My last trip to Paris was 1 year ago and it was pretty bad compared to NYC, Los Angeles, and San Francisco for the average tourist - especially at night.

It has nothing to do with credit card processing fees, or data-mining.

Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile want you to connect a bank account to further tie an identity to a phone number / account.

This comes at request of the government. They do not want anonymous cellular users.

The funny thing is Product Marketing Managers, to boost sign-up numbers, completely omit this step in certain regions like India, Eastern Europe, etc.

It's a boilerplate response for pro-China comments.

This honestly is standard web scraping but these projects always catch my attention.

You're bound at the mercy of rate-limiting firewalls (so you'll have to rotate proxies if you intend on using this heavily) on top of the standard CloudFront bot detection recaptcha, and div-obfuscation (a good example of this is Facebook).

Agreed, it's fud - and there are professional botnets on HackerNews to amplify what they want.

What I've noticed is there's little technical discussion, and more so emotional-provoking replies.
