Think lower level. They own your device keyboard, so they can technically read whatever you type. Whether they send that to the mother ship, I don’t know, but it’s a risk. That’s one example, but same holds true for anything low level, like mic, camera, etc.
I’ve been a “Pro” user for as long as they’d had that distinction vs. lower end and the “it’s a small tablet” size.
That’s pretty awesome
That’s a great TL:DW;
Now I want an iPhone that can charge in 20 minutes. :)
I don’t drink sugarized soda, but I lump Fresca into the soda category.
Apple and Google should just prevent their app stores from functioning in Texas. This crap is getting absurd. Cause a few riots from citizens when all their apps stop working, or it’ll only get worse.
The fact that these photos and PII (personally identifiable information) were not destroyed after the verification process was certified is absolutely atrocious OpSec. I don’t even care which of the two companies is ultimately responsible, because they are both responsible.
I work in IT, and treat PII like it’s dangerously radioactive, because in the digital world, it really is.
You CAN use it to interact with people without them knowing your number. The only current requirement is specific to registration.
The CEO is saying they are willing to, that should be taken seriously.
That makes the assumption you want to use your phone number at all. And I’m sure the overhead of encryption would break SMS due to the limits on character counts.
How would removing a recurring charge on the processor side result in a chargeback? A chargeback is when you call your processor/card company and tell them to reverse a charge, which results in the charging company also having to pay a fee on top of losing that revenue.
If they can’t charge you in the first place, there is nothing to create a chargeback.
That means nothing when the servers stop taking EU traffic. I get your point, but the real solution here is putting a bullet (double tap) in Chat Control, once and for all.
Why not just make it a website? We’re not doing censoring yet, right?
“Proof of work”. The AI crawlers don’t run Javascript (yet, I don’t think), so it’s basically a firewall to them.
This section is almost worthless. It’s wholly reliant on the app developer self-reporting accurately, and honestly. We know how effective self-regulation is…
Just assume ALL apps are data harvesting, and take measures to block or sabotage that.
He could afford to fill all his companies with H1B’s, and pay the fees personally, and not even notice the cost. Also, wasn’t he in the country by over-staying a student visa?
So they go and blame ad blockers for the decrease at the same time they cause said “decline”? Classic.
Bold of you to assume they care, or you can actually contact them in a way they’d get something fixed. When I report spam/scam job postings, they just send a canned response saying the listings are “within guidelines”.
Heh, there goes Librewolf’s only sane updating mechanism. IIRC, the devs of that are vehemently against paying Apple the money to sign the code, and they also fail to provide their own updater. It was one of the main drivers behind my switch to Waterfox.
