This is crazy. I've seen it done plenty of times by accident in the past, because people don't know how to use BCC (and its hidden by default in many clients).

Facebook won't be able to install the necessary measures to prevent the moderators from saving the videos onto their own machines.

A lot of the bad content is highly desired by criminals and can even be profitable to sell on the dark web (e.g. child abuse).

Its pretty useful for students or those who want to play with the tech and not sure if they will be committed to it long term. Thats a pretty big marker with all the deep learning hype.

That. I see tons of posts of under/fresh grads trying to use microservices, k8s and TerraForm for their tiny < 100 qps apps.

A properly designed monolith on a dedicated server/VM can easily serve tens of thousands of users just fine and will be far easier to maintain than this mess (plus way cheaper as well).

The main advantage of those tools is when you have a number of distributed teams and you want to scale to millions of users. For nearly anything else, a far smaller setup is what you want.

Yup, the book talks in detail about those.

and it has US warranty.

When I had an issue with my MotoZ (which I got through same-day Prime delivery), Motorolla told me they won't cover it because the IMEI said its from India and can only be covered if I send it to India.
