Rule of Acquisition #3: Never spend more on an acquisition than you have to

wouldn’t profilers simply track via the domain tld instead of the whole address…shopping1 at uniquedomain, bank2 at uniquedomain , etc

and in the case of aliasing, couldnt a domain provider tell where the aliases rout to and sell that info as a side earner?

A firearm isn’t worth much money in the scheme of things either its real worth is in publicly displaying it on your person, and having it loaded

So does MS know what I look like and have my age and phone no? presumably the tenant cloud is zero-knowledge from Redmond’s perspective

this is still objectionable

why does my employer presume it can commandeer my personal property? the only sound policy is to never let work stuff touch personal computers and vice versa. The workplace is like a gas, if you give it the empty space it will keep expanding to fill it

where the hell did my property rights go once one of my PCs got a radio?

the point I did a poor effort getting across was that obama shouldn’t be thought of as a leader with his move. like all politicians he follows crowds, elbows his way to the front and gets mistaken for an originator of ideas. Many of them are as bad as movie stars in their pathologic need to be seen and heard, even after they’ve left office

I will never understand the fitness metrics craze…I don’t want my health maintenance to be more systematized than observing two or three core principles and letting the rest sort itself out

Can’t show you the old stuff, if we show you the old stuff you wont watch the new stuff

how shielded are enterprise accounts from the data harvest?

dude what

The politicians represent you in a representative democracy, the whole point of their office is to be open to persuasion. I would be looking at that group’s effective network building and asking where are the groups representing my concerns/aspirations with such effectiveness

I hope all aussies don’t share your mindset, otherwise it’s a lost country

Look at what’s really happening though: the state is implicitly saying you can have free expression provided your reach is miniscule/ineffectual. The moment you get traction is the moment it will move to block use of your preferred platforms, or simply hard-/algorithmically ban you - it’s functionally identical to suppression of speech/association

They rely on the public’s credulity when they insist freedoms are intact because ‘only one website’ is verboten. It’s a dirty exploit. In reality, all platform denial should be protested

Says one of two things - either the guys opsec was comically sloppy and nailing him was free real estate, or getting this particular target was personal and thus the investigation got much more resources allocated than normal. Most LEO orgs (and prosecutors) just want to check the box that says YES we have successfully pwned 1 IP “criminal” in the past 1300 days, now let us continue harassing single mothers and busting drug labs in peace

Uncle Sam has ways of making other jurisdictions discover they have fux to give. Bulgaria is a good example from recent years. Other countries are better at containing him on the copyright question eg Australia, Canada, Netherlands, etc

Obama never struck me as being personally interested in the free web, his move to bs shows he’s an attention whore who has simply sensed the trend

Its primary utility is shoring up their image as the brand where ‘everything just works’ and op/interop is a thoughtless zero friction process. Compromise that and you lose normie, bigtime. So everyone gets locked in…and you get the walled prison basketball court

If you mandate reporting the accountants will design a reporting scheme that makes the default company behaviour appear environmentally friendly

Something something goodhart’s law

The government likes concentrated ownership because then it has only a few phonecalls to make if it wants its bidding done (be it censorship, manipulation, partisan political chicanery, etc)
