    Well I see bitcoin talks by instagram models saying they are bitcoin gurus now too. I'm inclined to think bitcoin is a bubble, but cryptotech is the future.

    This is just offensive. I know so many kids with degrees just struggling under debt and poor job prospects. We need a reformation for universities and their contract with society.

    People probably did. Plus it was ultimately decided by a bloody civil war that still has lasting cultural and mental consequences to this current day. So do you really believe eati…

    The bigger concern is here is the clear link between automation and increased worker mental instability. Will automation lead to more populists revolts ? I don't know but we need r…

    Something like a partial tax might be better. A tax that doesn't affect the meat, the lower classes buy. A much higher tax on the cuts of meat preferred by the upper classes. Ex. n…

    Please don't. A tax will lead to democrat losses in 2018. The sugar tax in philadelphia galvanized republicans across the rest of PA during 2016. Eating meat is incredibly importan…

    Isn't time for facebook to be regulated by the government ? This is just unbelievable.

    I hope Tim Cook watches this, because my respect for apple is tanking.

    Yea I can see this backfiring over the long term. A counter example is Nintendo, where Sakurai was literally recorded, so people wouldn't be confused about the project status and w…

    I really respect this. We need to publically shame and boycott companies that hide their money and refuse to pay taxes. The government isn't doing anything, but we can !

    Google needs to be investigated and broken up. Its beyond time for an investigation and regulation of Google from the united states government. Other countries are already starting…

    Is this the beginning of a myspace death spiral ? I've noticed a lot of younger people moving away from facebook to trendier platforms. Instagram and Periscope? seems to be huge.

    Good. It's time for the us government to also start regulating Google at home for this kind of nonsense.

    You are arguing something I'm not talking about at all. This is obviously a heated topic for you, and as a democrat myself I don't think you are doing us any favors. The hard-left …

    Probably meant the hard-left, democrats call the alt-left the hard-left (ex. clinton, the mainstream media). Republicans (trump, the republican media) are trying to rebrand the har…

    Wow, thanks for this comment. It's hugely enlightening. Its almost like female humans are the ones who desire masculinity in men to be happy more than the men need masculinity to b…

    Hilarious. We also need to put pressure on them to simplify and close loopholes in the 400 page net neutrality document. I think an NRA-styled non-partisan single issue internet fr…

    I think apocalyptic warning don't work well for humans. Competition and inspiration work better. We need to reframe the way we discuss this, because after 25 years its clear the cu…

    At Comcast, we often joke Google is more evil than us. So I'm not surprised by this.

    This is surprising. There is a lot of chatter on both american political sides for regulation on amazon, google, facebook, and apple. I guess this is going to be their big oil mome…
