So your argument is that if you want to live as a relatively typical person in society you have to do certain things? And therefore you're being forced to do them? The only way one can be forced to do anything in our society is at the hands of the government: it is the sole entity vested with...

Did I hear this correctly? He thinks mopping a floor and locking the door puts someone on the same level as an OCR monkey? Who is then supposed to be rewarded as much as an engineer or executive? What is this bleeding heart liberal bullshit?

Is there an amnesiac fog rolling through the forum? Or is the Apple Derangement Syndrome just particularly acute today? Google and Apple have an almost identical process for how this data is handled and anonymised: it is collected as stated in the patent, assigned an anonymous...

If this "scandal" teaches us anything it's this: read only the headlines, piss your pants like a nervous retard, cry til you dehydrate, and then quietly go back to your lives knowing that all such data is properly anonymised by both Google and Apple. You're welcome for the last part. Sorry...

ITT: people who don't know what a hipster is.
