AirBnB are a scummy company.

Waiting for blood glucose monitoring. Doesn't have to be spot on accurate, but if it can show an approximation and trends up/down that is still worth having.

This sounds like the premise for an apocalyptic B movie.

Amazon want customers at any cost. There are a significant number of customers who will only subscribe through their Apple devices - after all, it is just a fingerprint or face-id away. So simple.

They compromised the servers to install malware on all the phones. All of them.

Yes - try replacing batteries in Bose QC 35 noise cancelling headphones. When the rechargeable battery is depleted you are supposed to throw £300 headphones away.

Encrochat was not hacked. The phone it was running on was and monitoring malware installed. It had a custom android implementation and some hardware mods on the phone. Same could be done for Signal on an off the shelf unmodified phone.

Reminds me of Stuxnet.

People keep asking me why I use Signal for my messaging. What do you have to hide they say? Nothing at all - just want to protect my privacy. This is vastly different from anonymity. If I was a person of interest to a government agency - my privacy would be out of the window regardless. There is always a way. I prefer to be out of the dragnet of hoovering my personal messages though.

Why do people persist on using Android? They like shiny things?

And commissioner Outlaw.

Also - a fair number of police are obese. Are these no fitness standards in the police? No wonder they are so ready to shoot -= hey'd never catch anyone on foot!

Google employees watn to delete Facebook? LOL! Delete Google! I've been weaning myself off it for a while now. Duck Duck Go for me - and use Google sparingly when necessary (no logins, Ghostery, delete cookies). Ok, it won't make me invisible to them - but seriously - fuck Google.

When are Google going to wake up and take security of their mobile OS seriously?

Their security model is broken - completely. They just need to start over.

Just in time for a new virus - Zika

Not Amazon, but Apple

Physical subscriber addresses change all the time. It isn't the ISP's job to keep track of anyones subscription services. What if a subscriber wants to watch iPlayer while out on a 3G or 4G network from his mobile device, or while away from home. They have paid - so why shouldn't they be able to? What if you connect to your friends WIFI and use iPlayer, but he doesn't have a license? Trying to swat VPN's is like a game of wack-o-mole. And this doesn't even consider the privacy implications. The plan is unworkable. It would be simpler to just offer a login/password combination for each subscriber (if they want it). Even that will not thwart those who don't want to pay - there will be a Kodi plugin to stream content in no time you can be sure - in fact most of the good stuff is already available to stream.
