Huh? I haven't heard of the device itself storing any significant amount of data. And if it does, it would likely be somewhat difficult for the police to figure out how to get it. On the other hand, it's widely documented that Ama

Just because there's "next to nothing" doesn't mean there's actually nothing. The speech recognition sometimes has false positives on the wake word. Also there's the tiny chance that the victim yelled out Alexa

Token Binding protects against more than just endpoint compromise. It protects against users who copy and paste their cookies somewhere (possibly due to phishing, or due to just debugging why a request is failing). It protects against webse

You don't need to do a giant grep. You could put all links in a database, which contains pointers to where the links are used. Then if you want to delete a link, you can delete all those places. This seems equal or less effort than mak

You can use GPL code in your company's servers. You cannot use GPL code in client binaries that you sell. You cannot use AGPL code in either.

The developer put them in because the developer needs money to live. I don't think the economic reality of needing money to live is a slap in the face. One alternative would be to only have the pro version, not the free version. But th

If facebook offered a single $1m bug bounty, it would have likely gone to some other vulnerability besides this. I would guess facebook gets a fair number of bug bounty reports of equal or greater severity than this one. Also in the past on

There are still benefits of 2fa even if codes are stored in your password manager. It protects against most keyloggers. It probably makes phishing a little less likely (because most websites cache 2fa, so you'll be a little more suspic

2FA is usually to protect you against your password being stolen. If that's the only threat model, then it's fine to allow 2FA to be disabled without a new 2FA code, as long as it's from a device that has entered a 2FA code a

It depends on what "it" refers to. If "it" refers to no one except Durachinsky knowing how it spread, then yes, "it" was solved by the FBI a long time ago. If "it" refers to no one outside the FBI and

Didn't Microsoft do something similar by stopping support for Windows XP, but providing support longer for people who pay special support contracts? Of course Microsoft also released some free security updates beyond the date too.

If you have 1GB of data, and want to change a small portion of it, that would require you to read the whole thing, then modify it, then write the whole thing back to disk. A database only requires a small amount of reading and writing.
