ROFL. Please provide proof they remove accounts based on partisan politics! Except for that case that they removed an account based on partisan politics!

And that's the last time anyone buys cyber insurance from Zurich. What's the point of cyber insurance that doesn't cover ransom wear? Just a useless waste of money.

Next time you are in Singapore, go check out the Park View building. Make sure to explore the statues outside and go into the ground floor and be amazed.

Everyone is all for things like this when it's their side beating down people they don't like. But then when it is used to attack something they agree with they all suddenly get outraged. Very few these days seem to like ideas like freedom of speech or a "market place of ideas". Seems every one needs a nanny as long as the nanny is one of our guys.

Indeed they do. Some high end studios install balanced power. Which is more involved than just a power pole.

That's what a secondary MX is for.

The s stands for simple.

Even a stopped clock is right twice a day. That's it. Never stop believing!

Statistically speaking (tally up the dead for example) the biggest threat people face in their lives is not from any terrorist or criminal, but from their own government.

No. Bitmain is selling the pickaxes. Coinbase is the tent where the gold miners take their nuggets to sell.

Not that this is any good, but at least in the US the state pays for the surveillance. Here the businesses have to foot the bill for who knows hoe many unending requests. If you thought it was hard to make a viable tech business in Australia before, well you can forget all about that now.

It's more like if Microsoft and FB were in bed with the NSA. And then they sent you the bill for your own surveillance. And if you didn't pay, then sent you to jail.

But don't forget these fools whose pants constantly fall down can do horrendous damage as they run smack bang into the modern age. And they are unlikely to "move on". They are more likely to wreck everything, and then when they fail, try again but worse.

The thing that makes me most despondent is, you just watch them all get voted back in next election.

What your statement misses is that the problem is confounded by most people simply not believing it. They will believe that "people do fucked up shit to get more resources", while simultaneously believing that government is good, central banking in necessary, the money system is sound, the commercial banks are solvent, voting works, the justice system is blind, the wars are necessary and so on and so on.

And people who point out the truth of this corruption are derided, ridiculed, called a conspiracy theorist, compared to David Icke and so on.

I would concede you your point if people en masse really did think that Icke's statement was common knowledge, but it is clearly not. The myths that keep the common person conforming to the powers that shouldn't be run deep in the psyche.
