Technically you are pirating.

This article reminded me of this classic:

Right now they don't even account for the factories in its territory...

That is a valid defense.

But he had plenty of opportunities of doing something about it.

Fortunately Electron apps don't have this problem, since their UI is GPU accelerated.

Interesting note.

All aboard the Chrome train.

> It's also OSS and it is much easier to surface security bugs for Linux than for Windows.

Shouldn't then the number of bugs decrease much faster, since they are easier to find? Unless they are introduced at even a greater rate than the ones in Windows.

And it has MORE reported CVEs than Windows:https://www.cvedetails.com/top-50-products.php?year=2018

It's about increasing the costs to the attacker.

Now a Windows/browser zero-day requires months of research and can be sold for $100k+.

This argument is like saying that "vaccines are not necessary because as we can see, few people get infected"

The problem is integrating it into the existing skeleton. Our arms are not just glued to the body, they integrate with the shoulder.

Where do you attach a third arm?

This guy complains, but he is the one who bought a Internet connecting thermostat. Darwin effect at work here.

10 years later, millions of percents higher, still waiting for the final collapse to zero.

The article explains why, because sometimes this kind of thing is needed and good:

> This reasoning is why, for example, a lawyer can send someone a letter saying their client will agree to settle a lawsuit if certain terms are met.

Read the emails carefully, and remember they were written by lawyers. It didn't seem to reach the level of criminal blackmail to me. Experts quoted in the article agree.

If they do however publish the picture everyone talks about, I'm pretty sure they will be destroyed just like Gawker was in the Hulk Hogan case.

To use your own argument, "child porn being illegal didn't work for stopping child porn, did it"?

The second huge fallacy (you are also making it) is that the government wants to ban crypto, but is afraid of saying it and comes up with all kinds of contrived tactics.

Well, in that case embedding child porn on it will not help either, would it? I was just highlighting the massive fallacy of parent.

No, the easiest for the government to destroy blockchain is to just declare it illegal.

> Returning to our analogy, the publisher of a best-selling book might announce that the first letter of every line in the book can be interpreted as a sequence of pixels that represents a pornographic image of a child. Can the police then arrest owners of the book? Common sense suggests that the answer is no, and most lawyers would agree.

Yeah, I probably visit YouTube to read the comments.

And Giphy.com to admire their logo.

Or until the user switches to alternate browser like I will if Firefox doesn't autoplay soundless animations.

Doesn't really solve the problem, there are many ways of bypassing that, from having a small screen in front of the lens playing fake video, to hacking the firmware.

Many other things are possible, like breaking into a video surveillance system and replace the actual footage with a fake one incriminating someone else.

For alibi, in the future it would probably be a good idea to have a 24/7 personal body camera which timestamps the video using the blockchain or something.

But a good craftsman doesn't use shitty tools. Sure, he could work with everything, but given the choice...

Your video shows no cloud full brightness summer lighting. Hardly what's considered a difficult setup.

And tens of thousands of dollars of professional lighting.

Ask a pro photographer what he would prefer:

1. a cheap entry level DSLR and ultra-expensive light setup

2. the most expensive DSLR and cheap household light setup

Most would pick 1.

The shipping only costs 1€ because China is abusing the international post system - the shipment cost is subsidized from your own taxes.
