Trump is a business man, those other business men are his competitors not his friends. At that end of town there are no friends just acquaintances and temporary partnerships. Reality is, for Trump business ventures Net Neutrality is a huge plus and as such it would be really dumb to cripple his and his families future business interests. We have seen the corruption, only 0.0001 percent of business profit with an absence of net neutrality, where as 99.999 percent of business profit with net neutrality. Smart business choice is net neutrality is good for the majority of business and only a tiny handful of business profit from it absence.
If Trump does only one thing, his debate promise https://www.youtube.com/watch?..., then the message for Hillary Clinton would be https://www.youtube.com/watch?.... Of course there is more than just one particular family that needs to be pursued, investigated and prosecuted.
I can pretty well guess what Don Don the incredible orange hulk will do. Don Don angry, Don Don smash. You can be pretty sure he is fairly pissed off about the Republican and and Democrat and Main Stream Media attacks upon him and his family, I think revenge is pretty much all he will have on his mind, run, Clintons, run (there might be a safe place for you in Saudi Arabia with your pals).
So says the mud monkey, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., 115 years after the first aeroplane. Yep, uh huh, sure, http://mentalfloss.com/article..., mud monkey physics. Sorry but your reality will always be based upon your perception of it, as narrow and primitive as it is. Will we go faster than gravity, yes PS the speed of gravity is the fastest that light can go, so speed of gravity is the measure not speed of light. A child with their hands over their eyes, you can not see them, hence they can not see you, seriously your position is that silly. It makes no difference whether or not they can see us in the tiniest detail or in the tiniest thought, we still have our goals to reach and that includes spreading out into the rest of the galaxy, stop allowing your fear to define what is possible.
Cough, cough, they only win, when we stop fighting. Really how much effort does it take to fight. Attack it on forums, every now and again, complain to the government every now and again, join in with consumer rights organisations, join in with personal rights organisation, refuse to buy products that do not serve you, well, do that always, seriously should you allow control over your own life to be treated as an inconvenience.
New actions, fuck up all their surveys, corporations treat me well and I will treat them well, attempt to make use of me and I will not serve you in any way and that includes lying on all surveys, purposefully create misinformation to poison their data bases (http://www.cs.nyu.edu/trackmenot/), it takes little effort. Don't be a fanatic though, just join in, have fun and basically strive to fuck up their schemes and scams. It's not winning or losing that counts, it's how much you make them lose trying to do things to you that you do not appreciate and if they lose more than they gain, then they will stop, one way or another.
Not happy with the Trump/Clinton choice, well, that's fair, there is nothing what so ever to be happy about that choice. Show some courage, show just a tiny bit of backbone and vote third party for a change. What are you so afraid off, has main steam media taught you to clench you anus at the thought of voting 3rd party, oh my God the sky will fall (well, it will for those scammers involved in the Republican/Democrat political cartel). Walk up to the voting booth and show you are a real person and not just a gullible fool and vote either The Libertarians or The Greens, make your mark in this election. I think Doctor Jill Stein is the best candidate in this particular race, I would say head and shoulders above the other two choices but that would be quite the under statement. Vote you conscience, don't vote FUD, fear, uncertainty, doubt, vote like you got a pair, whether that be testicles or ovaries. So walk up to that machines, push The Greens button and watch as the hacked device flips it to Clinton, you people are fucked and are not choosing anything, you are participating in an idiotic charade and you allowed it to happen.
You just do not get it. For some people, a minority, say 1%, cheating is most emphatically winning. Winning for them is all that counts, Ballmer scammed everyone including Gates, the smarmy insurance salesman, who brought nothing to M$ except smarmy manipulative sales tactics. Did Ballmer win for taking credit for other people's efforts, did Ballmer win for blaming others for his own mistakes, as far as Ballmer is concerned, he is rich, he won, everyone else is stupid for no recognising his true genius at lying, cheating and stealing (and in every other way fucking up ie MSN is a major fuck up). We are the ones who should be ashamed for allowing a society that functions around that psychopathic deceit.
Because, as was warned many years ago, M$ is on the path of turning a PC you buy and then buy windows anal probe 10 and install it on there into a XBone and you will be boned, paying double digit licence fees on top of the invasion of privacy for any software that runs on top of Windows (don't forget they can not un-install any software on you computer with each compulsory upgrade, you agreed to it). They are actively working towards blocking software and content that has not paid a windows licence fee, manage to get around the block, no problem next compulsory upgrade they will fix that for you. Windows 10 is FUBAR as a end user operating system.
