Wow, I can't type, I meant to say: ... so most large companies that use "TVCs" will have rules around how to work with them including not allowing them certain benefits like training, feedback, etc.
This is why I found that article to be purely sensationalist. I manage 30+ of what the article calls "TVCs" and I am not allowed by law to give them certain kinds of feedback or give them swag. This is know as co-employment and can land the company in a lot of legal hot water so most large companies that use "TVCs" I get that the vast majority of people haven't managed "TVCs" but the article didn't even mention what the law is.
That's Google's stance, which is why they're moving things on to HTTPS. The downside is that a SSL or TSS certificate is often not free and a lot of smaller sites can't afford it.
Which is some people are now trying to offer free SSL/TSS certificates, such as Linux Foundation's Let's Encrypt platform.
I'm not saying what he's doing is right. But I'm also saying even if you are poor, you don't get a free pass to not follow the law. And if you think the law is incorrect, petition it to get it changed. Solve problems in a civil manner.
What shouldn't happen is bringing your own brand of justice outside of the law. That's anarchy and it's not really good for anyone.
Then you are just doing what he's doing, being a vigilante.
If he wanted the fruit vendors gone and they were truly unauthorized, then call the police on their non-emergency number. It's that simple. If the fruit vendor were authorized, then take it up with the city. Going there and destroy people's produce is destruction of property, which is vandalism or malicious mischief in California punishable by up to a year in prison.
Which doctor? How do you know the doctor you go to will be a specialist for the treatment that you need? You should look up online to see what treatment options are available and which doctors/hospitals/clinics specializes in what forms of cancer.
The case in here is that the student had stage iv synovial sarcoma. And chemo and radiation didn't work. That's pretty poor prognosis, so they went down the experimental route. But the hospital that they went to basically falsely promised that they had a 80-90% chance of curing the cancer using a immunotherapy technique not cleared in any country for treating the cancer that he had. I remember reading in one of the articles in Chinese that the technique was already proven to be ineffective against sarcomas. So the issue is that basically the hospital lied.
And finally, the kicker of all of this pile of crap, is that the hospital that performed the procedure wasn't even the hospital that was advertising on Baidu. The hospital that was advertising used to be a pretty famous hospital and it was a military hospital which used to be inaccessible to non-military personnel or their families (Second Hospital of Beijing Armed Police Corps). However, this has changed in the last several years, but to cope with the huge influx of the number of patients wanting to get the best, the hospital outsourced the cancer treatment to a different hospital. And the outsourced hospital could use the name "Second Hospital of Beijing Armed Police Corps) despite not actually being part of the hospital. The the worst part of all of this is that the outsourced hospital also named one other famous organization in the cancer (specifically the immunology) field. They claimed that this treatment was a joint research with Stanford, which of course is a lie as well.
Jokes aside, this will probably lead more people to drink coffee and alcohol at the same time since they think they'll stay awake longer and be able to drink more. This is a bad idea actually since having a stimulant and a depressant can lead to heart attacks (in severe cases) or capillary damage (in less severe cases).
Or just don't rent a modem from your ISP. By your own modem (they're usually less than $100), so at the $10 per month rental price, you'll make it back in a year. Also since it's your own modem, there doesn't need to be the public hotspot. I also would recommend not getting the modem router combos. They usually don't have that great of performance and are much less configurable.
I second this. There are a lot of ways to approach this, but reading some books on Negotiations is always helpful.
But make sure you have a lawyer (one that you are paying, don't just get a friend who may not spend as much time on it since it's just a favor) to thoroughly look through any contracts.
But if you are worried about it transmitting when off, it's actually very easy to check with packet sniffers. This really shouldn't even be a he said she said argument. There is a really clear and simple way to test this:
1. Turn Nest Camera to "off" mode, ie the Green LED is off.
2. Start up wireshark and see if the Nest Camera is transmitting to the anything and where it's transmitting to.
Now, repeat the above with the Nest fully turned on. Compare the packets captured. Is the camera talking to the same servers and transmitting similar amount of data?
You can tell much more objectively this way then speculating what is or isn't doing based on power usage.
I like how the people posting blatant lies post anonymously:)
First of all, there is a difference between the camera being powered on and recording. It's like leaving your camera on but not hitting the shutter. The camera is on, but nothing is being saved anywhere.
Second, you can delete your videos. You can do it on the old dropcams to the new Nest Cams. See the support site if you don't know how to do it.

