No it doesn't. The problem here is not just that you can unlock the car, it's that you can recover the secret key and make a duplicate key. Then you can start and drive the car all you like, access it whenever you want rather then just once.
Not sure what this claim about Tesla pioneering keyless entry in the summary is either. Lots of cars had it long before Tesla came along.
"In subsequent email exchanges with the Paragon team, ZDNet understands that at the heart of the issue may be the confusing WebAuthn documentation released by the FIDO Alliance team, which, for legacy purposes, categorizes both algorithms as "required" (for RSASSA-PKCS1-v1_5) and "recommended" (two ECDAA-based algorithms)."
TL;DR they adopted an older standard to avoid building something from scratch, and there is some old and poorly worded advice in the documentation.
That's fair enough. I do restrict some sites to no third party content and cookies etc, but I find that also breaks a lot of sites that I need. Things like online banking, booking flights, property search and so forth.
You have a choice for your ad-supported content. Ads from random sources that you don't trust and which may contain malware, or ads from Google that are at least safe.
Oh, but you have an ad blocker? Well it's much easier to consistently block Google ads with zero side effects than it is to block every other random ad server in existence.
I'm not saying it's ideal, but given the choice I'll take the safe and easy to block Google ads.
Even common carriers are obligated to address problems on their networks. If someone is making harassing phone calls to you then the phone company is obligated to help deal with that, even if they are not responsible for the harassment.
Something like Star Trek's Prime Directive but for tech? Seems reasonable, I mean look at how hard it's been for people in developed nations to cope with the rapid evolution of the internet and imagine what would happen if millions of people were thrown in at the deep end.
For as long as I can remember Chinese chat/social media apps have warned users when they detect things being forwarded more than once or certain language. It's a bit crude, for example the word "annoying" in almost any context triggers it, but at least they are trying. And before some over-reacts, apparently calling someone "annoying" is a common form of bullying in China and you shouldn't try to compare it to the same word in English.
Trump didn't engineer the improved relations between the Koreas. Kim did that. He pushed to it the brink, proved that the US couldn't do anything now he has nukes on missiles, and then sued for peace when his own power and future were secured.
There were accusations of dumping. Some argue that it was really just the Japanese managing to cost reduce faster than everyone else. Japanese systems of the day do show some interesting cost savings that Philips machines didn't... Even the Philips tapes had big brass rollers in them, when VHS and Beta had both adopted an all plastic design.
You don't understand the situation in the EU at the time. Often the manufacturers owned the retailers too. Panasonic and Sony both have their own chain of shops to this day.
The sale price was wholesale price + % margin. If the wholesale price goes up the sale price goes up. And these were not cheap items, VCRs back the were in the 500-1000 UKP range.
This is basic economics. The margins on items at he cheap end of the scale are almost always lower. By keeping prices high for every machine on the market with the tariffs the Japanese manufacturers felt the inevitable price pressure and VCRs became more and more commoditized later than they otherwise would have. There is a lot less pressure on price and margin at the 500+ level than at the 50+ level.
By 1984 even Philips were making VHS machines, and getting screwed by their own tariffs.
These were video recorders, with the Philips ones costing in the region of £500-1000 back then. That's 1982 money, so add inflation.
The tariffs were designed to push the Japanese VHS machines up in price to that level. The retailers didn't reduce their margins, they kept them at say 100%. The margin was dictated by things like how reliable the machines were, and thus how much they could expect to pay out in warranty repairs and replacements, as well as other retail costs. And since many of the retailers were owned by the manufacturers that meant more profit for them.
He doesn't seem to know what a supply chain is either. To build a tariff free iPhone in the US would require new mines, many factories, infrastructure... Assuming Apple decided to build all that they would pass the cost on to the consumer.
In the early 80s it was a three way fight for home video recording. You had VHS, Betamax and the Phillips Video 2000 system. The first two were all Japanese machines, the latter were made by Phillips in Europe.
The Phillips format was technically great. But it came third in that race. Philips got the EEC (precursor to the EU) to put massive tariffs on Japanese machines to make them cost the same as Phipps' ones, but all that did was increase profit margins for Japanese companies and relieve price pressure on their manufacturing.
In the end Phillips started selling VHS machines, but got screwed by their own tariffs because they had to buy the mechanism in from Matsushita who made it in Japan.
The problem with all these attempts to make C safe is that they tend to break all the stuff that makes C useful. Type punning is the classic example, or pointer manipulation.
There are better languages if you need that kind of thing. For other purposes C is the only option precisely because it isn't safe.
Actually Google provides better privacy for users.
Your ISP can directly connect your DNS queries to you. Google just sees a query from an IP address and that could be your VPN service. At least, it's no worse than your ISP.
Ads are dangerous. They often contain malware. Google is by far the best when it comes to checking ads for malware and limiting them to text and a malware scanned link. Also, you can really easily block them. So AMP pages are great if you like your privacy.
For webmasters I don't know, but there hasn't been a big backlash from the major content providers so I'm guessing it can't be that bad. But for users it's great.
The worst part is that the more you try to stop China "stealing" your IP, the fewer American made parts they will buy and the more money they will invest in developing their own technology. After Trump came to power there was a big investment in developing Chinese high end cellular chips for phones, for example, because suddenly there is good business case for investing those billions.
Except that the $100 cut isn't applied to everyone evenly, and neither is the $10 increase. And the $100 cut means some people lose services they were relying on to live, while others just pocket $100+.

It's like you can read just enough to be outraged, but not enough to comprehend.
They have a Bluetooth based system too, but it's still in beta and doesn't work with a lot of phones.
No it doesn't. The problem here is not just that you can unlock the car, it's that you can recover the secret key and make a duplicate key. Then you can start and drive the car all you like, access it whenever you want rather then just once.

Well the phone companies cut off people who use their phones for spamming and other ToS violations too.

What does that have to do with this situation?
Also, most phone companies offer caller ID precisely so you can screen callers before picking up. It's rather necessary for them to stay in business.

Give me a specific example and I'll explain why you are wrong.

At best Trump's role was "useful idiot".

The main innovation was a crystal discipled tracking system that made the picture more stable, especially when paused or in fast forward.
This happened before in Europe.

In the UK they legally have to log. Google doesn't because it's not an ISP.
Depends where you live. $60k is not enough to be comfortable around here.
Sure, but these days www.domain.com is probably a cache in front of a bunch of virtual servers on a CDN somewhere.
