I recently had Intuit delete all my personal data, across all their products. Doing this was exhausting. Their online process for deleting an account did not work. Contacting customer support resulted in unhelpful back…
Not sure I follow your question. An example of something that's not human subjects research would be emailing people who have websites and asking about their privacy policy. An example of something that is human…
That's not the definition of human subjects research. Not everything that involves a human responding to questions is human subjects research. A lot of comments in this thread are uninformed about the relevant…
This is incorrect. It's only human subjects research if the researcher is obtaining data about a human. This is the "about whom" requirement. A classic example is calling a business and asking someone about the products…
My high school history teacher recommended his book to me when I was junior. I loved it, and even wrote to the author regarding a mistake I thought I found in the book (pretty arrogant of me). Loewen replied generously.…

Store owners, at least in the US, are not 100% liable for injuries on their property. Their liability depends on several factors, which include the reasonableness of their behavior and the behavior of the visitor.

The injustice is actually larger than this paragraph makes it seem. First, people can pass their low property taxes on to their children using trusts, creating a sort of landed nobility in California. Second, Prop 13…

That's understandable. Hard to offer advice without knowing the reasons for the unsuccessful interviews. If you did a few and did not get an offer, that's pretty normal and the solution might be to just keep trying. If…
