I believe that two of my friends were the ones who put founding bricks in this industry back in iphone 4 times. When they were studying in Hong Kong, they were using PVD chamber from university's lab to cover the inner side of the front glass in few microns of gold and made a good business out of that.
They had an Alibaba outlet where they were selling glasses and whole refurbished phones with aforesaid treatment applied. Amazingly people were willing to put up USD 2k for a finished golden iPhone, rather than buying goldified parts and having somebody installing them for them.
In took them a few months to realise that they need to pull parts from the market to prevent other people doing that, but it was too late already: mainlanders picked up the idea. In just a month after they stopped selling golden glass panels, somebody from the mainland began selling their own glass with 8 types of coatings that of course included gold, and golden iphones rapidly fell in price to around USD 400.
After they graduated in 2012, they set up a company in mainland that made first portable headphone amplifiers. I haven't heard anything from them after that other than that their second business went much butter, and that both of them bought truckloads of real estate in Shenzhen.
Google doesn't actually want your phone number for security. Google wants your phone number so that they can link the account in their database to other information that contains your phone number.
This is how Russians were hacking social media accounts and public emails of British MPs last year.
It is assumed that they procured IMSI IDs of MPs from open sources (databases of gaming companies (this why Google lets apps to read your IMSI) or advertising cookie brokers).
Then, they used Russian cell phone networks to announce a "Roaming transfer" of their phone numbers from British Telecom to them and then used an "SMS login" and password recovery from their Snapchats/Twitters/Whattsups. Once they logged into them, it is believed that they downloaded past conversations and other data through synchronisation APIs. Back then, Google only confirmed that they did sent a recovery SMS to one account, but hackers didn’t manage to answer a security question. This probably deterred them from attempting to try the same trick on Google accounts of other MPs whose numbers they pwned, or may be Googlers simply made that up to cover their asses.
Amazingly, many cell operators don't check the digital signature on roaming requests, nor require the roaming counter-parties to pass them through.

Russians gave Apple a middle finger after they got a fag CEO. Thier supplier, Monocrystall, was pressured to drop them. Now they source synthetic sapphire from within China
Google hires lamers.
Lamers dunno how to compile insecure libs with aslr, moreover running them in a root process
Moreover, wtf are they using very uncommon media decoder libs that apparently werent even automatically checked for overfows? Do wish to avoid using GPLed code so hard that they are ready to push that crap into production firmware?
>Huawei
So with 3 Nexus devices in a row being made in mainland China, Goolglers seem to be trying hard, really hard at licking communist party assholes'
>The Chromebook R13 sports a screen resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, and is powered by a MediaTek quad-core processor coupled with 4GB of RAM. It also houses a USB Type-C, USB 3.0, and HDMI ports. It offers as much as 12-hour of battery life.
These specs are surprisingly decent. Haven't expected dis from a crapware maker
There is a Proton for that. $50m a pop back 10 years ago. I'm sure its cheaper now as the rouble fell.
Or for even cheaper LEO lift there are garage made Zenits from Ukraine (original Zenit boosters were reusable), Dnieper, Rokots, Shtil, Cyclone, QA rejected Kosmoses that can still be brought to a flyable state, and tons of other stuff picked from factory scrapyards (Remember that Swiss startup that bought a functioning Almaz just like that)
At least, they need to stop letting people to give free ride codes to themselves.
In Russia, we coined a word "Uberist" for people who chain Uber promo codes or ride and hail themselves from the second phone.

LeEco are nice guys. They run two biggest DC and torrent trackers in China
Firing squad for their CEO
>green energy Bullshit detected >nanotechnology-based catalyst Even more bullshit
>scraps of Russian hardware. Shenzhou is Soyuz with a bigger service module
That's a breakthrough. It will be interesting to see if this can stack up with induced nodule growth methods

They want to throw out a Linux kernel outa android and gpl compliance matters with it. Qualcomm already has a unit that writes a HAL midware for it.