That is the worse thing you get from the emails, seriously. How about "let them kill themselves until they tire of it", this whilst supply arms to Saudi Arabia, who then supplied those arms to sex slavers, who took over whole towns and cities and lead to, at a wild guess, a million rapes (she even acknowledged full awareness of this and still signed off on the supply of arms and munitions). All this upon the basis of donations to the Clinton Foundation, which uses the money as payoffs for those who have arranged payments to the Clinton family, hundreds of millions of dollars churning over in a pay to play scam. All that and all you can see is the security classification issues, what the fuck. Now remember those sex slavers, how many under-age girls or boys (we have all heard, the US fucking government reported it, they just forget the fucking part where it is US arms and munitions facilitating it, sold with the approval of the US government), got tired of it and killed themselves, prophetic words from the corporate whore Hillary Clinton, if all you can see is the security issue, than you people are truly sick and no longer a human society. No wander an anti-US coalition is forming.
People tend to forget how durable manual systems are. The minds of people, pencil, paper and ruler and you can organise anything. All digital and a major failure becomes a completely unnecessary catastrophe, quite foolish.
Just shows what NATO has been allowed to become with Turkey as a member. Basically an empty arms and munitions sales club with total disregard for how those arms and munitions are used. Supply them to terrorists, not a problem, let sex slavers use them to take over towns and cities leading to a million rapes (let them kill themselves till they tire of it - Hillary Clinton, I guess that's what those under age sex slaves do, tire of it and them kill themselves, no excuse the corporate whore knew exactly what was going on and still allowed arms and munitions to be sold for exactly that purpose), not a problem. Basically just war is good for business, sell, sell, sell.
Boy do you have it wrong. They will keep doing until sufficient people start harassing the fuck out of government to make it fucking illegal. Now that is exactly the way you do it, fuck them, they want to turn your privacy into an inconvenience, then fuck them and there is no better way to fuck them up. Annoy the crap out of your own government until the create legislation to ban M$ from carrying out that corrupt perverse business practice (don't forget to get others to join in kind of essential), remind the politician that their own privacy and their children's privacy is also under threat (can not maintain that private vs public political stance with no privacy for them or their families). Why the fuck bend over and just take it, when you can do something about it, don't win, so the fuck what, at least you tried and annoyed the crap out the arse holes in the interim and nothing stops you from continuing to try, year in and year out. Face it realistically maybe you'll spend an hour a week on it tops, might not seem like much, but when those billion ants start chewing on that elephant, pretty soon you have no elephant but don't forget to have fun doing it;D. You might just be that annoying yapping dog but who cares as long as you are having fun being that annoying yapping dog, grr, woof, woof, fuck you M$,
They could also work on an open programming language that adheres to language principles in math and English, an open translation package, core applications like spreadsheets, word processor, data base, presentation software, CAD, browser et al (to ensure compatibility with data provide by government to it's citizens) basically anything tax payer dollars have paid for should be made accessible for taxpayers to do what ever they will with it. Even defence code, honestly if you defence system can fail as a result of claimed enemies having access to it, then you already have a real problem, security via obscurity is just wishful thinking destined to fail spectacularly, just ask Hillary and Podesta the clowns of scamming;D.
From Google's economic point of view, yes it should all be encrypted. Why, you are wandering, why is it so important from Google's economic point of view, because they want to sell you privacy, they do not want Government's and ISPs to access that data for free, not when Google wants to sell it. Whilst definately a good idea in principle make no mistake there is greed and evil behind it. No free targeted marketing data for you, unless you pay, everything encrypted all of the time except for Google skulking in the background behind 'Google Tagmanager', 'Google Tagservices', 'Google Analytics', 'Google adwords', 'Googleapis', and that crappy advertising company that Google bought, that I have blocked for so long I have forgotten the name of it, basically they have all the resources to access your privacy prior to your encrypting anything, no where near as mr Probe themselves M$ but pretty bad.
Now from the geek side, who could have named his wireless network what ever the fuck he wanted to, including cock sucker mother fucking cunt, all he had to do was turn of SSID broadcasting. Gees, if you can not remember the name of your own wireless network, you should not be allowed to set one up. People turn off network ID broadcast and that should be the default (that broadcasting of the name will always be legally problematic). That's right all of you, that haven't done so, log into your firewall router wireless modem, get into configuration settings and hide SSID and one other I just checked on, turn on client isolation (isolates wireless from wired)
Technically those stories are extremely stupid if Apple is putting them out because basically they are mocking their customers. Those profits do not come from the air, they do not come from other companies and they do not come from non-Apple customers, those profits all come from the pockets of Apple customers, they more they pay for the less they get, the more profit Apple makes. If a customer does not make a effort to cut back the profits of their suppliers, than that customer is a fool. Paying more for something than what reasonable profit margins should allow is just bloody stupid.
