... for doing the recall. More IoT companies should follow their trailblazing lead on this issue.
... It said the biggest issue was users not changing default passwords...
Given the disastrous ramifications of not changing the default passwords, IoT devices should be little more than bricks until the default password is changed to something better.
... "Verizon later conceded that they had transferred his account despite having neither requested nor being given the 4-digit PIN they had on record."...
Something similar happened to my Verizon account. Verizon does not appear to have a high level of account security.
A few years ago, I got a network request from the college-bound daughter of a client of mine. I thought, "Oh that's nice. She's starting early to build her professional network." So I clicked the acknowledgement. I then got a message stating something like, "Great! We'll notify her that you are interested in joining her network!"...
That happened to me. Once. Then I was on to LinkedIn's egregious tactics. It is when I started to become suspicious of LinkedIn and what they were using my data for. Now that Microsoft (and Windows 10 data harvesting) owns LinkedIn, there is no way I'm going to increase my involvement there. Indeed, as I mentioned earlier, I'm decreasing my involvement.
With Microsoft using Windows 10 to harvest data from my PC (emails, web browsing, etc), and Microsoft owning LinkedIn's data... well, I've already have started to drastically reduce what I have on LinkedIn.
Then the performer asks people to not record. How hard is that? Heck, it's what they do at movie theatres.
Recording at the movie theater is more obvious because the recording device needs to have line of sight to the screen. No such requirement to record audio at a concert.

Once again I'll say, if you don't like the policy, don't go to the performance.
..."If you don't want your music heard, then don't perform it."...
The performer does want the music heard, the performer does not want the music recorded. See the difference?
.
The solution to this is simple. If you are unable or unwilling to enjoy the performance under the guidelines set by the performer, then do not go to the performance.
That's what i do as well. If there is a little eraserhead in the keyboard, I disable the touchpad completely and use that.
Touchpads (touch interfaces in general) really suck. In order to pack more functionality into "touching the screen" the subtleties of The Touch have gotten far too fine in their pressure/location/movement resolution requirements.
....I get messy dependency issues "X needs Y to be newer than version B, but Z needs Y to be older than version A".
Yeah, I just ran into that when I tried to install two different packages on the Debian 8 install on my notebook. I even tried a fresh install of Debian 8, and I still had problems doing pkg installs.

I've never seen it on FreeBSD, though. Even when I'm compiling ports.

At peak times, Netflix generates over 35% of all the traffic on the US portion of the Internet. Guess what "dead" OS powers the servers that create all that traffic?

Does it require the Windows 10 data harvesting to be enabled?

Like much of what is presented on Facebook as being "the truth."

For me, my concern is more with the disaster that the Firefox UI has turned in to.That affects me whenever I use Firefox.
How fast does a page load? They all load quickly enough, once I disable advertisements.

See why hardware manufacturers might not want to do this?
Do what? I am not sure what you are referring to.

My apologies for my error. I should have asked: Isn't that the dying operating system company?
Isn't that the dying PC company?
Will it have built-in fire suppression? I know, that's the feature I'll be looking for in my next Samsung phone.

See how simple that is.
If they try to use HTTP, I 301 'em to HTTPS. And not just any HTTPS, but TLS 1.2. They can't squeak by with TLS 1.1 or 1.0, or any SSL version.

I had a couple of video calls to do, so I just punted Skype and used google+ hangouts instead. It just worked.
I don't have the time to waste in my business while Microsoft tries to figure out how to release working software.
And why has /. gotten into the business of tracking who is endorsing whom?
