@aral Did they kidnap her from the street to remove the implant? I can't imagine that I would voluntarily go into the hospital for such a procedure.

@eff Good advice, but I use jokes for my security answers.

I help people make various online accounts almost every day, and for most people, being memorable is the most important thing. The name of the hospital they were born in is a go-to for them, the name of their high school is a second choice. They are typically people who have already created an account and can't retrieve it.

@arstechnica Not the only bottleneck. There's evidence of one just a few thousand years ago, and another about 70,000 years ago.

@arstechnica This is an ideal decision. Media corporations depend on copyright to produce intellectual property which they can then collect rent on for a century plus. Without an author, they no longer have IP to exploit. This means they must hire a human being to produce the product they rent out. Guaranteed the media corps will be bribing the USSC to overturn the decision.

@arstechnica How is it that private companies are allowed to collect information about us that the government would need a warrant for?

@arstechnica Reddit expected volunteers to accept being treated like employees.
