I don't know if they still do, but Facebook used to count viewing a web page with a Facebook "like" button as being an active user

Twitter has always been "small" but popular with people who work in the media, so you hear it mentioned on the same level as Facebook by those people, even though it's never been any where near the same size

On the positive side, it allows you to contact people that you would have never interacted with otherwise

If it's to stop cheaters, they could just block the "unauthorised" controllers from online play, no need to punish offline players

They might exist, but they aren't widely known about like they are in the USA

The memes were making fun of the fact that no one had seen it, somehow Warner thought that re-releasing the film would make the memers go to see it, but that would have gone against the point of the meme

I get personal choice, but if you are looking for privacy focused, wouldn't a browser based option give the developer less information than installing an app?

It looks like the game is part of Chrome but not Chromium, so it would be under Google's copyright. So if you mean a copy using the same assets then no. If you mean can you create an endless runner featuring a dinosaur, yes

Strong Pokémon. Weak Pokémon. That is only the selfish perception of people. Truly skilled trainers should try to win with their favorites.

Basic cyber security says that passwords should be encrypted and hashed, so that even the company storing them doesn't know what the password is. (When you log in, the site performs the same encrypting and hashing steps and compares the results) Otherwise if they are hacked, the attackers get access to all the passwords.

I've noticed a few companies ask for specific characters of my password to prove who I am (eg enter the 2nd and 9th character)

Is there any secure way that this could be happening? Or are the companies storing my password in plain text?
