Which do you prefer more?
A) Targeted ads
B) Botulism
C) A sharp stick in the eye

"See? Everyone said they'd prefer targeted ads. What's the problem?"

What lag? Atari 2600 cartridges had like 32k ROM size. You could load that over the internet a hundred times over, keep all copies in RAM, and still never even notice the impact.

"We're not demonstrating, we're buying groceries,"

soon one protester starts amplifying their voice with a bullhorn

I always go shopping with a bullhorn.

aimed at providing users with more time to review the terms

People don't need more time to review the terms. They already understand you're trying to screw them and they've said no. What you're telling them is "We think you're too stupid to understand and that's why you all left. We're going to give you just one more chance, idiots."

The word you're looking for is "insurrection". They brought guns, bombs, and a gallows.

including full names, telephone numbers, social security numbers, email addresses, dates and places of birth, nationality, and home addresses. While the telco said no financial data or call details were stolen in the intrusion

Well, thank goodness they didn't get any financial data. I mean, they got everything else they'd need to get that data on their own, but at least they don't have it yet, so I guess you get a big fat pat on the back for doing such a good job safeguarding the financial data, you tone deaf morons.

The Chief Resident Council's response to the Administration's algorithm includes both a breakdown and their demands. The first paragraph states

There is still no articulated plan to vaccinate the remaining 1,300+ residents and fellows, including those on the front line directly treating
COVID-19 patients.

Why can't these companies be sued out of existence?

spyware known to be used by nation states

I mean, the answer seems pretty obvious.

My company went all-in on Surface awhile back and we've had tons of each iteration. They were junk. The failure rate was unreasonably high and even the cheapest repairs were never less than 50% of the cost of a brand new unit. You know, low enough to make you question the wisdom of repair vs replace but high enough to soak you for simple fixes. I finally convinced the bean counters to switch platforms to something that isn't a steaming pile of suck.

Unfortunately, due to a human error related to how we interface with our mailing list provider, a number of users' email addresses were populated alongside yours.

This mistake is especially painful as we take privacy extremely seriously

But not, apparently, seriously enough to properly train your marketing department or automate in a way that prevents this sort of problem in the first place. In other words, you're lying just like every other company who claims to take privacy seriously.

We have a rigorous review and approval process

No, you don't. You just have a review process that believes whatever the supplier tells you. That's not what "rigorous" means at all. The fact that this keeps happening tells me that you're also lying about your vetting process.

Pilots and airlines don't want them. In an era when there is a massive shortage of pilots (Covid notwithstanding), making the working environment even more hostile isn't a good way to retain experienced pilots or attract new ones.

I'm SHOCKED, I tell you. I just can't believe that people don't want to spend $200,000 for half-assed online classes taught by ill-prepared, incompetent, and uncaring teaching assistants and run by department heads who think "the internet" is just some fad and can't understand why people are having so much trouble learning the material. It just amazes me that these kids don't want to be saddled with 30-40 years of crushing debt with dismal post-grad job prospects. What the hell is wrong with them, anyway?

They seem to be plagued by fit-and-finish problems, so I'm gonna assume that your hope is misplaced.

If all you're looking for is cheap-and-deep storage, then this isn't the product for you. The target market for Synology is pseudo-servers for small- and branch-offices that need server applications like backups, LDAP, e-mail, etc. and don't want to buy commodity servers, and don't have the manpower or expertise to roll their own using available hardware and some flavor of linux.
