So in other words, you and the GP define "smart" as "agrees with my politics".
No. It has zero to do with politics as much as all of the above being proven, documented crooks. I don't expect anyone to agree with my political views, but i kinda expected people i regarded as smart to accept facts when presented to them. I was proved wrong.
It can be argued that yes, they were. The US has a long history of censorship and attempted censorship of the internet: CDA, COPA, DMCA, COPPA, CIPA, DOPA, COICA, SOPA, PIPA, CISPA, the USITC requesting site blockings... i wish i were making those acronyms up.
In the sense that the organization in control of root name servers will no longer be under government authority. Would you feel the same way if it was Russia instead of the US?
That is complete bull. The closest to a tax return Trump ever disclosed was his PFD form submitted to the Federal Election Commission mid-year, where he listed about $360 million in yearly revenue. Revenue, not income. His actual income we'll never know until he publishes his returns, but it will be way, way below that figure.
Bad news for a man who built his campaign about how being really successful as a businessman qualifies him for office.
Of course they do. But they still pay. No one likes paying taxes, but that's a far cry from sympathizing with a loudmouth who flat out declares he pays no taxes because he's smart in a nothing less than a presidential debate.
That really caught my attention during the debate, specifically the "you don't pay income taxes" "that makes me smart" exchange. You'd assume most blue collar workers who do pay a shitload in taxes would be pissed by that line of thinking.
You should really google on populism. What Trump brings to the table is what the rest of America (continent) has been suffering for the past 15 years, sans Canada.

Has that ever been enforced? Just because it is plastered on a EULA doesn't make it legal.
You can't because this "problem" is completely fictional.
Funny, i had a chance to play with a iPhone 6 which was experiencing this same issue just this weekend. Must be seeing things.
No. The point the GP is making is that you get to replace it with a different Android phone, with dozens of vendors offering very competitive models.
Seriously, how can you fuck up the touch experience on a touchscreen device?
Huh? How is it hard? You just buy an unlocked phone (Amazon has them by the truckload), go to your favorite carrier, buy a SIM and pop it in.
I find it hysterical that people believe in chemtrails in the first place...
This is true. Trump as a president is poison, but with any other candidate than Clinton we'd be talking about a landslide Democrat right now.
It better be. It is useful to rush through ones daily chores before the battery dies.

Hey, it's on the internet. It must be true.
The problem there is that they are mixing up surveillance issues with speech issues; the one is distinct from the other in some very important ways.
While i get your point, the two concepts do go hand in hand. You cannot have free speech if you know you're listened and afraid of what might happen.

You should read what Reporters Without Borders have to say on the matter: http://12mars.rsf.org/2014-en/ .

...but this is bad how, exactly?
I have intentionally destroyed friendships because of people I was "friends" with having Facebook and google spyware installed on their phones.
I guess they're still weeping over this. You sound like a lot of fun.
For God's sake, have you ever been to Cuba? I have. Twice. Last time i visited i had several offers to trade for my combs, shampoo and ibuprofen.
There's a good reason people still try to flee the island to Miami in makeshift rafts and not the other way around.

Boy, they sure are smart then!

Have you thought about what might be wrong with your world view that prevents your beliefs from matching up with objective reality?
Yes. I usually regarded Americans as more intelligent than this. Maybe i'm dead wrong.
Unless the language in question is PHP, of course.

At what point did reporting the facts become "onslaught against Donald Trump"? I mean he's running to be president, it's no gangsta rapper catfight.
This. Honestly, all that's necessary with Trump is to publish what the guy says on record on every public appearance.
