The article doesn't go into technical details, but if this guy developed an independent programmer and key generator, he may not be under contract with Motorola at all and it's not [yet] illegal to write software to mod devices.
The police department more than likely is under contract and apparently used that software to engage in theft of services (and possibly copyrighted software) from Motorola.
I'm sure they'll want to scapegoat him anyway, as cops very rarely face punishments for their misdeeds.
If you get the spirit of the US Bill of Rights, it's that a low level of crime will be tolerated to ensure freedom and transparency of government.
Certain states go further - in New Hampshire, 'officers and magistrates' are accountable to the people 'at all times'. In its framing, the People are explicitly supreme to the employees of the State. They're not legally allowed to hide and ambush the People (they do anyway of course because the Rule of Law is out the window).
If your only choices were protecting HIPAA information and ensuring government accountability, then you would sacrifice the HIPAA privacy. It's not sacrosanct - it's just a statute that may not violate the Constitution.
I once spoke with a Representative who was against police body cameras because in the event of a no-knock SWAT raid somebody might be undressed. I asked him where in the Constitution such raids were authorized and how he thought that unpresented warrants might be legal and he rapidly changed the subject. I didn't let him get away with that and told him to tackle the real problems.
You have to watch out for these sociopath types - they'll make every inch you give them into a treacherous mile.
The wealthiest tech company in the world's biggest product for more than a year is a marginally better pair of wireless headphones? This is the company that was playing "Knowledge Navigator" at Epcot in the 80's.
The Watch is only popular among people who didn't mind wearing the Casio calculator. People who insist on fashion aren't even in the market and that would have killed Jobs's soul. Even Motorola's watches are more stylish.
If anything Apple should be praised for ongoing software improvements to enable lifestyle computing with a half-decent security architecture (unless you live in China). The most likely next Apple product won't have a screen - it'll be AI-powered helpers that make a difference to normal people. How much more does iPad hardware need to improve, really?
Unfortunately they're pricing themselves out of the normal-people market at the same time. It's not clear what their mission even is going into the 2020's.
It's important to note that abort is at MaxQ - the point in flight of maximum aerodynamic pressure. Yes, it's above Mach 1, but the reason is that if crew escape works there it works everywhere else.
Since the inside of Falcon 9 will be exposed to atmosphere at MaxQ without a fairing it is expected that the vehicle will be a total loss. They are using a thrice-landed vehicle for the launch, probably without legs or fins to minimize costs.
This is a little bit off-topic, but there's some interesting stuff on that interview about big tech, and especially the references to the person who rage-quit Facebook, took the deplatforming documents with her, and gave it to Veritas. Not to mention Google's collaboration with China and tech centralization which both are tangentially relevant to Elastic Search (we all know these crappy unsecure sites are usually run by numbskulls on AWS).
That aside, this podcast is so hilarious at times that I laughed until there were tears in my eyes several times.
NPR? Literally founded by CIA operatives, directly funded by the State, and obsessed with politics (they relegate science to 2 hours a week, when that's what fuels our economy). The economics show is purely Keynesian, for instance - anything not pro-State is verboten.
Most middle class people have credit that is neither shit nor perfect and they finance their cars. Taking a years-long hit to your credit score to take a test drive is stupid.
This may be easy for millionaires but taking a hard credit inquiry to do a test drive? Is Tesla planning to abandon the argument that the Model 3 is a sensible middle-class vehicle?
I don't often encounter coffee shops playing music and I frequently use them for short meetings. But Starbucks is never a consideration so that might be part of it.
I think Panera sometimes has light jazz on, but that's another corporate chain. Locally owned is best.
Most of mine already have a Patreon. That and sponsored videos seem to be most of their revenue.
Nobody depends on AdSense revenue since at least the Adpocylypse.
Can you name a single channel that started on Patreon funding, rather than moved to Patreon after having an AdSense revenue stream (or some other independent revenue stream)?
Yes, established channels are doing well (if they didn't say something off-color in a radio interview) but new channels are not getting started anymore. There needs to be a path for organic growth.
Slashdot Mirror
yeah, yeah, back when the Constitutional Convention was going on in Philly and California was a Spanish colony, Berkeley is where it all began.
Tell that to somebody with smallpox or polio or cervical cancer from HPV. Or the family of someone who died in one of the recent measles outbreaks.
Sign me up. Do you have a family that is advocating the use of violence to foece people to use a certain modern technology? I'll call them out on it.
:sigh: You clicked, you commented, they won.
Why is the key giver not in jail?

Yeah, why have one general purpose IoT device rather than two dozen single-purpose IoT devices? Heaven forbid I change the WPA2 key.
Polaris? The North Star?
Somebody must think those are sexual positions, eh?
Betcha the UC traffic spikes.

Look up hard credit inquiries then.
Most middle class people have credit that is neither shit nor perfect and they finance their cars. Taking a years-long hit to your credit score to take a test drive is stupid.

Reddit doesn't control it or get a cut. Works well.
20% off with 1000 miles on it? Yes, please.

buy something quality
It was people who bough Cisco routers who got NSA implants, not people buying Netgear.
I don't often encounter coffee shops playing music and I frequently use them for short meetings. But Starbucks is never a consideration so that might be part of it.

It's hilarious that's you haven't seen the iXpand drives on the flash drive shelf at Walmart, where normal non-techies buy them for everyday use.
Don't believe Proton's claims. They won't let you make an account without one of:
They say they offer private mail but go try to make an account over Tor or pay with XMR and see how you do.
They've also wiped old accounts that were made privately.
It has all the signs of being a honeypot. Be informed and beware.
Those fail the requirements of not needing a CA and not needing separate keys from separate websites. SQRL gets these right.
I'm sure it's "secure" but Nature finds a way.
Parts of Mexico and the US Southwest aren't so different from parts of Africa. I can't imagine why anybody would think those bees would have trouble.
It's cool. Just don't buy any food that comes from farmers who drive a car. Or people who manufacture things. Maybe like subway cars.
