Internet terrorists. 

Sure, it's good to keep online services on their toes, but when they publish and/or sell the data that was retrieved, that makes innocent users the victims, not just the service.

Can we trust that these hackers only gave the data to HIBP? Was this a public service executed in good faith, or is that just a guise?

The thing about A.I., for me, is that I’ve been retired for 20 years (no, I’m not 85, I retired at 54). Because of that, most of the features that A.I. is useful for, isn’t useful for me. That doesn’t mean I’m not interested in it, just that I likely won’t be using most of it.

You're already using plenty of AI today. Apple Intelligence just brings even more tools to the surface. Eventually, they will become as useful as typing on the keyboard.

I have the Aqara Video Doorbell G4, but it only operates on 2.4Ghz, so that has frequently caused setup issues. I'm guessing they've learned since then?

Grrr, when is AppleInsider going to improve their Forum software? Seems a new "are you human?" Captcha is in place and I just lost my well-composed response. This forum experience has been so rocky for years.

This sad thing is iMessage was created because as usual the other platforms messaging apps were bypassing Apple computers (the Apple, market is too small to support) and concentrating on Windows and Windows phone, Blackberry smartphones, Nokia and Android products in the early days of the smartphone wars, 

Not entirely true. The precursor to iMessage was iChat on Mac (prior to iPhone). While iChat was based on the AOL network, it provided a seamless messaging experience within the Apple ecosystem, including seamlessly initiating screen-sharing etc.

iMessage was not a response to other apps not supporting Apple platforms. Instead, many apps were inspired by Apple's effort with iChat.
