The massive breach of [insert] is attracting scrutiny from government officials across the country.

The [insert] announced on [insert] that it sent a letter to [insert] seeking answers about the extent of the breach and what [insert] is doing to mitigate its impact. In the House, [insert] Committee Chairman [insert] ld a hearing on the hacks at a to-be-determined date.

Sunday: Repent sinners! Just like like Revelations says, there will be a devastating hurricane to hit Gaaawwwds one and only country. Now let as sing "Down By The River" while we pass the offering.
Monday-Friday: It's global warming and it's all Trump's fault!
Saturday: On Discovery Channel, "According to Nostradamus..."
And this cycle of bullshit to milk ratings from people's ignorance and despair will repeat for the next few months.
I wonder what paying for a combination of Internet services like Netflix, HBO, Disney, Amazon, and etc. sounds like? Cable?....Is that you? Fuuuuuuuck that. The sad part is, I know too many people 20+ that would waste their money on a Disney version of Netflix.
They're not even specific as to where exactly they got the samples from. I need a PDF with a DOI number. Plastic found in plastic bottles?! NO..... Did they even test anyone's well water or or it just city drinking fountains? We don't know because they name people and only about a handful of numbers and no specifics but plenty of "We are all doomed." Maybe as a Linux user, I'm used to having source code, but I think I'd like to see the research paper for this.
If I were to have a dual boot setup with macOS and Linux, would the forced APFS break my computer? In other words, the article sounds as though it forces the entire solid state HD to APFS. And, if you have an entire SSD in APFS, would it prevent the installation of Linux, i.e. partitioning to a supported format?
How would a normal consumer know if they are trading in more than just their phone? People that rent smart cars constantly forget to ensure they aren't leaving private data behind.
Why do I have the feeling that this is a two edged sword? Unhackable, but why? If communication is tapped then they know immediately, but will they know who? Would all non-government approved quantum communication become illegal? Will VPN and and proxies still work? Proprietary private communication networks the government itself now holds the only key to? Good luck using Tor with this.
Firefox will have telemetry settings turned on by default so in order to turn them off, you have to launch Firefox, which then ironically sends telemetry data in the first place. So, all Firefox users phone home their computer info at least once regardless and are add-on free. I guess all of my new Firefox installs will be opened without the Internet on. Still better than Chrome's privacy.
An iPhone just for men. It loads a picture when you press unlock and waits. Wink wink. A "bricked" phone becomes a "Trumped" phone...Ha...eww. He just grabs his by the battery.
Actually, Stallman hates the word "open source." I'm not anit-money, I just think you have a bunch of young college students that got duped into being computer science majors and now
that everyone's a "developer" and the popular thing is "open source," 20 year olds that don't understand the philosophy and origins want to get paid for it when they could
be developing proprietary software & PC games and just let those that actually care about a FOSS project do what they do best. Your allusion to 1984 Soviet Union is also
innacurrate and probably has to do with your millenial mind-set and the book "1984." In the Soviet Union, science and technology were very heavily linked to politics and ideology
(much like in the U.S. today). They may have all been driving tanks for cars, but they were kicking ass in computers and engineering, especially Japan. Poor East Germany didn't get a break
though. Even the U.S. space program was built on Nazi tech and scientists. So...I'll just take what you said as a compliment.
Otherwise, it's not open source. Donations are only meant to fill in the gaps and not to be used as motivation. If you want to get payed to be "creative," get a Patreon account.
They need a compromised password feature like VeraCrypt so that if you have to give a password, you can but it only shows what you want them to see. This way, you not some poor guy held up in a jail cell for not cooperating. You technically gave them access. Matter of fact, I'd argue that password protected apps don't count in the same way as unlocking your phone. There are ways to lock any app on an iPhone if jailbroken.
First of all, love the H2G2 quote, but I think AES supports 512. It's the default level of encryption OpenSUSE asks during installation; it actually says "AES 512" on the screen. I could be wrong or misunderstanding, but that's what the installer says and my system immediately asks for a password before mounting my swap and home partitions during boot.
This is a diversion. They did the same thing with the rebel flag issue and a week later, gay marriage was passed federally. Except now, we have a republican president, Russian conspiracies, FCC nonsense, AI scares, Wiki Leaks, NASA funding issues, Dakota pipeline, etc., and all that we have gotten as news in the past week is neo-nazi, abortion, and sexist/agist fluff. When are protestors going to learn that they're their enemies' tools? That shit only works in the movies and most civil rights change occurred during a time when a determined person was feared rather than empathized. No one with intelligence and power to to truly change or ignore at their leaser is concerned with a generation that stumbles around a street, staring at a smart phone and posting to Facebook and Snap Chat every ten minutes just so their dumbasses can get extra credit for an ethics class.

They combine all of that together because Google is hoping you forget to turn off your photo sync settings. Let the biometrics flow....

Another thing duct tape is good for.
