Well, it certainly didn't take long to figure out what you're all about.

It's funny when you engage with someone who demonstrates a lack of sensitivity, and less than three comments later, they're sending you links to an anti-feminist rag that has little credibility and a transparent agenda.

Oh, for fuck's sake. Your post was basically a bunch of whining about how people can't talk about women's issues, because men have it bad too, or something.

Here's the thing: sexist, patriarchal bullshit is harmful to men AND women. So the "sexist status quo" is damaging to everyone. If you actually are interested in learning about how sexism is damaging to men (which it sounds like you are), you'd probably be interested in a documentary by Jackson Katz called "Tough Guise."

Submission + - GSM/GPS tracking device found on activist's car at Circumvention Tech Festival (torproject.org)

vivaoporto writes: A GSM/GPS tracking device was found this March 4 on an activist's car attending the Circumvention Tech Festival in Valencia, Spain, a festival that proposes to gather "the community fighting censorship and surveillance for a week of conferences, workshops, hackathons, and social gatherings, featuring many of the Internet Freedom community's flagship events"

They are now asking for the internet tech community for help in order to identify the device. Below verbatim is the plea for help published on torproject website. The fine article also contains pictures of the device.

"On March 4th, 2015, we found a tracking device inside of the wheel well of a car belonging to an attendee of the Circumvention Tech Festival in Valencia, Spain. This was reported in the local media.

If you have information about this device — please send information to jacob at appelbaum dot net using gpg.

The device was magnetically mounted inside of the left wheel well of the car. The battery is attached by cable to the tracking device. The battery was magnetically mounted to the frame of the car. The tracking device was similarly magnetically mounted. The device itself has an external magnetically mounted GPS antenna. It has a very simple free hanging GSM antenna. The device included a Movistar SIM card for GSM network access. The entire device was wrapped in black tape."

You don't have to file taxes in the U.S. if you don't get a tax ID number or SSN. Another commenter stated that getting an SSN is not required initially.

If the kids ever decide they want to move to the U.S. for school, work, or any other reason, they'll have a much easier time if they are citizens. I would say, talk to a lawyer first, but definitely consider it.

Yeah. You're a citizen on the internet, too. We like to say that when we're talking about the rights of citizens on the internet ... but it's also true of our responsibilities as citizens as well. Functional adults in a civilized society don't go around threatening to rape people, not even as a "joke."
