Apparently to have an opinion about privacy and social networks, you need to be some sort of Amish-like person who shuns said social networks. Probably you're relegated to passing out leaflets you wrote by hand on birch bark or something.
Schneier is really more of a 'cryptography journalist' than a Crypto Researcher. He wrote an important book, when nobody else would write the book. I bought it at the time. Since then he's been mostly a pundit and continues to be a journalist and writer.
If it says 'hemi' on the truck, it probably has one of those sheepfucker logos on it too. (what do farmers keep a Ram on the farm for? Only to fuck the sheep.)
What's surprising is that Ford is trying to figure out how a very expensive car was manufactured.
I'm sure they would rather tear down a Tesla Model 3, but the prohibitive costs of the time machine to do so prevent this.
Ford is looking to learn about any new methods used, as you said, and presumably Tesla will be incorporating as many of these methods as they can in their newer and lower cost product lines.
Would it really be sensible to put more power into the hands of the likes of Osbourne, Cameron,...?
As opposed to the power going to arbitrarily appointed bureaucrats? Yes, definitely. Part of the point of a democratic government is allowing the people to make somewhat foolish choices in leadership, and then throw them out at the next election.
One of the nice things about an Android phone is you can stay completely divorced from Google if you choose. You can install the Amazon App Store instead and never, ever, log onto Google, and still have a rich selection of Apps to install.
Of course, then you're hooking your wagon to Amazon instead, which isn't really a lot different.
I had to replace the whole launcher on my Moto E android phone to get rid of the 'Google Search Bar' hogging a huge amount of screen real estate.
Obviously, it's true that an Android phone is the only kind of the three where you can replace the whole launcher that way, but it was frustrating trying to figure out other ways to turn off the screen real estate hog and also the privacy compromising 'Okay Google' 24/7 monitoring of my microphone for voice recognition searches.
If you're on Virgin Mobile, pitch the LG Tribute and upgrade to a Moto E. They're $30 at WalMart and they run Android 5.1. I am not sure the price for them is as low direct from Virgin Mobile, but that's the going price right now at Wallys. Mine got a major update earlier this week.
Why do Apple zealots always assume it's an either/or proposition?
If you choose to avoid Google, you can install the Amazon app store on an android device, or even sideload your own or whatever apps you like. It makes me like my Android phone and tablets a lot more than the iPod Touches that I've abandoned.
But what I said is still true. Apple could go away entirely without really having that great an effect on humanity. They produce boutique-class hardware, and nothing that isn't made somewhere else, almost without exception at a lower cost to the user. Google is somewhat the same but would have a somewhat greater effect on current human culture in general if it disappeared.
So much of what I've tried to record electronically has been lost, because of storage format changes, and the fact that it's just not really there permanently. Paper isn't permanent but it lasts a lifetime and that's long enough.
At one point I coded a 'word processor' that had features including a timestamp at the top of the entry in each instance that I ran it, and No Backspace. It was a good idea, but I'm not sure what ever happened to it. (irony)
I go out of my way, particularly with games, to find Android apps that cost real money. I am not talking about large amounts, but I am always willing to pay $3-8 for a game that has real playability, a team of developers producing updates, over a 'free' game with microtransactions or annoying ad popups funding it.
There isn't really even a way that I can find to set the App Store to only show non-free games when you search.
Zuck should just be honest about it, and acknowledge the only way he is going to 'do big business in China.' He should become a member of the Communist Party establishment.
He probably can't become a ranking member of the Communist Party of China, but he could become a cadre member of the official US fraternal party. Here is their website: Freedom Road Socialist Organization.
Note that this is not just yet another fringe leftist group. This is the front group for the American Party that has party-to-party relations with the CPC.
There should be a litter tray outdoors, too. To accommodate the cat that insists it's a dog and will only shit outdoors, but also insists on clean clay-based (or clumping, on special request) litter to shit in.
Part of the hardware tester could be built right into the devices the cable is used with. Line drop is fairly trivial to determine by comparing voltages at either end of a cable. So the cables that are going to start fires will have a high line drop, the devices interconnected will determine this, and refuse to use the cable.
That's too complicated, though, and it doesn't encourage proprietary barriers. Everybody knows vendors make all their party money on cables and accessories.
Yes, I just want one cable type. Preferably it will be made with stranded 10 gauge copper wire, so that it can not only carry data, but also immense amounts of power. And the universal plug might be a 1 x 3 inch rectangular nightmare, but it will do anything we want.
Probably the controllers embedded in the cable will have eeprom elements that are vulnerable to cosmic rays, and also subject to the medium-term 'eprom alzheimer' issue that older eproms have.
So your cables will die in a decade or so.
Wonderful. Not that it matters, of course, because who would be dumb enough not to pitch out their tech gear every two or three years, right?
The hardware testing functionality could be added into the actual devices that use the cable. So you plug in sketchy cable X and your device measures performance and rejects using it.
Instead, this is sounding more like a whitelist deal.

Cryptographers are mathematicians.

Fiat is last by a wide margin.
How can you say such cruel things about Chrysler products?
Just today I saw a Dodge Discharge on the road and it looked okay.
There was a Dodge Wiper running along behind it cleaning up, of course.

And an even shorter series if it had been based in North Korea or Saudi Arabia.
What was your point?

My Moto E, which currently sells for $29 at WalMart (Virgin Mobile) got a major OS update this past week.

Defending Google is like defending the phone company. It's mostly a meaningless gesture.
Defending Apple, on the other hand, is like defending the coffee shop down on the corner that you think is cool.

That brings to mind to me a good Ask Slashdot topic.
Wether or not you support Trump or deplore him:
What should we do to prevent Facebook in 2017?
Actually, the proper term is 'atomized feces.' Not that it's reduced to atoms, but the fecal matter drifts around in the air.
There should be a litter tray outdoors, too. To accommodate the cat that insists it's a dog and will only shit outdoors, but also insists on clean clay-based (or clumping, on special request) litter to shit in.

Just buy them?
Definitely not. You'll have to wait in line in front of the Apple Store like the rest of us.
That isn't what they're saving.
They are saving their brands, from commodification.
