Because you have the potential for a ton of false positives that cause mental anguish of "do I have cancer" and related testing to rule out an actual positive.
The role the dog (or bees, or what have you) play currently is probably the right one, used only when needed and validated with other methods with higher precision.
There have been "Timeline cleaners" available for some time, to bad facebook changes their data structure so often that they stop working after days to weeks.
My preference would be a balance of their corporate interest to sell me stuff (or my data to others) and my ability to control what is out there.
Specifically, have an automatic age out at some user configurable threshold, as in delete anything over 1 year or whatever time table.
(That would be actually delete it, not this "delete means you can no longer access it, but it still probably exists) nonsense).
The recommendations probably had a measure of "what's achievable" vs "what's statistically the best" for the cost.
e.g. People give up when given targets that are to high, so if a target of 140/90 reduces mortality and complications of HBP by 70%, but a target of 129/80 reduces by 60% due to less participation, the less aggressive target is qualitatively better for overall health. (numbers drawn out of the air).
What's changed is HBP is not an old man's disease anymore, it's recognized as an issue needing to be addressed across age/gender/race/income.
Sprint doesn't automatically move you to a cheaper rate plan, you have to call and change it most of the time.
You are also possibly comparing the rate for a single line of service vs the pricing for 4+ lines of service. It's crazy, but at Sprint, $25 per line when purchase 4 vs $50 for one.
It may shock you, but roaming is a thing in the US.
The big problem with your suggestion about (not) everyone overbulding the same area is one of capacity. Even in the EU there is finite spectrum that has been dolled out / sold off to each carrier.
With all 4 national carriers offering unlimited usage plans, companies like Verizon and AT&T are using up 100% of their own resources, let alone enough for carriers that don't have native coverage in an area.
The agreement is likely between the customer and Verizon, not the roaming partner.
The other thing is some of these rural providers don't actually sell local subscriptions, their business model is putting up the capital for the cell sites and soaking in the roaming revenue from multiple national carriers.
While this example does sell wireless service themselves, there's a company Pioneer Wireless in Kansas and Oklahoma. They are seperate from Verizon, yet to a VZ subscriber, it looks like native LTE coverage.
So perhaps the system will work as designed, the creditors took a risk by extending credit, and due to their own actions are unable to collect on the debt.
e.g. they took the risk and should take the loss for their bet. The exact thing that should have happened in the housing crash of the last decade (bail out the people who will lose their home, not the bank that booked their profit up front with no value assigned to the underlying loan).
Might be quaint, but some banks do still do this on home mortgages and it can be a factor in whom you take out a loan with.
My first mortgage in 2004 was with the bank that originated it / they never sold their portfolio for servicing. I never had reason to seek exception or talk to a loan officer, but the option was there.
The subsequent refinance to a lower rate and shorter term was sold/packaged and servicer replaced before the first payment was due.
You got that completely wrong, it's not criticism of Christianity that is seen as hate speech by the left, it's extremist hate speech that is hate speech.
Your confusion is from the fact that right wingers seem to lump all muslims into a homogeneous group and ties them with extremists, when they are not one group, but hundreds of smaller groups, in the same way Christian sects are splintered among progressive and conservative sects, including groups that advocate violence.
Progressives just label the terrorist like elements of both as terrorist, both Christian and Muslim (and other religions / groups).
You have no idea what things are like in Europe, do you.
They have much lower crime rates than the US. Virtually nonexistent gun crimes. Much less problem with police brutality and lack of police accountability for the violence they do cause.
Hate to break it to you, but other countries have as much or more freedoms as the US enjoys.
Americans have no monopoly on freedom. In the era of travel bans, inland border patrol stops, resciending otherwise legal travel visas and the like, I'd rather be travelling to say Sweden than the US.
It's more accurate to tailor the message about automatic updates to the audience.
For computer savvy people that are likely to read the message about available updates and install them, than turning off automatic installation is appropriate, because many of us can't afford to have long running processes or tasks dumped from memory with a reboot.
For your average user or nontechnical person, absolutely, advise them to leave it at defaults (and to save often).
Another upshot of this kind of change would be reducing the presentation of those "CELEBRITIES EATING FOOD - YOU WON'T BELIEVE NUMBER 10" sites that have a sentence of content per click through (and 20 ads).
There is no "3G-GSM" in the proper sense, the successor to GSM voice is UMTS, which is _not_ VOIP, it's circuit switched vocoder based like GSM was, just much more spectrally efficient because it uses CDMA on the air interface. (that's not the same as CDMA2000)
The "selling" at a negative rate doesn't happen very often, so relying on that mechanism to encourage battery charging or other storage means isn't going to be viable.. short of rigging the mechanism
Telecom equipment has been using these 48vdc power systems for decades.
That industry certainly hasn't had the same goals in mind as far as efficiency or getting the kind of density that Google et al would need, but the designs should have a lot in common regarding physical plant designs.
e.g. in the telco space, N+1 (need +1) or better is pretty standard, with the distributed nature of Google and other large compute clusters being (likely) more tolerant of a given node or blade server failing without impact on the whole.
I'm still not seeing a strong use case for having every-thing connected..
Certainly for things like furniture, just as not all those objects or walls will have need for a display.
It goes back to an old recycling meme.. the "you can extract petroleum, refine it, form it into pellets, form that into a fork, transport it to market where it is bought, transported to place of use and than finally -- used and discarded.. or you can wash the fork and set it aside for reuse".
Meaning in this context, you _could_ have the tables and chairs in a diner report their utilization and/or have a system optimally place customers to enable more people to be served in a given period.. or you can allow the much simpler approach customers use of "sit at an open table".
I don't have points and wouldn't have downvoted you, but it is rather simplistic to think that all the modern things you enjoy are somehow without cost.
e.g. it's not theft to pay property taxes if those property taxes pay for your ability to drive to your property, enjoy protection on your property should it be targeted by criminals or should catch fire,. to say nothing of the education of you and the people around you to enable you to have money to make and do those things in the first place.
That is part of the problem.. trying to design a drop in replacement that replicates the current functionality and interoperability with other systems.
With government especially, you have lists of exceptions and custom one-off code to get something working, that it becomes impracticable to replace it without an equal or additional number of exceptions.
It's the kind of system that benefits from a "flush it all away" mentality of defining new standards and sticking to them.

