So in your eyes, anonymous FTP has equivalent security to two-factor authentication over HTTPS.

Just to be pedantic, I think that's "clean" or "zero-emissions," since we probably don't actually want a nearby supernova to refresh our uranium supply.

Tell it to the Dutch.

I agree - and actually since the economy is demand constrained, shifting energy sources will be expansionary.

Are you proposing restrictions on what military personal can do with their wages?

Not really. Even without any containment measures, an infected person passes the disease to only 1 other person. If there was a disease as deadly as Ebola, where that number was ~20 people (as it is with measles for example), then I would be worried.

The low transmission rate is why the outbreak has fewer than 10,000 people after several months.

I think that "copyright infringement" and "theft/larceny" are essentially legal terms with specific meanings, while "sex crime" is not. Unauthorized access and distribution of these photographs is sexually motivated, which makes it reasonable to describe the crimes in question (i.e. unauthorized use of a computer and copyright infringement) as "sex crimes."

You do not understand the meaning of this phrase. It makes no reference to the existence of technological barriers, of any kind, to the breach of privacy. You have a reasonable expectation of privacy for a sealed envelope, even though it is trivial to read the contents of that envelope.

How is talking about "the internet" here even relevant? There is a huge difference in the privacy and security of data transfers made through different web services alone, let alone all extant networking protocols.

Someone ought to warn your date that consent means nothing to you.

Isn't this exactly the fallacy described by TFA? There are both risks and benefits to storing data online, while you're remark suggests there are risks only.

Under current US law, obtaining unauthorized access to privately served files is clearly criminal. Nude photographs are of note solely due to their sexual content.

Can you explain why you think it is incorrect or illogical to describe crimes pertaining to sex or sexual content as "sex crimes?"

-1 Has Never Written a Range Check

Any time a trait has continuous variation, there are going to be a large number of genes involved.

At least one result of the study is obvious from first principles - the large number of genes involved in determining height. (Because height varies continuously).
