    Segments of the world with different ideological views represented by their governments. If the behavior was blatantly unethical, which I don’t think it is, it would be illegal eve…

    Well, that’s how the other side feels, yes. The closest thing this entire thread has given as evidence of overfishing is that a journalist was killed for meddling in government aff…

    Your comments about violence in America are generally naive. I assume you’re a young person. As I stated in another comment, yes, it’s ideological differences on which we differ.

    All done through the ISP, a related party, having absolutely nothing to do with stalking. Poor argumentation.

    It was on completely ideological grounds that we differed. (Which is also against the HN rules to argue about.) I was attracted to the industry effectively to verify authentication…

    An unrelated third party can’t surveil your browsing without malicious software or hardware intervening.

    Insults in person start fights. It’s only the privacy of the internet that lets you do it here. Kashoggi was a journalist investigating government corruption. The context of reason…

    If you peruse down the flagged comment nearby you’ll see maxbond backhandedly agree that I only care about myself. I’m not one to punch people in the face, but that’s grounds to be…

    I started getting a PhD in device fingerprinting and quit when it became apparent that my views were relatively far removed from most people in the field. I’m trying to say that th…

    Would be nice if I could respond to all of you in one place, because y’all are more or less saying the same thing. In don’t appreciate the personal attacks on my character. It’s re…

    I got out of academic fingerprinting research when I realized I was on the wrong side of the discussion. I’ve just never seen or heard of privacy violations that particularly bothe…

    Do you know the lifetime of current battery technology? Expected years until 80% capacity, etc.? Asking because I don’t know.

    I only engaged you out of an interest in opening and expanding my viewpoint. (Just stating my perspective with no intention of offending:) I went into this under the assumption tha…

    Typically, you can save money by buying the exact same situation that you would rent. Whether or not that exact situation is available to purchase, or if you would even want to own…

    The laws are in place in part because of discrimination. It happens to be Disney in this case. You confirmed that you’re dishonest by omission in your example. The fact that a coun…

    As if any negotiating business isn’t “deceitful”. You’re basically arguing for discrimination to be legal.

    That’s beside the point. There are mountains of controlled evidence that exercise is extremely good for you.

    The graph uses 2008, 2019, and 2022 as indices. This could just as easily be a graph exploring the effects of the pandemic. I doubt Germany’s last tick would be in that direction w…
