I don't see why it's silly. Just because they're doing the bare minimum doesn't mean they can't do better, especially when they very obviously have the resources to be able to. We very much can consider whether Amaz

"I'm curious, is a TV station liable for content of Syndicated shows, or commercials or all the other content it did not produce but choose to show?" Well, they chose to show it. So yes.

He doesn't seem to be serious, but I don't think one could really call the domain a "joke". It's using a word who's sole connotation is as a racial slur. And i don't see why there shouldn't be impulsi

Nobody is accusing him of anything other than hosting some poor joke domains. However, his domain was the one that the emails threatening several school districts came from. And while I'm sure they don't think he's the culpri

Slack may be IRC recreated, but at least for groups/businesses, they've definitely fixed a lot of the pain points of IRC. No arcane signup process, extremely simple sharing of files, perpetual history, etc.
