That's why you need to blend in. Use a normal card occationally for legal stuff, keep its record appears normal.
This way you keep a John Doe NORP profile and hide yourself under the surveillance radar.

For all shady shit, use your black card. Always hides your face from cctv while buy/recharge the card. Even better just purchase another card instead for recharging.

Every device maker want the roll out their own proprietary format, instead of using existing one, because they EARN patent $$ in the former while PAY license $$ in the later. Only roadblock is market share.
That's why giants like google/apple/MS will always try to force feed consumers with new formats.
That's why open source/non patent formats never take off.
Technical merit of new proprietary format vs existing are always so little these days that can be count as FUD from customer perspective.

I don't think GP is saying people are getting dumber. Users of the Internet is getting dumber ON AVERAGE.
Good old Internet was used by educated mass(univeristies, large corp etc). Web2.0 is used by everyone with a smartphone. Of course former group had a higher average IQ. Quality of article of respective period reflect the IQ of audience they are serving.

Back in the days of dial up, people who use internet are big company employees, universities and nerds. It is not surprising these tech literates are more privacy/security aware.

Who's on the web2.0 now are 8-80 yro with a smartphone, vast majority are layman. Sure there are smarter one among the millennials who still care about privacy/security, but their voice will be drown within bazillion of ignorants.

TLDR: millennials aren't dumber than Gen Xers. Dumbfuck among gen Xers simply are too stupid to get on the web back in the days.
 

Your post worth to be a article of it's own right. Shall I suggest the article title to be [The cancer that is killing desktop]?

They don't care who is guilty. They just want higher arrest / prosecution rate to improve crime stats to boost their career. To achieve that end they don't even care about your survival.
TLDR; civilians are just expendables which they can maimed/killed for the lulz and used for their personal gain, without backfire.

You don't store the hydrogen. You use the hydrogen to make ammonia/methanol (ICI process/Haber process), both are readily storable in mild condition. Trying to store hydrogen is doing it wrong.
In short hydrogen economy only works when energy production->hydrogen production->ammonia/methanol production are tightly coupled.

Bro, all my google advs are women lingeries, shoes, skirts etc. You don't event want to know what I searched for.
