It's cheap and reliable with predictable costs. It hasn't caused me any problems in a decade. Most of the websites I want to host don't need cloud anything, they're statically generated.
My point is that "the border with Mexico, which has a long history of abuse", with a particular emphasis on Mexico, makes it sound like you're stating that Mexico has a history of those things.
Your sentence is ambiguously phrased. Might I suggest "the border with Mexico, where US immigration officers have a long history of...."
I disagree. Plenty of privacy friendly things are not totally anonymous. The average reader has no such expectation, and if you think they do you really need to expand your social circle beyond a subset of tech workers.

That claim is meaningless without digging deeper. It's not the fault of any project that different people interpret terms like "privacy-friendly" differently. They don't say "anonymous".
For a very long time they didn't. They still don't by default in the US, only in certain jurisdictions.
Because this way they can lie to you and offer low rates to pull you in until you go to check out.
You can still do that. The host just can't require you to do that - especially after charging a mandatory cleaning fee. I mostly stopped using AirBnB due to the impact of their existence and lobbying on cities and…

Childish tactics discredit the author and both distract from and weaken any other arguments they make. There are plenty of good things to criticize about Microsoft without resorting to playground tactics.
No, but like most people I matured out of name calling many years ago.
Ooh, you misspelled Microsoft and made it an insult, how original and insightful. Get in line behind every teenager on Slackdot 25 years ago. Microsoft Security gave an excellent presentation on the topic:…
To be clear, this is a scathing parody of how rationalist and especially "effective altruist" folks (both movements being very popular among the bay area tech crowd) talk. It's easier to sleep at night on a mattress…

Golden Age science fiction missed a lot of social factors of how technology would change society, but even then they understood how the capitalist class thinks of the labor class.
The difference is that I assume good faith and a history of competence on the part of the GHC operators and do not make any such assumption about the Fyre operators.
I've never worked organizing a conference of this scale, but how do you come to a decision like this only 2 weeks in advance? Surely sponsors etc. need to be lined up months ahead of time and organizers would have…
Who is "most"? Is this the same "most" that thinks college degrees are pointless and you should just go found a company (i.e. those that aren't paying attention and just want a credential)?
