MIT administrator dusts off their hands…

“Problem solved!”

Currently, PopOS although I’m not really that enthusiastic about it.

What? Why would you choose that over Baptist Church of Missouri SynodOS, you heretic?

Then they would have to remove the various hooks in the Settings app that actually call and open the Control Panel.

How many are there? I can think of several (advanced mouse settings, advanced network settings, printer properties, date & time has a callout back to the old panel…)

Windows 10 came out nine years ago, so they don’t seem in any particular rush.

Yeah, but ISPs are rich and VPN providers are not. The most recent numbers I can find for Cox (2020) show $12.6 billion in revenue.

But can it run Crysis?

Satya Nadella, Microsoft’s CEO, “has taken on the responsibility personally to serve as the senior executive with overall accountability for Microsoft’s security,”

Err. Wasn’t that already true? He’s chief executive officer, not chief some shit that doesn’t include security officer.

resolve it in whatever way CF deemed appropriate

CloudFlare deemed the upgrade to Enterprise service appropriate.

Will you be able to buy Google Wallet gift cards with cash, and charge up Google Wallet so you can make POS and online payments?

Because I suspect that was a main driver of Google Pay.

But, the guy admits that what they were doing with the domains was expressly permitted in the “Enterprise” class service. If it was expressly prohibited in the “Business” class service, then they set themselves up for the shakedown.

First of all, congrats! Your business must have become pretty successful. How exactly did CF decide to “ask” you to switch to Enterprise?

Maybe…

* You violated their terms of service…

I wouldn’t say Cloudflare is innocent, here, but this business handled Cloudflare the cudgel that was used to beat them. They admit to doing something with their domains that was expressly prohibited in the service they were paying for.

Legally unassailable!

The song is from the perspective of the company, not the consumer.

You labor under the impression that they would only track & keep data if the user was logged in.

Who changed the username in the on-board OnStar system? Did you think to perform a full factory reset on the car’s electronic systems, before selling the car? CAN you?

I’m an IT professional and I am not sure of that at all.

Perhaps. There is a lot you can do to present the right appearance w/ respect to financial transactions. There’s not so much you can do when companies are exchanging data about your routine activities behind you back. Or they assume it is about you, who is going to hold them to account? Nobody.

we don’t need to worry about lions eating us

Someone didn’t read the line item in the EULA.

I wonder how selling the car impacts the data stream? If you could show that the automaker and LexisNexis aren’t properly handling the transition of the car’s owner from one to another – effectively penalizing the original owner for the actions of a subsequent owner – there might be a legal angle of attack to assert damages.

We’re headed rapidly toward a social credit system, but run by our corporate overlords instead of government. To quote The Stupendium:

You seem so surprised, what did you expect?

We’re thinking outside of that box that you checked

The terms were presented in full to inspect

You scrolled to the end just to get to “Accept”

I also have the Humble Bundle version :-)

I don’t really do Android gaming any more, the Shield K1 is long gone and my cheap-ass Chinese tablet is mostly for Newpipe and other Android-only media consumption.
