How would this affect you if you are using Github as a OAuth provider? Does Github mention under what conditions they are going to take away someone's username? No code? No OAuth? No activity?

It has gotten considerably faster in last few years. I'm using SLT 4G with an average speed of 30Mbps.

But the religious groups are a protected class. Religion is something you choose. By that logic, it would be possible to discriminate against "Christians", "Muslims", etc.

One of the reasons I'm using Uber is that it's quite safe. Otherwise, most of the times you try to get into a cab, they try to rip you off. There are rigged meters, long routes, switching bills when you are paying, etc.

I posted about our small medical app about 6 years ago. So far we've been,
1. Started a company around the medical apps (http://www.medicaljoyworks.com)
2. Managed to create a revenue stream and released more than 12 apps in the medical education field (Some completely new apps and some sub specialty apps of the original app idea)
3. Employed several full time people through out the years - in four different countries.
4. Our apps have been downloaded more than ~4 million times and been in the top ten medical apps around the world continuously.
5. Have been featured in many prominent blogs and medical college study guides (Also few research papers on medical education using gamification and pilot programs from universities)
6. Released more than 600 case studies in English and Spanish. (We are on the process of translating everything into French, Italian and Portuguese).
7. Doing quite good on revenue/profit and about ~200 content creators are working for us on contract basis right now.

Anyone know whether they used watson APIs to create this bot or used the original watson codebase (with IBM collaboration)?

It could be a competitor of someone who is using linode for their hosting. Rather than attacking a single server which would be easier to track down, it's probably easier to attack the whole network.

In any case, there is one question remains. How do facebook defines a "million dollar" bug if the security team is not aware of the damage it can do. Since this is not the first time this bug was reported, did they actually give a big bounty to the first person who did the initial report(Given that it can lead to this much damage)? Or just another small bounty saying that it's not a very important security flaw.

Just make sure that if there are any launch daemons plist files, those should be root:wheel. Otherwise "launchctl" won't load those daemons.

During the Presidential Election of Sri Lanka (2015, January), there was a huge Volunteer supporter base on social media for Maithreepala Sirisena (The candidate who won the election defeating the previous president). This was mainly due to the fact there was no media freedom and the traditional media was hugely biased towards one side.
It was quite interesting since the official tech teams of the candidates are there as nominal roles. They were just using online advertising and maintaining FB pages, etc - nothing more.
