What I read from the paper is Google acted on its own assuming a certain (wrong) understanding of the law.
And Google possibly didn't care and thought if anyone complained it would be better for them to then ask for forgiveness than first ask and wait for permission, that they might not get. I hope they're fined *and* made to replace all the trees.

Microsoft has probably the most illustrious history of bugs where just visiting a website or opening an email can get your system hacked, but you're right, this is not a problem unique to them.
These days, Lookout asks you before it loads any images from outside your organization...
The proper response to being in an area where datacentres are crowding in is "lobby your elected officials to increase property taxes and not give out tax increment financing deals". Tax everything, and tax it well. They'll stop building new datacentres in your area, and the ones that are there will (unless they were given a long-term sweetheart deal beyond your already-low tax rates) start being cash cows for your area.
We should really be building operating systems with more process isolation and clear permissions systems for which apps can interact with which other apps in which ways. There's elements of this in Android, and in capabilities systems like selinux, but the more powerful they get the harder they are to use. This is inevitable, but a lot more can still be done to make this kind of functionality accessible to users.
Additionally, some portions of the wikis were still built with Python 2. Python 2 reached end of life on January 1, 2020, and no longer receives upstream security fixes.
Not even Python could keep up with having to update from Python 2 to Python 3.
Really, you don't see any difference between Elon Musk and, say, John Stankey? Is John Stankey actively transforming the US into an autocratic fascist-adjacent state?
Would you buy from a company called Plantations Inc which proudly advertises that all of its products are made by daily-whipped slaves? Are there no limits to how self-focused you are in your consumption?
It's one thing to say "this particular issue isn't mine, so I'm only going to think amount myself". It's an entirely different issue to have no moral bounds.
This headline sounds like something you'd hear coming from a news report on a TV in the background near the start of a horror movie.
Arguably, we started wearing machines with the advent of the smartphone
Pocket watch.
so I think a case could be made that we're already serving machines to some extent.
Time to start work! Eight o'clock, on the dot!
So being paid to perform a service has now graduated from "handout" to "bribe" in clown world?
In child rapist island world, bad people made deals to grift and graft in between bouts of raping children. One of those people is sitting in the big chair, deciding who gets paid instead of the people the constitution says are supposed to do it. You want to act surprised that people believe the funds are being misappropriated?
The only contractors in the US which have a chance to get anything to the moon are SpaceX, Blue Origin, and Boing. All are hugely problematic for a variety of reasons, and asserting that noticing that is clown shit is itself cuck shit.
That does look pretty good, but I'm not using the network. The only things I want to see are Live TV and HDMI inputs. Everything else is an anti-feature.
