Or as I have renamed them, "Be Evil"

Shocked I tell you! Because Google has never shut down a service with little regard to users. And in fact, no other company ever has either!!! And no trendy online startup has ever gone out of business either, with the end users being the only ones who get screwed. If you depend on some proprietary or online (or both) service, you're going to end up screwed eventually. Plan accordingly.

Very loudly

Would be a great name for a rock band.

We were doing nothing for security that didn't happen accidentally before. We got caught. We now will do the absolute minimum required by a regulatory body. If we have no regulations, we're just saying this because we have to. We want money and couldn't care less about your privacy. Suckers.

I run it on my One Plus & Samsung tablet. I will not buy a device that doesn't let me root it & run Lineage. It also enables me to run adaway & block trackers and other stupid parts of the android ecosystem which I do not like. I may eventually move to Purism & LibreOS though. Privacy respecting technology is unfortunately not mainstream, but it matters to some of us.

The problem is that the data has a direct cost to humanity. And to those who say that 'privacy is dead' and 'data is everywhere - deal with it'; until we find a way to do away with prejudice in any form, data must be protected. Unfortunately, no matter who you are, no matter what your persuasions, there is another group who will hate you, charge you more, take advantage of you for something. So change human nature, then we can talk about data as sunlight.

I long for the days when technology vendors had QA departments and shipping products only had outlier bugs. Too bad consumers have decided that paying to beta test is fine. /oldmanrant

It's a fox in every hen house for the US.

Umm, no. Read your own summary.

Humans have rarely looked at long term consequences before going far down a path. I wish they would, but I don't think it's going to start now.

The sales #'s will tell. I love my 3T, and a few coworkers also like their OnePlus devices (through 5). Not a single one of us plans on buying a OnePlus again. For me, the headphone jack is a deal breaker. The notch is just ugly. I want features for a decent price point. I don't want less features from a copy cat manufacturer. Bye OnePlus. I hardly knew ya.

Got their write-ups about their congregation for a few years. Laughed a lot. Finally did a reply all telling them to double-check who they are sending to. No reply to my email sadly.

The 3T is great. I won't be buying the 6T. Idiots.

The problem with that reasoning is Equifax's security was so demonstrably poor that it could have been China or your 8 year old cousin. They should have been sued, fined, and regulated into oblivion.
