Does the fact that you used to do this when you were younger automatically mean its ok? We've all done our fair share of things as a teenager I'm sure we dont anymore.
I would also like to point out that the onus of what is "creepy" is not decided by one side of the fence. A medium such as AOL back in the days advocated to that exact method of meeting strangers. Some people didn't use AOL that way. The same applies for Facebook, Myspace, etc.
tr;dr - If I feel creeped out that JohnDoe2 keeps messaging me about concerts about my favorite band regardless of if I have NSYNC pictures all over my public profile, its still creepy. The issue with a lot of people isnt that their info is unknowingly public, its that someone is has sought you out and knows some things about you and you're wondering from where and what else does this person know.
Guys, really? Stop being so anti-social and awkward. Its a safe bet to assume there are women in a bar/library/Starbucks. A line you can come up with on the spot such as 'I like those shoes/hairdo/etc' will get you a lot further than saying you were also at locations X, Y, and Z as she was. From someone you've never met, that comes off of creepy, regardless if he/she posts it on myspace/fb/G+.
I go to AC with my roommate maybe 3-4 times a year, along with 1-2 vegas trips. We can easily take in +1000 a weekend playing poker. We then turn around and burn 800 or so playing everything else and having a big meal. Leaving up 200 is usually depends on how reckless we are on the craps table.
Agreed. They say when I beggar is on the side of the road with a cup looking for change, quality of car is usually directly disproportional to the amount and frequency they give. Sad sad . . . .
Perhaps . . . I have yet to see (or care, I have Sprint) how slow throttled users are slowed to.
I am not arguing its a terrible practice, just saying there is a legal difference, which I suspect why AT&T/T-Mobile can do this, between unlimited and throttling.
Where does $20 per month come up? The average Chinese wage is something like $20 per day now, certainly at least for College graduates.
Not that I think you're lying, but if you're going to chastise the parent for pulling numbers out of his ass, you really shouldnt pull numbers out of yours.
That wont work if they were doing any kind of listening/tapping and see you havent accessed any file on said Lolcat volume since you last set it up 4 months ago. Well, they wont even have to have listening data to figure that out.
Also, suicide bombers are rarely repeat offenders so I don't really see how facial recognition would help there.
OMFG, THANK YOU!
I mean, really. This is the true crux of why this sill face recognition is useless. Terrorist train newbies off of the street and throw them into the wild for a ONE time mission. How is face recognition going to catch someone its never seen before???
I am not endorsing Facebook by any means, but thinking Google will do a better job at managing privacy is baseless. How private is Gmail again? Google may do a better job at presenting a front, but these are all companies with little HONEST interest in your privacy.

And?

This is the first thing that came to mind.

Agreed. Hacktivists should fall under the Cybercriminal subset instead of being on equal level.

Nah, this is precisely why the Autobots have stuck around.
Optimus Prime wouldnt allow that on his watch.
But how will be get rid of the munitions???

Its still unlimited, just slowed down.
I cannot agree or have written this post any better.
Worked for OJ . . . well . . . kinda . . . .
Im glad im not the one who saw what the S stood for and thought that was hilarious.

tl;dr - citation needed.
Optimus Prime would not be pleased with this sham of a car . . . .
Mother f*cking snakes!

You actually can image reply in a post. They just use some sort of iframe.

Lol, you guys are crazy.

Well, thats only an average. Me and B. Gates aren't quite in the same tax bracket.
^This.
The majority of people have a rather sad IQ. Why would I follow them off of the cliff?
Probably, but they did put a link to NSA in the summary.
