What I gleaned most from the article(s) is that it's becoming increasingly important for all of us in the tech community to take a stand ourselves along with TOR to promote online anonymity in our companies (& possibly even think a

That's what I like about the mind of an entrepreneur- the ability & desire to innovate. San Francisco has through the roof high rent? Well, why not innovate & live in an RV? An innovative way to overcome the problem of containi

Could not agree more. Well said! The idea that the state is God is a rabbit-hole leading towards totalitarianism and the government being the one to pick the winners and the losers. Crony capitalism thrives in a system in which the governme

Totalitarianism is on the rise and the mass surveillance age is proof of it. It could also be an observation that we the public bought the lies of safety and security that was being fed to us in erecting all of these government programs. I

We know we have a problem when transparency is largely demonized. Allegations of "terrorism" seems to be bringing much benefit to government. I saw a movie recently from the 1980's called "They Live!" I noticed that

This is a great way of holding the banks accountable and asserting fairness in the citizen's fight against the corprotacracy that has a chokehold on our nation at the moment. If the banks that have received huge amounts of taxpayer mon

I am taking two classes at the moment and the only option the college offers for them is to take them online. (One is supposed to be a hybrid but only in theory.) What I have found is that the workload in one of these online classes actuall

God has made it possible for me when it should not have been possible at all. Somehow, God proves that He is real to me in that against all odds I keep going. All of these answers in this thread that I have read are great answers for doing

This is something that has hit my consciousness only recently as a result of the gun debate (3-d printers are being used to manufacture magazines). Since then I have checked out some uses for it on YouTube and have seen everything it used t

I have home-schooled kids and have planned to start my daughter in Code Academy. Knowing how to code is a leg-up in the digital age. However, it's not for everybody. We still need those with basic trade-skills who seem to be getting kicked

Personally, I have observed this becoming more of an issue related to the times that we live in. Let's face it, America has been so ingrained with the survival of the fittest mentality for so long that finally it is sinking in. Until people

Look for Microsoft to try to squash those in open source who are already nicely serving up quality office products without charge. Could this be why Oracle stopped working to develop Open Office (who btw allowed you to not only open but als

I have used Ubuntu since 2008. I have seen it grown increasingly more user friendly over the years. I have always been impressed with it's stability and would never go back to running Windows. If you want something that is easier on your eq

It is amazing the ideas out there. A one time use URL... Why didn't I think of that! With the code open source, this should catch on.

It is only through the responsible use of freedom that people can continue to remain free. Freedom used for selfish ends leads to bondage. History has proven over and over again that in cases when self-serving attitudes spread throughout th

Dennis Ross is my congressman as he is based in Lakeland, FL. I am also pleased that he is one of my LinkedIn connections. It's a small world. Good job Dennis! (Yes, I voted for him, fyi.)

A really great idea. I have been befriended by a native pastor in Kenya. His son came down with something unexpected and had to go to the hospital. The hospital did not want to let the kid out until he was fully paid up and he couldn't pay

Something anyone working on a startup idea should bear in mind. You may find similarities out there to what you have vision to do once you get started working with your idea. However, it is helpful to realize that just because something is

When I was searching for a domain name for my startup idea, it became very evident to me rather quickly that a number of domain squatters have used the dictionary to snap up domain names. Let me first say that I really don't have an issue w

View Your Mind (VYM for short) is a great brainstorming tool that is free software that anyone can download. It would be one available tool that a marketer could use for their brainstorm sessions. I thought maybe someone else out there may

Although it may be seen as a little unusual, it is nice to see someone who has succeeded financially pay thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars of their own money in order to inspire, encourage, and strengthen the spirits of chi

In life there are often short-term gains that can be made by someone either lacking in principle or who simply fails to exercise it. In simple terms, in this world there are always going to be temptations to travel down a road that in the e

I believe that one reason why things can get overcomplicated is because often this has proven to be profitable. Why did it cost millions of dollars to create a pen in space when a pencil would do? Obviously, someone benefited greatly financ

The article points out reasons as to why many of us are leaving Google for other search engines that protect our private data by not recording our search information. Startpage for instance does not track your private data. You will not hav

It definitely crosses the line to ask or require your employees to access their private information. In cases such as this, employees are being treated more like company property than as free individuals. That's not cool.

To me the article speaks to the frustration of past funding models giving way to new ways of monetizing creative works. The gateways that have been necessary for works to be promoted are changing from an executives sitting in an office some
