   As someone who's regularly donated to Wikipedia every year, this is concerting. I can't trust Wikipedia. I'm shocked actually.

   I bet that if you changed 1 word per day on a page, after 2 or 3 years, you've successfully modified the tone of an article that cannot be easily reverted.

   1800 edits on a single page in only a few years is essentially a sickness. I'm not a doctor, but that should be classified as obsession.

   What can Europe do to you? Assuming you are American, the only court you need to worry about is American court. Your company is American? Your bank is American? What's the actual liability here? Worst case?

   "you are required to comply with the laws of any country you do business with." Prove that. Because that's not how "the law" works. I am Canadian, my business exists only in Canada, and there are only two types of l

   You say one thing, other people say other things. It's easier just to say "this tool blocks Europeans" and problem avoided.

    Apparently, though, he was not specifically told that Equifax had a data breach. He guessed they did based on a project he was being asked to drop everything and help out with. It'll be an interesting case if he pleads not guilty.

    Falling upwards? Words having meanings! Let's just use words that mean what they mean. Facebook did not "LOSE" $100B, and the stock is not "falling".

    People are buying STEEM using Bitcoin to gain attraction to their content. Ads basically. Imagine if Facebook used a crypto for their ads instead of money. And you gain money back from people who like your ad making the ad cheaper or even p

    Cryptocurrency mining is about to consume more electricity than home usage in Iceland.[1] I assume it's similar in other places that have cheaper electricity. Seems that power companies should encourage consumers to mine Bitcoin. Probl

    But anyone who played the game more than a few hours would know that the time only increments in multiples of 3. And this same gamer lied about other games with scores that are impossible to get.

    I think the "uncomfortable to get in and out" needs to be addressed. Without the steering wheel, perhaps the seat can swivel, or perhaps passengers can exit from the front or back. I doubt, at typical car speeds, aerodynamics is a
