  • Some TVs have tech called ACR (Automatic Content Recognition) that literally reads pixels on the screen for identifying information about what content is being displayed. If your TV has ACR enabled, it’s possible it’s tracking what you watch, even if you’re viewing it through a device like Chromecast.

    If your TV doesn’t have ACR or the TV itself isn’t connected to the Internet, then you’re probably fine.



  • It can be a lot of things, none which make sense to normal people. My guess is it’s mostly a power thing. This guy felt big and strong and intimidating for a moment of his life and he wanted to bask in it.

    Because he knows, just like the rest of us do now, that he’s really just a sad, scared piece of shit that would piss his own pants and cry like a baby the minute someone his own size decided to pick on him.

    In fact, I bet his pants are filling up with piss knowing that he’s a national news story and people want him dead for his behavior. I just hope he doesn’t have another victim to take his frustration and fear out on. Unless he wants to make that victim himself.







  • Apple is now the most valuable company on earth, so I think you’re not making the point you think you’re making. Publicly traded companies act only based on what increases the value of their shares the most. If the current CEO isn’t seen as the most profitable CEO for the shareholders, they will eventually be replaced, even if they founded the company. That is a risk you knowingly take when taking your company public. Most founders choose the money that comes with an IPO, knowing they’ll eventually get the boot.

    1. Pay $0 to use a product from a business that is losing money
    2. Business makes a policy change to try to convince you their product is worth paying for, but still let’s you use a version of it for FREE
    3. Wow this company sucks, I’ve given them nothing and they’re taking everything away

    In a capitalist society you speak with your money. It’s the only language businesses speak. If you’re not giving a company any money they’re not going to cater their product to you, plain and simple.
