Each morning I want to know whether the day will be warmer or colder than the day before. It seems like such a simple question but the best either Google or Alexa can do is give me today's temperature, expecting me to complete the research on my own.
Two unrelated people can have a matching set of DNA markers, so false positives are entirely possible. For that reason, all DNA can do is give you some leads, then you still need real evidence to prove that you have the right person.
In order for facebook to do that, they'd need to hire a few hundred million people
That doesn't sound impossible, only expensive. Instead, Facebook chose to cut corners, betting that it would save them money over any fines and lawsuits they might have to pay.
Why should they not be allowed to lose that bet?
Now we're going to say they need to be spending MORE time looking at our posts?
If Waze is sending traffic down a residential street, have that street rezoned to commercial. It would raise the value of the land, bring in more tax revenue, bring in jobs, and bring people closer to places they need to go.
Traffic isn't good for residential areas but businesses love it!
Almost all of the US has clean air, except for the biggest cities. And the pollution there is primarily car exhaust, not businesses.

No matter how good it gets, someone will always sue, claiming it isn't perfect
Tesla is betting that the $5,000 per vehicle that they are charging for the self-driving capability will bring in more revenue than the cost of lawsuits when the technology fails. Sometimes they win the bet and sometimes they lose the bet. This is a good thing because it gives them a financial incentive to improve their technology.
Absolving them from liability because "nothing is perfect" only invites apathy and technological stagnation.
I don't think we want companies tracking and who entered their store and what they looked at.
That's what exactly salesmen do whenever you walk into a store, only instead of storing the information magnetically, they store it in their own grey matter. But I like your way of thinking--let's ban salesmen!
If the screen breaks and you no longer need the fingerprint lock, is there a way to reacquire access to the phone without paying Apple to replace the screen?

Not all of our posts, just the public ones.
If I tried to post an ad for illicit content in my local newspaper, the editors would catch it. Why can't Facebook do the same?
The ones who vowed to leave the country if Trump got elected.
Did any Republicans leave the country when Obama got elected?
You're describing a republic, not a pure democracy. Oh the irony!

Not just him but anybody who has or is currently being abused.
Yes, please continue.
As in employers can't legally hire laborers at any price? (This is the definition of an economic shortage.)
Or as in employers just don't want to pay market rates for labor?

Let's put it to a public vote and find out! Democracy is still a good thing, right?

What has the IRS been doing the last two and a half months? Not load testing their payment servers, that's for sure!
Wouldn't they like to have broadband too?
Sure, just raise the standard deduction so most people pay no income taxes. Then throw out the tax tables and make it just one tax rate, say, 50%.
Regressive taxes ought to be illegal anyway. There's really no good reason for them to exist, only bad ones.
This patchwork of laws will make it tough for national ISPs to enjoy economies of scale, and easier for small mom&pop ISPs to compete with them.
So what's the downside?
If so, they could pump that waste CO2 into biodiesel reactors. Plastic to fuel!
You're asking what could go wrong with showing a little leadership?
How is a non-user different from someone who is neither a user nor a non-user?

What definition of "general welfare" are you using that excludes payments to poor people?
You'd have to strike the welfare clause from the U.S. Constitution (Article I, Section 8), or the 10th Amendment, to turn welfare back to the states.
