>He ripped of tons of people with a subscription scam in Germany a couple of years ago.

Can you provide a source relate to the subscription scam?

The way this message will translate to the nerds|power users|hackers|rooted user|content creator|

"Netflix does not value your money, therefore you cannot use our services. However, you can always pirate the content on Internet for free."

Why bother with content that is difficult to access, when you can watch one of the billions of other videos and streams available on YouTube, Twitch, Vimeo, or any other website.

If a content owner wants to make access to their content difficult, why should their content be relevant?

When I made that quora complain before, HN readers are kind enough to show me how to avoid it. Without the ?share=1 trick, I probably don't even know how Quora looks like.

It is different: Cellphone, especially smartphone nowadays, has extended reach.

When your phone is taken away after they forced you enter SU level password, you have no control of it, they do.

Whoever took it inside the room, they can:

>Browser your email, check who you contacted since you have you email box: Why you bought this on amazon? Why you bought that from Ebay? For what reason you purchase two pressure cookers from and nails from Walmart at the same time?

>Check your contacts: Who is Mr.X? When was the last time you talk to Mr. Y? What was in the conversation?

>Check what you have posted on facebook/Twitter. You supported Aaron Swartz? You are in the protest called The Day we Fight Back? What was the protest about? Who you are with?

>You may have home security Cam APP installed: Who sitting in the sofa? How many rooms do you have? Is this your wife? What is her social security number? What is her first name? On the day of Feb 21, 2013, who are the two male visited your home? What's their name and what's the purpose of the visit? How long they stayed in your house? What car they are diving? What is the plate number?

>Copy all your photos for further investation.

>Install Spyware, Copy your RSA key stored in your phone.

I bought 16 total Low Self-Sidcharge NiMh AAA/AA from amazon back to 2009.

That was the last time I buy batteries in that spec because they still work today.

Contracts bind you and the services with a fixed price, regardless on the value and emerge competitors.

True.

Microsoft would not beat IBM for being 'the next IBM'

Tesla would not beat Major car industries for being 'the next-gen Toyota way'

and, Google, probably will be replaced by someone in a complete industry. My guess that might be something that comes from VR.

I think it's entirely possible for a new advertising company to take hold... Google and Facebook haven't done the greatest job here, and are simply the largest because of their vertical market.. that doesn't mean there isn't room for competition and sites that are better than the linkbait sites currently used.

Seems like today's Buddhist monks are nothing more than just an attraction for tourists at this point.

For a moment I have to check your username to make sure this is not my reply.

I am surprised how anyone can pay with discount in an APP call "dianping". For a two week trip in china, I found out even Taxi driver will accept my Wechat payment and they don't even know english.
