Google can't make it work because they need to sell out there users. A random company does not need to do that. Even google doesn't do that if you're an enterprise user. So you see google does make it work if you pay them. The same way you can pay a random company.
Yes, losing passport is exactly that. Logging out makes me unable to access normal abilities a twitter user(american citizen) has. If passport analogy doesn't suit you, try incarceration.
India still manages to produce godmen like him. The latest one on the top of the list is 'Sri Sri Ravishankar'.
Previous to him was one called 'Asaram', but he and his son are behind bars now, for raping several women.
If that's the case then the matter should be closed. System76 was under no obligation to ship with LVFS support and it slipped due to other constraints.
I've been reading through posts on Reddit seeing if I could get a better understanding of the timing of what happened, if anything it's worse now but it seems that Richard's principal contact at System76 held off on notifying him until the release was finalized and is no longer with the company. (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux/comments/8i6swc/system76_and_...) It's unclear if he left before or after the release.
Judging by the all of the inaccuracies in Richard's blog post about the timing of announcements, nature of the application, and the platforms it supports, which all reflect poorly on System76 and benefit his argument; I'm inclined to agree that this is a FUD campaign to shame System76 into supporting LVFS. If you take into account his blog history of shaming companies (e.g. Razer), and his speaking about himself in the third person on reddit; Richard really sounds like a self important twat who is trying to strong arm everyone into using his software.
It's like seat belts. You cannot sell a car without seat belt regardless of customer's choice. The customer's choice come later whether or not he wants to put on the seat belt.
Normally I'd agree. But it's not the case here. Fredin(the man) is the one who was "online shaming" women, and it fired back at him. Can't say he is a victim of online shaming then.
Ok, there is a woman Lindsey Middlecamp, who has a twitter account [1], where she 'calls out' men overly concerned about womenfolk not dressing chastely enough.
Ok, so this women believes that women should be able to dress as sexy as they want without fear of reproach. So far, so good. God bless Lindsey Middlecamp!
The reason she comes across as a wacko is because she seems to think male toplessness is the equivalent of female toplessness. It's not. Women will not pay money to see men topless.
Then, as alleged by Mr. Fredin, she launched an anonymous attack against Mr. Fredin, falsely accusing him of rape.
Mr. Fredin, a bit piqued, responded by unmasking his anonymous harasser, Ms Middlecamp, and gave her a little payback.
Ms Middlecamp went to court and got the court to grant her an order, preventing Mr. Fredin from letting anyone know that Lindsey Middlecamp is the person behind @CardsAgstHrsmt.
That last part is the constitutionally-suspect part.
I wasn't in any way defending the lady. Just that the guy is not at a higher moral ground than her, including the fact that he has multiple restraining orders against him since before this incident.
