#12I stopped reading Ars Technica when they gave Trump an F on technology issues and Clinton an overall B+, including a B- on "privacy and security". I mean, how much more partisan can you get than that? The woman was under investigation for leaking classified emails and using an unprotected email server for fucks sake. When a media outlet does something like that, I just can't take anything else they report on seriousl…
Anything not-pro-clinton gets downvoted without explanation on any social media platform I've seen, including HN (which is supposed to be less biased, more objective, and superior to the other networks).

What came of the investigation?
Republican fanatics keep missing the part that comes next, or claiming that the lack of conviction is due to the system being rigged.
And of course no mention of Bush/Cheney and the private email server saga.

Bingo. Promises, for Trump, are fulfilled upon announcement, and then forgotten. The examples are legion.
Yeah, most billionaires have no idea what they're talking about. All luck. Yup. /s
Donald Trump would have more money now if he put his inheritance in an index fund.

Oh come on, do you still need to pretend to be a victim? Aren't those days over now?

0) That wasn't Ars' analysis, that was their reporting. [0] was the one that did the analysis.
1) The analysis/grading was based on policy positions.
2) You're just wasting your keypresses if you honestly can't tell the difference between reporting someone else's work and their own analysis.
3) The actual report card for those interested [1].

what would the email server have to do with policy on technology like net neutrality and infrastructure and a lot more? how come trump supporters reasoning for anything doesn't go to past the word 'emails'? It's her versus mister 'cyber'. perhaps he'll appoint baron as head of 'the security aspect of cyber'.

I don't think calling someone a liar is the same as saying they don't know what they're talking about

#20I haven't followed this deal that closely - but I believe it had significant antitrust headwinds before Trump said anything. Generally, if ATT wants to buy anything thats large - I would be concerned about a decrease in competition.
