So... does this mean I will die from radiation or not?
Will somebody with access to WSJ please corroborate this quote in OP which is attributed to WSJ?
> Telecom-equipment makers who sell products to carriers "are required by law to build into their hardware ways for authorities to access the networks for lawful purposes," but they "are also required to build equipment in such a way that the manufacturer can't get access without the consent of the network operator," the Journal wrote.
Same thing. Abuse of monopoly.

And the solution for the whole industry is the same thing with some distributed ledger or some very light centralized authority (like MAC or UPC vendor assignments) plus vendor-specific databases.
And for Twitter that is #2019nCoV.
Using the correct name (or including it in parenthesis somewhere) is a way to help your publications stay connected to the wider discussion.

With a little more data it would be amazing. Just forward your Gmail to it and it would line up all your receipts with all your credit card purchases. Now its revenue model is Honey and giving you targeted adds for competitors to specific SKUs it knows you are buying.

Who would be dumb enough to give all their emails to this type of company? I don't know, but there are piles of people that give out their bank passwords to "validate their accounts" with Plaid. So maybe it is not too low.
So far, every not-free-open-source app I have seen which is not on the Mac App Store has caused problems:
- Spotify: does weird things to start at login and hide it from your system's start-at-login settings - Dropbox: phishes you to get your root password - Panic Transmit and Coda: exfiltrates your ~/.ssh/id_rsa file while not clearly documenting this
For 399 USD, I had hoped Bitwig could manage to get its app set up with sandboxing and into the store.
- Mac-to-Mac copy/paste (shared clipboard, continuity) - iPad sidecar
Once you enable it, it immediately begins uploading your contacts, photos and passwords to Apple. Then you need to disable those specific things. Even after you delete those things, every app on your phone can silently and without your explicit permission, start loading data into iCloud.
So claims of "encryption" are meaningless.
Instead, claims of "only X, Y and Z could access to this" are meaningful.
"Could" is a strong word because it includes unforeseen circumstances such as writs and court orders.
Yes, Apple has private APIs that it uses for its monopoly abuse benefit. That is why Apple's "Music" app can't be deleted from your computer ("'Music.app' can’t be modified or deleted because it’s required by macOS.") but Spotify can be deleted.
The solution is for Spotify to sue them on this specific issue and for other people to sue them similarly.
That means that Apple can also now perform an offline brute-force attack against your file vault password.
This makes even your offline devices less secure.
- Use more static HTML - Since your assets are versioned and static, start calculating hashes for everything you publish - When you link to something, include the URL and the integrity <a href="URL" integrity="sha256:...">...</a>
In the immediate future this will fix broken links. Things that are important will be cached and accessible via content addressing. In the long-term future this will fix other problems like linking to a page and then it being changed to something you don't endorse.
There are different costs to insure a vehicle based on whether it is "personal" use or "business" use. The IRS rate does not distinguish these. Is there any documentation on which scenario IRS is assuming this applies to?
Buying a company to get its most valuable assets is less complicated than that.

It is not necessary to "hack" Plaid.
If your company is ONLY supporting Plaid then your issue is that your smarter customers are leaving.
Plaid is a complete joke -- "give us your bank passwords and we'll validate your account". Banks are an even worse joke -- "20,000 logins today from one IP address, nope that's not a scam".
Plaid customers are the worst. Like Transferwise, you cannot setup a business account with them without giving Plaid your business banking passwords. What company treasurer would allow that?
Now that Visa is holding the bag this fixes two problems:
1. For customers, there is less risk that Visa will steal all your money than some "fintech" startup 2. For Plaid customers, they may realize Visa is buying this for the data and they may think of Visa as a competitor and not want to support them.

Because "just give us your sudo password to install software" and "just give us your bank password" to send money is a thing... the obvious dumber people in the future will have to do "just sign this power of attorney to create an account with us."

On the other hand, what Apple does with your photos that you allow to be exfiltrated through iCloud... that's your own stupid fault.
