"what confidence level can you have with 169 out of 5 million?
The 169 sample size in this case, with 74% of respondents making choice A over choice B, gives a 99.9% confidence interval that if you polled the ENTIRE population, between 63% to 85% of respondents (a majority) would make choice A.

Your argument about insufficient sample size is invalid. Ask a trusted friend who knows stats.
One doesn't need to "poll the majority" to be able to make statistically sound assertions about a group. Do you think 50% of manufactured hard drives are run to failure to determine MTBF?
claim: "a majority of people are right handed" naïve rebuttal:" WHOA there... we gotta individually count 4 billion righties before you can make that claim!"

First, disproving "psychosis" is not as broad as disproving "mental illness."
Second, a study that fails to find an association does not prove the lack of an association, as the summary title says. Imagine this: if I sell refined sugar, and I want to suggest it is not associated with tooth decay, I fund a _small_ study to test the hypothesis "sugar causes tooth decay." The study is too small to conclusively prove the hypothesis, and I can report "study fails to find link between sugar and tooth decay."

Like the farmers who sold their farms to oil barons for a fraction of the true worth because they didn't understand oil and drilling, these owners stand to be cheated out of the true value of their land... which carries with it rights no one else in the whole world has.

But wouldn't the development costs of a monitoring system come out of this quarter's profits, and therefore this quarter's executive bonuses? What's the executive downside to data loss... still nothing?

An economist is walking through the park with his son. "Look, Dad! There's a $20 under that bench!" Dad says, "Don't be absurd... if there was, someone would have picked it up."
no one ever seizes power with the intention of relinquishing it.
Said King George III about George Washington:
The actual resignation of his command, having made peace between the civil and military powers of the new country -- and, in an emotional ceremony, bidden farewell to his officers on December 4, 1783 -- took place in Annapolis, Maryland, on December 23, when he formally handed back to Congress his commission as commander in chief, which they had given him in June 1775. He said he would never again hold public office. He had his horse waiting at the door, and he took the road to Mount Vernon the next day.
No one who knew Washington was surprised. Everyone else, in varying degrees, was astonished at this singular failure of the corruption of power to work. And, indeed, it was a rare moment in history. In London, George III qustioned the American-born painter Benjamin West what Washington would do now he had won the war. "Oh," said West, "they say he will return to his farm." "If he does that," said the king, "he will be the greatest man in the world."

doesn't the hard-working small business owner, who is now getting death threats and business disruptions, have a really good libel case?
He was appointed to Chancellor a year later, and became head of state when Hindenburg died.

Some will. Others will be happy to lease, since any connectivity problems are then with company equipment.
