You should add a line in your response saying that 'Authy isn't vulnerable to the voicemail attack'. Good job for being dedicated to the service.

The difference is, third world countries have these 'crisis' on a daily basis and it's a part of life. That's not a real crisis anymore for them.

> Battery life on the 520 is pretty great That's not my point. You are getting better specs (higher mAh) on Moto E for the same price. That's all. Which one will last longer per charge will be out soon.

Can you point to a reliable retailer that's selling an unlocked Lumia 520 for $70 ? The MSRP on Lumia 520 > MSRP on Moto E. It's possible that some e-tailers might give you a good discount on 520 because it's more than a y

Not having gorilla glass / less RAM / smaller battery has less to do with being a year old. Nokia has always skimped on RAM for Lumia series (even for 620 & 720). Many popular games won't run on them. They have Gorilla gl

Flashlights on mobile phones are like the 'Leatherman' of the underprivileged. I've seen almost every technician / handyman put it to good use to illuminate a dark nook of your home while doing his job.

Moto E & Moto G, both are very well designed, hot selling items in developing countries. They offer so much more value for that price point than ANY of the competitors. Granted you'd find pain points but the fact is, they are provi

Hashing doesn't solve the problem completely. You are still giving away information about file count, size & hierarchy. Regarding selective sync : you'll have to organize the files logically into containers. I think even Dropb

If you are encrypting each file individually, you are still giving away the file names. Hence you use encrypted file containers. They benefit from block level deduplication. They can be large in size.

Yes, had my hopes up when I saw it first but the "compact" part is a deal-breaker. Plus I want a touchpad, not a trackpoint.

Granted that posting a pic from your hotel room, with emphasis on outside view doesn't leave a lot to be guessed but the author has done some reasonable sleuthing to be accurate, let's give him credit for that.

The editable box model & color picker are very useful. I wonder if the editor would one day catch up so that you do your development in the browser itself.

Great specs, but I prefer the Moto G model. Other than its camera, everything is superb for a pro-user who doesn't play games. Battery life is great, screen is awesome, 1GB RAM is more than sufficient. Best of all, it's the price
