If they can install malware on the device, wouldn't it be easier to use something like the accessibility features of Android to just scrape the content or maybe take Screenshots, send them home and use OCR?

Agreed. RSS is an amazing technology, but I miss a real good feedreader. I loved FeedDemon, but since its development stopped it got so sluggish when handling my RSS feeds.

Same in Munich. I think those work offline, also the driver can pick the next stop. I guess it is easier in the long run to have all routes mapped and instead of GPS you use something like doors open / doors close as a trigger to jump

Does it work without Internet? Tbh, I find it kind of creepy to have Apple, Google, Microsoft or Amazon listen to everything I say. I prefer keyboards

This sucks. The Priv is a decent android phone with an excellent keyboard and monthly security updates. So sad. On the other hand, they screwed themselves pretty good.

How are the privacy laws in India? Couldn't the students sue? to be honest, if the pressure was just from two individuals, I'd also say something like Facebook.

Fireball for me. I remember the icq chat with a friend who told me to try this cool new thing without ads!

Germany based, sadly. But I'll keep an eye on them, thanks

I'll look into that, however this means additional software on my systems. I think it really should be integrated into the normal account and work without me interfering

IT journalist here: Yes, it does. These are good pointers, the most important thing is to treat media relations and pr as a marathon not a sprint. Good relationships with companies and people there help me be better in my job, because I c

Good on you - please keep going. I think this scene of Silicon Valley really hit the nail on the head regarding a lot of the money flowing into startups: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BzAdXyPYKQo

maybe not end, but scale down to realistic usage scenarios.

Maybe that is the plan all along: Create shitty, easy to find backdoors to show how stupid the whole concept is? And when ask, just say: The MPAA/RIAA/NSA forced us - go complain to them.

Ok, so here is my idea: Most adblockers use lists or block scripts that are loaded from third party sites. If I load my ads from my own servers, using standard images or gifs, maybe have a script alter the size a few pixel each time, wouldn

It's the register. So yes, it was capitalized, of course :)

No, its the right thing to do. If you joke about something, it looses its mystizim, its dark alure. No one wants to worship some meme. Its similar with "Mein Kampf", Hitlers book. In Germany, the copyright ran out and it was sold

I've been running Piwik since it was in Beta a loooong while ago. Its stable, fast and easy to use. Its an excellent alternative to Google Analytics and you can circumvent a lot of the privacy problems when using Google-products. It al

So if I have an honest opinion about something my coworker or employee asks me, I should not tell him, so that I won't hurt his feelings? Is this kindergarten or grown-up life? Especially in creative areas it pays to let other people l

Not somewhat, but really, really relevant. Dude uploaded all his work to a service he did not control without having backups or plans to move to a self-hosted blog. Hell, he could have used wordpress.com if he didn't want the "has

Yes, I mean "Before Netflix".

Similar in Germany. Its gotten better, but most streaming services only offered the German dubbed version or hardcoded subtitles. Is it any wonder that streaming sites are all the rage?

I think one influences the other. And you need a certain age to appreciate them (for example the child holiday thing).

Same in Germany, the temporary contract is something to be used to hire people when there is too much work. It makes sense to close that "Just renew it" loophole.

Regarding Healthcare, this wikipedia entry sums it up pretty good: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Healthcare_in_Germany Regarding the worker rights: Not only do you get a decent amount of holidays (around 30 in most com

whenever I read an article like this, I am so glad for the German labor laws. They might make it harder for employers, but they make it possible to work AND have a decent live.

I love these things. They were the basis for my first article in 2004. Its horrible to read now, but I had so much fun tinkering and researching and getting my first story as a tech journalist out to the readers.

It says something about a disc you can slip in and it opens in emergencys or if you are outside. It does not really make sense to me.

Plus, almost no information about how it works or why people would not just open the bags on the inside.
