The way it is SUPPOSED to work is that all five eyes countries spy on each others' citizens, then share their data with each other. So this should be America spying on UK citizens. Or Australia. Or New Zealand. Or sorry, Canada.
Actually, they're preparing to move their datacenters OUT OF THE USA because of the NSA's insistence on cutting our own throat on privacy.
Also, in case TRUMP/HILLARY gets into office.
HEY GUYS! I JUST SOLVED THE PROBLEM!
To prevent robots from coming in and stealing your job, just put a robtots.txt file in your root directory.
Don't want self-driving cars driving down your street? Just post a robots.txt
Don't want drones flying over your house? robots.txt!
Even stops Google.
I expect nothing less than delivery from a central location by 3D-printed drone direct to wherever I am in 15 minutes or less.
Boom. Just replaced 15 McD's in the greater metro area, along with 95% of the staff.
During down times, the robots work on my plan to build [REDACTED] from baby [REDACTED] to [REDACTED] the [REDACTED].
Yeah, but that increased plantlife is most likely to be ragweed.
Also, any intelligent inhabitants of Earth millions of years from now will not find coal deposits created during our era. The reason we have great deposits of coal is that they were accrued before fungus with the ability to break down lignin evolved. That was a one-shot deal. Unless those breeds of fungus go extinct.

hey, I liked the way dropcam did their zone alert summary.
I just didn't like having to 1) subscribe to 2) constantly upload to their cloud to use it.
You forgot the Kickstarter & Etsy steps.
Do you even have a MBA, bro?!!
obviously the best dog name is now : Fido'); DROP TABLE DOGS; --
somebody mod this cynical coward up!
Their NAZIs must not be very good rocket engineers.
Which makes sense since America, the USSR & Great Britan got first dibs.
This makes no sense.
I would expect python programmers to practice haruspicy , not astrology.
WTF UKGOV?!!!
YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO SPY ON YOUR CITIZENS!

That's pretty big talk for someone that doesn't have a 57-kilometer tunnel.
Yup, we're all out of innovation here.
pretty soon we're going to reach the advertising event horizon.
In the aftermath of which, humans will evolve wings and curse the ground.
I hope this time Congress attached some performance requirements so they don't just TAKE the money and do NOTHING like last time.

Strangely, doesn't cite WTF Wikimapedia?!
Sounds like the wild eyed futurism of "Closer than we think by Arthur Radebaugh
Of course, in the future world of 2016, we have robot rocket-ships that return to base and land automatically, so who are we to sneer?
Whatever happened to their motto "don't be evil"?
Oh. wait, that wasn't them.

Oh good, One Night at Freddy's, now with 15,000 new locations!
/. today?
Given the pace of technological change, if it's economical at $35K/year now, it will be economical at any rate in very few years.
Those support jobs might to be better paid, but fewer.
And not everybody has the aptitude to be trained for that job.
Also, isn't this like the 4th "ROBOTZ are coming to TAKE YER JERBS!" story on
Oh god, another nerd on the internet that thinks he's an expert on everything!
It's a free ride when you've already paid

Git along lil' doggie.
You have 30 seconds to comply.
Such big, innocent trusting eyes.
Oh man, they're going to eat you up. I can't wait to see the depravity they inflict on Pepper.
Also, WTF, no legs?! This is 2016, a robot should be able to walk around like God and Lewis Padgett intended!

You sound like a pretty cool dad, empowering them to learn haxxoring and shit.
Funny that they have limited phones adapted for seniors, but people are supposed to give their children full-auto 662 horsepower unrestricted iPhones.
And they should be cheap, too. They're always losing them or forgetting and putting them in the washer. (unclear who I'm talking about here...)
