Traditional virtualization still requires you to pay for your own power, cooling, redundancy, SAN, backup, network, etc.

Not every company has the need to staff all of these specialists.

It appears your organization left an elasticsearch database exposed to the internet. This happens frequently due to poor configuration.

You're either going to have logs pointing to an IP that the individual used to siphon your data, or nothing.

With an exposed elasticsearch database, you possibly had the data being siphoned by many parties, and are only aware now because of this particular incident.

If you have any operations regarding customers in Europe, you need to notify your relevant Data Protection Authority

You should also sign your engineers up for this course:

Hetzner is great until you have some sort of issue.

They seem to either not have much in the way of internal procedures or just ignore them if they exist.

As long as you're prepared for all of your data and backups to just disappear, it's a great low-cost environment.

If you expect their operational team to not accidentally delete your environment, it just hasn't happened to you yet.

I think the math problem could help, but you also need to ask yourself if you're just going to keep bypassing it anyway.. in which case software is unlikely to help much.

For you I would recommend the book: The Willpower Instinct by Kelly McGonigal. (audiobook is also well narrated)

It's well written and full of great methods for gaining your self control back.

Right, but I'm saying my setup is no different from the 'fraudsters' you describe, yet I have a seamless shopping experience online.

If I'm able to shop online without issues, why does everyone else 'need' an evercookie?

I'm sure it's helpful, it's the idea that it's necessary is what I take issue with.

It's "silent" because people weren't getting diagnosed properly before.

Why would you check for pneumonia in a guy that comes in presenting stab wounds and reports no difficulty breathing?

Only now because with increased testing and experience are doctors realizing that many people have a pneumonia that doesn't present like pneumonia.

Why are 'evercookies' necessary.

My browser is setup to record no history or cookies.

It can be annoying to always have to dismiss the same popups you've dismissed before, but I've never had any issues with online payments or unnecessary captchas, including using stripe.

What am I missing?

There is no evidence yet that immunity is even possible.

Until we know that, taking away healthcare workers, healthcare resources, and having volunteers willing to kill themselves is foolish, at best.

It's totally unreasonable.

There isn't enough quinine in tonic water to benefit you and the alcohol is going to leach nutrients that your body needs, lower your white blood cell count, kill good flora in your mouth, lower your body's immune response, and leave you more susceptible to catching the virus.

You shouldn't present nonsense as fact, it doesn't help anyone, and in this case is actively dangerous.

US/EU, and other laws all seem relevant.

What does this mean? In the US there is no law for this.

In the EU we have the GDPR which says you never get to own or control someone else's personal information without their permission.

Just because the info is leaked, that doesn't make it public domain. The data still belongs to the user, and the people that hold it should only ever be doing so with permission.
