That said, if we'd stop electing these yahoos we could stop these kind of "lesser of two evils" choices in the first place.
Decent, smart people are not big enough assholes to want to participate in the electoral and government leadership process because it is so horribly broken.
We can't compromise privacy to make it easier to catch criminals. Police have caught the bad guys doing old-fashioned police and detective work for years and years. Criminals are, fortunately, capable of stupid mistakes that will expose them. All the emotional sob stories law enforcement trots out to support their belief that taking away our privacy and freedom is a good thing are a sign of the desperation they feel and the lack of confidence in established police procedures they experience.
Google didn't even screw up, it worked as intended.
the compromised communications system tried to work by "security through obscurity"-- it used publicly-visible websites that were indexable and searchable, and didn't realize that once one was compromised, you could look at what was on it, and use well-crafted search terms to find them all.
Who thought "security through obscurity" was a viable option when people's lives literally hung in the balance?

It's pretty obvious who the asshats in the community are, now we just need to hope that the social justice warriors don't go overboard and maybe we can get some useful, positive change.
What if they just provide their application in a virtual machine instance? That way they can write to only one OS but run anywhere the hardware supports.
You can thank the FCC for allowing companies like ClearChannel to buy up radio stations, homogenize them. It seems to me, that from there, they just drop an iPod Shuffle down on a table, add a few DJ breaks, and call it done, playing the same 50-100 licensed songs from there on out, except with an old "King Biscuit Flower Hour". In just a few years, they turned radio from a living, thriving medium to a time warp of 70s garbage, and made the medium all but worthless except for talk radio and pirate stations.
They do that because fewer and fewer people listen, which means fewer ads sold and at lower rates. They try to keep the cost of their content in line with revenues so they remain profitable. Expect broadcast radio to all but disappear in a few years.

WTF is wrong with people? Why do they insist on foisting their own insecurities on everyone else?
What could possibly go wrong?

LOL, and that is why I do all of my porn watching on a FreeBSD VM with a locked down Firefox which doesn't allow scripts or plugins.
No way in hell I trust a bloody porn site to not be infested with malicious shit.

So now slashdot has brought it to the front to publicly shame the individual?
Trial by media... shame on you slashdot.
Welcome to the Internet. Have a good time!

Is it too much to ask that Trump stop encouraging his supporters to violently attack reporters and Democrats?
Real bullets that actually work were shot at Republican lawmakers having a ball game. One was seriously wounded.
Was that Democrats' fault? Or was it just a lone nut?
Can you cite elected Democrats who have advocated, supported or encouraged violence against Republicans since Donald Trump was elected? Please share.

So it seems like it's up to Axentra to fix their poorly coded Piece Of Shit? But do they really even care?
This kind of sloppy programming needs to come with easy-to-litigate civil remedie$ and then maybe it will stop.

What does a history major say when greeting new people? "Welcome to McDonald's! Would you like fries with that?"

For me, it's a distraction. I just turn it off.
Well, of course he would say that.
Not if Defense Distributed was a major campaign donor.
