Why have phone numbers not devolved into something similar to IP addresses? Then one could use an 'enhanced' DNS service to map real names (and aliases) to an actual number.

The cited article says two in five claim to have been hacked. Sounds like a reasonably credible allegation.
Why would anyone store their primary banking credit card info on a hackable electronic device? I have a low limit card through a bank that I do no other business with. Hack it and charge maybe $1K before it limits or you get caught. Not attached to an account with a balance, so nothing to drain.
Wait! Never mind. It turns out that I can buy an infinite number of Linux installs with them.
And your dog will play with you because you have a pork chop tied around your neck.
This.
The Emperor's New Clothes is quite applicable here. It's not enough to point out that he's naked as a jaybird, but that this has become "common knowledge" and one is now safe to act on it without negative consequences.
Just try to step up and say that your company isn't going to bite on the AI bait and the market will knock points off your share price.
There's an interesting book out on that topic.

Can't get anyone to bid on such terms? Well then, you let too many suppliers merge, creating an oligopoly that isn't in the best interest of the nation. Or if its collusion between the manufacturers, set a trap for them and then it's off to prison. Goodness knows you've got enough FBI agents sitting in bars, waiting for some dirt bag to walk in and hire a hit on an enemy.
Yeah. But you're going to fail that Concours d'Elegance trophy class with fake parts.
64, 65. Whatever it takes.

This is what I fear. I'm just not certain whose source will be "leaking" into whose kernel. Or why, if Linux devs (Linus) have decided up to this point _not_ to adopt a standard C construct, it is now considered to be a good idea.
Are we developing Linux using the Cut-N-Paste culture of Stack Overflow?
As a step toward application portability between Microsoft apps and Linux systems, maybe. But that seems to be more at the library level. But who out there is suggesting that we need to splice Microsoft stuff (drivers, etc.) directly into the Linux kernel?
On the other hand, it could help in porting systemd to Windows.
Imagine Wal mart and Amazon setting card precedence.
Or Costco.
