It was programmers working totally on their own ruined Volkswagen with their pesky cheating algo for the emissions test.

So perhaps programmers working totally on their own can make privacy work for Facebook.

Rogue Google employees did a good job breaking up Google's search monopoly, so there's precedent for this kind of roll-up-your-sleeves success.

> breaking up Google's search monopoly

Google has 90% market share still. I'd thus still call that monopoly unbroken.

You may have missed the invisible <sarcasm> tag on the post above.

Hee hee.

I wish I could put "sarcasm" label in a tooltip or something. It would still annoy people to have to mouse over to reveal the tip (I still win) but my intent would at least be explicit (everyone else wins).
