These days, analysts with decent reputations have predicted the cryptocurrency's trading price could go as high as $50,000, $100,000, and even $1 million.
In other words, they have no idea why it's doing what it's doing.
I'm starting to think "expert" is someone who is physically unable to utter the words "I don't know".
I'm not an expert, but I don't know if you're right.
1% signed up with an honest intent to be an editor and with knowledge to back it up. 4% signed up as a lark and to see what it was all about. 5% signed up with good intentions but don't have any knowledge to create pages with.
The other 90% are trolls that signed up to graffiti pages of politicians they don't like, or to edit Taylor Swift's page to talk about how she really has a penis.
yup 100% of the time it will work. except the times where it doesn't like when someone has hidden a camera in a bathroom or hotel room or their bedroom...
Or they accidentally upload the photo to their feed instead of the protection service.
Pick better friends and don't get shitfaced, blacked-out drunk and/or high when you go out. Don't expect other people to be sympathetic when your own poor choices come to bite you in that ass you felt the internet just had to see.
Meh... Facebook can probably generate a fairly accurate nude photo of anyone based upon their skin tone, and various clothed body photos already taken. If they have enough body shots they can probably have an algorithm generate your body shape under those clothes. They can guess at the colour of your nipples and genitalia by looking at the pigmentation of your lips. (nipple colour supposedly similar to lip colour). Pubic hair colour can be guessed at by hair colour- they can't tell if you shave or not, but probably can accurate guess by demographic. Under 35 you're probably shorn... 35 - 45 you're probably trimmed- over 45 you're probably full bush.
If you aren't paying for it you are the product being sold. It is as simple as that.
That's fine if you're USING the service. You're getting something in exchange. For those of us not on Facebook; we're the product and we've never used their stupid service. I should be compensated if I am the product and I haven't signed up to be.
Dude there is no right to privacy if you are in a public place, people could always see you or take photos etc, it is not new, if you don't want that then stay indoors.
Tinfoil hatters, nobody is coming to get you, you are not that important.
You can be in your own private house and someone comes over, takes a photo and later uploads it to Facebook. Bang... privacy gone just as easy, and you were just in your own home... now Facebook has your face, your home's location, and connections to other people and you don't have a facebook account.
malevolent/mlevlnt/ adjective having or showing a wish to do evil to others.
AI can take over without having malevolent intent. Especially if we willingly hand over power to the AI and the AI legitimately works for what it thinks are humanities best interests. It could eventually take away man's freedoms and independent will; but not do it with a malevolent intent.
With the speed of computers, I'm afraid it will be too late before we even realize the genie is out of the bottle.
There doesn't even need to be a malevolent AI to take over humanity. It could be a benevolent takeover that is prompted by people.
Forget science fiction movies and books; there doesn't need to be a revolution where an AI is more intelligent than us and we realize too late. It could happen slowly step by step.
To be effective in the stock market now you have to have certain computer led decisions. That might not be true AI yet, but a computer can respond to news faster than a human. All the major traders use computer made decisions now. So, there is one industry where computers are already prominent. What if it happens in other industries over time (it is... and we're gladly and willingly turning over control).
What if we decide computers, or AI can control the economy better than a human. If one country does it and it proves to be successful, others will have to do it to keep up. What if AI can handle trials better than a jury. What if AI can produce better military strategies.
There doesn't have to be an revolution; AI will evolve to take over humanity with us willingly handing it the reigns. Probably won't happen in our lifetime, but the slow transfer of power has already begun. Right now humans can override computer decisions, but that will eventually disappear when AI is less flawed than people and we realize a human overriding it is usually wrong.
AI will one day rule and control humanity- and we WILL give it that power over us willingly.

I'll bet the Butler won't take bitcoin for payment.. But that's just a guess..
That's what Doge Coins are for.

Good grief! You're loaded! It's time to think about hiring a butler!
These trackers are all installed by Santa! How else is he going to know if you're being naughty or nice.
You better watch out,
You better not cry,
You better not pout,
I'm telling you why,
Santa Clause is tracking your phone.
He sees you when you're naked,
he watches you undress,
he tracks your phones movement,
upon his G. P.S.
Is this a problem iPhones too, or is this just an android problem?
Why track an apple user? We know where they are at all times. ... standing in line to buy the next iPhone.
That sounds exactly like something Satoshi Nakamoto would say...
Nah! Nakamoto would say something in Japanese instead.
How does someone else's electric car improve my life?
By lowering your chance of lung cancer, skin cancer, asthma... etc
How does a big kid digging a tunnel improve my life?
By lowering congestion and giving you more time to do other things.
Quite frankly, I'm surprised you didn't ask what the Romans have ever done for us!
No, obviously it's John McAfee.
Too much meth, John McAfee has difficulty tying his shoes these days, let alone, performing something as complex as creating a cryptocurrency.
No, that is too difficult. It means people will miss five seconds of texts which are coming through.
Texts come through perfectly fine without Wi-Fi. Messaging doesn't use Wi-Fi.
That's probably because:
1% signed up with an honest intent to be an editor and with knowledge to back it up.
4% signed up as a lark and to see what it was all about.
5% signed up with good intentions but don't have any knowledge to create pages with.

That assertion makes me think I've seen a lot more nipples than you have...
No, you were looking at people wearing lipstick.

This is no more or less embarrassing than someone getting a tattoo of $current_lover_name. Today we share digitally that which we did physically.
Don't be so down on yourself. I've take plenty of nude photos of you through your bedroom window.
Well, I thought it was really just that easy until I realized that the reason nobody had ever taken a naked picture of me was because I was ugly.
Don't feel so down on yourself. I've taken plenty of naked pictures of you.

If you don't want your nudes to end up on the internet, don't send them to other people.
Better yet... don't take them in the first place.
Cute... Facebook pretending they don't have nude photos or a naked composite of everyone already.
I know they "claim" they will not keep the pictures, but only a hash of the image. But do you really trust Facebook that much?
Won't take long before the police will pay Facebook to ID the corpses they find.

You saw wrong. The President is not an orangutan, orangutans are intelligent creatures.
You obviously didn't order a video camera using Alexa or you would have proof on camera.
Yes, office security for being an Amazon customer. Maybe a security guard to oversee what the Amazon guy is doing.
I hope he's an Amazon affiliate security guard. No other company is allowed to touch your money.