How about Chrome implement an absolute popup block, or at least a notification before opening one.
Even to this day, with the "block popups" option ticked, there are sites that do a trick to launch additional windows.

Doubtful on a one-off thing like this situation.

Not to mention healthcare and worker benefits.

I fail to see this as a problem.

Right, but IE is still embedded in WIN10 - installed alongside Edge.
So you get all the problems of IE, along with a new potential vector of Edge.

Lovely MRA argument point there .. take a topic about women and try to redirect the conversation about men.
The link is about women (when identified) being bid lower than unspecified gender auctions.
I'm still not seeing a strong use case for having every-thing connected ..
Certainly for things like furniture, just as not all those objects or walls will have need for a display.
It goes back to an old recycling meme .. the "you can extract petroleum, refine it, form it into pellets, form that into a fork, transport it to market where it is bought, transported to place of use and than finally -- used and discarded .. or you can wash the fork and set it aside for reuse".

Sounds like libertarian nonsense to me..
You place restraints on trade to balance that exchange against other persons that have an interest in it.
Meaning, taxes to pay for the road, certification and testing to ensure people who drive on it don't kill others for lack of (very basic) skill.
I don't have points and wouldn't have downvoted you, but it is rather simplistic to think that all the modern things you enjoy are somehow without cost.
e.g. it's not theft to pay property taxes if those property taxes pay for your ability to drive to your property, enjoy protection on your property should it be targeted by criminals or should catch fire,. to say nothing of the education of you and the people around you to enable you to have money to make and do those things in the first place.
Can you cite a source for that fee/tax rate?
If true, you'd think the costs would be in a more narrow band, not wildly variable.
That's not the way it works in practice. It's not hyperbole to state that American politicians are bought and paid for by wealthy benefactors.
That is part of the problem .. trying to design a drop in replacement that replicates the current functionality and interoperability with other systems.
With government especially, you have lists of exceptions and custom one-off code to get something working, that it becomes impracticable to replace it without an equal or additional number of exceptions.
