I had not cared about it until a few minutes ago, when I read another top post about the girl who got an abortion being outed by non-encrypted messages on Facebook. Since iMessages are encrypted, but sms is not, I could understand iphone users wanting to switch to another platform after realizing their friend is an Android user.

I’m not sure why this post has so many downvotes, because this is accurate. I just started working somewhere that utilizes a lot of technical writing and there are style guides to make sure your writing is in its simplest and clearest form. Text is rated on the Gunning fog index, which uses words per sentence and syllables to calculate readability. Writing for the public is intended to be at an 8 or lower, meaning 8th grade readability or lower. I think many people never really learned to read at higher than an 8th grade level, and the rest get used to never reading higher in their daily lives.

It’s like that billboard in the middle of nowhere that ISN’T advertising lions den or pecan shops. Nobody is advertising here because nobody knows it exists!

They haven’t asked for extradition yet, but it worries me that they could ask for extradition from the US just because a US citizen made a mean joke that hurt their feelings. If they asked, would the US comply? Seems pretty anti-free-speech if they did.

No they are not.

Not an expert in the matter, just do not want to take cold showers.
