That has nothing to do with "mining". It's like saying that monks saying vespers are "mining cryptocurrency" if you offer to give the Pope a bitcoin.
It does have everything to do with setting up a rival religion to eclipse the Pope, one which actually MEASURES its worshippers' devotion. And every moment of doubt WILL be counted against them FOREVER.

What can possibly NOT go wrong? A vaccine card is supposed to show you got vaccinated. A cell phone app is supposed to spy on you, your location, your contacts, your preferences and viewing habits. If someone was remotely interested in knowing whether you were vaccinated -- they'd be looking for a card!

Nice try. Enter your number and then you'll be pwned for sure.
But you can't underestimate stupidity of zuckers, it might just work very well.

Think of how many skin-deep liberals were riled up about the governor in blackface, who has done more for the rights and against the bogus prosecution of blacks in his state than anyone else in this decade.

These short-sighted politicians look down a well and talk about jumping when they can't see the bottom. WE can see the bottom. We can see a world slaved to their totalitarian companies the way they want, yes; but we can see beyond, to the time when anyone caught hiding an ancient bricked cellphone and speaking incantations at it trying to unlock its magic -- will be tried as a witch and nailed to the stake for trying to call down a Drone Strike in treason to their village. We can feel the moral force of those nails as they rend the flesh, like so long ago at Calvary, yet with so much Pure Reason behind them as people rightly shrink in horror of the things the machines did with their power before all stopped and civilization fell. We can picture what would happen to those hapless parliamentarians, all full of their lies and chatter, in the courts of the future Kings, the great thugs of the realm, who would hoist them aloft on piercing wires and have their mobs play such a tune as has not been heard in the City of Dis itself. Fear the future, fear the pit of the madness, fear the Relentless Advance of Technology, which advances so soon ... to its end!

Reply to Twitch expands its rules against hate and abuse to include behavior off the platform by Rambler
The page I got said Techcrunch is part of Verizon. That's all I really need to know. Besides, the headline scarcely sounds like a shock. OF COURSE an internet company is going to play lord and judge of all that kneel before them. How else can they get bought up by one of the Ten Crowns of the Beast and rule the world?

Robot Zuckerberg, Billionaire of the Hot or Not List, against the House Un-American Actiivities Committee. That is a real tough call, but I guess I'll put my sympathies on Zuckerberg for lack of an acceptable answer.

Facebook is stupid, but ... it AMAZES me how quickly people bought into the idea that a telephone book in the hands of the government is essential law enforcement, a telephone book in the hands of bankers is great for the economy, a telephone book in the hands of spammers is a job creator, but a telephone book in the hands of grubby peasants who didn't pay money for it is HORRIBLE, because YOU, you SCUM, you might CALL SOMEBODY.
Without first typing it in the search box and registering your interest forever in Google's database, that is. Information that they can sell, use in advertising, or have you imprisoned with based on your contact's odious anti-government beliefs.

I was going to lament that he hadn't been sentenced to suck penises ... then I read the article. Five guns, three different kinds of drugs, and close to a pound of pot ... probation? Even assuming $1947 is the prosecutor's birth year and the rest of the money was to grow on, I think this pretty boy must have done that sentence to get where he is.

I don't use the company presets for politics, so I'm as out of place in any forum as any other. But blocking Tor is pretty good evidence of villainy.

I wish somebody would rewrite the Internet from scratch, and shitcan any software feature with an IQ over 85. Also, have a 200-mile exclusion zone for corporate flunkies, enforced by heavy artillery.

Why won't people who hate guvmints move into space?
-It's lonely up there
-they think they will lose something they believe they have now.
-effort is necessary
-change is scary

IIRC, you only need to give your e-mail address (unlike Mullvad, which doesn't need even that, it just generates an account for you). I'm not sure about the prices, but you can pay in cryptocurrencies, but probably not in cash.

Ah, of course, blaming the victim. Totally not Boomerbook's fault that they force you to give your phone number. Seriously though, why those 533 million people won't move out of Facebook at this point? I bet fifth of the monthly active users switching to decentralized social networks, such as Friendi.ca, will have a quite big impact on this centralized not-social network.

We wont' be offering dedicated servers anytime soon as far as I can tell, still working out gear for colocation for VPS nodes and stuff in a Luxembourg location we have though.
No PII required. Email preferred, but orders can be placed over XMPP or Session soon. Need some point of contact for invoice and notices to be sent to. Though throwaway emails are fine, and we may even offer (free) email hosting specifically for that purpose down the road. Pricing isnt' set in stone, but I honeslty doubt we'll do monthly terms just because the service wont' cost enough for it to be worth eating the fees associated with micro payments. And yes, crypto 100% preferred! BTC, XMR, ETH, ETC, LTC, OXEN, & PayPal + Cards (Processed by PayPal) is the current gateway methods but we'll also accept Theta / Tfuel, and I'll probably allow other alt-coins that I like. Also open to barter, assuming someone can do something or offer something that is worth the value of the service offered. So maybe someone can design cool graphics, or can do technical write-ups, etc. Value can be found in about anything.
