    This smells like shitty engineers bitching that they can't push the easy button and would actually have to work to create a feature that is desirable AND preserves privacy.  
    Yeah, just blame “shitty engineers” without a shred of evidence. Either post a critical comment based on well-reasoned opinion, evidence, or just get out of the forum!
    Do you really think you can tell others not to participate in a public forum?

    Especially when the subject is privacy rights and the protection there of?


    Absolutely not. But say something with evidence or some modicum of thought or get out! What you are saying is one of two things I abhor: attacking those who offer critical comments or just plain lazy slagging. You fit the latter. 
    Again, you don't get to boss people around over the internet.   

    Your weak attempts to kick me off this public forum are both laughable and sad.

    “ And, in 2015, Apple staffers working on the Photos app proposed a feature that would allow users to chronologically list the locations they had visited and view images taken at those areas. This feature was vetoed by a privacy engineer who explained how the feature could make it easier for authoritarian governments to see where a user has been. “

    Damn, I would actually really like this feature. 
    Photos already has this feature.   Your images are displayed in chronological order.  

    You can even go albums->places and see a map showing photos at the location you took them.  When you touch the photos at the location they are displayed chronologically.

    What happened to liquid metal? Wasn't that supposed to be very light and very strong?
    Apple can’t use it. That technology is owned by Cyberdyne Systems. 
    They absolute could use it, as they hold an exclusive perpetual licence to use it in commercial electronics. Indeed, they used it for the SIM ejector tool bundled with the iPhone 3GS. 

    Apple doesn’t use it because they’ve clearly found that other materials suit their needs better. 

    Insert gif of joke flying over someone's head here.....
