Your idea makes perfect sense, though I think it's not only embedded in culture (parenting), but also in our nature as humans.
I'm tempted to say that humans are born curious, and by extension, most humans like to share their knowledge or more often their opinions. I know I do.
Yes, but I'm trying to wean myself off of it. Partly because it feels like destructive behavior, and partly because it must be annoying for others to constantly listen to me cracking my knuckles.
Thank you very much, we should always strive to back up claims with relevant links and data, no matter if it's common sense or how trivial it might seem.
While the quote and linked paper give a good picture of the VPNs and their controversies, such as ExpressVPN, CyberGhost, and PIA being under ownership of a less-than-trustworthy company which also happens to be specialized in malware and surveillance, I did not find anything that directly supported @[email protected]'s claim.
The only controversy (except questionable ownership) I could find in the article was a few paragraphs lower regarding the Andrey Karlov assassination, where ExpressVPN denied the existence of logs but investigators somehow still managed to extract a serial number of a computer(?) after a datacenter raid. Not sure if I got that right, but it would fit the established profile from this comment chain:
ExpressVPN, on the other hand, told investigators it did not have any logs or customer data on a server in Turkey, which was raided by Turkish authorities, according to Hurriyet Daily News. According to the site, authorities said the server was used to hide details regarding an assassination of a Russian ambassador. ExpressVPN released a statement about the incident.
It's almost midnight here, so please correct me if I missed something.
Oh, and nice paper, has a good, natural flow and appears to keep technical jargon to a level where anyone should be able to draw well informed conclusions.
Thank you for the heads-up. Do you have any articles about this?
Expressvpn is about 10$ a month, so 5$ would definitely be an improvement.
.... Please do not fuck that.
That is the world we currently live in.
Quite some work left to do to achieve a sociaty with universal basic income, if even the technologies developed for the purpose are twisted and used against it.
Man, that's just not in the budget. How am I supposed to scratch my need-to-kill-brown-kids itch without the taxpayer money we specifically set aside for this purpose?
What kind of absurd ideas are you gonna come up with next? No more instigating strife in the middle east? Pah! Not on my watch!

Dunno about Bluetooth, but isn't Expressvpn pushing their new password manager? I imagine it's a separate app, but if not, then it would make sense to have camera to read 2FA QR-codes.
Edit: from their site:
Keys comes included in any ExpressVPN subscription and is built right in to our apps for iOS and Android.
Yup, that's got to be the camera. Still not sure about the Bluetooth though.
And most important, don't look at your phone or have the TV or computer running in the background. They take focus away from doing nothing.
Going for frequent walks might also work if sitting still is not your thing.
Hell, if the Amaricans and Vietnamese can call a girl "Kim", then we can call a boy "Jennifer" and say we got inspired.
Thank you, but I already know that study.
My problem is, that while it makes a satisfying click noise and temporarily feels good, it also sometimes becomes itchy or perhaps slightly painful afterwards, and I just don't like that feeling.
