Which means that you have a better chance of dodging the abuse if you simply don't put yourself in the center of the target, by not using any Google product.
Both extremely wrong and naive. Tons and tons of websites are still reporting back your data about you to Google through their analytics tools. Google is still getting plenty of your data without ever visiting a single one of their products. No different than Facebook being able to aggregate data about people who have never been members simply through the people that person knows posting info about them.
It doesn't matter. If the people behind Bitcoin never bothered to file for a patent, JP Morgan is now going to get it first--meaning Bitcoin will then be in violation of said patent (as unfair as that is).
That's not what first-to-file means, you Twit. First-to-file has to do with who gets a patent granted in the case of multiple application covering the same idea. And in fact, the scope of what could be used as prior art was broadened in the act that changed the system to first-to-file.
It's because the summary misrepresents what it's linked article actually said. The important quote is:
On Monday evening, only days before the one-year anniversary of Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting, the Senate extended the Undetectable Firearms Act but failed to pass modifications that would address the growing prevelance of plastic firearms.
Basically the original act was extended but a modified version failed to pass.
They aren't opposed to government surveillance. They are opposed to the damage done to their images because their collusion with the government was publicly revealed. Had Snowden never leaked anything you would have heard jack-and-shit from these companies about "reform". They would have just continued writing it off as a cost of doing business.
I'm sure I'll get downmodded again like I was yesterday for pointing this out by the clueless numbnuts who fall for these corporate PR stunts.
The "so what" is that they would have never done anything had there been no PR disaster. They would have continued to gladly give taps on their customer's data. Ignorants like yourself will believe this stunt is some genuine backlash when it's simply so they can save face and continue yo give over the data anyway.
All they are doing is try to protect themselves and their businesses. They could give a shit less about the people being spied on. If they had really cared they would have done this years ago not simply when the egg splatted on their faces.
Last time I checked, accomplices are legally complicit in crimes being committed. Why should any of them be offered any deference when none is given to us plebes?
Starving your body tells it to burn muscle, thus increasing your body fat percentage. It's why people who do crash diets have higher body fat percentages when they are done than before they started it because there body burned off lots of their lean body mass.
Where did I say Obama's spying was Bush's fault? I responded to a post talking about the 911 attacks. Last time I checked those didn't happen under Obama's regime.
Slashdot Mirror
You don't need to use Google to be tracked by them. Did you not notice the Google Analytics and Google AdWords scripts that Slashdot runs?
And this article is amusing in light of the fact that Slashdot has been using Google Analytics and other tools that are feeding this data to Google.

They just want to do it all themselves?

Basically it says you must have some amount of metal in the gun so it can be detected.

My bad. That should be *share* since obviously they never stopped.
Your "proof" would have been that they're one of the Five Eyes group which is publicly documented that they shared intelligence with each other.
So all the games play like crap?
Sure, but it's been a usable emulator for more than 5 years or so.
Recently? PCSX2 is at least 11 years old at this point.

The NSLs don't become null-and-boid because of the leaks. This pure PR damage control and nothing more.

What kind of ultra-simplistic naive world do these children live in?
Their parents' basements.
Especially when the Westboro Baptists are just trolls. They have no real power.
Last time I checked, accomplices are legally complicit in crimes being committed. Why should any of them be offered any deference when none is given to us plebes?
Especially when the US didn't accept such logic in the Nuremberg Trials. "Just following orders" does not excuse things.

No one claims they did other than a few ignorants. Hell the technique was being used back in the 19th century as well by Eadweard Muybridge.

and actually I find your link way more interesting and informative than TFA.
That's because the article is a fluff piece.
