I recall listening to a cassette that would go through the alphabet, like a song. I tried hard, but never really got the hang out of it. But this time, Morsle would build the bridge more easily.

Upon registering for an account on Clicked.com to access intro cybersecurity courses, I encountered a field inquiring about my sexual orientation. I'm uncertain as to why Clicked.com would collect such data. I wonder if this is a growing trend among career-oriented online platforms (or anything common really).
Is this asked for diversity and inclusion purposes? Are they simply collecting data to resell or marketing purpose? What is your take on it?

"Sign in with Google" is a show-stopper.
Yes, and it's not possible to delete the account (or association with).

A very interesting project. Btw, I could not find a way to delete my account when created. I've also found that the generated report is very generic and quickly goes outside the actual question or specific theme/keywords used.
A final point, the notice states that "The risks associated with this study are minimal. Study data will be stored securely, in compliance with Stanford University standards, minimizing the risk of confidentiality breach." When I use STORM, I can see other people's request. Are they supposed to be confidential?

I recall a quote from Mr. Gaiman:
“Fairy tales are more than true: not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― Neil Gaiman, Coraline

"As of the date of this filing, the incident has not had, and we do not believe it is reasonably likely to have, a material impact on our overall business operations or on our financial condition or results of operations. We continue to evaluate the risks and our remediation efforts are ongoing"
Ah, All is well then. It has no material impact on your business.
So, the 600'000'000 affected customers can kindly go and fuck themselves?
Sounds like the Equifax breach response ;) nothing to worry I guess
My biggest wishlist item for S3 is the ability to enforce that an object is named with a name that matches its hash. (With a modern hash considered secure, not MD5 or SHA1, though it isn't supported for those either.) That would make it much easier to build content-addressible storage.
