Here is Jeff Hans ted talk for his touchscreen tech. Wouldn't this be prior art? http://www.ted.com/talks/jeff_han_demos_his_breakthrough_touchscreen.html

The other replies to your post already noted that this service does not store any data on the phone. Here is text from their site: https://squareup.com/security

• Card numbers, magnetic stripe data, or security codes are not stored on Square client devices.
• Applications developed in-house are subject to strict quality testing and security review. Web development follows industry-standard secure coding guidelines, such as those recommended by OWASP.
• Card-processing applications adhere to the PCI Data Security Standard (PCI-DSS), Level 1.

Google news needs stricter regulation. Nothing should ever be free.

Its not like Adobe is creating a whole new proprietary flash player or other technology. Its just a video player. They are using (the to be flash replacement) HTML5 as a flash replacement. As the article says, other companies are already doing the same thing with their players. Adobe just made creating the same kind of dual players easier for all.

So they shouldn't move towards HTML5? You seem to not like flash and Adobe is giving an option for you to not use flash. Don't even need FlashBlock. Damned if they do damned if they don't....

Most things are confusing to our brains until you get used to them.

Personally if I was able to tape encounters with police it would help with trust. I've had more good encounters with police than bad and am very happy that they are there when you need them. But whenever dealing with police I would like to have a recording. Not just to keep people nice but to have a record of the event.

Why do you exclude flash? The sdk is free and the player is free. Adobe makes some IDEs that are for sale but they are not required.

wtf, how do you get modded +5 for that? Mitt may be looser but all that video shows is someone asking loaded question. While your at it why don't you post the video of Hillary crying, some of the race wars crap, or Mitt hearing whispers. Stop watching the 24 hour news channels!
