which means ensuring that women using the platform are able to express themselves freely and without fear.
What about those who are using the platform to express their disagreement of or dislike for those women? Should they not be able to express themselves freely and without fear too? Politics would become pretty pointless if you're no longer allowed to disagree with female politicians.
And what exactly is "fear" ? Why would anyone be afraid of an idiot posting shit? I've been called all sorts of things on slashdot over the years and yet still posting here.
So called "abuse" against black female politicians should not be singled out as a "problem" unless they are receiving significantly more "abuse" than other politicians. Otherwise, the actual "problem" is "politicians are receiving abuse".
However none of this is "abuse", it is negative comments about someone. Who remembers the old saying "sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me"?
Also worth considering is that politicians are by their very nature controversial public figures that will attract negative comments. There are negative comments made about donald trump every day, he's neither black nor female. Negative comments are made about hillary clinton too and she's not black. Infact donald trump probably receives far more hostile comments and empty threats than any other politician today and yet he's not crying about it like a baby.
If you want to be a public figure, and especially go into politics you can expect that people will disagree with you and even hate you. If you don't like that, choose a different career.
Long before the days of electronic communication, and even in the most totalitarian of societies people would communicate illegally in person, and that's always going to continue.
What good is banning the users and groups going to do? They will just move elsewhere... Given that what they're doing is illegal, why not report the users to the appropriate authorities?
MIPS was a performance architecture back in the 90s, and one of the first to have 64bit support. Many supercomputers were built using MIPS cpus at one time.
The move to 64bit could have been a real opportunity for MIPS, they've a tried and tested 64bit architecture that's been around since the early 90s with existing mature support from compilers and operating systems - and yet arm64 started from scratch and overtook them.
Those who forget the lessons of history are doomed to repeat them... Remember "embrace, extend, extinguish"... And don't forget IE6 was generally better than netscape 4.x at the time too.
MS have earned a lot of distrust over the years and have a terrible reputation, this has to be factored into any evaluation.
MS haven't learned their lesson, they just don't like the fact that someone else is now in a position to give them a taste of their own medicine. Don't dish it out if you can't take it.
Apple also have a history of being screwed by their suppliers, recall IBM and their promised mobile variant of the G5... Resulted in Apple laptops still using the older G4 chip and falling further and further behind competitors using x86 chips.
In critical applications you should be using embedded hardware that doesn't have usb unless absolutely required... And even if you do have usb ports, you should be using an embedded os that only contains drivers for the specific usb devices its required to interface with.
Water, power, gas and sewage are 24/7 services too... Not to mention roads etc. You think they're gonna wait until monday morning if a natural gas pipeline is spewing flames into the sky or a sewage pipe is filling a neighbourhood with raw sewage?
Keeping fibre connected up isn't massively more difficult than power cables, you just provide the wire from the premises to a central datacenter or two and let commercial isps provide connectivity to the internet (or point to point lines for business use etc).
Their DNS goes down all the time and the routers they rent to people for $10 a month lose sync and overheat constantly, and you can't even turn off their advertising of your network. Not to mention the video, ugh.
So don't use their DNS, run your own or use a public service like google for dns... Also don't use their router, infact never use an isp supplied router as they will always be the cheapest bulk purchase chinese garbage they could find.
When the ISP DNS goes down your service will actually get faster as there will be less congestion on the network.
You get what you pay for, as in a service that "can burst up to Xmbps"... If you want guaranteed bandwidth, you pay for dedicated transit which costs a lot more.
It's malware, but more commonly described as "a rootkit"...
Traditional malware gets itself executed by someone who isn't aware what they're executing, a rootkit is intentionally installed by someone who has already obtained privileged access.
Actually Linux is more widely used overall, windows is only ahead of linux on desktops/laptops. Total worldwide instances of the linux kernel are likely to massively outnumber windows.
Many of these contracts are unenforceable just as in your example, and the companies are well aware of this but they're added in because they know many employees will be afraid of breaking the terms and won't consult a lawyer, so they will end up obeying them needlessly and at their own cost.
The US tortures people in places like guantanamo bay... The US murders people through the death penalties in various states as well as military action...
Clearly the US feels that this killing and torture is justified based on these peoples' actions... But surely the Saudi government feels equally justified?
As to wether either government should feel so justified, we will never know as they are unlikely to publish all the information they have pertaining to the crimes that these people were believed to have committed.
A lot of corporate laptops leak information when connected to other networks, they try to connect to various internal resources and in doing so disclose either the ip addresses or the dns names.

The PA6T was too little too late, it came out in 2007 by which time Apple had already migrated to x86.
Available in configurations up to 512 processors:

Google now gets carte blanche for being just as evil? Wut?
If they're doing it to microsoft - yes, poetic justice.
If they're doing it to firefox etc, no.
If someone from mozilla or opera was making this complaint they would justifiably get some sympathy here, microsoft don't deserve any.

The rich people will just find ways to avoid paying the tax, or move elsewhere.
Taxes mostly hurt and poor and middle classes.

Samsung can...
Commodore also used to have a habit of buying their suppliers to control the entire supply chain.

The connector for the monitor was just a pass through from the wall socket, the psu itself did not drive the monitor.

So how long before these end up being installed in airports?
