  What I really fear about JW.ORG

  by StarTrekAngel in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  much has been written, twitted and youtubed about the extent to which the wtbts may go in order to keep its members from peeking out of the box.

  from name calling, constantly telling members about the dangers of apostasy, all the way to dfing anyone who dares to look outside.

  many tools and theories have been brought forward.

  hooo boy lots of tin foil hat. Yeah, they're not going to build backdoors into their apps. If they want to publish their apps on the iOS store and Google Play, that ain't happening. They're not going to monitor your browsing habits or have you authenticate with a set of credentials when using KH wifi. That stuff is all setup at the local level. Even if they wanted to centralize that, WT would have to work with dozens of ISPs (and that's just in the US). Not going to happen.

  I know a lot of people hate the WTS and have an axe to grind, but goddamn, it's amazing watching people lose their shit and come up with crazy theories about JW.ORG.

  If you wanted to run one of the OOOOOLD discs, you'd need to setup a Win95 VM. The benefit of the old ones are unaltered publications.

  so i travel alot for business and check into a hotel, start putting away my things and lo and behold in a bureau drawer, find a couple of wt's a couple of awake's and two tracts.

  1. throw them in the trash and forget about it.

  2. leave them where they lay and forget about it.. 3. leave a note for the housekeeper asking to lay off the cult recruitment.. 4. bring it to the attention of the management, and possibly get the housekeeper fired.. thanks for your input.

  Why do I keep reading here about a new "10 Hour Pioneer" arrangement?

  by RubaDub in

  there seems to be several discussions about a new 10 hour pioneer arrangement that was susposedly announced at the 2014 annual meeting.. i even called a couple who usually get invited each year and they said that there was nothing like that mentioned.

  they just mentioned the "new" stuff had to do with the jw tv thing, the language app, the changes regarding gog of magog, the talents, the virgins, etc.

  but absolutely nothing about 10 hour pioneers.. rub a dub.

  the whole meeting is online and there's no mention of it.

  just shows you can't believe everything you hear anywhere, including this site.

  blocking the site makes you no worse than the WTS

  tv.jw.org is great just for the meltdowns occurring on this board.

  "Roku Streaming Players are an open-platform device with a freely available SDK that enables anyone to create new channels."

  That explains why they have a Roku channel. It's free and anyone can make a channel.

  It's not really a huge deal to get your shit on Roku. They do it for pretty much anything.

  10hour BasicPioneer

  agno who was at the agm whilst posting didn't mention this.. however on a spanish website it was stated that this was mentioned about 10 am.. could it be a translation problem?

  that the spanish does not literally translate into basic pioneer?

  does anybody have quotes of that portion around 10 am?.

  I'm curious about this too. Ten hours is the minimum for being considered for any sort of privilege, so what's the point.

  hey remember when the internet was evil and the WTS literally said not to have it.

  Yeah now if you don't have it you're missing out on 'spiritual food' and are not keeping up with gods chariot or whatever.

  fuckers

  I doubt they'll go on cable or satellite radio. They'd have to pay the cable/satellite ridiculous carriage feeds. Satellite would pay them for the content and there's zero market for it. Online broadcasting is absolutely the way of the future (look at Netflix and their rapid growth of original content). I do give them credit for that. They went balls deep in this pretty quick.
