Comment LG TV (Score 2) 53

After the video that GamersNexus posted earlier tonight about LG's TV and LGE/Alphonso ad tracking/delivery service I think there's going to be several emails and phone calls in the morning about the usage and deployment of various LG devices in government and military installations.

To say the shit is about to hit the fans is an understatement.

Or just require logins, and require a modest microtransaction of $1 to create a login, or explicit administrator approval. Longtime actual users and contributors will be exempt through the administrator provision, and bots are free to create $1 accounts (which are bannable for abuse) thus funding the project. New actual users probably woud not be bothered if the rationale is explained.
If it's really worth it for them to crawl endless random URLs until the sun burns out its fuel, make them pay for the privilege.

Because the Democrat Party (tm) finally saw the writing on the wall and the biggest supporters told his crusty old ass that if he ran he would 100% guarantee a trump victory, and he ultimately withdrew at the 11th hour. The important part is: it did not stop him from TRYING.
Maybe you forget about the part where the party basically had to have a fake as fuck primary due to low confidence in him (normally it would just be assumed), and when he was finally convinced not to run they had to push Kamala in as a nominated candidate, ultimately doing an end run around the democratic process--nobody outside of super delegates voted for her in a primary. The Democrat Party (tm) does not embrace democracy.

The technology that was highlighted in that movie originated around that time or a bit before. It goes by several names, but WAMI (wide area motion imagery) is kind of the generic term; it allows a forensic tech to rewind and track objects (people, vehicles) after an event. With AI and persistent vision, bottomless data center storage, it will allow everything / everyone to be tracked at all times. People don't know that this is already deployed over many large cities; essentially global hawk drones with high resolution hemispherical cameras constantly flying patterns, watching everything.

Let's be real. They blew the school up because it was a school, and most likely a lot of the leadership / military families sent their girls there. And our leaders are evil bastards, working for evil bastards on behalf of other evil bastards. It's an exercise for the reader to determine the nature of those evil bastards.
