Comment The alarm bells have been ringing for awhile (Score 5, Informative) 59

My husband is involved in antibiotic resistance research in animals / livestock at UC Davis. For the past 2 years, he's been sounding the alarm bells on the massive overuse of antibiotics in livestock, which is primarily used to increase yield. The most powerful antibiotic available for livestock is now being commonly used. He says it's only a matter of time before that becomes completely ineffective, which is the last line of defense. After that, there may be mass disease spreading in livestock which could severely affect our food supply.

Comment If you're companty still uses Ivanti VPN products (Score 2) 14

Comment Just as bad as getting away with rape (Score -1, Flamebait) 304

By Microsoft earning $2 billion from licensing fees for vague patents it's generally applying, and by using FUD to re-enforce those unproven ideas, then PROFITING from this science fiction, is akin to a rapist getting away with it, only to continue raping other victims over and over again. Someone needs to stand up and kick em in the balls.
