Now that's my problem, i just felt for some reason you ought to know.
What's not to love?
I actually wonder if it's a US vs. Europe thing. The quaint psueo-germany setting was kinda cool to me, not that I'm a big SnK fan, but the first season definitely got some points for just being weird and off the wall.

I agree that it doesn't really matter who does the surveillance, although I think there is a significant difference between private sector data-mining and state surveillance in that privately held data is a court order (or less) away from being available to the state, while the opposite isn't true. As much as I'm sure they'd love to, Amazon generally can't pull your criminal record to try to sell ski masks and leather gloves to convicted burglars.
In some sense state surveillance encompasses corporate surveillance, what Amazon and Google know Big Brother also knows. But generally Amazon and Google aren't going to be exchanging your data with each other, or at least not without paying for it.
The point that power in both the public and private sectors generally flows from the same sources is a good one, I'm sure that Rupert Murdoch could get his hands on your files with the spy agencies if he really wanted to, but at least as of yet it's not really economically sensible for a profit-seeking corporate entity to do so at any kind of scale. But then this doesn't really make corporate data-gathering benign since that data is still trivially accessible to the actors who are more likely to send a death squad to your door.

a limiting case in which an element of a class of objects is qualitatively different from the rest of the class and hence belongs to another, usually simpler, class. Degeneracy is the condition of being a degenerate case.

Which i thought kind of looked like Asm, but the old shellcode from the C file looks all kinds of messed up. Not quite sure if that's how it's supposed to look. Because usually when i have a Binary Asm file it looks like below.
That is assembly, the assembler directives (e.g. ".ascii") might be syntax you haven't seen before. As the name suggests, they direct the assembler to do some operation. Sometimes it's a shorthand for something that would be more cumbersome to write out in assembly or sometimes it controls the binary layout.
One thing to note is that "binary ASM file" is a bit of an oxymoron. People aren't always super precise with the language, but "assembly" files are still text files and non-executable, only after they go through the assembler do you get an actual binary that can be executed. This is also why the output of gcc to assembly looks different from what a disassembler spits out. The ASM produced my a compiler can still use directives and symbolic names like "shellcode", because the assembler will resolve these to addresses. Once assembly and linking happens though, the symbolic names and directives are dropped and actual addresses are burned into the binary, the disassembler can't reverse these operations so you typically won't see meaningful labels like "shellcode" in the disassembly, even though they're present in the ASM source.

I think I'm going to open a bar as a semi-retirement plan. A little place, maybe 20 seats. I'll get behind the bar and make the drinks some nights, play the piano for the patrons, hopefully make enough to cover my booze. I think it will be a pretty chill gig, not like there's ever a lack of demand for alcohol.

The people who think a website can't get your MAC are the same people who think Santa is real and slides down everyone's chimneys on Christmas to bring nice presents to the white people's kids. It's really not all that hard to get it. For example, one could simply maliciously install a native app on the local machine which can then get the MAC and forward it to some remote location for pickup. One could also drop some obfuscated shellcode through the browser and access the local system, and thus the MAC. That's just a couple of ways. There are more. If you have someone who knows what they are doing, the sky is the limit.

Getting blocked from a website has nothing to do with your MAC address. MAC addrs are only relevant between adjacent pairs of nodes and as source MAC address is generally not transmitted in multi-hop network operations.
