  • Do not click on unexpected emails from DocuSign

    Was going to sell an automobile to Carvana. They made an acceptable offer, sent a driver to come get it for the usual inspection and payment. I had a title document ready to sign; and was prepared to take their money. Guy hands me an iPad and says, "here. sign all these documents using Docusign." I refused. "I have a marketable clear title, and here's the car. I'll sign the former, if you give me the money." He says, "I can't. Company requires this." "OK, skippit. I'll sell it elsewhere." Drive dude empathized, says he gets that a lot, and he warned the company. I'm not ever using Docusign. 

    Edit: fairly, the scammer here may have been Carvana itself. Betcha their documents they wanted signed were some sort of warranty, or waiver of my rights. Nope. You were given a right of inspection, and I need not make any representation other than the title document...that you are free to inspect and verify. 
    Good job.

    More and more, we encounter businesses waving an iPad and asking us to sign multiple lengthy documents. For a trusted doctor, no problem. For an insurance agent or just about any company, the company rep has two choices: 1) Forego the deal and go away now, or 2) Let me get my glasses and have a seat while I read, and understand, every word. Then I might sign.

  • Fears over tariff price rises prompted panic buying of iPhones

    "Fears over this or that" which eventually don't pan out. Market crashing? WW III starting? Climate going to roast (or is it freeze) us? The media is selling fear and the lemmings are eating it up.

  • AppleCare One launches as a single plan to cover multiple Apple devices

    $240 a year?? No thanks. If you're the type with the dropsies or who doesn't take care of their things in general, maybe it makes sense.

    You can bet Apple has done the math and this is a nice money maker for them.

    No bias there.

  • DOJ goes after US citizen for developing anti-ICE app

    pixeltinipixeltini
    Hmm, who could have guessed interfering with law enforcement efforts would be illegal? It's no different than attempting to block a police vehicle doing its duty to protect Americans against those who would do us harm. You know… gang members, drug dealers, convicted felons, cartel thugs, human traffickers, and so on.

    And let's call out the specious idea that Ice Block is no different than a radar detector or warning drivers of a speed trap. A speed zone warning is an alert to POTENTIAL law breakers. Ice Block interferes with police efforts to apprehend individuals who have ALREADY BROKEN AT LEAST ONE LAW. Do you see the difference? Well do you?

    Pardon me for using logic and pointing out the obvious. Now go ahead and hurl the Leftist phrases you learned from CNN.
