The difference was dramatic. The American Mayan children who have access to better food are, on average, six inches taller than those raised in Guatemala.* http://abcnews.go.com/Health/malnutrition-severe-stunting-gu...
"Inside the agency’s Maryland headquarters and its campuses around the country, N.S.A. employees have been subjected to polygraphs and suspended from their jobs in a hunt for turncoats allied with the Shadow Brokers. Much of the agency’s arsenal is still being replaced, curtailing operations. Morale has plunged, and experienced specialists are leaving the agency for better-paying jobs — including with firms defending computer networks from intrusions that use the N.S.A.’s leaked tools.

I'm sorry but Kaspersky gets NSA files and deletes them, instead of handing them to FSB? Nope, I don't believe it. You can get away with xx murders in exchange for that
And that's the most generous assumption--that Kaspersky wasn't looking for them
So, any idea what type of matter would it be created?
Maybe the market is deciding? Mashable sold for $50 Million which is no chump change but way less than last year.

Of course, you can say who are we to decide that "John" in North Korea should die for freedom...
First they are prepping for an IPO and need to clean up image.
Second, is being impartial even possible, short of some super-duper AI that after being programmed by biased programmers cleans itself of the bias?
