Now they should sell NFTs commemorating the, ah, "lost" money.

nice commercial

He doesn't go for modern technology.

John Oliver on Last Week Tonight did a whole show on McKinsey. The service they actually provide, as has been noted earlier in these comments, is a way for management to deflect responsibility for what they were always planning to do, anyway, which is usually budget cuts and layoffs, and/or massive boosts to executive pay packages.

Here's the show.

Every time I hear about more sanctions I'm puzzled that they didn't go scorched earth when the war first started.

I wholeheartedly endorse your post.

Sending in SWAT was specious at best, as the "evidence" was not particularly compelling. I get they were searching for a number of violent carjackers, but (as we see): The carjackers were not there, and more importantly, they were at least smart enough to know that when they saw AirPods, they should ditch them.

The qualified immunity angle is simple: Qualified immunity means there's vanishingly small chance of legal recourse for the people whose property has been damaged and lives have been turned upside down because any of a number of dumbassses in the chain of errors couldn't imagine somebody born in the last two decades would know to ditch a homing beacon.

The only reason Chauvin is in prison is because is simple: massive amounts of public unrest. It's easy for some outlets to dismiss unrest in some areas - for example, conservative outlets like to dismiss unrest in more liberal cities like Portland, for example. That leads to the problem you can't ignore: when you've got a riot in deeply conservative, police-supporting, sleepy, and almost entirely white Salt Lake City over a cop killing a black man over a thousand miles away -- that's a different matter entirely.

In nearly every case nationwide, the police can destroy your property and literally end your life with near impunity due to qualified immunity, as long as they have "probable cause." In this case, the "probable cause" was a set of AirPods (wisely?) dumped out the window by the carjackers.

Not only does the Mac manage disclose the behavior of -cacert, so does the Linux manage, and the manage on man7.org, and curl.se

Additionally, the macOS CA keystores are easily searchable, verifiable, and modifiable. If you want to go to your system, remove all of the CA Certificates and verify that -cacert doesn't verify after deleting keys, you can do that.

You can also clone the source code Apple publishes for their fork of cURL - which they do for every patch of macOS.

I dunno... part of me wonders if it's just a difference of opinion on how much it's worth trusting the system CA store - Apple seems to believe the system CA store should always be trustworthy, and the cURL maintainer doesn't have such faith. The nature of open source software means that forks are allowed, and the maintainer isn't happy about that particular choice, and is bringing attention to it.

None. Using https and TLS does little to provide anonymity. Using cURL in such a scenario is little more than a straw man that simply isn't a plausible use case when we have vetted tools for dissidents like the Tor Browser Suite, Signal, and I'm sure others I'm less familiar with.

That's pretty meta, is it not? Being that's essentially the 'crime' they charged him with, that is: He valued his property at a certain amount, the bank agreed and allowed him to leverage his ownership in those properties in order to obtain a loan.
