They also have some fun policies like allowing employers to pay to moderate their reviews. So yeah, they’re the Yelp of employer reviews these days

Sounds like a job for account sharing with other people

We’ve drastically simplified and made tech accessible to everyone with a smartphone, you no longer need computer skills to get on the internet to shop or participate in social activities. Kids use apps’ platforms for the things we had to build and host ourselves 20y ago.

It pioneered DDoS attacks so, uh, yeah

They’re trying to be the MSN of the 2020s but their userbase has zero interest in advertising or AI slop. It’s not going well and they refuse to focus on their core product.

90s script kiddie here - a bunch of the shit you can do as a minor with low/no consequences becomes SERIOUS FUCKING BUSINESS as an adult with assets. It’s just not worth the risk to keep dicking around with things that might land you in prison or cost you everything you have.

Is (insert heavily marketed product here) just a fad?

Why don’t you volunteer to be the test case Larry?

If: you’re a starred contact and call twice within 10 minutes and I happen to have the phone at hand and I’m pretty sure you have something important to say I’ll probably pick it up.

Ruckus APs and Opnsense have been solidly reliable for me for 5y now. No random fucking with unifi bugs (like having my WPA enterprise SSID punting users out onto the management vlan at random instead of the Kerberos assigned VLAN for that user, thanks unifi) and fantastic wireless coverage has me completely satisfied with my infra choices. Also, Ruckus unleashed handles controller duty on the primary AP rather than requiring a management container, that’s also a plus.

Read the fine print too, a lot of these “mental health counseling services” have carve outs that stipulate that they can pass along data about your sessions to third parties (like your employer.) Most of them aren’t health care professionals so health care law doesn’t apply.
