Perhaps if you are a company which should have privacy concerns right up at the top of your list of to dos you should not appoint a board member who by all accounts gives not a shit for privacy concerns?
By the by, wouldn't life be the tits if I had no background in tech other than abusing it but had political connections as 99% of my resume and could land sweetheart preIPO deals like this?
I may not be the only one who thinks having three kids and a house in the suburbs either indicates a serious IQ issue or some sort of mental illness is at work. If one can get sold on the yuppie way of life one has already been lost.

You should actually read the first ten amendments sometime. The way they are written
Congress shall make no law...
When the founding fathers wrote this, they intended to for the states to be able to pass laws restricting freedom of speech and religion.
Nonsense. The states have constitutions of their own which guarantee the rights of their citizens. The Constitution of Massachusetts, for example, was adopted seven years before the US version and in many ways is even more protective of individual rights than the federal.
The USPS doesn't throttle the DVD supply to my house - at least not yet. Maybe there will be a Postal Service Movie Delivery System in the future which competes with them. Then my Netflix envelopes will mysteriously take two weeks to arrive from the next zip code. They will come ripped and often broken and mixed in with offers to enroll in the PSMDS if I am no longer happy with Netflix' service.
Yes it does. You will recall that in the end, there was a real wolf who did appear. He ate all the sheep. So if the townspeople had reacted to the warnings not with scorn but by realizing that they were unprepared for actual wolves, their sheep would have been safe.
NASA announced today a competition to find the best epitaphs to go on the tombstones of future astronauts. Current frontrunners are YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR and THIS MEMORIAL ALSO PURCHASED FROM THE LOWEST BIDDER.
It's funny they mentioned Olympic athletes. Those folks are not trained in a school's PE class. Their parents hire coaches and training facilities at their own expense.
If you are gifted at basketball or football (or hockey - in the north), you will reach an age where you do not have to pay out anything and often get money and goods under the table.
Bugatti was Italian, living in France and proposing to build his plane for the French. So it might have been in use against the Luftwaffe in the fight for France. I don't know how the person who wrote the headline gets from there to the Battle of Britian unless the only things he or she knows about the time is that and Pearl Harbor and the bomb.
Once the fluid pool of global investment money was throttled back from the slimy mortgage market, they were bound to look at student loans. Everyone can get them, they are not dischargable in bankruptcy, they are increasing every year, the interest rate is way higher than the mortgage rate. This will be the next source of a financial meltdown.

She is not against vaccines. She just wants safe vaccines. The fact that no vaccine will ever meet her definition of 'safe' is your problem, not hers.

It's really cute how he thinks that NASA is powerful enough to suppress a fundamental cosmological arrangement observable by anyone.
Anyone who knows the origin story of Facebook knows not to trust Facebook.

I'm guessing that the puzzle he just solved was how to finance his retirement account.

Netflix is 100% satisfying. WTF back country bullshit throttled cable internet service are you using?

they were prepared for actual wolves but only as long as they responded and due to the many false alarms they ignored the actual emergency.
If false alarms caused their system to fail, then they were definitely not prepared.
"Boy who cried wolf" ring any bells?

Don't worry. Someone's daughter will post details of the settlement on Facebook.
Should have posted it on MySpace. That way no one could successfully argue it was disclosed to the public.

Its a reduction in stress, not a lesson in tact.

What if the Presidential limo burst into flames and the Secret Service agents started shooting Elon Musk?

That was one of the least satisfying technical videos I have seen lately. And tie your shoes, man.

So what exactly is being violated here?

The faster flying/climbing plane will win 90% of 'dog fights' (sans missiles). Of course that assumes equally trained pilots.
Claire Chennault begs to differ.
The P-51 also shot down quite a few ME 262's because the tactics and maneuverability limitations made the ME 262's predictable.
The P-51 pilots learned to linger near the German airfields and shoot the ME262s down when they were trying to land, slow and low on gas.
It wasn't a Nazi plane. it was Italian
