True. The one thing that corporations are extremely good at is destroying all the initiative and add so much bureaucracy to the development that you loose interest to improve / inovate as you are paifully aware that this will bring in

Another interesting story (as the site is just picking on IP, disregarding dynamic ips, vpns etc.) that might save potential users (for legal cases) some costs. The service is heavly false positive and wrong accusation might be expensive:

I do give you credit of giving people a quick shot how accurate torrent detection can be if you are a casual user not using VPN. Or not using private trackers. But. You dont know and you are clueless that this is not my ip. Furthermore, I h

My 5 cents. Regardless if this is Apple or any developer, subscription service etc., I consider giving my credit card number / paypal for testing any trial software as directly abusive. Maybe, it is just me but from my perspective this

What is extremely important here: we will not forget Google (Facebook, Amazon,...) but just add Visa and Mastercard to the same list. But still concentrate on Google (...) as large technological corporation have potential to end up worse.

Let me tell you a story. 4 Samsung smart TV models bought as a "pack" to bring down the price. Me and 3 friends bought them. 3 of them died in 5-6 years. One was just replaced with larger one but still works. Difference? First 3 w
