These websites will soon find out that it isn't enough to just ban US users. Since US users can simply use VPN/proxies their legal requirements (if there are any) are not met. US users can still visit the websites.
Yes, it is hypocrisy, because those "fundie Christians" have abortions too. "Fundie Christians" are people who messed up their own lives so badly that they needed to be "born again". Too bad for them that isn't possible.
That explains it. The idea lacks common sense. What kid is going to wear a wristband constantly and not take it off? What parent is going to ensure that is happening? The wave solution is much superior.
Essentially what the corporations want is for people to only user the Internet via locked down ("approved" or "secure" devices). These devices will only have cloud based storage available and everything will be streamed from servers and the consumer will only need to pay a monthly fee for all this goodness. If you don't think this will happen, think of the children, or the terrorists, or the terrorist children, or security, or whatever the problem is this week.
More fake "innovation" from the MIT Media Lab. When have they actually produced something that might be useful? And I call baloney on the ability to identify non-verbalized words. Complete BS.
How are they helping? They run a massive corporate spy network designed to shove ads at people. That wastes tens millions of dollars in electricity. So stupid.
Microsoft has been pushing this Xiaolce since 2014. Complete utter failure. Microsoft could fire 80% of their workforce at this point and no one would notice.
Who is "they have"? There are thousands of these companies now. Are you going to contact each one? You don't even know who these companies are. You guys don't get it. The only way to stop this is to ban data collection completely.
"The BAD thing would be if Amazon sold that information to someone else, or had poor data security and the information leaked."
They already do share that information with others. Also, how many more hacks do you need to hear about until you realize that companies aren't keeping your data secure. You guys are hopeless.
I knew someone would bring up a "bank". Guess what? Your bank definitely shares some of that information with all their corporate partners. People are naive.
I don't get what people are upset about. What data did you put on Facebook that you thought wouldn't be shared? Don't you assume the information you put into a website is going to be shared by that company?
This is terrible. Did you know that 102 people die in car crashes every day in the US? And 1,300 people die from smoking? But yeah, they found 200 instances of bacteria in labs last year. Time to panic.

So who is implementing tariffs? Is it government or companies? Please enlighten us.

This is a joke, right? Please tell me this is a joke. I am rapidly losing faith in humanity.

Yes there is a LOT wrong with paying for carbon offsets. It is just the rich paying to get out of doing what is right. Stupidity abounds.

Yeah, they have failed in both Fi and Fiber. Why not fail as a utility company too?

Smoking is a terrible habit.
Grindr still works fine.

No, you are just dumb.

Ah ok. If people would only listen to Stallman we would be better off. The only good data collection is none at all.

You shouldn't listen to idiots on the Internet. You learned a valuable lesson today.
I prefer leech therapy and blood letting.

People aren't looking for state-of-the-art documented protocols or secure messaging. They just want to chat with their friends on Facebook.
I like it. This way I can tell what UI element I am about to touch before I actually perform the finger press. This is genius.
If you aren't American, or British, then you must be an alien from another planet! Look everyone! I found him!
