If a browser crashes because of a site, it's the browser's developers fault.
Actually it does produce the button2 events natively. I had to use no additional software to use it. It's my everyday mouse.
Bluetooth, comfortable mouse with a wheel, but a split 3rd button. Instead of a 3rd button integrated with the will, it's a smaller button closer to the palm.
Because the header is injected at the network level, Verizon can add it to anyone using their towers, even those who aren't Verizon customers. Notably, Verizon appears to inject the X-UIDH header even for customers of Straight Talk, a mobile network reseller (known as a MVNO) that uses Verizon's network. Customers of Straight Talk don't necessarily have a relationship with Verizon.
I was honored to know Glenn Seaborg while working at Lawrence Berkeley Labs in the 1980's. By then, Manhattan Project was long behind him, as was his Nobel prize, the Atomic Energy Commission work, and his chancellorship of the University of California. Yet he was still a kind and supportive scientist who was deeply interested in any research - whether in physics, astronomy, chemistry, or biology. He recognized the need to teach music and art alongside science and math, and would visit local high schools to encourage students.
I once met him at the Lawrence Hall of Science, walking around the old cyclotron. When I asked him about it, he said that he'd been wondering how the field magnets had been mounted (it was perhaps 40 years after the Manhattan Project). After a short chat he invited a few 12 year old kids over, and told stories about using the beast to create new elements. Amazing guy.
I wouldn't be surprised if someone at Sony were responsible for sending this email as a false-flag operation.
False-flag operation or not, that's a crime. If someone within Sony (or hired by Sony--e.g. their cybersecurity contractor) sent such an e-mail, that person is doing the equivalent of "screaming 'fire' in a crowded theater, when there is no fire". Not protected by free-speech and that person should be criminally charged with a felony.
Life is a healthy respect for mother nature laced with greed.
