    Google Slammed for Chrome Change That Strips Out "WWW" from Domains

    This is one of the original examples from the article. "How will you distinguish http://www.pool.ntp.org vs http://pool.ntp.org ? One takes you to the website about the project, the other goes to a random ntp server." They may be rare, but there are real world examples of this deviation...

    Apple's New iPhone X May Require Authenticated Chargers for Fast Charging

    Sorry, but this is such a non-issue. SImply DONT buy the "100w Guangzhou special". Stick with reputable brands only, which still leaves a TON of options available without resorting to no-name Chinese brands.

    Apple's New iPhone X May Require Authenticated Chargers for Fast Charging

    LOL, courage! Seriously, the Sheeple will somehow find a way to spin this as positive I am sure. We have had fast charging for YEARS and there has not been this epidemic of fires caused by faulty chargers.

    UK Detecting Drivers' Cell Phone Usage

    LOL, you read my mind. Completely useless technology in the end. Our phone are ALWAYS in use, even when pocketed with tech like EAS and other push based notifications/apps. Or what about cars with built-in Wifi? Those will also trip this since they are basically just data-only phone...

    Apple Pays Ireland First Tranche of Disputed Taxes

    They (EU) doesn't need to arrest anyone to enforce this. They can simply place a lien on some property or assets and collect via that method. Or simply block EU market access as another tactic. They have a range of options that Apple is open to being a business in EU markets.

    Walmart Selling Lots of Counterfeit Products

    If you are going to allow marketplace sellers, then you deserve ALL the liability, lawsuits, and/or fines that will inevitably come with any lack of oversight. I don't care who the vender is (Amazon, Walmart, Sears, etc...), the responsibility lies squarely with them. Failure to police it...

    iPhone X Got Sold Out Within Minutes, New Orders Won’t Ship Before End Of Year

    Ummm...just no. I got my wifes Unlocked non-carrier S8+ for $475 NEW from Best Buy when it was still a brand new device and nothing else out yet. Just watch the sales/promotions; its reasonably easy to get super deals...unless your buying Apple that is. Nice attempt at trolling though...

    Verizon and AT&T Allegedly Selling your Phone Number and Location

    So how/where do you verify the opt-out part for Verizon customers? I tried looking through several of the linked articles (here and at destinations), but didn't see a link to that part.

    KGI: TrueDepth Camera Gives Apple 2.5 Year Lead over Android Competitors

    Here here. With a passcode lock method, you CANNOT be forced to unlock your phone outside of a warrant (at least in US). With ANY biometrics based lock scenario, you already gave up that right can can be compelled to unlock it upon request and without a warrant. Plus with face unlock, they...
