I agree, it absolutely is interesting research, and I appreciate the detailed explanation that was published. Although the proximity requirement severely limits the possible impact…

I agree with the industry response here. KRACK was the same thing. The author finds a vulnerability that is absolutely valid (no denying here), easy to exploit in a lab but very ha…

IIRC, "a heck of a long time" refers to the time elapsed since the initial release of OpenBSD in July 1996. Patches for vulnerabilities are listed per release on https://www.openbs…

Oh, we can fulfill them. We'll resort to TLS inspection and force you to trust our CA on your device if you want to continue accessing our corporate network. And now we get to see …

I agree. For several years I have been looking on and off for a layman way to locate a source of a sound, but haven't found anything. A solution like this could resolve many of the…

Here's hoping it also reduces the exorbitant amount of false positives we've been seeing with Stripe's fraud prevention services, which cost us a lot in lost legitimate sales.

I had a Little Printer, and I believe the article is slightly over-romanticizing the device. It was slow, not only the printing itself but there would also be a considerable delay …

If the item you're ordering is out of stock or unavailable to ship immediately, the shipping method time starts when the item ships. For example, it will take two business days aft…

They did, but they also wasted a lot of time in January, allowing the virus to travel the world. But as you mentioned, other nations made similar mistakes, and they had the benefit…

I agree, demonizing the Chinese people is the worst thing anyone can do. They didn't want this virus either, but they taught us how we can contain it, and they paid the price with …

Absolutely, but Whatsapp it isn't distinguishing any less between Whatsapp users and non-Whatsapp users. Messages doesn't entirely cut you off from people who don't bring money to …

83% of US teens have an iPhone according to Piper Jaffray in April 2019 [1]. That number is biased, however, as 1) it's solely based on a survey done in high schools, and not every…

> Nobody was going to switch to an entirely different mode of communication just for my sake Please elaborate. No iPhone user has to switch from the "iMessage" app to the "SMS" app…

That's not how it works. These kids didn't create the stigma for the green bubble. Popular culture did, big-money TV, movie and music productions did, and teens are the most suscep…

That's subjective, but your observations are valid in many scenarios. The point I want to make is that Messages is not preventing them from including Android users because they don…

The same applies. Messages can perfectly handle group messages that include a mix of iOS and Android users. Unlike Whatsapp, Messages doesn't require that every participant has Mes…

I do notice a pattern of misunderstanding that I've also observed when talking with Android users IRL. iMessage is very different from Whatsapp. For starters, there is no dedicated…

iMessage reverts to SMS when the recipient doesn't have an iPhone. All within the same app. To what does Whatsapp revert when the recipient doesn't have Whatsapp?
