Nope, because the ad parking can be TURNED OFF, and at the majority of decent registrars, even those who provide first-party ad parking services (obviously excluding HoDaddy), the default is OFF.
Commodore 64 BASIC. If you have to know the simple parts of the language to use the computer, then you have a great incentive to learn. I blame point-and-click for the degeneration of general computer usage skills. There used to be a need for some intellectual grasp of the tool to use it; now we have a bunch of kindergarteners with rocket launchers who never learned to aim away from their own face before pulling the trigger.
Your burger is the MySQL protocol. Your toppings are the implementation: MySQL, MariaDB, Percona Server, or any other. You want fries with that? Percona offers support contracts for any MySQL variant.
If someone choose to make a product and have DRM to protect it, when it is out there for consumers, they have a choice to buy it or leave it.
If all the software tools a person uses to make a living suddenly have DRM, they cannot "choose to leave it". That is their life. A person can't just pack up and do something entirely different.
Damnit. If they've fixed 42, that means they've found the question, and now the universe is just going to turn into a new confusing and illogical mess.
Hardly. They know what hash/salt/whatever they're using, and it's trivial to throw the list of common stupid passwords through it and pull a list of all users with matching hashes.
It's a perfectly viable alternative to MySQL. The emphasis is on MySQL. Nobody's saying that you should replace a real DB server with it, but if you want to get away from Oracle, you can, and there's a strong possibility that it will actually be better.
Tethering add-on? ROTFLMAO. Desktop data bits are the same as laptop data bits are the same as tablet data bits are the same as phone data bits. The effin' bits are effin' bits. If you've got a silly carrier with idiotic maximum-ripoff-profit-is-more-important-than-happy-customers management, there are these nice things called VPNs. Root your portable modem (sometimes referred to as a "smart phone"), connect it to a VPN, and tether all you want.
Second that. No way I'm buying a drive where the selling point is "it might last up to five years". Perhaps if "it will definitely last at least five years", but even that's a bit short.

keep your people under the yolk
Yolks are soft and squishy. Those attributes do not make an effective restraint. I'd much rather have a yoke.

This hull thing has gone a-rye.

"Yet Another Pissant Programming language". Can we quit pretending that "new is better" and just use the stuff that actually works?
Not having a web page would make it potentially legitimate. Having an ad parking page makes it a squatting troll.
You keep using these words. I do not think they mean what you think they mean.
I understand that you're in denial, but it will pass eventually.

Why? Did the WRT350N cease to exist?

Except for the stupid legal matter of those people not being held responsible when their company exercises those morals.
No sale.
There's a fallacy hiding in there. Can you find it? Hint: It starts with "you can always".
Looks more Hyunadiy to me...
I've heard the phrase "wall of text", but this is like Great Wall of China of Text to the Power of Ten...

If you had ever bothered to look for alternatives to I'm-A-Zombie and Mr. Burns, you'd have heard about them quite a long time ago.

Where is the location of this webkit at which it will identify itself?
The other way to look at it is that the over-engineering is now applied to making sure everything fails at an unreasonably early age.
Because all your bank accounts and credit cards and retirement funds and home/vehicle loan information aren't also on computers. Right.
