Yeah we all know that once law enforcement gets access to something they NEVER ask again. The disengenuousness of people claiming this is only about one phone is astounding.
Don't allow them to set weak passwords. If you allow your users to set weak passwords, expect them to set weak passwords.
Users will set the weakest password you will let them get away with. You can try to set all sorts of arcane rules and yet users will still find ways to make weak passwords.
As far as writing it down goes, you're never going to stop that. I've come across users that wrote down even the simplest of passwords; forcing harder passwords is not going to change that.
Forcing them to constantly change their password is going to KEEP them doing it.
Your argument is worthless as long as we're talking about passwords. Once there is a working replacement for passwords, your argument has merit.
It's only "worthless" if you don't actually really care about opsec. Enjoy your users' accounts being easy to break in to.
simple solution - expire passwords at random time intervals
Which is itself a stupid policy and has been proven time and time again to only lead users to choosing weaker passwords, writing their passwords down, etc. so they can remember them.
So extremely wealthy for a tiny minority and grinding poverty for the majority is better than everyone being poor
Of course it is. The rich are our betters and we should all grin and bear it when they piss on us so that their opulent lifestyles don't get interrupted.
Sure, Castro ended up being just as bad as Batista in many ways. Yet, people like ArmoredDragon seem to try to act as if Cuba was some sort of glorious utopia of egalitarianism during the Batista years when it couldn't be further from the truth.
Yes, Cuba was indeed "somwhat wealthy" in that 99% of the country was poor while the top percent had all the power and wealth. Oh and let's not forget the brutal dictator running the place. But dictatorships are cool as long as the dictator is pro-US right?
But women back then did complain about things such as being paid 30 to 50 cents on the dollar that men made. They also weren't very fond of the rampant sexism.
Good to see the KDE defenders are bringing back the same bogus line of blaming people for *gasp* using KDE 4 when it first came out. It's not *KDE's* fault it's *your's* for actually using it!
So then the claims that Firefox isn't being included anymore because its "superior security" is just a huge joke. Which was, you know, the whole point me laughing at the person.

Nope. Network speeds are power of 10.
They do share the results with the project they analyze. They specifically mention that in every one of these articles they write.
There's no word on exactly which model of iPhone was recovered
Huh? The article clearly states a model:
According to NBC News, the model in question is an iPhone 5c

Ringo isn't even involved. As stated, this was someone breaking into the email of the guy who runs Ringo's Twitter account.
Probably quite a lot of them. You don't actually think celebrities are making all those posts to Facebook and Twitter themselves, right?

Duh, it was posted by timmay. So that means it will usually be full of grammar/spelling errors and/or just be plain misleading and wrong.
Because Cuba was an egalitarian utopia with no poverty under Batista?

And how was it also not equally true of gold itself?
So then don't release code you don't want people using instead of blaming users for using your buggy, shit code you released to the public.

The US government has also bemoaned dictators while also having a long history of installing and supporting dictators.
This just in: politicians are hypocritical assholes.
And unfortunately you can't even blame Timmay on this occasion.

+5 funny. Firefox drops every year at Pwn2Own. So that "superior security" doesn't seem to actually amount to much in real life.
Decrease monthly data quotas, charge more and reap more profits.

They are the fab for Apple's processors. They do not design them.
"Permanent" in context means that they don't have to keep renewing the law.
