The problem arrives when a few successful treatments in clinical trials which do not (immediately) reveal larger issues when deployed. Haste makes waste, as the adenovirus researchers can attest.
Adenovirus therapy caused the death of Jesse Gelsinger in 1999.
The resulting moratorium caused extreme damage to the the field of gene therapy, the institutions involved in it, and the careers of those practicing and studying it.
Google has removed and returned apps from the play store in the past with no explanation. We would like to think they did this for the safety of their user community, but there could be many other reasons.
Earth is more commonly placed in a greenhouse state throughout the epochs, and the Earth has been in this state for approximately 80% of the past 500 million years, which makes understanding the direct causes somewhat difficult.
The Earth is currently in an icehouse stage, as ice sheets are present on both poles and glacial periods have occurred at regular intervals over the past million years.
Permanent ice is actually a rare phenomenon in the history of the Earth, occurring only during the 20% of the time that the planet is under an icehouse effect.
Qualcomm patents and copyright entirely cover legacy CDMA used by Verizon and Sprint. Apple flat out cannot access those networks without Qualcomm parts. They certainly cannot build their own.
I don't know if Verizon is now accessible by GSM-only chipsets. Sprint certainly is not.
Samsung uses Qualcomm modems in the U.S. and their own (GSM) modems elsewhere. Apple does the same thing.
It might hurt the stock price, but Qualcomm should halt all modem shipments to Apple today.
Qualcomm appears to have made several mistakes with Apple.
When the iPhone 4 first added CDMA capability and was released to Verizon/Sprint/U.S. Cellular, Qualcomm should have negotiated the per-device percentage for their modems, the FRAND for the GSM modems from Infineon that Apple was currently using, and any IP licensing on top of this. There should have been clauses in the agreement for new patents on each side that discouraged them from going to court.
Qualcomm should never have licensed their source code as it appears they did in 2010. Apple is too big to trust with this.
I am guessing that Qualcomm's goal is to extend the per-device percentage onto modems that they did not manufacture (Intel/Infineon). It appears that this practice has ignited the most ire from Apple.
I wonder if the Intel and MediaTek substitute modems can access Verizon's (legacy) CDMA network. I'd also be curious to see how Samsung handles their Qualcomm licensing, since they (like Apple) use a mix of modems.
Systemd does a number of important things. It lets software installations drop service files and start them immediately. It lets services run as non-root users, where the inittab does not. It lets services run chroot()ed, where inittab does not. It provides a (bad) interface to inotify/crown/socket/nspawn/etc, where inittab does not. To argue for inittab is to argue for a straightjacket - that is systemd.
My introduction to UNIX was SCO on a 386 in '87, so I might outrank you. In any case, I have two mounts among thirty servers, and I don't think the automounter is worth my time. I need to worry about/home and/rpmpatchdir. I ripped out the HP-UX automounter when I started my current job, and it was more trouble than it was worth then. All of my NFS mounts are no auto, and I am essentially using pdsh to control their Mount status. Look at Linux Journal on 11/1 for more details.
I would actually use a cron @reboot entry for NFS mounts. I generally have a/root/afterboot.sh where I start Oracle database units, manipulate the firewall, then *lastly* mount NFS volumes. This method never hangs a boot, and it's more portable and less work than trying to configure an rc.local.
I suppose that I could use systemd timer units to accomplish this, but I've never felt motivated. Vixie cron runs on a lot of other init systems.
The most famous case of this was George Washington's household slave Ona Marie Judge.
Pennsylvania law allowed a slave to gain their freedom after six months of continuous residence. Learning of this nearly too late, Washington began moving his slaves in and out of the state to reset the clock.
Ona Judge eventually ran from the Washingtons when Martha decided to transfer her as a gift to her daughter. She spent her life in New Hampshire, where she died in poverty. The sister that Martha gifted in her place ironically did far better.

I am really hoping that Shibby brings out a new Tomato sometime soon, but if anybody is going to be punished, it should be the authors of the WPA2 standard.
...and this is how it knows who you associate with. In later versions of Android (and perhaps in iOS), you can deny permissions to read your contacts, but the app will likely work hard to get around that.
If you have contacts on your phone that you don't want Facebook to know about, then you must not load their app

I like FaceSlim on F-Droid. I would never, ever run their app. That thing is a monster.

ADA is quite old and is likely missing many of the features you've outlined. Some of them may be present in the popular descendant of ADA known as SPARK.
It is well-known that our software breaks far too much. Denying the problem does not solve it. ADA was designed to address this issue head-on, which is why Boeing's airplane control software is not written in C.

I am getting quite a bit of practice in wiping Google's stock from the Nexus 6, and cutting all ties to Google.
I wonder if and when I will do it to my own phone, and confine Google to the GApps Browser on F-Droid. Maybe soon.
...where I run CentOS and Firefox. I'm not trusting any sensitive personal data to Intel until I get easy tools to remove the ME.
I wish Oracle would put out a "Raspberry-Pi" class of the SPARC T2. The design is open and can be trusted.
Very funny.

It has also been recently proven that CRISPR causes hundreds/thousands off-target changes in mice.

U.C. Browser was just WebKit, and not technically interesting. Firefox Focus is a far better option.
...and I do think that we have had a relatively small impact that could be quite harmful for our own survival.
However, the earth has far more varied climate phases than we have seen in our current icehouse.

Over any period, the number of Linux kernel flaws will absolutely dwarf the number of flaws patched in the OpenBSD kernel.
There are consequences when choosing popularity over correctness.
