"Proofpoint and Cloudmark's claims were an overreach"
Um, excuse me, but "an overreach" does not mean that you were without guilt.
So don't try to spin it too far.

I have to say that Brexit might not be the primary issue.
Luxembourg has several McDonalds, spread out over a rather large radius. I know of two that I can visit without too much hassle.
I will freely admit to being a McDonalds fan, although in my later years I also have to admit that I frequent it much less often. I still prefer it to Quick.
Nonetheless, I remember a slew of instances in which every time I went for a burger, the milkshake machine had no chocolate. They'd offer vanilla or strawberry, but I want chocolate. So I had to go without.
Frustrating.
And I believe that that is going to be an integral part of the future work environment.
Less people commuting and polluting, more chat and online presence, less imposing office buildings that don't cost an arm and a leg to maintain.
Yes, it's certainly a willy-waving advantage to receive customers in a 40-story high rise chock full of employees, but you're paying 40 stories when you could do with 5. And you can still have that high-tech conference room with the plush leather chairs and the insultingly large widescreen TV.
The bottom line always wins.
And employees will not always have to pay the high city prices, instead fanning out into the far suburbs with a nicer environment and a bigger house for the same price.
You make an interesting point. It's true that videoconferencing is shit, but for those who have a home office in a nice setting, it's a price worth paying to avoid traffic jams and spending 1+ hour on the road every day.
Personally, I basically work alone. As a freelance, my customers are now sending me mails asking for a given functionality. I respond with the date at which I can connect and work on it. When connected, I signal my presence to the person who called on me, we chat for a few minutes, and then I get to work. If I need additional information, I know who to contact. I find it quite efficient.
Of course, I have the privilege of a fiber line, a home office with largely enough desk space, and a view on my front lawn. For someone in a small apartment on a DSL line on the 4th floor, working on the dining room table, things may be viewed very differently.
Definitely agree, but 3 years is not enough.
I would push for 10 years. That should definitely cover the possible lifetime of the shit quality that IoT is made with.
It would also push IoT makers to pay a hell of a lot more attention to the shit they shovel onto the market. The more secure they make 'em, the less updating they need to pay for, and the consumer benefits.
Yup. Those delivery bots are going to get to feel the pain in a gentle manner before being thrown into the arena that is the streets, with their criminals and short-tempered people who need to take it out on something that won't respond.
Honestly, a parcel-carrying robot is just a "Rob Me !" sign on wheels.
Okay, it's a possibility, but I wonder why the relatives are saying that. What proof do they have ? Why do they suspect that data was altered ?
In any case, the company's explanation seems plausible. A collision is very likely a bad thing for the batteries of an EV, so taking them out ASAP is probably the right thing to do.
In any case, I'm looking forward to hearing about this investigation.
And that's where it falls flat on its face.
Low code is a misnomer, a lie. Joe Public is going to believe that it will allow him to easily make the program he needs, but the provider is going to have 1000 pages of EULA to ensure that any cock-up is Joe Public's fault.
Just like a Tesla, actually. Except that, with low code, at least you won't kill yourself letting it drive itself.
That actually sounds like an interesting idea - using blanks, of course.
The only issue I see is that, in the US, someone pulling out a gun in the middle of the street is likely to cause a flurry of calls to 911 or worse, someone else pulling out a loaded gun and challenging the tester.
That could end badly.
But the idea is interesting.
They definitely do, as Microsoft has found out to its detriment.
It's funny how objects made for space exploration regularly exceed life expectancy (as long as they survive the landing process), whereas objects made for Earth consumption regularly fail to live their life expectancy without issues.
Just sayin'
Interesting. I'd've thought that death meant the erasure of said data, but they're not going that way.
The only way the deceased' family can be granted access is if the deceased created a profile under his legal name and address. That means no anonymous logons.
Well, China's government is not big on anonymity . . .
No it is not.
You are quite capable of making a judgement on the treatment of the Uighur people. It's just that, if you do, you'll likely be locked up with them.
"we do ensure our cameras are designed to protect communities and property "
Oh really ? How ?
Do you refuse to film people who are abused by the State ?
But Samsung doesn't make CPUs.
I'm looking at upgrading my desktop PC, and the choices are still AMD or Intel.
Intel has been very disappointing in the past few years. Seems that I'm going to go Epyc/Ryzen rather than Core, but I'm still not decided.
Oh, and it's for a gaming PC, so max performance is definitely a criteria.
I fully expect :
- that this will take a lot longer than Musk says to hit the market (if it ever does)
- that the bot will not be able to do anything more useful than carry something or stand guard
- that it will have to be plugged in all night, else it will run out of power
- that you'd better not put it in a crystal shop
We don't have the technology for a fully-autonomous, humanoid robot. Hell, we can hardly make a dog-like robot that doesn't scream its presence to everyone within 100 meters.
This is a pipe dream. Not going to happen.
No. Just no.
You are not a nanny, you are a company with a product. If the user buys the 64-bit version, it's his choice, not yours.
Your stupid attitude and excuses might be valid for home users, but we are talking migration here. That means business users.
It's not up to you to decide what a business actually needs. And because you're selling the same product to anyone who buys it, that means that business users can buy home versions. Sure, they shouldn't, but you're not really blocking them from doing so.
So stop deciding for your users. That despicable attitude is why Windows' behavior changes over time : you're trying to "optimize" the OS during usage, and it doesn't work. All it actually does it make the computer slower for no good reason.
My pet peeve right now is the 75 seconds it takes to open a network share and get the file contents on screen. Right at the start, it states clearly that are NNN files in the folder, but the actual file names trickle in a dozen at a time. I have an old Win7 PC and, when I open that same folder, the results are instantly displayed on my gigabit network - like they should be.
Microsoft : what the fuck are you doing ? Whatever it is, stop it !
Um, yeah. Just like everything space-worthy has been from the beginning.
Does Borkzilla really believe it will have Windows 1 0 operating a million miles away from Earth ? Not happening.
Even a Moon base will not be able to use an OS that needs to phone home every day, or in order to install a new machine.
Linux is the future. Period.
It's called security.
Security is not there to be user-friendly, it's there to protect you.
Yes, many, many websites do not render properly without JS enabled. The question you need to ask yourself is : do I wish to enable JS on this website ? With NoScript, you have the choice before a catastrophe happens.
Obviously, the websites you visit regularly will make you enable JS for them.
It's the websites you go check out that you can control. If you click on a link and nothing shows up, you need to ask yourself : do I really need to see content on this page if JS needs to be enabled ? Is there no other way I can get that information with putting my system to risk ? If no, then you can enable temporarily, check the site and forget it when you're done.
Let's be clear : JavaScript is the root cause for malware infections in 99.9% of all cases.
If you don't protect yourself, well, you can't complain when things go wrong.
No.
An actual white hat would never have taken any money (or maybe just a few cents, to prove the possibility). He would have contacted the company and told them how it would be possible to take some.
This asshole took the money, got caught (well, detected and blocked), and only then pretended it was all in good faith.
Calling that scum a white hat is an egregious insult to actual, honest white hats everywhere.
