I don't know if Huawei can be trusted. I do know that anyone mistrusting Huawei that still trusts Cisco is naive. I don't know if this warning will get to anyone in time, or if it will be heeded. I do know this post will be aggressively attacked by sock puppet moderation and astro-turfing trolls.
You guys both think you're funny, but you're actually highlighting the really horrifying facet of this problem here. You might be able to tell yourselves "It's fine I'll just use GPG too." but for the vast majority of the population and major institutions, security is effectively dead now, and they're trying to alter their business plans to adapt to making money in an environment where the forgone conclusions are that no system is secure-able and the only thing left with any value is your stolen identity.
I saw a (I think) Mythbusters episode about this once. The cockroaches were actually still too big to be immune to the radiation. Despite the common popular belief about this, they did rather poorly, actually. Some much smaller insect was just the right size. Some gnat or fruit fly or something. I forget exactly what.
Well, you'd better hurry up and finish reading that course material fast, "WW2 history buff" because what you're currently complicit with allowing them to do on Facebook is exactly how they got into power before WW2.
All they're doing is maximizing accuracy of targeting. They don't care of who. Coincidentally, extremists tend to post images and text that are easier for software to target algorithmically. Also apparently coincidentally, extremists tend to also be destructive and immoral.
Iranians are Persian, not Arabic. Why are you so racist if you care about how racist other people are? Is it possible you're more racist than you yourself find acceptable, but are somehow completely unaware of your bullshit double-standard?
I hate having to do this, but part of the reason that was possible for them to do was due to the fact the community allowed the dilution of the context of the terms "free" and "open" as they pertained to the Open Source software movement. I think that due to this (and despite the fact that I personally don't like the sound of the word) it is important that we distinguish "free" and "open" in this context with another word like "libre" which has been promoted for disambiguation of the terms "free" and "open" as they pertain to source code.
I was thinking of something along the lines of a carpet-bomb mesh-network deployment for restoring networking for existing communications devices in disaster areas. I heard that a big problem getting relief to survivors after hurricane Maria was just finding them. Getting in contact with people now isolated in densely forested areas after the existing infrastructure had been destroyed isn't a problem that should have taken weeks to solve. That could have been fixed in a couple hours of flyovers, with "IoT" technology we already have.
It might be hard to believe this, but the materials that modern speakers are made of these days are very close to the theoretical optimal balance between durability and flexibility. They're doing this because they can make the phone tougher by sacrificing some sound quality. My concern is just that any video with too much bass is gonna blur the screen, so they've actually in one fell swoop sabotaged both the viewing quality and the listening quality with a cost-cutting feature they're gonna be able to trick people into paying extra for.
Disgusting. And to think that there's people in this thread afraid the worst problems will be delayed access to firmware updates. What a joke.

Yea, too bad ipv6 is so insecure that you could march a singing army through it unnoticed.
Yawn. You lost me at blockchain. That's not gonna secure shit, but it will waste enough spare computing resources to cure cancer twice.

Heroic. (no sarcasm)
Girls speaking in unison: "We just knew."
I'm pretty sure there was an X-files episode about this.

...it becomes a monopoly issue.
No, no it doesn't. That is not the legal definition of a monopoly just because you want something to fit your argument.
Because the breakup of this particular block of ice threatens an international weather satellite monitoring station. The satellites are in space.
Or you know, just even rogue airline employees with a grudge and a boot disk.
Guys! We got the president himself posting here!

He's alluding to his willingness to let everyone outside of Hong Kong die en masse to prove a egotistical point about cellphone patents.

There is no question that some of these trolls are being paid to disrupt discussion on specific topics.

None of these types of professors believe that anyone can learn anything without their personal assistance.
He allowed a foreign 3rd-party, corporate, for-profit, non-government entity beat them to figuring out how to maximize the features of the platform.
