CVE-2018-1337 Corners of ACME Technologies routers meet at an angle under the recommended MITRE/ASME specification of 90 x 90 x 90 degrees, which can be exploited to infect resources with the LOCKJAW worm (aka CVE-1421-0004 Tetanus). This affects models produced between 2014-01-01 and 2015-04-01. Mitigation: File the corners down.
You may RTFA, but I don't think you RTF parent post.
The example is private plane takeoff and landing where one records comings and goings from a particular airport. One presumably does not tail all the subjects in a chase plane. The bit that you you quoted specifically says "legitimately be obtained," which would specifically exclude information obtained while stalking, trespassing, etc.
This is some subtlety to this topic, where the public's right to say things is balanced against an individual's right to privacy.
Last I checked, Firefox was looking at changing to what Chrome does, which will make it even WORSE, because it is not about muting audio, it is about not having autoplaying anything.
As someone with a personal domain, I appreciate the opportunity to avoid broadcasting my personal details on WHOIS.

My leaving my front door unlocked does not mean you aren't guilty if breaking and entering if you open the door, walk in, and take something that isn't yours.
But if you are a public government office and the front door is unlocked, people may assume that they are free to enter. And if you then have documents sitting there right on a table that says "public information" when people come in, people may assume that they can read them.
Now, how about a car analogy?
Your analogy is better than GP's, but this is a little more like a public government office with a sign that says "Documents available in cabinets 3-17." You might see cabinets 1 and 2 in the same room. You might even open one and see that it contained information about some of your neighbors at their behest...
But you might not photograph every document in those two cabinets and take them home with you. Unless perhaps you're a voyeur, an asshat, or an extortionist. If you're a responsible adult, you might even suggest to the clerk that they should lock the cabinets.
I don't know that this wanker needs any jail time, but I'm not against a strong warning. Also, the government needs to start locking the cabinets.
I agree, but man pages have nothing to do with gender. It's called a man page because it's short for manual. The command was called man most likely because so many commands were shortened back then to 2 or 3 letters.
My USA history is a little shoddy, but I believe the reason for limiting the House of Rep growth was parliamentary proceedings and structures continued to inflate with the size, and they worked out that eventually the body couldn't get anything done.
It would be interesting to index the representational power of a Congressman to the least populous state, but you'd have 532 (or so) representatives, increasing the size of the House by 20%. Then, if 8.000 (really just 4.000) people leave or return to Wyoming, it messes with the district count and apportionment in California.
Also, it floors me that people keep moaning about Californians and New Yorkshiremen having insufficient representation, when Puerto Rico is more populous than the bottom five states, and gets a single congressional representative who can't actually do anything.
IANAL but this sure sounds an awful lot like fraud. They claim to be providing a service but don't actually provide it? The FTC should come down like a load of bricks on these companies.
Agreed. All it takes is one sufficiently-large fine or market closure to provoke change.
Well yeah but this is for a different reason. Spammers ruin everything.
Just require messages to be signed with PKI. For a while, you'll only get messages from nerds and extremely motivated commenters. Then you'll get messages from nerds and bots, but by that point you should be able to have a reasonable user base of actual nerds to make your own WOT. And if you don't have that user base, your blag didn't need comments in the first place.
Spammers ruin everything. [...] Facebook takes care of that for you.
Didn't spammers ruin Facebook, too? I think the Americans are convening their parliament over it.
Facebook "guaranteed" it would never share my birthdate after they "needed" it to make sure I was 13+. Then, a few years later, they started showing it without any change in my settings.
Best case scenario: It turns into an extortion racket where they promise to continue not-selling your data as long as you keep paying the ever-increasing fees. Likeliest scenario: You pay them, and their solicitors decide that "a user's data" is different than "a user's (metadata|$anything_with_resale_value)," and sell you out anyway. Plus fees. Worst case scenario: Zuckerberg is revealed to be Robot Nixon.
They can take their "guarantees," and put them into the bonfire of promises from politicians and companies that are too big to fail.
May I direct your attention to the U.S. television industry, wherein one could receive broadcast telly or one paid money to cable companies to have channels without advertisements? Only now, one pays the cableco and sees adverts...
How well do you trust FB to maintain the split between the free and paid tiers?

There's an old saying about democracy being "two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch".
That what representative democracy is. (And is huge chunk of the reasons why your system is so screwed in the US).
Meanwhile, direct democracy works. You should try this sometimes.
I am pretty sure that direct democracy is 6,563,729 wolves and 5,235,973 sheep voting on what to have for lunch.

You mean what Chrome does with chrome://flags/#autoplay-policy? Or the "Media Interaction" voodoo that TFA talks about?
None, I imagine. It's a built in function of Chrome.
Indeed: chrome://settings/content/sound If you want to go all-in (not currently per-site), you can hit chrome://flags/#autoplay-policy
Concrete is two, three, four, five times stronger than concrete and even more.
What? What material is stronger than itself?

I'm sorry, his responses are limited. You must ask the right questions.
If the people proposing this aren't aware that it already exists (kinda) then you have to suspect they're simply after some venture capital.
Not only exists, but multiply so. Diaspora and Mastodon are off the top of my head, and I'm sure that a cursory search would bring up more.

Is this an example of "man splaining" ?

Wrong priorities man. Take over the world *first*, and then you can have others fix all your computer problems.
If you run the world and someone else runs your computer, who really runs the world?
What is the resistance of an 8 gauge wire strung twice over the Pacific from Death Valley CA to Beijing? And how much power does it dissipate at 5MV?
I'm assuming you are speaking to population here, and I notice you are skipping Texas and Florida.

These guys need to get out in front of the perception and "do something" (I have no idea what that would be), or...
They are. It is called "campaign contributions."
