Yeah, nobody sells dumps+pin for $25. This just doesn’t happen.

Yes, that claim was repeated by many. Doesn’t make it true.

Are you saying that the sentencing guidelines changed during the trial? Suggesting that Swartz was threatened with a 35-year sentence requires some extraordinary mental gymnastics.

> There are copious news reports from the time that state the charges filed against him carried those maximum penalties Yes, and those reports fail to accurately communicate the possible range of punishments that Swartz could’ve received

> Swartz was threatened with up to 35 years and then more charges were added bringing the potential up to 50 years This never happened.

This only makes sense as far as resource usage goes, Turing completeness has nothing to do with access to APIs which you really need to do anything interesting. Brainfuck is turing complete but can’t call any APIs, you can very much predict

Incorrect, localbitcoins only requires KYC for their escrow feature. Most people do not use the useless escrow feature.

Emma Best isn’t being very clear here. In her tweet she very clearly disagrees with Zeynep Tufekcis claims, but for whatever reason the blog is more forgiving. In any case it’s quite clear that Zeynep wasn’t correct when she claimed that WL

FWIW Zeynep isn’t concerned with accuracy either, WL did not dump private info of almost every woman in Turkey. This is simply a strange misattribution, the dump came via Emma Best of DDoSecrets, http://web.archive.org/web&#

Do you actually feel that there is an interesting conversation to be had about this? I doubt it. If you don’t want sites to set cookies, don’t let them.

And they do, if you want play store or huawei store instead of apple app store you can just get an android phone. Nobody is forced to buy an iPhone, there is no monopoly at play here.

What protects the Starbucks employee from getting sued besides their lack of assets?

Why should you need to do any adjustment? Web browsers allow such requests by default.
685.
by ryanlol 6y ago
I don’t see the problem here, just have reasonable defaults. (e.g. port 80,443, perhaps deny private networks by default)

I have a hard time understanding why network access would be so annoying and difficult. It should be easy for an emulator to implement user-adjustable restrictions on that.

> I've not before seen a summer street festival where armed militias wearing bulletproof vests patrol the streets. In big European cities it’s pretty normal to see cops wearing body armor and carrying rifles around such events.

Yeah, but very few people would place such monstrosities in their living room.

It’s too loud. Consider how other equipment you might place near your tv looks.
