Comment Re: They should sue parents too. (Score 1) 165

Opposite side of the fence here.

They tried teaching me that mavis bacon crap for typing. It was the most excruuciating torture I had ever had to endure. I type my way, and I am comfortable with it. I ditched those classes.

I have beenin the IT industry for 25+ years now, and still type my own way. I am GLAD the schools ditched those classes.

May y'all type however it pleases you, but don't force your method on others. Nobody appreciates it.

The counter point here that is being missed is that they don't. presently everything is dumped into 'the cloud'. There's zero expectation of privacy or in some cases, even ownership of the work they are saving on whatever free service.

I contend that everyone that cares about protecting their own intellectual property or other personal digital assets *should know hwo to save those assets locally, securely and with personal redundancy.

Right now, th 'filing cabinet' is the best analogy unless you can think of asomething better?
