The summary says she's 18. Pardon if you realized this and were trying to make a point unrelated to the article.
If police can do it, so can "the bad guys". Why aren't there better technical barriers in place to prevent this sort of thing? If this snooping is illegal, that's a great first step, but why are these devices even able to work? Are the mobile carriers working with law enforcement to enable these devices, or just indifferent to it?
When it came to light that law enforcement was abusing their power by indiscriminately snooping on internet traffic, we started to see more websites use encryption (birth of Let's Encrypt). When it came to light that law enforcement was abusing their power regarding accessing information stored on a phone, we started to see widespread use of device encryption (Android and iOS now encrypt by default). Is StringRay abuse the precursor to the next iteration of mobile security?
Sadly, such scanty scribbles signifies sufficient substance on Slashdot
They've finally done it! Java is now indisputably the best programming language available! They finally fixed all of the bugs! It's the most secure language available! Best of all, Oracle opened source the whole JVM under a copy-left license! Java 8 is indeed a game changer! These are exciting times indeed!
The interview was on CNN, which staffs a meteorologist that is a climate change denier.

Us simple folk have a shorter name for "Pokemon go characters", we call them "pokemon".
I'm not sure it gets any more "news for nerds" than this
I'm unsure how scared I should be. Could someone put this in a car analogy?
I just used it yesterday. It went through quickly, no real hangups. The hardest part was the glare on the pos made scanning the qr difficult. Based on how impressed the clerk was with it, I'd guess it was her first time seeing it used.
There is no printed receipt. The receipt is stored "indefinitely" on your Walmart account. Which can be viewed on your phone. If you've ever used their "savings catcher", it looks just like that.
I linked my cc to the app. Some were saying it linked directly to your bank account. I don't recall that being an option, but I already had cc on file from online purchases. It just had me verify that was the card I wanted to use.
This qr system has the potential to be safer than even the chip system. The safely of the physical pos system matters less because it's my phone sending my info. Presumably, the pos is only responsible for showing the qr and saying "thanks" when it's done.
Many of the recent compromises were due to pos that were compromised. Their website has had my cc saved for a while now without issue, hoping it stays that way.
I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of Intel Atom netbooks suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened.

Humans can be parted out too. Kidnap the guard, steal their kidney
A chicken with a badge would also cost less than a human security guard. Cost alone is not a great stat to compare competing solutions. How well does the robot do it's job compared to a human guard?
