Just an another HTTP header, flagging if user is an adult. Set it to False if OS reports that the account used has parental controls enabled.

This is just meant to keep children out, not protect state secrets.

I wouldn't call it a hobby, just some entertainment to pass the time/hang out with friends.

It was Counter-Strike 1.6. I didn't leave the house the summer I discovered it as a kid.

Additionally, I can't really understand why are dynamically linked libraries so popular and how on earth anyone who ever had a ".dll / .so not found" error thinks this is a good idea.

  1. You can load a DLL once and all programs can share it, saving memory. It also makes programs start faster since the DLL might be already loaded, so there's less to load from disk. That mattered more back in the 90s
  2. You can update one file and have the patch apply to all programs

At least he wasn't like the aristocracy in the past, when they had everything since they where born.

Musk's parents totally don't own an emerald mine in Africa.

I heard of a guy who went to prison because he bought something from Allegro (Polish Amazon) over TOR. Someone used the same exit node for hacking, so they pinned it on him.

There's Firefox on iOS, but it's practically a wrapper around Safari. You get your bookmark synchronization, but everything under the hood runs on WebKit.
