I believe they'll still be able to do those things, though. It's just a matter of time. The slowing and spying that is. It won't be as easy, but I believe it'll be feasible. It's the typical arms race. Or as last re

They ought not to. Astrology is pseudoscience. You should checkout James Randi or "The Amazing Randi." Here's one of his videos about it. He has been debunking a lot of pseudoscience topics for a long time now. https:/

Fear isn't a new paradigm. It has long been established that media outlets, religion, terrorism, ads, etc use(s) fear as a means of control. I suggest watching "Bowling for Columbine"--here's a notable excerpt: https:&#

That's a highly complex problem, IMHO; since it involves lots of variables and variability. And, quite honestly, I doubt there's ever going to be a proper way to solve it. But here are some of my observations: - Everyone's o

If I were in your shoes I'd use other products/services instead. The problem with the "billion user audience" products/services is that they do not have enough people (if any) as support when stuff like this happens
