If T-Sprint can't legally exist, when there is still AT&T and Verizon to compete with them, then what's the case for a company like Google not being broken up?
They've been openly selling that access to businesses for at least 10 years. Anyone who's been on a Facebook sales call as an employee of a major corporation knows this.
All this leak highlights is how unwitting the general populace is about what's done with the PII they put online.
It's not really a gray area. Wikileaks/Assange coerced Manning into committing crimes and attempted to assist in the commission.
We don't know that as fact. That's what the prosecution is claiming, but no evidence supporting that claim has been presented. Considering who he is to the U.S. government, they have motive to lie about this, so the evidence needs to be rock solid.
Examples include secret recordings, trespassing, and taking prohibited photographs.
And those are still crimes. The journalist runs the risk of being arrested for them, regardless of their justification for wanting info (which is subjective opinion). A state sponsored "journalist" certainly isn't working for the greater good if they trespass to get info.
Also, there's an even bigger difference between trespassing to get info and picking a lock before you trespass.
If the US actually has correspondence between Assange and Manning, where Assange offers to crack a password (successful or not), then it would completely destroy Wikileak's pure journalism claims and Assange is guilty of attempted espionage.
The question at hand is whether they actually have that hard evidence or if they just finally broke Manning, who was tortured for years in a solitary + lack of sleep environment, and got her to say that Assange offered to assist.
There is nothing wrong with expecting ethics to outweigh profit. Is a shipowner who transports slaves considered innocent if they are moving them between countries that have legalized slavery, or are we rightfully outraged by the presence of a slave trader?
I know nobody who likes it. Everyone in my office who has this latest generation, including me, avoids the built in keyboard if at all possible. Two people have had popped off, broken keys that required going to the mall to turn in the computer for over a week.
Both can be true. If you apply yourself and continue to refine your abilities you will almost assuredly end life on a higher rung of the economic ladder than you started.
The rich are also going to buy their way into things. The two aren't mutually exclusive.
a new way to launder money for propaganda subreddits like r/politics. "Oh, isn't this comment declaring AOC a misunderstood genius just marvelous? He're a $20 tip, random user I've never met" *wink wink*.
Not a prerelease movie that has gotten a lot of "culture war" press. I'm not surprised that a lot of people would go out of their way to say they're weren't interested in it.
Not the same. Muscle mass plays heavily into these results. More muscle => higher metabolism => better heart health. These types of studies, usually done by people who aren't fitness experts, omit key correlations, such as the dietary habits of someone who cares to be able to do more than 40 pushups, and how that helps heart health as well.
Note: this doesn't mean that more muscle is automatically good, but you have to get into bodybuilder/powerlifter territory before it starts having a negative impact.
Now they're building AI to construct persuasive arguments for any given position? It's amazing to watch the next millennia's caste system slowly come into fruition.
... and it's still gimmicky bullshit. The company LayAR built almost the exact same thing in 2010! They pivoted to the same old "put a 3D model on a picture" gimmick that was done for the Lego store in 2011.
Remember how, in Die Hard, the terrorists believed that they were fighting for a greater cause? Didn't change the fact that they were fucking terrorists.
1) It's not clear that he'll just sit on it, especially considering he hasn't told a soul what it actually is. He could sell it on the black market and nobody would know it was this exact expoit.
2) You said yourself that it's six figure exploit. You can have someone killed in the low fives.
3) If it's a six figure exploit why wouldn't he be receiving credible offers?
Is he just going to sit on it if Apple doesn't pay? Assuming this isn't all LARPing, do you think he's safe walking around with such a valuable 0day and supposedly altruistic intentions? Do you think he's not already getting seven figure crypto offers for it?
The way he went about this shows that the guy is already ethically compromised.
In "protest of a lack of bug bounties" this individual is:
1. Posting a YouTube video showing a purported P1, 0day security exploit.
2. Not releasing any information on how to reproduce or resolve their expoit.
3. Holding out for Apple to pay a "bug bounty" (read: ransom)
We're through the looking glass is this is what qualifies as "security research" nowadays.
Sidewalk Labs explains that Replica’s data is purchased from telecommunications companies and companies that aggregate mobile location data from different apps.
But I thought AT&T, Sprint and T-Mobile stated that they'll no longer sell location data...

I say this as a general supporter of Wikileaks:

I've had a disk free XBox for years, after my toddler shoved crap in the DVD slot and broke it.

What a "blunder"

If price comparisons aren't adjusted to cost of living, then they are entirely worthless.

40k+ for a Marvel movie, compared to four movies I've never heard of? That looks like some seriously cherry-picked data manufactured for outrage.
Avengers Endgame has over 10k with a 98% "want to see" score, and that doesn't even come out for 2 months. The last Avengers movie has 52k.

This is an entire analytics SaaS sub-genre. TechCrunch is just figuring this out? Have they never heard of IBM's Tealeaf?
