Too late. I got as far as "May cause ...".

Spothero seems to be in competition with Uber. Spothero: We'll get your car (which you drive) as close to your deestination as possible. Uber: We'll pick you up some distance away and make our money driving you to your destination.

Now just wait a sec while we optimise our algorithms to maximize funds extraction from your wallet.

I live 10 miles (more or less) from the airport why would I pay for parking when I could Uber or take public transportation from home?

After 31 years, most of my hair has fallen out. So I won't be needing them any longer.

And the consequence of such disobedience is being persecuted by the state for your cause. You don't elevate your own self importance or that of your political view by offing yourself.

What would have happened if the gov't had sentenced him to time served, then released with a fine and probation? Nobody would have remembered who he was or what his data freedom cause was. He might still be remembered for RSS and any other contributions he made, like web.py and .... Well, ok. He deserves death for that.

Reminds me of the blackmail attempt the KGB made on Sukarno (Indonesia's first president after independence). And then the Americans tried the same thing, thinking that the outrage of the Muslim majority population would get him unseated. Reaction back home was more like, "What a stud!" Conclusion: We shouldn't be filtering our political and business leadership through the Bohemian Grove.

Evil from who's point of view? They are certainly hated by the Agony Sisters Neighborhood Quilting Club, due to their better skills at maneuvering the womens' social order. But if you are looking for a mate, that's actually a good thing.

Could we have that in data centers please? Homes is an archaic unit, given as how we will all be living in tents with campfires in order to feed our masters soon.

Going out with a bang, as it were.

From TFA:

It would appear to be the combination. But like they said, further studies* are needed.

Doubt it. Jews in America are a stronghold of left wing socialist ideology when left to their own devices. And remember: There are no enemies on the left. Some of them who actively support Israel adopt a chameleon-like appearance with regard to the current party in power in the USA. And the ultra-left-wing will quickly change their opinion once the administration swings back their way*. Just take a big hit from that bong** dude and it will all be forgotten.

*The right wing as well. Remember, it was the GOP that used to refer to Washington DC as "Israeli-occupied territory".

**The present day implementation of panem et circenses.

You leave my dirty data alone! Anyway, she's over eighteen.

I was referring to my safety. Pedestrian safety here is pretty much a lost cause. Even the smallest vehicle will slaughter anyone who steps into traffic with nose in phone. Because our state says pedestrians have the absolute right of way and no responsibility. So, go ahead and step out, dude. And make sure you make a note of that personal injury lawyer's phone number before you pass out. It's on the side of any bus likely to hit you.

Because I don't need mommy government to tell me how safe I should be. Just publish the numbers and let me decide.

There's a reason for that. People have figured out what works and what does not. And, until recently, being a fashion statement wasn't high on most truck buyers lists. Elon would have been wise to do a bit more market research.
