Yep, we're a bank - let's ensure our maximum password length is lower than the minimum length where something important is being protected like social media history.

Just wondering which stock to invest in :P

The independent have taken ad-farming to new levels - were they bought by Yahoo?

We've almost reached the point where satire === reality so don't worry about it :-)

companies using neurotechnology to subliminally market to people during their dreams

Ad-blocker (PRO) for dreams in 3,2,1.

I suppose having the capacity for lucid dreaming will allow a section of society to resist buying stuff in dream ads.

Perhaps we can have an app which projects dream-sheep jumping over a fence as a sleep-aid?

What mechanism do you propose to allow them to feed on ordinary people if the market is detached?

The pop from this bubble is going to destroy the world or perhaps the efforts to stop the bubble from popping (and thus avoid the destruction of the world) will destroy the world.

It's too-big-to-fail as a core business strategy.

First-task for the newly-born AIs? Make variations of existing scams to maximize believability, virality and deniability.

Black Mirror are like "What do we do now? Everything we can think of, Trump's already doing?"

It's almost as if everything in life is a scam. If you can persuade others to give you money quicker than others take it from you as a result of negative feedback for your actions, it's a win!

Wtf? Surely money, power, and sex are equally distributed for the good of the party, comrade!?!

Is there much money to be made exposing it?

Sure, for those committing the act - any press is good press.

There's still substantial room for improvement to maximally appeal to scammers as target customers but it's a great start.

I particularly liked the way sub-95%-confidence scammers were identified as those who would pay more and leveraged - most creative:-)

did they owe me for the time I spent hunting for a parking spot?

Would you have been parking outside their offices if you weren't employed by them?

I suspect not which means they motivated/coerced that action by the promise to pay so they should pay for it.

Anything you do for an employer which you wouldn't do without that employment relationship should be payable by them.

I think having too much money does only bad things to you.

Despite the prevailing view that CEOs are on-average towards one end of a spectrum of psychopathy, I wonder if the knowledge that their wealth is largely the result of shifting perpetual ownership of assets created by others one way and shifting a tiny ephemeral reward the other way, might cause them what might be called feelings of guilt on some level.
