You are probably right, though I'd like to see an analysis of how common these sorts of deaths and disappearances are in a similar aged and situated population. But I can give a very good theory of a cause if there is statistical significance. It is well known that Iranian nuclear scientists were targeted for assassination for years as were Pakistani scientists. Iran and/or Pakistan have every reason to want payback and this would be to them a proportionate response. https://www.science.org/conten... https://www.middleeasteye.net/...

Note that the statement says Apple never worked with any government to add a back door, NOT that Apple never added a back door. This statement would still be true if Apple worked on its own to add a back door and then gave info to the US government on how to access it. Why not say 'Apple has never added any back door to its products' and whenever a third party is able to create one through a vulnerability error Apple works to close it promptly. Unless Apple did add a back door.

Nothing a little gaffer tape couldn't fix.

According to TFA, the collision releases a massive shockwave of gravitational waves and x-rays equal in some simulations to 14% of the mass of the black hole(s). Isn't this information from behind/beyond the event horizon? I've never quite understood how x-rays could 'escape' the event horizon if there is such a thing as an event horizon. Or am I misunderstanding TFA and black holes/x-rays. Cheers.
