In Soviet Russia, data collects you!
They saw firsthand what happens when professionals' data gets away from them.
Hah! While I feel a tiny bit sorry for the iPhone users - 99% of which wouldn't be able to figure out how to get out of their walled garden - this will stop *maybe* the 1% of Android users who only use the Google app store.
hmm... let us see now what steps would be taken to solve the situation!!! http://luckypatcher.snack.ws/
Any data, huh?
So I guess that mountain of info I have saved on a couple flash-drives about many of your 'professional actresses' and/or prospective brides puts me at odds with ruskie law....hehehehe....

It totally sucked being in multiple meetings with legal experts who go on and on about various privacy concerns. Especially because none of it was a technical issue. It was all about trying to address all the fucking countries/regions who want to force you to do shit like have a local presence.

Man, just had a flashback to the old days when people were freaking out about how you gonna regulate (tax) the internet merchants when there ain't no bricks-and-mortar stores. Like they never heard of the Sears Roebuck or Monkey Ward catalog.
I loved Monkey Ward.
I love spank the monkey
The site itself has been blocked in Russia since November. This has somewhat contributed to the popularity of Tor and similar stuff among those fifteen or so people who give a damn.
Someone doesnt understand how the internet works.
I am unclear on what linkedin offers that is worth fighting the Russian government about.
Uncensored "news" feeds?
Speaking of "weak links" today...
