... look at these Android apps that either track shit or have extraordinary permissions.
For Instagram: android.permission.GET_ACCOUNTS
find accounts on the device
Allows the app to get the list of accounts known by the phone. This may include any accounts created by applications you have installed.
Voice patterning calls for clipping the amplitude of the signal and analyzing the frequencies along the baseline.
Further filtering eliminates the constant, repetitive, background noise.
It's a sophisticated technique that's been around for many tears.
When I was in the Navy (US), we listened for submarines using aircraft and sonobouys, eliminating sounds from schools of fish and shrimp, and even our own carrier.
Regarding TFS, the answer is:
Brokers should do whatever it takes to run their business, as long as it works.
I got my first computer in 1978 (TRS-80) and I've been doing digital shit ever since.
Appreciate that computers were standalone devices and like every other innovation (think cars and seat belts), people, including me, were very poor at predicting the future where every goddam computer in the world touch every other goddam computer in the world.
Going back to 1978, the OS had no need to self-protect because the only method of input was the keyboard and the only output was the monitor.
That "air gap" beginning set us up for failure in the future.
Once floppies hit and computers first got "social," the tech-savvy lulz peeps feasted on the vulnerable core of the OS.
Hobbyists launched the PC, and that culture exists today where the user is expected to be knowledgeable regarding consumer electronics.
From the business side, it's damned near impossible to retrofit OS for security and even harder to roll out a completely new, secure OS.
Security is expensive, even when it comes to keeping up with patches, and consumers want inexpensive stuff.
The next step is litigation against the vendors and gatekeepers of the data.
... and the firewall logs showed everybody and their uncle, from all over the world, trying to get in.
What I did was go to the registry and change the standard port from 3389 to the last 4 digits of our front office telephone and block 3389 inbound/outbound at the firewall.
Those with remote desktop privileges had to append the new port to the RDP request:
Well done.
This.
The first thing people do is go for the old Windows 7 desktop look and feel.
And home desktops.
... when the fuck did that ever happen?

People wearing sunglasses still look like intruders, so the alarm will still go off.
Understood and appreciated.
I was addressing the point about reliability.
It's a very mature process. I was in the Navy ca. Moby Dick Was A Minnow (1965-1974).
We analyzed all manner of sound waves (and radio as well).
For example, we captured the sound signatures of all submarines we could, especially Russian.
Each vessel had characteristic audio that came from cavitation, reefers, bad bearings, pumps, etc.
Sound recognition has come a long way since then.

Didn't see BitTorrent.
One is addressed in the US Constitution?
... because I know the answer.

Reading TFA, it's not an adult job.
... quit.
And for orphans?
Why would it be clever if it pointed somewhere else?
That does not get me in.
And, foreign (and even domestic) intruders don't bother looking for misdirected ports.
There are enough easy targets on 3389.
Your points are well taken.
The RDP attacks, however, were simple (back then) and scripted.
It's sorta like having burglar bars.
Crooks will pass those up and look for easier targets.
Thanks, I have noted down that you are gullible.

You way overestimate the existence of the word, "warrant," in my post.

That stopped that shit.
Your ? implies that Apple is the one and only secure device?
... because it sells Apple stuff.
Consumers want secure devices and Apple knows damn well that if they provide access, buyers will move on to the company that says they won't.
It's modded up now, as it should be.
Had I been carrying points, I certainly would have tried to make it visible to the casual reader.
Why is this modded down?
Every mother fucker on /. knows it to be the case.
... America concentrating on education from elementary and middle school through high school.
That's the track that fails.
Students don't know the difference between bullshit and wild honey as it is.
