Its no secret that Google as a company is VERY left-leaning. Its also no secret that Google got rich from prioritizing search results in a way that benefits Google. You do the math.
I'm giving you concrete examples that prove its not just only about gun control, there's also something else going on, which is a fact Liberals simply can't grasp so you just switch to calling anyone that happen to disagree with your brainwashing retarded. I'm sorry that you feel offended because I used facts to burst your peecee bubble.
Sure the manufacturing is done in China (just because its cheap) but in many cases the internet equipment companies themselves are actually American and European.
London also has a MUCH higher stabbing/knife attack problem than New York, and both have far tighter gun control and MUCH higher homicide rates than Arizona which has about the least restrictive gun laws in the US.
> No one's going through a collection of compnay policies looking for a sitting duck to attack.
Really? You apprently haven;t ever worked at a a left-leaning company like Apple or Google. Give the HR department one sniff of your not marching lock-step to any part of their rabidly peecee agenda and they'll be actively looking for any reason they can find to get rid of you.
Just more proof that the typical liberal mentality is that of a clueless passive-aggressive moron without even the balls to put their name to their own words.
So now Apple are going to be able to directly affect peoples lives entirely based on some undisclosed criteria made up in secrret by a bunch of hardcore liberals. What could possibly go wrong? http://fortune.com/2017/10/17/...
That so-called imaginary NRA "trick" you're talking about...
so is it not true that you can only legally own a 10 round magazine in CA?...and if you carry a gun in your car, you have to do so such a way as it is effectively useless for self defense? (the ammo and gun have to be locked away seperately right?). Seems to me like liberal-driven gun control is far more already happening in CA than just an NRA mind-trick. Given you clearly believe your assertionn, you might want to rethink who's actually doing the brainwashing thing to you here.
> The most popular method scammers use to try to get people to pick up the phone is called "neighborhood spoofing," where they disguise their numbers with a local prefix
The originating phone company must by definition know what line or cellphone the call is actually being made from. It boggles my mind why phone companies even (continue to) provide this functionality in the first place. I very much hope that it becomes illegal soon.
I personally only ever buy physical media or DRM-free downloadable content, I mean apart from eliminating any dependencies of having to be online to access your library, this is far from the first example of some egotistical megacorp arbitrarily denying people access to stuff that they have already paid for. Microsoft, Sony, and Barnes and Noble all come to mind as other examples and I'm sure there are many more.
Most physical media is far more easily rippable than drm-protected streaming, which is actually legal according to fair use, however try arguing with Apple that they need to provide DRM-free downloadable versions of any movies you buy.
I seriously wonder why many people still fall for buying streaming-only stuff and why people don't finally get a clue and en-masse avoid buying any service/product where they cant have local DRM-free copies.
No, they really didn't. Keyless Entry / Go was introduced first by Mercedes-Benz in the S-Class car series in 1998. It was being pretty widely used in quite a few luxury brands before 2003 when Tesla was founded.
I'd be amazed if that was true. I'm gonna guess its consumer pricing is at least 5X over what it actually costs Apple to go from zero to a boxed product on their store shelf.
Why do you even believe that the consumer price of a product has anything at all to do with the cost of its manufacture? It is all and only about demand and what inflated pricing Apple can get away with.
I'm sure the government (both federal and state) would give Apple far more incentives beyond the lack of tariffs, if it meant building industries in states that would welcome it and hirling local workers. Besides, why do you believe that the sales price of a product has anything to do with the cost of its manufacture? The price of something is all and only about demand and what they can get away with.
China is not the only other country in the world. If China stops selling stuff to the US, Americans would just do business with somewhere else. I'm not saying the price would necessarily be as low but probably close, given the large volume of demand and likelihood of multiple sources of competitive vendors.
Because we live in a country that is founded on free speech?
why is it that So-called liberalsare so quick to advocate complete removal of such rights just because someone happens to have a different message than the one you like?
> first world Democracies so far have a fairly high success rate in terms of not sliding into authoritarianism
As a Brit now living in the US I would have to disagree with you on that. I can first =hand tell you that the UK and nearly all of the EU is a complete nanny state.
Wait so your actual argument is "lets not think or analyse the actual problem, we should just mindlessly copy everyone else"? Wow. That's the most braindead anti-gun argument I've heard yet.
No he's telling you to look at the actual data and not paint everyone with the same broad brush. Two concepts that liberals/democrats have never been good at grasping.

What does this have to do with tech news?

Yawn. yet another spineless passive-aggressive lib/dem troll making entirely emotion-based attacks on people while hiding behind AC.
Cheap I'll give you but build quality? you clearly have no actual first-hand experience of Low-budget Chinese manufacture.

...but that would be a suicidal business move if they did, at least for as long as he's President.

You got that round the wrong way. The government need to fear us.
