North Korea has Democratic and Republic in its official name, this does not implies that it is a democractic republic and it does not implies democracy and republic are totalitarism.
Same fro NSDAP: the fact that someone grabbed and kinked a concept does not invalidates it universally. And we we talk about "social" in the US, it has nothing to do with soviet Russia.
European storms have nothing to do with US east coast hurricanes. The later appear in a warm ocean, typically in tropical zone, and move toward to the poles. Europe has no southern tropical ocean and therefore cannot ever have this kind of hurricanes.
Is there an official reason for regionally differed releases? I could see a valid one: Spear first-day server load on several periods. Obamacare website has shown it can be important.
The criticism applies to any field. In order to get good at something, most people need to work on it to acquire skills and knowledge.History? Dull and weirdos. Philosophy? Dull and weirdos. Sport? Dull and weirdos. And so on.
But International free trade means companies of a given country compete with companies in many other juridictions, giving an edge to the one that has the lower taxes and the lower standards for environment and workers. In the end it hurts everyone except the owners of transnational corporations. We the 99% of all countries need the right balance of international trade and protectionism.
I hope I will not upset some Japanese people, but seen from outside, Japan's political elite seems completely out of control from the people. It is quite refreshing to see that they have moral grounds high enough that they still behave correctly. I wish our politicians were of the same kind.
This is not bound to be racism, as the definition of nation (that is: how is legitimate to get the nationality) is not the same among countries. Some consider you have to adhere to core values,some consider you have to speak a language, some consider it has to do with ethnicity or religion.
I suspect your point of view is rather "adhesion to core values", so is mine, but we need to accept that for some other countries, the nation has to do with ethnicity, without taking for granted that they think they are a superior race.
You would deserve +1 informative, but I wonder how the whole story made it to Slashdot. While I agree corrupted politicians should be shamed ans Interne is a valuable tool for that, this story looks very local news, isn't it?
France is fifth in suveillance ranking, it is also fifth in GDP ranking. US is first in both ranking
That reminds me a Jean-Jacques Rousseau observation that government is the luxury of the People. The more wealth a country produce, the more a government may grow strong and oppressive.
With this idea in mind, it is not a surprise to see that GDP and surveillance ranking overlap. The interesting points are the country that rank high in surveillance but not in GDP. That suggests and odd situation.
It seems that the deceptive name of Greenland was chosen on purpose by vikings to attract more crowd. Early Viking explorers also named northern Canada as Wineland.
HTTPS by default is nice, except for WiFi hotspots, where the authentication system intercept your first HTTP request. This cannot be done with HTTPS, which means that people with an always HTTPS home page will never auto-connect. I wonder if there will ever be a solution to that.
Right, they are terrible at it. But are other IT companies better?
The bare concept of a contracted IT project has issue. Some engineers will work during the project time, and will move to something else once completed. That means they never face the consequences of their bad practice.
They "may have" being listening to Merkel communication? I admire the journalist that was able to keep it to the fact, and retained being too much affirmative, but I would be very surprised if NSA did not listen to Merkel (and all other EU leaders) communications.
I wonder if they managed to monitor Putin, though.
They claim they need more money for investment. I can bet that if this goes forward, we will discover in a few years that investment did not raise, but profit did.

That was moderated -1 troll: someone has no sense of humor here.
The hack is interesting, but the euro is irrelevant here, it died in 2009.
TFA says
encryption is “added and removed here!”
and it also says:
the company is rushing to encrypt the links between its data centers. “It’s an arms race,”
That looks contradictory. Is it encrypted or not?
Did they cheat, like everyone does?
We do not celebrate Halloween in my country, you insensitive clod.

I am sure one can write editorials without talking about stuff one knows nothing about...

Good journalism is about to defeat your personal bubble, and let enter information you would not have thought as relevant.
Getting "the news you want" means you just reinforce each days your beliefs and biases.

teachers often can't answer and don't understand the questions they have to set their pupils.
It seems obvious to me that they need to invest in teacher training, rather than anything else

Of course he denies any law or constitution violation : he will be accountable for them.

From TFA
you can make that kind of surveillance a lot more difficult and expensive
Which means, that unless the problem is addressed at the political level by removing surveillance, you will just work to increase your taxes.
Thins kid of regulation are to be challenged with the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership. I fear that European bureaucrats are more fond of free market than human rights.
