Well no, but I'm curious what the FTC's studies of that were. There are plenty of reviews of OpenDoor (check Reddit) where reviewers stated they just needed to clean out their house. I'm guessing OpenDoor has a certain standard for agreeing to buy a home, and some homes they ask to do repairs would otherwise have been turned away.

Agreed. iBuying is a business and your paying for the convenience of them taking your home as-is. Even though their offering price is lower than what you'd receive from selling with a realtor, you still end up spending 10-15% of your home value when selling the traditional way.

Agreed. One thing this article doesn't point out that was a bigger topic a couple of weeks prior is that Zillow had to halt purchases due to lack of workers to help flip the homes [1]. The iBuying revenue model depends on the ability to flip a home quickly so that market fluctuations do not have enough time to pose as a risk, which Zillow was willing to take.

I think you are describing DDG.

To prevent data from being used by the Uber app on Android I enabled data server mode, and from there denied the Uber app from having unrestricted data access (settings > apps > special access > unrestricted data access). This allows me to still use the Uber app and request a ride, and I'll receive texts once the car is near.

Last week during Thanksgiving travel I received a advertisement from the Uber app (as a notification) when I arrived at the SFO airport, even though I did not use the app at all that day. That's when I decided it was time to take away the unrestricted data access. I do agree that it would be nice to have better privacy options for each app, but I thought I'd share this workaround for the time being.

Looking at the update at 2.32pm AEST makes me sad. Two people mourning over the loss of their relatives and everyone in the airport takes pictures of them. Here is the image (although I'm just spreading it around more): http://static.guim.co.uk/sys-images/Guardian/Pix/pictures/20...

This could be the opening ceremony for Waza 2014!

Nope. Title is exactly the same as it was posted originally (except for "yelp" being capitalized to "Yelp").

"The subject later reported that he could feel and hear the air leaking out, and his last conscious memory was of the water on his tongue beginning to boil"

Can someone explain the boiling water on his tongue?

This is exactly the reason Google implemented fiber in the first place. Their intent is not to necessarily dominate the broadband networks, but simply to bring back competition to these oligopolies.

Now if only San Francisco could get some decent internet! I've been hoping for monkeybrains to expand further from the Mission so I can drop Comcast.

True, but bee venom wouldn't be harmful to anyone now would it? :P
