Well, you know what they say about a woman's perrogative. Wait. Stop throwing things at me. Ow. Ow. Ow.

I gave up.
Look, masturbation's more efficient anyway.
Creative Suite 6 will become Adobe's XP. Solid enough that no-one ever really needs to upgrade and expose themselves to cloud evaporations.
Seriously, WTF, kiddo?
No problem. Just don't sign for it.
We can guess that the Win has been compromised even though the definitive smoking gun for it has yet to appear. However, Linux has been weakened so that there's a backdoor, then that might be big reveal.
An alternative is that the great vacuum cleaner in the sky has been like Archive.Org on steroids and has been leaking like an old boat so that favoured corporations, political entities and other levels of government have been getting access that has had measurable negative consequences. I mean, it's not like they've been using this stuff to keep copies of the Star Wars Holiday Special.
The last things I might guess is that there's an event in particular that is the big reveal. For example, we've never actually had Bin Laden say 'I did it and I'm glad I did it.' In fact, I seem to recall a news story on Sept 12 or 13th saying 'WTF - not I'.
I'm sure Vigilant Solutions will be happy to talk to you.
This is why technical writers will never run out of work.
Here are some to get her started.

Apart from that, though. If she signs into Amazon to buy something, OF COURSE they'll know it's her.
However, the moment you're doing anything else, the differences show. So, yes, at two paces away in perfect daylight, with no need for special considerations, yes, a smart phone will take decent photos. Given that even at press conferences telephotos and zooms are needed to see the podium, or you're shooting in imperfect light, or you need a polarizer, or you need to add off-camera flash, you'll need a decent camera.
A few years ago, people were saying that new manufacturers would emerge because Nikon and Canon were wedded to an old-fashioned camera format and the multimedia still/video camera would emerge as a new UI. Well, PJs are still shooting with a design perfected over generations and those needing to shoot video bolt the cameras onto harnesses that make the rigs no smaller than Betacams.
I knew going in that I'd be keeping it longer than the average user who must have the new thing every 18 months. Thus, it was cheaper in the long run than to be paying a carrier for the cost of financing.
When British Politicians want to feel good about the UK's place in the world, they talk about the special relationship. It's a bit of wordage for home consumption that
they use to say 'We're America's most important ally.'
It's nonsense. That visiting US politicians are politely hectored into saying it, much to the glee of this or that foreign minister, is proof of bugger all. The UK is treated like a large unsinkable aircraft carrier parked off of Europe. That Israel has NoForn access to the NSA treasure troves is proof of where the US's preferences lie.
Real Programs don't use shared text. Otherwise, how can they use functions for scratch space after they are finished calling them?
