With Passkeys, they have access to your stuff without any oversight by courts and discovery. There are ZERO 4 and 5th Amendment rights to stuff protected by passkeys. They can compel you to unlock your phone, and put your finger on the print reader, and facial scan you .... all without your permission or CONSENT. As much stuff behind that initial Passkey on your phone (ApplePay/GoogleWallet, Banks, everything).

Legally it is untenable how much access they have with Passkeys.

Passcodes cannot be compelled (XKCD hammer notwithstanding). 4th and 5th Amendments apply.

Geez there seems to be a lot of rage about the FCC potentially enforcing a law LONG on the books for broadcast TV to give equal time to political candidates on both sides of the fence, especially during an election year....

If he wants the Dem.....let him also schedule the Rep. candidate, maybe both on the same show...eh?

If passkeys are movable, then they can be duplicated and reused by nefarious actors as easy as this seems to indicate here.

I have not, and do not, and never will trust passkeys as primary security for anything.

Passkeys can be compelled legally, with and sometimes without a warrant. Passwords cannot be compelled at all. SCOTUS has already set the rules.

She sounds much more like Elizabeth Holmes than anyone else.

âoeWe need to have European politicians who are ambitious,â she said. âoeEntrepreneurs cannot do this alone. We need to be backed by the politicians and by the European Space Agency. But we have to start by achieving the crazy targets that weâ(TM)ve set up for ourselves. That will give trust to others to believe in what weâ(TM)re doing.â

eg
"I don't have a plan, but I have ambition, and with piles of your money I can work toward what even I recognize is basically unachievable. If YOU believe in me, then others will also believe in me and I'll be rich, I mean, we'll be successful!"

Because real punishment is only for brown people. Corporations are the whitest white people.

ROTFLMAO....

OH man, you got me with that one. If you really believe this type of shit, you are REALLY gone over the deep end my friend.

I guess all those non-white business owners that have incorporated are all secret undercover white nationalists.....hahaha.

Man, what a vivid and exciting imagination you have there...

I wish someone would make a DSLR that was compact and as easy to use as a phone. I'd be interested in that. Fixed lens would be okay, I'm not going to carry a second one anyway. Even just a USB dongle that used the phone for all the processing and for the view screen.

DSLRs are old tech...go for a modern mirrorless camera.

Go take a look at the Fuji compact mirroless cameras they even have a few fixed lens offereings that might suit your use case...give them a look.

I'll likely be getting the iPhone 18 Pro Max....in either 1 or 2 TB configuration.

I"m currently on the iPhone 12 Pro Max and the better life is starting to get a bit weak and the electronics are starting to show age a bit....I want to be able to shoot RAW and such on it for video...so, it's about time for me.

As you can tell, these phones last me a LONG time, so I drop some cash....but over time It seems worth it to me. An extra $100 or so? No big deal.

Explain why, when they got rid of the oversight of Southern states and their voting, the states literally moved the next day to reduce the ability of minorities to vote, then

Err...no one or no groups have been prevented from or reduced in ability to vote to date.

Please cite rules and laws hindering anyone's ability to cast a vote? (Aside from those that are NOT citizens, which is against the laws and have been for ages).

How often do we see a police dept ousted because a bunch of their officers had a racist group chat going? Is that not systemic?

Actually it is quite rare to hear about this...therefore I'd posit that this illustrates that it is NOT systemic or pervasive in today's society.

You're never going to root out racism totally....you still see it coming from all races in virtually all societies....but it is not systemic and is not an assumed everyday occurrence, especially not in the US.
