It’s not just a breach you have to worry about. Credit agencies actively monetize your financial data by selling it to anyone who wants it. You didn’t give it to them, you didn’t authorize it, they collect it and they sell it.

Never give up the domain. I’ve let several go that I wish I still had. They only get more valuable, like real estate.

The linked article in this post is from a pretty sketchy biased site, and you’re right that they are using inflammatory language rather than accurate language. I’m no expert, but it sounds FB may have had a point blocking this account. I hate Facebook, but not because of this.

I think you misread that. This poster’s experience isn’t from 2016. They installed a program called “Outlook 2016” recently.

Spreadsheets are life. I think in spreadsheets. I hope it comes soon.

I work for a company that does marketing, and they are seriously struggling right now because TV and Social media ads are getting more expensive, while at the same time becoming less effective.

Yes. This is true.

Because ads suck and people hate them. Whats the new way? Be good at what you do so people talk about your brand. Show up in searches when I’m looking for you. That’s it.

Oh good. Because if there’s a profile of my advertising preferences out there, it knows that when I am forced to view an ad, I look away from the screen, turn off the volume, sigh dramatically, and say “Fuck <this product> right in the ass.”

Personalize away.

I talked to a business leader yesterday who said that their outsourced overseas developers were not performing well, so they were planning to directly contract some overseas developers, because then they would be “captive”. And he proceed to refer to them as “captive developers” for the rest of the conversation.

Sir, you should not refer to people who work for you as “captive”. That has a very negative connotation, and I’m shocked you don’t hear it. Please at least notice everyone else’s reaction when you say it.
