Clearly headlines play the biggest role here.

Sorry, it seems the Buffer article gave me a Halo here.

I'm not really sure. At least, this would help others poaching from your company, as they know exactly what your employees are getting?

Yes, I do understand the story is about Macbook iSight. Was just sharing what happens with another vendor as this is relevant and related.

Nice.

I own a Logitech C920 Pro and a software called webcam settings allows me to easily turn off the lights. If this software can do this, so can a malware.

Also, a malware can be designed to click quick snaps when there is no keyword or mouse activity for a specific period. This can help the malware go unnoticed without controlling the light. Want to take it to the next level? You can use the mic anytime to estimate the user's distance from the system and then enable webcam accordingly. I know this would not be very accurate, but possible.

Isn't the thread in breach of HN rules?

The title of the post is: "Big: Know Your Company grows up and moves out."

Shouldn't it be exactly the same?

Knew about most of the stuff but "Cycling in Kolkata" was a new for me.

What they don't understand is that, the more you restrict/ban stuff, the more people get fascinated and attracted by it.

Most of the stuff does not make sense either. However, it is not just India. For example, gay sex is banned in Saudi arab too.

The point is that finding the the best performing stock each day is just impossible. No Technical or Fundamental study can give you that.

It's just like, I could have been a trillionaire had I invested in Google, Apple, Microsoft, Cisco, Facebook: all in their seed stage.
