While I wholeheartedly agree I mean to focus on the perception of a problem and not the presence of any actual problem. Regardless of where the logo is acquired from what is more important is where it is shown and what it is shown next t

One has to wonder if what Apple actually objects to is the display of logos (from the favicons) in the list of links. They’re an incredibly brand conscious company and almost certain have people scouting for things that could get them sued

A better point of view might be this: Microsoft is a huge company, not all the people that work there are (what we might consider) ethical engineers, and some of the adherents to the sleazy business practices of their past are still around.

For this specific case I'd argue that a switch which severs the power from both the camera and the mic simultaneously is the right solution. A physical sheath could also cover the camera for peace of mind. As others have pointed out th

This is a testament to how helpless the average person is when it comes to using, much less understanding, modern computer technology. It is the equivalent of "duct tape and WD-40" to repair a broken down vehicle. As a software de

The silver lining here is that as these breaches become more and more common businesses and financial institutions will be forced to get more serious about security. Chip and pin can't come to the U.S. fast enough.
