ohkay buddy. put down the booze or the pills or whatever.. gonzo journalism is separated from Newscorp's by _intent_. Are you here for the truth, or do you have the "truth" and merely need to make some facts up to support it? Think newscorp would publish something that didn't corroborate their pre-established position? Even wikileaks's publishing included the fact the the gov. wasn't all guns and evil, they merely published not editorialized, and that's a difference.
By using any number of pre-shared secrets - something you exchange in person to ensure you only friend, you know, real friends, like a passcode, nickname, url, number, etc that is not personally identifiable otherwise. This is a "duh" question. In truth, the ability for massive social networking sites to violate privacy is related to the laziness your statement implies, i.e, "Please here is all the information about me go find my friends for me, please!". Laziness indeed...
[not the AC] i gotta say, your outlook isn't really informative... it's more of a tautology, and worse, you sound as if you have solved some huge issue and the satisifaction i'm sure that brought you, without providing and behaviors, fact, or information for anyone to act on. It is pseudo-intellectual bullshit. We're all guilty of it sometimes, me included.
I highly doubt you have engineering cred because that is thats clap trap, if the log doesn't report 5,4,3,2,1 you know what happened, it was yanked. I hope you do don't forensics, or have need to care, because you will be very surprised about what is possible. Of course you can tell what caused a shutdown, duh. What do you think the shutdown codes displayed on unix is for? Note the other responder agrees with me; this stuff IS being logged and you know "for a fact", Android IS linux, and does just this sort of logging. Geez.
they need to say things like that or they'll go crazy. Those professions can be a little twisted. I mean, sometimes it's all corruptions and removal of basic freedoms and conspiracies.. and sometimes you are dealing with plain sick fucks.
what? why not? the phone can write a status when it gets to 5%. if that status is not set, guess what, you yanked the battery! This is no different or harder then journaling or noticing a filesystem is unmounted uncleanly! Do you know for a fact because you have tested every phone on the planet?
wasn't able to find that last one, although the search term came up. None of these are in use on my phone because I have not rooted and I don't know which of the others to trust! I guess I can try each and hope. But it's something that really, really should be built in. losing phones is *easy*. sincere thanks for the effort though.
I think the argument is "windows has been so corporate, left me open to so many fees for games, utilities, editors, photo applications, and antivirus, and time that I just don't feel like i've got my value out of them yet."
The pressure applied to get people to upgrade comes off as rather callous after time and money spent. You don't sink more then the car's worth into repairs, why your computer.
I think serious action (not marketing) by microsoft to recover it's image is required. Like, giving the last version of the OS free with each release... Windows 7 Home available to all when Windows 8 comes out, for a fee. The leeching public is the bulwark MS always depended on anyway. Every one uses Windows, right? WIthout something akin, their fragmentation will only get worse as more people refuse to upgrade their computers.
MS has a bad public imageand needs to act, period.
shouldn't have to pay for it. With apple it's free. Changing phones is COMMON. Loss, theft, damage, upgrades.. its insane to leave that detail out. I might say it's collusion to cause people to pay, even. I have ADW launcher, an android phone of course, and im still saying iphone is MUCH better for the unknowledgable.
rubbish. The rest of the world has NO idea how to migrate android devices without hours of work, if they even manage to do it with everything. 98% will give up and deal. That's bad design. And I own an android phone! just fact, that the iphone experience is FAR better for the unknowledgable and it's crazy to deny that for the time being.
rubbish. you'd lose your application settings. It's all nice and good that YOU'RE SO WISE (i'm a software engineer) but the rest of the world has NO idea how to migrate android devices without hours of work, if they even manage to do. That's bad design. And I own an android phone! just fact.
You're a snob and a narcissist media whore. Who gives a rat's ass what you saw, or when you want to talk about your precious soap operas? Posting logged in, cause man, that's a conceited attitude you have and i'm not afraid to point it out. Oh and, good troll! You got me
you think THAT'S innovation? So, when you went from your Evo4G to your EVO3D, how'd that transfer go? One click goodness like apple's system? Oh, right, you were too busy playing with a 600$ flashlight. Lol.
(i checked the anonymous box but people with guns and warrants stormed the building before I could hit post and told me we're living in the future, now, son!)
if there was not a permanent record of everything I said logged in, i might always post logged in. But there is, i don't want flim flam on my record, so bite us -anonymous
but that's my argument. You don't "give up your data to facebook" ever. You give up your data to your *friends* (your value, for free!) and if facebook now has it as well, well most people didn't value it anyway. You act like people give info to facebook for no reason. They have a great reason; so their friends can read it. Whether they should value the info is another story and extremely up for debate on a person-by-person basis (some people, it ain't valuable trust me) but since the user has no loss of revenue, real or imagined on their part, the service is free, gratis. It's a non-zero sum game.
OF COURSE you give up information - how will your friends know what your doing if YOU DON'T POST WHAT YOU'RE DOING? And it's not a zero sum game like money. you give them your information, you still have it. I still disagree with you, facebook is free. If they make money from something you still have (and didn't value, or you wouldnt give it away for free, would you?) then how does that cost you? It DOESN'T
Facebook has NOT incurred any costs for anyone (as a user), because it's services are all accessible on a 100% no MONEY basis! your a pedant; if i gave food away for free you'd complained you walked for it. I'm just pointing out the excruciatingly obvious
it happens when things get cached in places you don't expect. When tools you think are safe are not. How are YOU to know where data is hosted, its just all out there, maaaan.. (keep your enemies close!)

LEAVE it to apple to find a way to mark up memory in a USB stick!! twenty dollars for 4gb huh? Staples does better then that. Damn.

and that's not going to last too long.. MRI's and pictures show what you remember and don't, yada yada /just being real //and scary
no different then noticing a filesystem has been unmounted uncleanly. Think for a sec, AC.

just checked. you have to root your phone. That's bullshit and mom and dad aren't doing it. Not a vaild comparison at all. It's a blatant omission!
your statement sounds just like what the CEO's of failing consumer electronic device companies would say.
but not the data of the apps. why are you blind to my only point?
