We really need to get rid of cops. That experiment is over.

This makes so much more sense. People are so lazy to type in their location that Google had to spend millions/billions of dollars on technology to stalk you and figure it out for you? I don't buy it.

You have a very narrow definition of "browser." Try xombrero, vimb, Luakit, uzbl or good old w3m.

Google can break the Web because they own the Web. It's their platform. Maybe handing it to them wasn't such a good idea.

Anyone who agrees with this hasn't lived in Canada.

Use a block quote or something. Nobody wants this wall of text in the comments.

Does anyone remember why they decided to Digg V4 themselves?

I am doing that by downloading, parsing, rendering and evaluating the HTML and CSS. I'm not giving you arbitrary code execution. Do you want to fold proteins too? I also think this is something Web people overlook. Our phones are _i

I think it goes further than that unless you don't consider the documentation and standard library sufficiently encouraging.

by nilved 9y ago
ActiveSupport does that because Ruby encourages it.

Wow, that's seriously ridiculous. What a strange place.

The semantic Web is, unfortunately, quite dead. Hopefully a JavaScript-free Web can still happen.

Why do you have a hard time reading that? It's generally better to solve problems before they happen. An dead Web isn't coming back, and we are trending very much in that direction.

I've done all of these things since it's my job. I haven't tried Facebook, because I don't have any confidence in the surveillance hypothesis, but my first guess being inapplicable doesn't change the fact that root

If you have root access to one end of encryption, you necessarily can inspect and save it. The way I would do this is by issuing a certificate for facebook.com that I mark as trusted on the device. This will let you do a man in the middle

There's an easy way to verify this: run tcpdump and record it happening. The fact that nobody has done this, instead only offering anecdotes, strongly suggests that these are coincidences or from other forms of targeting.

How is posting it clearly on their website minimizing the truth? As a reasonable person, don't you think that if they were trying to minimize the truth, they would just not include it like everyone else?

Which they are, for listing it at all. Complaining that the text is a slightly lighter shade of grey betrays that.

This is simply disingenuous. That's perfectly legible. Especially compared to the common practice of not posting it at all. I don't see how anyone can be upset at this.

This is fairly ridiculous. I'm once again ashamed to be Canadian.

I agree with this very strongly. I stopped donating to and recommending donations to Wikipedia when my edits were continuously reverted by an alt-right admin. I think we need to start coming up with alternatives, especially considering Wiki

To the contrary, nobody has any morals or responsibility. Dial back the victim complex.
