The front fell off. It's perfectly normal. They towed it out of the environment.

No one said we were (_more_ concerned).

This is such a specious argument and yet repeated ad nauseam. Please stop. For one, it doesn't make the listening and harvesting of data ok, just because it may already be happening. Also, it's just condescending. You don't think the parent or other people of reasonable intelligence and valid concern haven't thought about that? Then, it also just misses the point anyway -- no, I'm not OK with my cell phone harvesting anything and everything it can get (cadence of my walk, say). Yes, I like having access to maps on the go. These concerns aren't mutually exclusive, and most of us choose not to live like Stallman. We still live in a rich and complex ecosystem of law and precedence, highly dependent on where we are on a given day, what nationality we are, etc. None of that invalidates the quite reasonable expectation to privacy (not to mention that solutions exist such as opt-in, but cavalier people working in tech choose instead the race to the bottom of privacy and chasing cost-per-click).

None of which invalidates these concerns. You just fall into category 1 or 3.

Skimming just the abstract:

> Consequently, an ocean tide on ancient Venus could have had significant effects on the rotational history of the planet

The implication seems to be that we could answer whether Venus once had water, based on the orbital history of the Earth (over very long time frames), I guess?
