I'm saying that their automated tools can't tell the difference between 'normal' and 'fake' use. And the fact that I'm still using my dummy account is proof

I don't think that's true. They don't have time to police billions of facebook accounts for 'normal' behavior. I'll friend a few random people. In the super unlikely worst case I'm out $300 but probably so

I created an email alias on my domain to start the FB account. Works fine, not banned. If they get data to sell, probably they don't care. I can run credit card payments on the store as well.

Funny I just setup my Quest 2 today. Made a fresh facebook account with a new email and chose a fake name and birthday. Breaking the FB ToS is NOT a crime. Why would anyone pay an extra $500, and then $180/yr when the worst that can ha

No - lets decide if we want to give this company more of our money before comparing features. They are absolutely using planned obsolescence and the non exchangeable batteries across their product lines and removal of dimm sockets are a cle

The New York Times published the article from a Harvard Professor. Link in the original comment, as is the paper revealing the backdoors. Here is the PRISM slide showing the timing of Apples participation, exactly one year after SJ passed.

Wouldn't buy the iwatch or the new iphone, and I have been a Apple longterm user. Like the motorola 360 better, round design is a huge win and again Apple are last to market with a inferior product. The iphone's main feature for m

Because they know once bitcoin starts getting accepted nobody is going to put up with their ridiculous system of rules or give them a cut out of every transaction. And its tax free too. They just became irrelevant. Makes me wish I believed

This is a nightmare and we need to fight it tooth and nail. Those aren't just cameras, they are networked to a facial recognition database (thanks facebook), which is cross referenced with criminal records and commercial profiles built

I never said AMD silicon wasn't backdoored. Its a solid bet that it is. I don't trust either, but having a intel chipset and processor together on a edge router sounds like a bad idea to me.

I don't agree. The biggest American semiconductor company. Backdoor guaranteed.

They promised new designs that just never appeared, or came too late to be competitive. I remember being very happy with my 4801 units. I could run OpenBSD with OpenVPN and asterisk. Neato back then. I had a crypto phone system in 2007 comp

Well if you really care about security you should run OpenBSD not linux. And it installs secure by default. Just grab the book of pf and write out your firewall rules.

Meh, Soekris was so 2006. Their designs are IMO a bit tacky. And since they use Atom and intel network chipsets, the question needs to be asked... do we trust intel hardware anymore ? I agree intel nics are a bit more reliable.

What a complete load of bullshit for the cameras. This is theater. They have absolutely no intention of ever shutting down the NSA, or restricting them, or deleting one single file in their database... the one that's so huge they had t

These are the best SBC routers on the market. It used to be between Soekris and pcengines, but Soekris dropped the ball. and the enclosures are also very nice too http://pcengines.ch/apu.htm http://pcengines.ch&#

Data collection isn't for advertising exclusively. It builds profiles that can be sold to third parties who will use that information to redline demographics. For instance health insurance companies and banks.
