    My dad gave me a laptop with games and basic tools on it when I was 2 years old, and i figured that out pretty quickly. When I was 6, I was allowed to use the internet but there we…

    Adb yo, you can remove packages without root. Even then, I do wonder what fragments are left behind. I fear Facebook/Google/et. al are too intertwined with the likes of Samsung and…

    What do you mean? Should refinement equal surface complexity?

    It's because our politicians are hypocrites who use morality as prestige, all the while engaging in the very behavior they decry. I guess there's also less of a paper-trail when pr…

    You think it's irreconcilable for an individual to be okay with farming data, but not with indirectly killing people? Everybody has a slightly different moral compass. Every "good"…

    I can only view like 4 lists of 13 articles each right now. The website directs you to download an app, which seems to be nothing more than a shortcut to a webpage. When i open the…

    Wouldn't modifying the sample slightly, like lowering pitch by a few cents or stretching parts, also make it seem original? Audio is definitely too easy to spoof for it to be a sec…

    Are they the only provider in your area? Every year when my contract is about to expire they tell me my rates will be increasing from $60 to $90/mo., I call in and say I want to ca…

    In addition to competition, there were also safety issues with proprietary chargers. I personally experienced this, when I had an emergency and my LG Lotus was dead. I tried using …

    I don't know any good reason for them not to make ast2 and the battery health check available directly, other than to promote sales and additional door swings at their retail locat…

    ...and yet they comply with ~80% of government requests for user data? At the end of the day, they still have a way to break their own encryption; they just don't want to set a leg…

    I read Wheeler's statement as sarcasm. He said the decision was "tragic" right before that line. It seems like he is implying that nobody likes cable companies, and now they're goi…

    I am not sure I follow your line of reasoning. It is obvious that Kaspersky does not advertise itself in such a way, and the average consumer probably has no idea the company is ev…

    ...or, just sign out of Snapchat before turning airplane mode off. At least that's how it used to work.

    I fix phones for a living and frequently assist customers with calling manufacturers for warranty issues. LG and HTC are the worst, with the most frequent denial of customer assist…

    If how the individual came into possession of the property is a mystery, how is it clear the property was illegally obtained? I would be hard-pressed to prove that many of my asset…

    Then how does God exist? To me, the argument that a creator makes more sense than naturally occurring existence simply displaces the issue. God is then the unexplained, naturally o…

    Yeah, but at the same time... If they want to reap the tax benefits of basing themselves out of a country, I would argue that they should be subject to that country's rule. Really,…

    'Arms dealer': one who sells arms. The point he is making is that, regardless of what is considered legitimate, both this individual and the U.S. government are, by definition, arm…

    Thanks for saying this! I work with phones and it's sad to hear people talk about the ever-widening gap technology places between them and their children. Too many people from youn…

    I agree with you emotionally, but question your argument legally. What, 'is,' and what, 'should be', are rarely the same thing. If government wants something forbidden, it creeps t…

    This is how it sounds to me. I think it is naive to assume Mr. Gates' character is so one-dimensional. He is a critical thinker; I'm sure he realizes the dichotomy he presents is B…

    Precedence is a serious issue in the U.S. While the end result of this case might not be an immediate, radical policy shift, it would certainly lay the groundwork for that in the f…
