Can I have one instance of adblock that works for all the browsers on my home network, or do I have to configure it separately in each browser on each computer on my home network?
...Blame is not a limited commodity - you can add blame to the idiots who don't take precautions without removing any blame from those who break in....
Using your logic, if someone uses an armored vehicle to break down the door and go into someone's house, then the homeowner is to blame because he did not have a door lock strong enough to stop an armored vehicle.

There are significant consumer protection laws in place for all transactions made via credit cards, and almost zero consumer protection for transactions made via ACH (a.k.a. debit card processing).
...when there really isn't a cause for immediate concern.
It all depends what one is concerned about. Is maximizing disk space down to the last possible byte important to you? Or is performance in accessing random data important to you? Or is wanting to keep artificial limits imposed by monitoring systems important to you?
.
Once you determine what is actually important to you, then you monitor for that parameter.

To think that we have discovered all there is to know regarding life forms would mean that we already know all there is to know in this field.

...while insisting that their goal in life is to get you a job.,,,
The goal in life of a recruiter and recruiting agencies is to get the commission. No more, no less.

The candidate is nothing but a warm butt, and the job opening is nothing but a cold seat.
The recruiter''s goal is to put the warm butt into the cold seat, and get the commission for doing so.
So what should its new name be?
I have to wonder what other data from your smartphone that hotel key app is collecting and sending on to "the cloud"...
Bullshit! Just because the business of Silicon Valley are funding and endorsing republicans doesn't mean you have to vote for them.
Your reading comprehension needs help.
I [purposefully] did not say anything about having to vote for anyone.
I did comment on the apparent fact that the amount of business donations seems to be used to determine how an area is leaning politically.
...More like "democracy is fundamentally undermined" funny.
Yup.

People who only vote because they heard about it on Facebook (or via that stupid sticker people wear) shouldn't be voting.
People who think they know (based upon personal preferences) who should or should not be voting, should not be voting.

Facebook is in the business of cataloging people so that those people can be sold to whoever wants to pay Facebook for the goods.
If you click on that button, you'll be added to the collection of people that Facebook can sell to politicians and their PACs.

Exactly.

Why not multiple NFC payment methods?
I applaud CVS and RiteAid for working with other retailers to provide an alternative to what I view as Apple's heavy-handed lock-in payment system.
