It never will be. Tennis tournaments take place on private property and you agree to certain terms that ban you from "transmitting match data" by purchasing a ticket and attending. The tournament can throw anyone out that they ple

I like to think about the "Sharing Economy" kind of like the shift from physical servers to virtual servers. A similar set of principals come into play when you try to make better use of excess memory and CPU cycles VS when you tr

I think that is an interesting point. I have always found "site.com/view?postid=1234" feels lazy vs. the alternative "site.com/posts/article-title". While there is a relatively small group of people who might poke around with the URL parame

That's kind of one of the three legs of the article, that it shouldn't be rape for two 17 year olds to have sex and similarly it should not be a sexual crime for them to send each other pictures of themselves. Both of these "crimes" are cle

I understand what you are trying to say. I am curious though what you recommend as a monetization strategy if you take that route? I suppose ad revenue is always the old fall back, but I would imagine that for a lot of the content out the

I would be interested if statistical data gleaned from DNS makes it's way into any other service areas. DNS would seem like a useful way to rank the popularity of web sites, I am sure there are some interesting enhancements that could be ma

I think you are still missing what I meant. I think it's a Content vs Pornography distinction. If we wanted to test it, I think the question to ask would be are they blocking explicit text as well, say erotic stories, or even just swear wo

From Facebook's standpoint I would imagine that these are viewed as completely independent policies. On one hand Facebook does not want to censor discussion, on the other Facebook does not want to host explicit images. The distinction that

Coming from a single person certainly. Coming from a court though, it would imply the court's judgement which would seem a little bit different.

The article doesn't talk about a personal judgement of artistic merit, but rather a previous court ruling (“Early Circuit law in California held that obscene works did not promote the progress of science and the useful arts, and thus cannot

Okay, like I said, I still agree with the sentiment of the article (Which is pretty much entirely quoting other people). I just think that it is a little hypocritical to pen an article calling out abusive comments in the blogger community a

I don't disagree with the general sentiment of the article, but judging from this quote it would appear to be a two way street: "A lot of [commenters] seem to be socially inadequate, pimpled, single, slightly seedy, bald, cauliflower-nosed

The above comment was addressing the lack of variables, not the lack of true inheritance (a single level of inheritance is not really inheritance at all, simply applying attributes en masse). What the comment does address is the lack of var

This article comes off as being both disingenuous and a significant exaggeration of what is actually happening here. I think that saying that "Facebook doesn't actually log you out" is overstating what is actually happening here. The fact i

Does your mother refer to you as "Doctor Popular"? How about your best friend? How about the telemarketers that call or your internet provider?

Really?? It is exceedingly clear in the Terms of Service that you link to, where is says to "use your full first and last name", that the name "Doctor Popular" violates the terms of service. I think it is pretty clear what Google is trying

I disagree, I have no expectation that my personal friends will be taking measures to ensure my privacy, I have not paid them money and signed off on a TOS that says they will take measures to protect my personal information. So if someone
