        ""We will still be launching new products but prior to launching them we are sitting down and trying to think of all the possible bad uses of them and what bad actors might do with them, and how do we mitigate those things,” says Facebook CTO Mike Schroepfer.""

        And you never thought about this before? This is either a bold faced lie, or total incompetence.

            Actually it is Zuckerberg's mindset.

            Technology is good period. Shove it out there as fast as possible, and when something bad results, handle it then, but the benefits of the mad push to deploy tech overrides anything else.

            This was recently covered in a good article highlighting the "feud" between Zuckerberg and Musk.

                Restic works well. I've been using it in my home lab and B2 storage.

                    First features of Fedora 29 , which is about seven months away, begin to solidify. Look for Python 3.7 and Rails 5.2, for example.

                        Again with injecting your own bias on a headline.

                        Stop doing it or stop reporting it as “news” and call it click bait.

                          No opinion added, no opinion exists in this case. Just a straight forward description without directly copying the wording.

                            That’s just one part of the article, it has another part of why they do it or how they defended it.

                                that's fine but doesn't change the fact that no opinion was added and it was just repeating the headline.

                                  Rewording means you arrange the words in a pattern that you desired. This turned it into your opinion.

                                        Which is exactly what it is. Read the original title, read the rewording. Identical meanings. Zero opinion, no variance.

                                          Original: DHS defends media-monitoring database, calls critics “conspiracy theorists”

                                          Rewording: DHS calls those that are critical of their media-monitoring databases conspiracy theorists.

                                          Please explain where any opinion was added. Both cases use the subjective party of the DHS, both have the verb of labelling critics conspiracy theorists, both about critics of the media-monitoring database. As there is no variance, whatsoever, from the original, how is it even possible for opinion to be involved here? And what opinion do you even think that is as I can't even tell. I had to go back and check which was the original and which was the rewording, because I wasn't sure which was which.
