Wow that is horrifying! http://imgur.com/3HFjpr1 and just hanging around on the page while uploading the image and posting had another 23 trackers added.

Shifu is used in several Chinese dialects to express respect for someone's skill, for example by students of martial arts as a way of addressing their master.

Worth adding is that the answers to someone's "security" questions often are easily obtained with just a small bit of social engineering.

Someone managed to find two graph curves that overlap nicely, but have little else to support their theory. How unusual. *Yawn*

That is how it has been until now, for Windows 10 insider that most certainly is not the case.

While the report offer a bit more content than the articles, unfortunately which watches that were tested is not included. And sleep depraviation does very little good to my reading skills, as AC reached the exact same conclusion.

The full report is linked in the HP news article. Tl;dr - http://go.saas.hp.com/l/28912/...

Out of curiosity, were those additional apps from Samsung and/or your provider? I suspect that there may be a big difference between being for example an AT&T customer with an AT&T branded device of brand X in the US versus the same in Europe, not to mention a stock OS device. For the record, despite being a sucker for the latest shiny piece of tech I have for some time now given up entirely on Smartphones. I value my privacy too much to bother with the to me minor added value they bring to me. And nope I have no neck beard. Yet!

Do you mean the very same iPhone as the one where many users create a "crap I don't want folder" on their home screen to hide away the Stocks and other stock apps from taking up space the home screen?

Rhetorical question begging to be asked: Which Government are you referring to, China or the United States?

Wow nice way of ignoring the second part of my post where I write that Apple were informed by the researchers 6 months ago. so at a minimum this is how long they have been aware of it but left it unpatched since then. And when Apple were informed they asked the researchers to wait 6 months before going public, which they did! Ignoring an issue doesn't make it go away.
And seriously. How many of the apps you bought do you actually need? My bet, not as many you might believe

It is not that bloody hard to switch to another platform in the case of an OS flaw, or hardware vendor in the case of something like the Samsung keyboard hack. A hassle? Yes. But certainly not a case where a user "could do fuck all" at least now iOS and Samsung users can make an informed decision whether to take the risk of sticking with their device or move elsewhere.

Which is why responsible researchers wait for a reasonable time before releasing their findings to the public, in this case they waited the 6 months requested from them by Apple.

Not as well as it used to be, and if corporations continue having the influence over lawmakers they have today things are going to get much worse before getting better. For an example look into the so called food libel lawsfood libel laws and for examples of how these laws effectively have made people cautious to the extreme in bringing forward even the most modest of criticisms, watch the documentary Food, Inc.

What the submitter missed mentioning is that this is the first known malware found in the wild that is capable of installing 3rd party applications on iOS devices that have not been jailbroken. The path of infection is that a user install trojanized software on a machine running OSX then connects an iOS device to the computer with USB.
In the last half year 467 OS X applications on a third party Mac application store have been trojanized and downloaded over 356,104 times, how many iOS devices that have been infected through these is any ones guess.
