By requiring a certificate, this is defacto control of sideloading. Google can refuse to issue a certificate for whatever reason they want. The argument is that if it's your device, google should not be involved at all in the sideloading process. I really can't come up with a reason this is any different than Microsoft telling you you can't install chrome without their blessing.

Why is there no mention of how stripe wants to steal all of your banking data if you use your bank account to pay on a website. That any bank allows this is insane.

I properly written legal document would have added "in each case" to designate that free applies to everything. Apparently the EU must use interns to write its laws.

Actually, no. Requiring them to pay at the begining would mean financial aid has to go out earlier, making it even harder to detect fake students. There is no world in which making aid recipients pay upfront will work. Colleges are already plenty equipped to verify students with remote proctoring tools. If they can't even do that for the most important of all things, the $$$$, then they need to be held accountable.

There isn't a real issue to normal people. The background is that every day for the last two decades software developers and artists have complained that they're underpaid, overworked, and underappreciated by the game studios. AI is just the latest thing for them to complain about RE job security.

Yep. There is no way to trust the rest of the claims because the first one is just BS. The government has been all over kyc with banks for years.

Well that's the kicker isn't it. Someone can walk up to you on the street, vaguely threaten you to get you to unlock your phone with the pin code, and now they have access to everything. Have fun. Of course they could do that before passkeys since ever other person seems to let their iPhone remember all their passwords anyway. I'm totally for hardware keys + passwords, but using your phone as the password is a pretty poor idea from a security perspective. Just saying that though would ignore that passkeys are unphishable, which is a big improvement for most people.

Or maybe it's because patients haven't given and don't want to give consent to have their visit recorded in a permanent fashion. These systems are supposed to write visit summaries that doctors are typing by hand immediately after seeing the patient. They're not intended to provide a verbatim transcript nor be entered into a record before review by the doctor.

Contrary to the branding, Amazon employed an army of foreign contractors to manually review every item. It shouldn't be surprising to anyone this didn't catch on.

So they're going to let the fares increase to give new operators an incentive to enter...right???????

That's a fair idea, but the concern with pills is condensation because many many drugs are sensitive to moisture. There are virtually no pills that can't be refrigerated from a temperature standpoint.

I don't know how many ways this can be said. It's right on the payment page with incorrect grammar and all: "Make sure you're sending to someone you trust, and their information is correct. Money is typically available in their account in minutes. Once you've sent money, you can't cancel it."

Through the SEC's ineptitude or maliciousness (it's really hard to tell these days) they've decided that any contract of ownership is a regulated security if it's done "online". Of course this is garbage. Nft art is much closer to a written bill of sale that it is a equity position in a company or an ETF. It certainly can act like the later, but that's not the case the vast majority of the time, and the collateral damage to the industry is exactly the SEC's intent.

This is just more wasteful grandstanding by the DOJ where everyone except maybe them (or maybe not) knows they'll lose. The Adobe plans are probably the single most derided app subscriptions online, but are also some of the most clearly labeled. Literally everyone but maybe a potato knows what "annual, paid month" means right next to the dollar amount. People hate them because they're expensive and refuse to sell the plans that people want, not because it's unclear what you're receiving.

Great, so now instead of fraud being the card issuers problem, they're going to say that the passkey that I'm now forced to store on all of my devices couldn't have been used by someone else.
