Thank you. This was the most constructive reply I've received. I do acknowledge the issues raised by OP; my quote: "...exposing and criticizing the very issues you mention." I read the original comment as a generalization tha

I honestly don't feel/think I am being defensive here. I've even asked for correction if I am wrong. I'm not asking people to "guess" what I might be thinking, hence the discussion.

Correct me if I am wrong, but you appear to believe that because I stated we have the freedom to have an open and critical dialogue around these issues - something one is unlikely to have in N. Korea, etc. - that I am implying we do not hav

No one is claiming that it invalidates the others.

To group the US in with the likes of N. Korea and China is dishonest and inaccurate. If the US were run by either of those governments, you would not have Jon Oliver, Washington Post, etc. exposing and criticizing the very issues you mentio

Of the hotels I've viewed, it appears the images are hosted on TravelNow, which (I believe) is owned by Expedia. If that is the case, they are probably using EAN's API for part or all of it. http://developer.ean.com&#x2

> We are all adults, can't we just sit down and talk and sort out issues? I really wish this were universally true, but many of us deal with the wildly different personalities of our co-workers and bosses. This leaves some uneasy

Yes, but that doesn't imply they're justifying a financial cost. It could be that they need to justify creating a new repo and figuring out how/where to host it.

What if I want to have this authentication process on my email account itself? :) The only other option (soon to be available) is SMS. Seems a bit too limiting and maybe not completely practical.

Hmmm... 8GB max? That doesn't cut it for the amount of claims data I generally deal with. Any rationale behind that limit?

You've obviously never been to Coeur d’Alene. It is a vacation destination for many up here and I don't think there anyone would consider it a haven for neo-Nazis.

Regarding this Submit Bill section: Maybe I'm just overly paranoid - having dealt with medical claim data for years has re-enforced this though - but isn't it walking a fine line with HIPAA to accept individuals' procedure co

This seems to fail when people do whatever they can to keep that person from merging and, sometimes, resulting in minor accidents.

What is so well-designed about the site? I'm no designer and I am not being cynical - I'm genuinely curious because, to me, the site is very similar to many others I have seen today. It's possible I don't have an eye for

The ones with the people walking around outside or working at the cafe are fine, but yes that sleeping woman one makes it seem very creepy. Poor choice by the design team.

"I'll get into these points more later on, but it's important to understand what is happening." I assume the author will be adding and updating this over time. This may just be a start.

I have to say that not only do you have a very good product/service, but I am constantly impressed by your engagement in it and apparent commitment to your customer base.

I was questioning the accuracy/legitimacy of your assumptions around what "[m]ost of the English-speaking world" think.

I don't necessarily disagree with some of your points, but you are asserting your own opinions as fact. Do you have any sources to support this? I personally think there is a distinction and it is important to be known.

It's not entirely clear from that entry whether he worked directly for the CIA or through a subcontractor - which, I think, is a distinguishing point Nrsolis was trying to make. Any other sources that indicate he worked directly for th

Criticism, disagreement, and debate bring about more awareness on the topic and generally invites people to derive their own thoughts and opinions on the subject. For that you should be thanking him rather than shaming them.
