UK Govt. stupidity aside, Apple could allow iOS users to switch their backup provider from iCloud to other services or backup targets. But they won't because they want to continue …

This is nonsense - there's nothing about a Node.js re-write in the 4.3 kickoff post: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2015/04/28/wordpress-4-3-kic...

Would also be very nice if someone set up an auto-deploy such as the one Tinfoil did for VPNs: https://www.tinfoilsecurity.com/vpn/new

That's done it! Where's the HN tip jar? :)
