I'm unsurprised people are unwilling to pay for this service: InboxCleaner provides very little added value on top of a service which is free. Further: it's trivial for a competitor to undercut your app with a free alternative. I suggest yo

I'm not defending Google, I'm just pointing out that, unlike Facebook, their founders haven't declared the "Age of Privacy" as over. FWIW: I dislike Facebook but I use it anyway because that's where everyone I know seems to be. If I could s

Are suggesting that the personal information you upload to Facebook isn't available to random strangers at that particular corporation? At least Google has aspirations of not being evil. Mark Zuckerberg only seems to aspire to eliminating

So it's not enough that I spend hours working and tailoring my CV and cover letter for every job application and hours more writing answers to selection critera. Now you want me to record and produce a video selling myself? Hah! Good luck w

On the east coast it tends to be true. As others have mentioned it might not hold on the west coast. I just wanted to give a counterexample that shows how shallow the OP's argument is. The reality is that there are many factors which make c