These tactics work because what you see is just the marketing, basically the barest bit of PR=B$ to cover over the shenanigans going on in the background. What is going on in the background, offshore tax haven bribes, physical access to young gullible hopeful performers at drug laced parties, campaign contributions, complete distortions of reality in main stream media and as a result actual corporate lawyers writing laws, that corrupt politicians don't even bother to read but vote on them because sex, drugs, and money (all that bloody ugly and lame).
Gees dude wake up to yourself. There are similar rules for things like hot water services (most people don't know that because big kaboom if pressurised vessel explode due to defective pressure release valve, heating water makes it expand) or cars or planes. Basically recall goes out, you are bound by law to be a part of that recall or the device can no longer be used. They tie those rules to provision of service. You can not hook up a recalled hot water service to the water supply, you can not drive a defective vehicle on public roads and you can not fly a defective plane over public or over other people's land, there are also rules for hooking up appliances to the electrical grid. As such you can no longer hook Note7 to the mobile network because of the mobile risk you present. Grow the fuck up, you are not God, you are just another mud monkey and no matter how stupid you might want to be you are not allowed to put the other mud monkeys at risk, even should they want to be just as idiotic as you. So good move my the New Zealand government, New Zealand telecoms and Samsung.
Germany can not sue because the German government itself is criminally negligent because they can block it if they want to. Hence for Germany to sue Facebook, Germany must also sue itself. The German government chose not to block Facebook and hence the German government itself is liable. Facebook for all of it's many, many faults is quite simply an open broadcaster of the content created by others and it is the Germans along with the German government who choose to import that content as well as creating it's own internally. Every government faces the exact same issue. They can force it to be blocked by local service providers and until they do, they are more liable than the open broadcasters. The German government allows Facebook in, their choice, they are just as liable as Facebook. Technically first they have to strive to block Facebook and then they can try to sue Facebook for trying to get around those blocks.
Facebook should also declare on their homepage and as part of their sign up, that only 'Opinions' are allowed and Facebook is only an 'Opinion' social media site and in the most humorous fashion state categorically that no facts are allowed (technically already true for the majority of ads they show, they just lie about that). There is a real difference between, saying that I hate Germans (not true by the way) or saying that Germans should be hated ( again not true by the way, don't want the Germans to sue me or 'hmm' Slashdot;D).
Too thin bezels are a pain because you can't effectively securely hold the phone without touching screen. So balance on your palm pretty much guaranteeing you will drop it repeatedly, so that's why they want thin bezels.
So basically next time there is a major solar flare that will impact the earth, hmm, everyone on that side of the planet in hospital basically dies, hmm, sounds like a plan.
Reality is all essential services managed by government should maintain manual pen and paper systems as backup. Those pen and paper system put the computer systems in place and when computer systems and the cloud goes down in a catastrophe, what the fuck happens when there is no pen and paper system to get them back up again. You could imagine the bullshit. Crap send someone down to the stationers to get pens, papers and rulers, except now they are out of stock and oh look, they can not order any more.
This stuff is crazy, at the supermarket today, computers went down, no problem I had cash but other people did not and well, bought nothing. Cashless society, what do you imagine will happen when the computers go down, which they will, guaranteed 100% they will fail (solar flare, major earthquake, major storm, stupid government false flag computer attack, some other stupid governments computer attack). How many hours before it all collapses, make it past the first 24 maybe, how about after 72 not so pretty outcome and any longer and people will start dying in significant numbers.
You know what, all this crap is exactly what you would expect when two far right wing political parties attack each other for office. That one of the is just pretending to be left wing is actively ignored by the other right wing party because I don't know, what, too much competition for the same campaign donor class. Pretty much neither party gives a crap about the actual voters, they only care about themselves and how much they can milk out of the rich donor class and what off shore tax haven bribes they can pick up for luxury overseas holidays.
As for the emails, oh I get that lie about releasing them. The white house would have censored the crap out of them and nothing would have been released that did not look could. So in future from those lying arse holes you can expect completely fake emails, designed to be released as political marketing and self promotion and all the shit emails classified under national security.
Apple made the smart move when they jumped to selling privacy and unlike M$ not selling your privacy to others but selling your privacy to you. Apple are bound to push that harder and harder and one think likely to be banned at Apple, targeted advertisement because nothing screams absence of privacy, we own your life, like individually targeted advertisements. So basically Apple will hold it's own in the market, basically at around 10% and that is still millions of people, so plenty market there for Apple.
M$ is just going down in a screaming heap and from mobile phones to the desktop, the market share is going down. So either Android or over priced Apple or the M$ Perves (nearly every one is avoiding them, I wonder how M$ employees feel being forced to carry around the probe, their employer controlled probe, well, thank fully I suppose it comes with a vibrate function to make them 'er' feel better).
