When you're a legal citizen, and then they inevitably also forward your data to a 3rd party consumer data broker to monetize it and track you without your consent, then that is an invasion of privacy.
Overhaul your fucking network first. How come you can't provide more than 1 megabit of upload bandwidth even in the middle of the most densely-populated and theoretically profitable areas in the US? South Korea has 100 megabit synchronous fiber connections running to houses with dirt fucking floors! What the fuck is wrong with you assholes?
They're not using batteries. They're just pulling the electricity from the atmosphere directly, like the original Tesla intended. Not like the corporation usurping his name intends to do.
Oh? And when it sucks up all the funding for medical research into curing diseases that would have otherwise been within society's grasp to cure, then what? Does that still not matter?
Not for the rich, or in the future, or anywhere at all.
You may be speaking sense here, but unfortunately this won't stop the detached super-wealthy from blowing it all up in an attempt to drive the industry towards the direction of technological development they think will most suit their dystopian plan for the future.
Doesn't happen much, but this time I'm going to have to agree with Anonymous Coward. All that will be accomplished by making programming languages easier is fostering the proliferation of even less qualified jackasses flooding the market with dangerously insecure and buggy code.
For every five hundred thousand or so obstinate windows users who think they are punishing us, there is one that it might sink through to. We'll continue to try to save the ones that deserve it, thank you. You can strive to become worthy or you can continue to get bent.

Is there any chance they will let the public sector copy this database before they just burn it along with all the books?
Woah, its like all the trolls just reached critical mass and started imploding upon themselves into a singularity!
Perhaps we are playing "Two Lies, One Truth?"

Bots are users too!
Don't worry. They'll simply line their pockets with the excess, or just move it over to the "offense" spending column.
FALSE. Non-criminals go to the police stations to file reports all the time.

...then ironically don't use it to leave Detroit.
I'm just wondering if this technology can be scaled up to something human-sized. Could this improve the efficiency of personal aircraft designs?

I see what you did there.

I've got some bad news for you about the ratio of dirt to water on Mars.
If they find a way to do it cheaply, they will...
...immediately patent it and then jack the price through the roof.
FTFY.
Try actually signing up for a Lisp class and you'll find out exactly why.

Having your sunscreen recalled in the state of Hawaii does not constitute a birth condition.
I wonder if Amazon wishes they'd held out on that high-bid buyout of Whole Foods right about now.
Fezzik: Why do you wear a mask? Were you burned by acid, or something like that?
Westley: Oh no. It's just they're terrible comfortable. I think everyone will be wearing them in the future.
They may not have "twittered" but you can bet every single other dipshit hater would have.
