For most users the cloud is more reliable and more accessible than anything they'll ever be able to do in a SO/HO environment.
The problem is that medium sized (1000+ employees) seem to think this too.
And then have no backups, version control or anything else because some PHB said 'put it in the cloud, and stop arguing with me.' to the IT engineers who wanted local & remote backups, version controls, redundancy of hardware, network and power, etc, etc, etc.
But then the ISPs get bought by the media conglomerates who also own the movie/music companies. I'm not sure where that all ends up, but probably some ugly meetings.

I don't like windows, but LOVE PowerCLI for managing VMware environments. And HATE using pyvmoni.
I get to troll everyone.

Who bought whom doesn't really matter in terms of where they are, now does it?
illegal notices (no valid proof of claim) are ... illegal.
This is a good idea in theory.

It's i squared.
I'm sure they'll just come from the FBI.
Well, it's kind of the same thing - just from 2 different entities. One without guns, one with.
Also, it's a consequence of FBs business model.
Some people are now aware that they're being tracked, in detail, and don't want it anymore.
They'll still use FB to see what friends are doing & share a few funny things, but that's it anymore.
More & more people aware that *they're* the product, and stop using it.
Well, they claim that their factory, in the last 3 months, has been producing at a rate of 500k vehicles/year.
In 1.5 years.
they are very good at protecting it
Just like the FBI. Who have never been hacked. Well, except for that year of exposure that was just reported.
"Encrypts metadata to hide it from unauthorized network observers"
That means WhatsApp the company encrypts it so they can decrypt it whenever they want.
And, yes, they are still collecting it.
Just a reminder. WhatsApp is still collecting all the metadata.
Who, to whom, when, where.
That matters a LOT.
FBI: Encryption is bad for us.
Hackers: We know, here's all your data
FBI: Well, shit.
everything in moderation
The problem is that most Americans don't really know what moderation is.
Ignorance/poor education/watching too many commercials lead to 'moderation is only 3-5 oreos per meal, right?'
Pretty sure that's what Apple was fighting.
A court order that said they had to say something (in software).
It was posted yesterday. March 31.
Says the guy on slashdot....
Is groupthink needed in /r/kerbalspaceprogram?
No training costs? LOL. That's called programming a robot. But, yes, it could be scaled much better.
You do have maintenance costs. Which over 3-5 years may become more expensive than humans.
*maybe.
$15/hr is about $30k per year. Robots are usually a lot more than that. And require capital, not cash flow.
Most *crops* have a 90-100 day growing season.
Cache it starting when you go to work. Watch half when you get home.
Repeat the next day.
What drugs are you on? It's roughly half a growing season.
OF COURSE they're going to make changes.
