You want to be able to tell the New York Times, the BBC, Google, your local radio stations, Microsoft, all of the bloggers that ramble online, every book publisher, people who choose which songs to perform songs in bars (or used to be able to choose, before your illiberal Orwellian anti-freedom kicked in) ... you want to define freedom for them by denyin them choice.

Just so we are clear, the GP is saying that the companies above should have the freedom to reach their audiences and customers without being selectively blocked by ISPs.

He needs a mentor that can keep up with him. Rather than focusing on high school vs. college, I'd focus on finding the best possible person to set him down a fulfilling path for his life. That teacher or mentor could be in a University or high school. Putting this kid in any classroom is like handing out the keys to a Formula 1 car. You'll want to make sure that the driver can steer this mind towards reaching its full potential (both in achievement and personal fulfillment).

Exactly. You can't share your Spotify tracks or Netflix que on your timeline without something that monoitors activity while you are on other sites. Not sure why everyone on here is freaking out. If you want to share your life online, you'll have to allow FB to track your life. If you don't want to, stay off FB.
