But holding a small businesses reputation hostage is a dicey business model.
And when dotcoms get so big that they cam lobby for favorable laws / rulings then the world becomes a scarier place.
It seems like they'd want to be close together. Unless they hate each other for terrestrial nationalist reasons. But once you're on Mars, you're a Martian. You're not coming back to Earth. So why not make friends?
If it's racist for a person to say that black people look like gorillas, then it's racist for an algorithm to say so too. The definition of racist doesn't change depending on what you apply it to.
A sovereign Hawaii wouldn't last a week. That's more deluded than the red state secessionists who think they'd be better off without the blue states subsidizing them. It would be interesting to see them try though.
There used to be alternatives to the big ISPs, but they've all been anti-competed out of business. And the US doesn't break up monopolies anymore, so not much chance of the situation improving.
It's clear that Google is operating on what they believe is their best interest. Obviously rolling over for the feds would be a PR nightmare. I'm not comfortable applauding corporations for protecting their bottom line and neither should anyone else be.
Regardless, PR has much to gain from statehood and little to lose. Hawaii would be a 3rd word country with no health care (basically the Philippines) without statehood. PR's territory status gives it some protection, but just imagine getting treated like Cuba in the '50's. There's not much for PR to complain about.
Hawaii has gotten quite a bit out of the bargain. Statehood? Take a look at Laos or Cambodia or the Philippines and then tell me that Hawaii has now profited immeasurably. Even Puerto Rico wishes to be in Hawaii's shoes right now and they'd give up their most "sacred" landmarks in a heartbeat to do it.
It's not politically correct but I agree. There's nothing interesting in Hawaii's native culture that deserves protection. A culture with no art or written language deserves to be forgotten. There's just nothing there.
Totem poles? Ok that's a "Brady Bunch" episode I guess but pure speculative superstition with no objective merit. 20th century cave paintings if you ask me.

Exactly what I was thinking. CoffeeScript has 2x the hits on Github or SO as TypeScript making it the clear front-runner.
You mean bundling a browser with an OS? Or copying Apple's UI? Eradicating polio doesn't balance that karma for you? Really?
Aside from a few decades of prosperity following WWII things have been pretty rough for 99% of Americans all along.
This will be better than skeet shooting because skeets don't drop loot when you kill them.
No, Rosa just sat on a bus. She never really said anything.
If corporations are people and money is speech, then Uber could be a modern day Martin Luther King.
I like your outrage, but I live in Asia, which means I can't see Netflix. *NETFLIX* - how about extending some of your outrage to me?
The odds of being assaulted by a fracking rig crewman in those areas are 2000% higher than in other areas.
They couldn't give her retractable claws while she was under?

If an outlet is exposed in a public place, assuming it's fair game seems reasonable to me.
It looks about right to me. Margin of errors and whatnot but it gives the right picture.
Piratebay keeps track of uploaders. What's stupid about that?
And I never realized why they live in the sky, it was because of climate change!

The Louisiana Purchase took place without consulting the natives to that area. Should we give that back too?

Ancient Greeks had great art and literature. Great culture. Hardly the same situation as Hawaii.
