty wide, I just wanted to chime in to say that if this is some kind of counter-intelligence measure, it's not really going to work considering that the US government is collecting information at
