If all anti-virus softwares started to list any installer with an "Opt-Out" procedure as "Potentially Unwanted Program Installer" it would put an end to the habit of pushing shit down the throat of users.
The problem is not so much people competent with tech as people that don't know left from right on computers and just clicks "Ok". They suffer from all that crap like a new browser installed as well as changed homepages and search providers and then they scream that they don't understand their computer.
Number of hours working and effective work are two different things. It's what you achieve that matters.
What baffles me is that there's a salary threshold for overtime at all. Only thing that matters shall be hours exceeding normal hours.
In some cases there may be two levels of overtime pay as well - like where I live where overtime is 1.5 or 2.0 times the hour pay for overtime hours. No ceiling on salary for overtime pay, but there's some union agreements on total number of overtime hours that may be worked.
What about the Truecrypt successor Veracrypt?
I see that this is essentially going back to what they did with MS-DOS. It was essentially overlooked that people upgraded DOS to latest version on their old machines because it at least did mean that they were tied into the Microsoft environment and would therefore purchase other M$ products.

In an election you have to go for the one you dislike the least overall, not the one you love for one particular question. But in the US elections money and belonging to one of the two big parties is more important than representing the voters.
At least until the voters realizes that it actually matters if they vote on someone else.
It's not blood - it's red transmission fluid.
That's a completely different issue and a question of immaterial rights. Not a question of banning on the reason for being morally questionable.
I wonder how many games that will end up having hidden content (easter eggs) with some questionable material not visible when the game is approved.
Banned games? None that I know of where I live (Sweden).
Of course - there are people crying that this or that should be banned for moral reasons, but unless it's classed as breaking some law like distribution of child pornography or being a trojan it's not going to be stopped.
No man is an island if he's on at least one mailing list.
