Where do you see anyone saying anything about punishing people based just on accusations? That's not something anyone in this thread is advocating for.

It actually wasn't that particular line that made me think they were selling personal information, it was mostly the other three points in that list which you seem to be ignoring: * Each of Onfido’s and/or Provider’s third-party v

how is that different from what the blogpost said? edit: to be clear, the blog post has listed, among other complaints: > Onfido may disclose your personal information to an actual or potential buyer (note "potential") which yo

Then why do they have all those incredibly questionable things in their privacy policy? What makes them "trustworthy"? I've never heard of them, but from reading this blog post it seems like yet another evil company trying to

No, i didn't say that, nor did the post. You keep making these absurd leaps. Privacy.com advertises themselves as being private. I expect them to be private. They're the ones who chose to hinge 100% of their marketing strategy, al

I think the ask was pretty clear: not to share confidential identification information with sketchy companies that are clearly sharing that information with everyone.

the author of this blog post appears to be disagreeing with some people's attitude and explaining another view of the situation. They are not imposing on anyone's freedom of speech or (as far as I can tell) intending to. They are

I bet it would change if we started locking them up :)

So the people who funded the crime should just go free?

What would that entail? Do you think their investors, who have profited off the harm they've done, should face any repercussions?

Is there an API? I'm didn't see one on the home page. If not, what makes these servers "cloud"?

This is pretty transparently a law to keep people from collecting evidence of bad police behavior. There's been entirely too much of that and people are starting to question the unaccountable armed gangs that roam our cities. To fix pe

this comment would probably be a lot strong if Tesla didn't have such an abysmal safety record.

wow, you got me. The fact that I can't personally purchase and own one of these humans means they're not slaves. As you know, the definition of slavery definitely includes something about slaves being bought and sold in a public m

the original title was misleading. It implied they are not slaves.

No, the disgusting euphemism is still live on the original site and was allowed to stay up on HN. The submission correcting the disgusting euphemism was flagged off the front page before this submission that we're on with was submitted

All good, I edited my comment to shuffle the quotes around which should help. This site is hell.

Typical incoherent right wing rant. What are you even trying to say? Slavery is good?

Why do you think it's okay to pay people $1 per hour? The federal minimum wage, well known to be a joke, is still $7.25

Nor would I. I was sarcastically making fun of the incredible brain rot on this stupid website. What's being done to these people is monstrous and the monsters who profit off of it will never know even the slightest discomfort, not to

yep, slavery definitely isn't an age old American tradition, it's China's fault!

the original article title is misleading: it implies that the people doing involuntary labor aren't slaves.

You understand we're not just talking about putting people in jail, right? We're talking about FORCING them to work? From the article: > The ACLU also found that more than 76 percent of incarcerated workers surveyed by the Bure

Do we have a list of companies who's products are made from American slave labor?
