Apparently, having bad and severely bad security problems in your networking and security products is not a factor when you want to sell them. Nice market failure.

Unlike iOS, Android is already open by design
That's not an argument they will be able to make once they block sideloading.
Except that they aren't blocking sideloading. With the planned changes you can still install apps via:
1. Other app stores. The apps will have to be signed by a registered developer account.
2. By one-click installation from a web site. The apps will have to be signed by a registered developer account.
3. By ADB. No registered developer account required.
And for the cases that require a registered developer account, that account can be anonymous and free as long as the number of installs is small.
Heaven forbid, you might have to show them your Slashdot account!
That would be fun, actually. I'd have to give them slashdot and substack. They'd have no idea what either of them are.
Well, it would be fun until they denied me entry.
Americans are reaping what Trump has sown, but as usual, he's engaging in denial.
FTFY
This is a gaslighting that he'll probably largely get away with, since most Americans -- especially his voter base -- have little contact with tourism or people from other countries.
His ongoing attempts to gaslight them over grocery prices, though, that one's going to be tougher. I'm surprised he's trying that. I mean, he's dumb, sure, and insulated from truth, but surely someone around him is smart enough and clueful enough to tell him that it would be better to sell it as a period of unfortunate but necessary pain on the way to long-lasting economic revival and stability. His base would eat that up, but even his diehard supporters are having a hard time reconciling "grocery prices are down!" with their own grocery bills, and he just keeps repeating it. He can cherry-pick specific item prices or gush about the lower-price of a (conveniently scaled-back) Thanksgiving dinner basket all he wants but people who actually buy groceries (such an old-timey word! <eyeroll/>) can see the truth during every weekly trip to the store.
For Aldi, which uses Instacart, I assumed it was because there is no 'fee' for pickup, but they have to pay someone to shop for you. I consider the difference a convenience fee.
That said, by not shopping in store, I end up getting only what is on my list and end up paying FAR LESS than I would if I was wandering around.
Indeed. Obviously they do not want you to realize you are getting shafted. Looks like the algorithms are good enough now to successfully create that impression.
They are in the process of making sure nobody but the rich gets healthcare anymore
Well, not rally. The first printers were typewriters with cloth-ribbons and these were subject to the problems serifs address. I would say from around 24 needles onwards and typewriters with film-ribbons, serifs became inferior.
No. You are too stupid to understand even basic facts. Telling you anything is a complete waste of time.
Hey, if the morons insist on giving themselves worse health, I am all for it!
That is because some (like me) have already done it, while the others cannot deal with reality.
And nobody can afford these things anymore and idiots like this one need to scramble to undo their bad ideas.
I hope these kids remember the assholes behind this when they become old enough to vote.
Hahahaha, not. You cannot get away with selling slopmakers long-term.
Well, better late than never.
