How unique do you suppose file system paths are?

How many hashes would one need to gather to quickly determine the root path for all files? Paths are not random so guessing the path is just a rainbow table.

The scanning for known releases becomes trivial once the file system pattern is known.

This isn't true.

It's a meme that achieved urban legend status.

Android and privacy are incongruent.

The reasons the article gives are because android chooses not to be an intermediate.

That's that the position for American libertarianism's.

I don't particularly hate taxes because I like my government services well funded.

Any study that reports as "People who do x, report y" is not science.

Self reporting is worthless.

At best this is inspiration for a scientific study that starts by showing if it is true by controlling for various factors.

In the case of a null hypothesis, delve into what causes these false beliefs to be reported.

having lived with teenagers in the house, I can't say it's the worst idea...

This is boomer humor style nonsense. All this really means is you're a terrible parent.

I have lived with teenagers and still do. I've found it no more difficult than any other stage.

I maintain that there simply is not enough tax base for these areas to fund themselves but you've done a wonderful job moving the goal posts beyond anything the article is stating; they rely on federal funds to operate.

What data do you have to back up corruption?

Keep in mind there are far more small towns than large towns. As a ratio it seems unlikely that small towns are more likely to be corrupt than cities.

The question then is what funds are they using to facilitate this corruption. My guess is federal and state funds because again, they lack the tax base.
