    I'm actually curious what the Chess.com statement would be - they seem to have some bombshell that's coming soon. Also curious how Hans' will react to all of this.

    Qualcomm did the same thing on their phones back in the days (known as QFUSE). Not sure about right now.

    This is taking a longer time than expected for a company like Facebook - must be serious where a rollback isn't possible or trivial.

    Google could probably do it if they REALLY wanted to. But to handle all the small nuances and complexities is not trivial. An example - larger companies will never use Expensify be…
