I wondered about this, is there a reason this 'leak' gets so much credibility?

it's possible that the paper has some other information to verify the source but given what i know about journalism it could just as likely be something some bored tosser put together in ten minutes and sold to a gullible journalist

i searched a line on my bank statement to figure out where i spent $53 at and found someone sharing all their credit card statements and bills from 2005-2013 along with various family photos and videos on an ftp server from their home computer or file server or something

should i tell them that their credit card statements are in google now

that's probably a misconfigured asus ai cloud router, they were spewing everyones connected hd's over ftp if you set home sharing on or smth. upload too. if you're a good guy drop a text file informimg them of this.

danish postal service owned until they sold it off to private hands. since then, the rates have gone up & reliability has gone down.

i dont get why govts dont understand that infrastructure absolutely needs to be on govt hands and should not ever be beholden to stock holders.

e: also rail, phone copper, etc

e2: socialize the lot & pay the loss thru taxes, the whole country will be better off even tho some retards may moan

its gotten so bad that left-center parties are no longer left enough to maintain the status quo here. the big left-center parties have - from a majority position - voluntarily dismantled large sections of the welfare state their own predecessors fought so hard to construct. it literally blows my mind: my mind is kaput

that sounds like a thing they would do in holland or germany. we have the old national service and then a bunch of contractors but the old one still has the contracts for most things like ads, most periodicals, govt letters, etc. i mean by far they have the most items go thru there.

i have the no-spam badge on my mailbox so i get physical mail maybe bimonthly (and yet i check my mailbox every day like an idiot)

you can actually get down to 12 usd/hr if you are without qualifications, younger than 18, e: and only work daytime hrs

but then theres the taxes that pay for our obamacare so it works out in the end

i long for the days when it did cost 3.75 kroner to send a standard letter anywhere in denmark

now its like 8 kroner or something insane like that

(historical exchange rates considered, it was in my childhood 50c and is now 1.50 dollars so, we have indeed gotten the long end of the postal stick)
