It got panned by people who didn't know what they were buying, but knew enough to not like something different. It's that treacherous middle-ground of kinda-sorta-ish knowing what they're doing and hating anything that isn't exactly what they learned on. High- and low-level users got exactly what they wanted.
"Over the Internet" doesn't have to mean "over an unencrypted direct HTTP connection to an Internet-facing device". It should have been behind a VPN if outside access was needed.
Er, no? How about take away the privilege by default, and require that the user enable the ability install potentially insecure apps? Those of us who are responsible with our devices shouldn't have to pay the maker of our preferred OS to toggle a setting.
Even if there were some sort of compatibility requirement to use the card (which seems unlikely, since that'd be a huge obstacle to overcome), you'd still only have to carry the universal card and one backup. You'd have to carry cash around regardless, though, so I don't see how that's a factor.
Just having a card should definitely not be enough for a support person to let you take over someone's Google account
You use the application on your phone to change the card it draws from. Maybe they'll even offer to associate certain merchants with certain cards. Who knows?
1. You have five debit/credit cards in your wallet.
2. You get a Google Wallet card to combine all the cards into one.
3. You now have one card in your wallet and five cards stored somewhere safe.
There's a difference between "shouldn't spark" and "will never spark, ever". Especially in environments where there is the possibility of a release of explosive gases.

You almost had me. Happy April Fools Day to you, too.

Regardless of the system, an incompetent privileged user is always going to be a vulnerability.
Advanced, persistent threat.
Milestone has a free version that'll record for... a week, I think? Also, VideoIQ cameras have built-in analytics, along with some Bosch cameras.
Exactly. Thank you.
The solution.
If someone's PC gets a bootkit, they're already damn well past the point of having to worry about the MBR.
It was discussed in 1984. "Dec. 3 is the 20th anniversary of the sending of the first SMS text message." 1992.
thus preventing people from using their hardware as they see fit.
FTFY
Is there an issue with pointing out obvious shills?
But is that due to a lack of standard conformance on the part of LibreOffice or Microsoft?
Now try to get the common consumer to understand that.

With Google's card if someone had my card they'd have gained access to all my accounts at once.
This is completely wrong, unless they also broke into your Wallet account at the same time.
No, it'd go more like this:
1. You have five debit/credit cards in your wallet.
2. You get a Google Wallet card to combine all the cards into one.
3. You now have one card in your wallet and five cards stored somewhere safe.
The idea is that instead of carrying several credit and debit card, you carry one card that charges whatever your currently active GWallet card is.
The harm is that they're not willing to meet halfway. DNT is just going to be ignored if they don't play nice.

Doesn't the answer to such questions usually turn out to be "cost"?
