Re:Taking Equifax to Small Claims Court on Tuesday January 23, 2018 @08:09PM (#16219486)
No, the author didn't win $8000, because the judgement is suspended for 30 days, where Equifax can appeal (which they most certainly will, especially since the judgement was from a Pro Tem). There will likely be a new case in superior court, in front of an actual judge, who will realize the plaintiff could not prove any actual damage.

Also, taking a photo of yourself during a court hearing to post on your blog promoting your company is probably not a good idea considering photography is banned and it can get you charged for contempt, even after the fact.

Update: Author has taken the photo down, although it would be nice for him to provide an update to his readers saying as with all small claims cases, the judgement is suspended for 30 days and as such, he didn't actually win anything yet.

Anybody having issues with the Linkedin API?

It seems like the developers just pull the plug on various services from time to time without telling anyone. Over the last few days its been the relation to viewer (related-connections) service. Then the developer forum is completely full of spam developer.linkedin.com/forum/. Anybody know what's going on here?

Re:NSA Spying Scandal Could Cost U.S. Tech Giants Billions on Tuesday December 10, 2013 @07:51AM (#6880400)
I find it hard to believe that data is safer being stored outside the United States - it's probably more susceptible outside the US to be spied on than inside.
