  • Apple and Google detail COVID-19 contact tracing program, focus on privacy [u]

    Will never use this and no one can force me.

  • Senators raise privacy concerns over Apple's COVID-19 screening app [u]

    These senators have fucking nothing better to do during this time? Everything is imploding, and they decide they want to spend energy on this, a screening tool that asks for zero identifiable information and asks general questions that anyone can create using a Google form? Incredible.  This has fuck-all to do with HIPAA, these aren't patient records. 


    Seriously? Most of the government is basically useless as far as I’m concerned and I could save a crap load of tax dollars every year if we just got rid of all the BS that is the government, but if they do anything at all it should be to make sure our rights are being protected.

    We should be tracking any of us that are potentially infectious. These are not normal times, so temporary extraordinary measures should be taken.
    Nope.

  • Apple supplier Samsung to end all LCD production by end of 2020

    chasm said:
    This would seem to mean (literally) nothing from an Apple perspective. Orders for existing LCD products will still be fulfilled, and Apple has already been rumoured to be moving to mini-LED, more OLED, and other display tech (including quantum-dot) for some time. The writing has been on the wall for "vanilla" LCD for some time, and I doubt this will cause any disruption.
    Mini LED displays are LCD. 
    I think he meant micro-LED.

  • FCC ordered to take public feedback on net neutrality repeal

    Sorry it is not fast enough for you, It will be a slow death, you will hardly notice at first then one day certain websites seem sluggish while the big guns will be lighting fast. 
    Under “net neutrality” only the big guns will win though. All ISPs under “net neutrality” would have to go through a bunch of red tape if they want to expand and foster new innovations. Whom do you think will be able to cut through the red tape faster, if at all?Thats right Verizon, AT&T, etc., not your smaller ISPs. With more regulation just comes more crony capitalism. There’s a reason why Google, Facebook, etc. SUPPORT “net neutrality” and it isn’t because they want to help the little guys. 

    I hate it when politicians give laws like this these names. It draws public support, but most of the public are idiots and don’t actually read what the law will do and the ramifications they bring.
