Only the copy on the phone is stored securely. The copy on your face in meatspace is not. They trick you into letting them record the information off your real face with the camera, and then they can feed that into their deepfake version of you they are using to fool others.

Nobody uses Bing (except for porn), and you're probably looking at the reason Microsoft was so heavily involved in the recent corporate shakeup at OpenAI. They need a way to stop sucking in the search space and possibly were already aware of this project.

Here we go. First is trending topics the user didn't ask to know, then topics promoted by a business, then the ratio will start to skew towards the latter more and more until it becomes an advertising feed.

Betteridge's law works!

Apple, last Fall: "You should totally pass a Right to Repair Bill."

This Spring: "No, not like that!"

Play stupid games....

Note: That also means if the tower or any portion of it fell in bad weather, you know, like the tornados that are becoming more common in the South, the station wouldn't have any coverage for injuries/damage to others.

Why is it necessary to pass a law after the Apple one comes out? Was it legal to wear an Oculus Rift before this?

Will be seeing Waymo money in his future.

YEAHHHHHHHHHH

I mean, forcing upgrades to infrastructure to support this venture would improve reliability for other customers as well, but who would pay for those upgrades? And basic supply/demand makes it hard for me to see how adding a new huge consumer of power will improve affordability to others.

Do you plan to fly to China and review the chip blueprints and supervise the manufacturing of the hardware, too?

Yes, why is Slashdot carrying over a headline that is essentially incorrect. The device was not carrying any nuclear material and was called just "a gas tank for rocket fuel" by the police spokesman as well.

So they are playing to Trump's base that want to be like him?

The word "become" is the operative verb in my post. Rooting and jailbreaking are not the same thing in common vernacular now.
Go to any pirate IPTV forum or even more common places, and "jailbreak" is the term they use to describe turning on the "allow apps from unknown sources" feature on with a Fire Stick. It's the same as me doing that on an Android phone. I'm not rooting my Android phone by flipping a switch. Jailbreaking is also the term the cable industry uses for this as well. It's just newthink vocab to try and make it sound like something you shouldn't do, because it helps maintain control of the public mindset when it comes to things like pirate video streaming.

"Jailbreaking" an iPhone is different, and we don't need an "official jailbreak" for iOS like the parent commenter (xack) said. We just need to compel them to add the exact same "install apps from unknown sources" feature as Android has.

Part of the problem with that is the very name "jailbreaking". It's become a FUD-term that companies use to dissuade people. It's to scare them into thinking they are doing something illegal. Consider "jailbreaking" a Fire Stick. What does that mean exactly? Flipping a switch in the settings to allow you to install apps from "untrusted" (by Amazon) sources. That's all. It's exactly the same as flipping the switch in the settings on an Android phone to do the same, yet no one calls it "jailbreaking my smartphone".

Jaillbreaking on an iPhone involves leveraging an actual security venerability. We don't want vulnerabilities that can be exploited. A switch to allow sideloading like Android has is what we need here. Not a "blessed exploit".
