I can’t wait to see what a crystal hologram reader is gonna cost. :-p
On hand at the launch (of The Institute at Ben-Gurion University), according to coverage, were officials from global firms like Microsoft and General Motors, as well as top-tier Israeli politicians, like Herzog, the president. (A spokesperson for GM told The Intercept they could not confirm the company’s attendance.)
An American auto maker showing up at the opening of a secretive cyberspying training academy in Israel is concerning.
A small blurb from The Guardian on why Andres Freund went looking in the first place.
So how was it spotted? A single Microsoft developer was annoyed that a system was running slowly. That’s it. The developer, Andres Freund, was trying to uncover why a system running a beta version of Debian, a Linux distribution, was lagging when making encrypted connections. That lag was all of half a second, for logins. That’s it: before, it took Freund 0.3s to login, and after, it took 0.8s. That annoyance was enough to cause him to break out the metaphorical spanner and pull his system apart to find the cause of the problem.
Patent trolls rank right up there with private equity firms that own massive amounts of housing. Scum of the earth right here.

There are ways to do security in AI learning, easy or not. And companies just throwing their hands in the air and screaming it can’t be done are lying through their teeth.
I disagree. Even basic inclusion of words to change (ie: the N word to Black or f*g to gay) would have helped.
Making these companies work harder to bring their product online isn’t a bad thing here.
I bought second-hand and got a wicked deal (cause they thought the audio was gone, but for me it a quick fix). :)
My set-up doesn’t include a smart tv … I specifically stayed away from buying one because of the monitoring they can do on my usage.
So mine is a good LCD > HDMI’d to my laptop > running a good VPN > links to multiple streaming sources that offer everything from live sports to new movies/TV shows.
Been running this way for over 20 yrs now and it works for me.
The Eye might tell you, if he’s in a good mood.