If you are worried about the fact that it can take a few days for all the copies in the distributed cloud to be deleted, then yes, when you host the amount of data that Google does, it's going to take some time for all the replicated copies to be deleted. Cloud infrastructure is pretty complicated.
There is no need, there is already a separate law for that, they can call you a traitor. And the consequences are much worse than anything in this law. In that case, they can just arrest you and put you in jail. Why would they use this law where they have to try you in court first? And there is no prison term attached to this law, only some fines.
Actually, I'm pretty sure that Google can theoretically sublicense it to other entities not related to Google. But I doubt that's what happened. Google has this clause so they can pick up awesome videos and use it in commercials without getting sued for infringement. As that would actually mean sublicensing the content from Google to a media firm. Besides, Google+ is not a subsidiary of Google, neither is Youtube. They are just products offered by Google. They don't need to sublicense it to move it form one service or another.
But yes, the Youtube Standard License give Google the right to sublicense and distribute not anyone viewing the videos. So if you download a video that's not yours on Standard YouTube License from YouTube and then upload it to your website without using the YouTube link you are actually pirating. If you use the YouTube container (ie it's actually streaming from YouTube) then you are getting a sublicense which is not pirating.
Of all the firms I've worked at, we've allowed the use of PEDs. From the survey, it seems like the only policy possible was one that bans PEDs. I feel like the survey should specifically ask if PEDs are banned. Because my company has a policy regarding PEDs in place, but they do not ban PEDs. There are device management policies in place instead. I think the survey would benefit from making that distinction.
But then that's like saying why are we using iPhones or Android devices, they might go away in the future. Just because in 2035 you wouldn't want to use the services/product doesn't mean you should avoid them now.
Anyway, Gmail is part of Google's Apps for Work platform, so it will be supported long after we stop caring about it because there will be companies paying for it.
If he is not a disgruntled worker just work with him to set up expectations from the IT side of things. Do you expect him to turn his computer in? When? Should he delete files off? Yes/No?
I think most people would be happy to work though an exit checklist and it would make you seem really organized.
But if the employee has it in for you, then you may want to do more than that. But it looks like you've already made back ups of things that you think may be important.
In any case, I would formulate a standard policy for people leaving the firm. So that they have clear expectations on what needs to be done on the IT side of things.
So I think you have a year to claim your upgrade code. At least that's how it was with Windows 7 to 8. I got the $15 code within the time frame. And my code still worked last week when I finally gotten around to updating that laptop.

Which if Google gave those TVCs those benefits would get them in the territory of co-employement and then they would have Microsoft's issues...

Spin up a VPN server from inside of China. There are plenty of those services and you'll be able to browse as if you are in China.
They already have quite a few hacking teams, which took home most of the prizes for Pwn2Own this year.
Google is hiring UX designers, perhaps you should join up? https://www.google.com/about/c...

I can agree to that, being a vigilante is not the way to go.
Although I have to say he probably doesn't have that great of a lawn to start with given our nice little drought over here in CA.
I'm not saying what he's doing is right. But I'm also saying even if you are poor, you don't get a free pass to not follow the law. And if you think the law is incorrect, petition it to get it changed. Solve problems in a civil manner.

Why don't you just buy your own modem? It's cheaper than renting the modem from Comcast.

Use incognito or some sort of privacy mode. Google wouldn't have a prior search history so it'll not "distort" the results.
Amazon Prime Video doesn't have captions for all videos either. Neither does Hulu...
