No problem.
Let's compile the the Scott McNealy Database.
No scrap of data on any aspect of his life should be off limits.
He'll get over it.
What a surprise, another CEO that's apparently a sociopath?! No correlation between the two things, I imagine.
He said this in 1999
Imagine how pervasive this view has become today
Within a few years his company was consumed and destroyed by Oracle
Which will hopefully be gutted by the AI bubble
Then why do we "need" age verification?
Apparently we do in fact have more privacy than some would like...
that sounds like someone asking for a doxxing.
Where does he live?
Summerlin South, the Reverence community, Clark county Nevada.
Somewhere with expensive security no doubt.
Well Scott, if no one has privacy, I'm going to need to see your bank statements, medical records, investment portfolio, and will need unrestricted 24 hour access to the cameras inside your home. And there will be software installed on your mobile & desktop devices that allows anyone to see what you do online.
I just uninstalled 3 apps that activated my camera without permission.
Why does a weather app need a camera?
What the point of permissions if apps can just do anything?
Your case showed that the permission system is flawed, since it allowed camera access without having asked for your permission.
Afaik the older the operating system, you'll have more slip troughs.
Ironically Google owns both, the Play Store and Android.
Besides making the rules for app development, it has to make sure the permission system doesn't let malicious developers make a party on your phone, running their own operating system.
It's like the team app developing should know that team os security is doing and vice versa.
They are catching up, but It's astonishing how well they have been failing at this task.
Well that fella sounds like a huge fucking piece of shit.
5 guys CEO gave 1.5 mil bonus to his workers and says he didn't want to get Luigi'd. Just saying.
I am sorry for my French, but... Fudge You, moron.
I'm sorry for my English, but... Fuck Scott McNealy, asshole.
I have a quote back for him. Give us our privacy back willingly, or this is going to end with violence.
I am sure he would be thrilled to tell everyone in the room how much he gets a month and in what uses it for everyone to hear. Right? This and a bit on his sex life (if any), in detail
You first, Scott.
Why can't there be more "Fappening" events related to these awful people? I wanna see this guy's most shameful pics leaked for everyone to see because he had his shit in the cloud and wants privacy dead.
Be the change you want to see in the world
Summon the plumber.
I bet he goes out of his way to scrub his private information from the very systems he's built or helped build. Go the fuck away oligarch.
well, hey, how 'bout you go fuck yourself, buddy?
Luigi!
