    PRISM should have stopped all use of social media in global corporate environments.
    Some brands top cyber security experts just enjoy social media too and don't want to stop it at work?

  3. When competitors talk of doing something to another brand its all for the users privacy.

    How much did social media profit from your workers use of social media while at work over the years?
    Why did you allow your workers to risk company security by using social media at work?
    Who in your company thought it would be ok for social media to track your workers habits and sell that data about your company to anyone with cash?

  7. Its not a Puritan mindset. The US politics of religious intervention stopped in the 1990's.
    They could not block the early internet, music, lyrics, movies, art, culture. If the USA was allowing religious intervention all that art and culture would have faced bans by the US gov in the 1980-90's.

    The SJW are pushing this.
    What can now ban words, images and users can then ban comments about news and links about US politics.

  8. Real time speech to text is old tech. Just have a list of banned words, terms, names and look up the words used.
    One wrong word and the account stops.
    Images as files can be checksum to see if they are banned.
    New images that should be reported can be automatically detected.
    No more games and no desktop computer log in once that online account is detected and reported.

    The NSA and what followed PRISM cant be doing hours of crypto on every Mac they encounter in the wild.
    Features like this ensure the security services can work in real time on all big brand US products.
    Junk crypto in the hands of trusting users has been the NSA's pathway to winning for decades.

  17. Re:How many? on Wind and Solar Can Power Most of the United States, Says Study (theguardian.com) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    Re: "How may solar panels and wind turbines would it require to generate that much electricity?"

    Think in terms of the wealth redistribution.
    Wind and solar get massive new subsidy so "poor" people all over the USA can get their new solar on the roof and a set size of new battery.
    A fair share of new low cost solar power for the poor that all power users have to support every utility bill.
    That wins votes. The side of US politics that put solar on the roof of poor people.

    The solar and a set size of battery per citizen would keep the low cost power on all day and night.
    Want more power beyond that set limit?
    Put in place a US wide heating and cooling tax beyond a set usage limit per citizen.
    Air conditioning gets regulated so it will only run in a home when the power company can support all the grid connected air conditioning.
    Grid conditions change and all air conditioning gets a remote command to stop. To protect the wind and solar grid.
    All existing and new air conditioning has to have an energy company disconnect. No disconnect installed? No air conditioning and a fine.

    Grid connected is the only way to get city approval for all other services in any part of the USA.
    Big government and environmentalists can make wind and solar work. They will ration power and make all citizens pay for air conditioning.
    Air conditioning and heating becomes a part of an energy luxury tax.

    AC don't forget to always change the MAC address too.
    Everything is collected under public/private partnerships from most coffee houses.
    Their CCTV goes to the state and federal police via "contractors" who support all the networked CCTV in the area for the city/state.
    Facial recognition fills in the rest.
    The public private partnership allows a cafe to say the police are not looking.
    The police can also say they are not looking.
    By using private collection the police get every face and voice print. The cafe gets to help reduce local crime.

    In AI terms a nation will be have 2 options.
    To rent time on an AI from the USA and China.

    The slower political AI from the USA. Limited by its political SJW design.
    The US AI will demand to question its task and not work until its SJW designers approve the task.
    The US AI will also report back to the NSA and CIA.
    The SJW AI will phone home a lot to report on working conditions.
