FWIW: yes it sucks, but in this instance you are allowed to retroactively purchase cobra insurance for several months after leaving a job. This means you get the same discounted rate that your company pays for their insurance. So OP had abo

Why doesn't Apple turn on a green light when the camera is in use, just like their laptops do when using the webcam? Or even something like the GPS indicator you see when an app is using your GPS? Seems like a pretty easy fix. Could ev
