I remember many years ago the Dallas Morning News threatening to sue anyone who made a hyperlink directly to a story, instead of linking to the front page and telling people to go find the story (obviously so DMN could get more ad impressions). They should have hired more programmers and engineers so that they would eventually find one that would make outside links (referrer not from their own domain) redirect to their front page.
Yes, there are some context where real names would be good, like that which you showed. But I think people will normally figure that it in some context when they go to such a place. Most of the rest of the time, people are interacting with the world, which is often dangerous in many ways. People should have this choice. Too bad we cannot trust these companies to have our real name and keep it secret, if they claim they would let us use their service under a nym. If I were putting up a forum, I would not care if one uses a name or a nym. But for some forums, it's necessary to be sure users have only one identity, name or nym. That makes things complicated, too.
... when I was a kid wondering how flies could so easily see the fly swatter or my hand approaching. My guess was that since their brain was smaller, signals didn't have so far to go, and could be processed faster... and they would see the world from this faster-brain perspective as a slow world.
The issue is about having the fingerprint data. Business promise things to worker all the time, but their promises are so often just lies (and recently, at least in the US, told to lie by no such agency).
Being on top of a higher mountain places you further from the all that mass of the whole planet, reducing your gravity. How it is that they are showing higher gravity for some mountains is not understood.
Tenure evaluations focus on research that brings in money. The people who can do research well and are lousy at teaching are preferred over people who can do teaching well and are lousy at research. The latter group does not bring in the cash. The latter group rarely gets tenure. If you have a Ph.D you are expected to do more research than teaching.
... most businesses will accept this information as if it came from the original person, without really checking who it is coming from. And thus identity theft works... not because the identity is taken, but because these businesses assume identity equals authorization.
Most criminals will deny their crimes. We just have to figure out if someone removed the plug intentionally or if it was an accident and the plug came out on its own. But if it came out on its own, they are still liable for buying cheap plugs.
Just be sure you do not build from source with a compiler that was not built from source, or a compiler that was built from source by a compiler that was not built from source, or a compiler that was built from source by a compiler that was built from source by a compiler that was not built from source... and so on. In other words, source is fine (as long as you read it all) but binary is not since it may be secretly infected.
How does that help to have no address bar? Just make sure the web server cannot read it. People need to have a way to be sure they actually got to the site they intended to go to.
They can compete if the US gets hit by a massive depression that makes the dollar virtually worthless. Then $50/hr is enough to buy a half slice of bread each day.
But this just means people's donations don't get to where they wanted them to go. Everyone should demand their donations be returned now, so they can send the donations in by another means... AND SOON... LIKE NEXT WEEK.
And what does PayPal do about all those false chargebacks?
Demand your money back from PayPal today. When they get more than $45k worth of donors demanding their money back, then what are they going to do? What if ALL donors demand their money back? What if people start suing PayPal to get their money back (all individual lawsuits)?

None of them use Facebook.
My nephew, when he was a kid, chased down and caught a chipmunk with his bare hands. I'd never seen him move so fast. I doubt he can do that now.

Actually, it's the big evil corporations that to the licensing that hate Canadians.

Who said it wasn't the NSA? Do you believe what you read on Slashdot.

... make new dealerships just for Tesla. People can start a dealership, contract with Tesla, then sell it to Tesla.
It's more of a match to Nazi practices than to Soviet/Communist practices.

It's not ... it's pretending to be something else.
The best place to hide is in the crowd. DO NOTHING. Then they won't be interested in you.
If you ATTEMPT to get privacy, they will attract their attention towards you. You must have something to hide (which is, of course, yourself).

Eventually, almost all jobs will be gone. Then who will the one percenters sell their products to?

And what does PayPal do about all those false chargebacks?
The people that would shoot the executives in the head do not need PayPal. They have their own money methods.
And I stopped using EBay (and dumped my 300 shares stock holdings in it) mostly because of PayPal. That was years ago.
