My experience with Android One phones from Xiaomi is that they have no bloat when they are released (probably because they have to have no bloat for them to be certified by Google) but then they keep sneaking bloat with every little update they make.

There is nothing wrong with being sexist. Reality is sexist. She is only successful because she's an attractive female. And there's nothing wrong with that. Not everybody is equal.

I know someone would come up with this argument. But Apple and the community will be looking at those apps closely. Even if they managed to slip an exploit into them, it wouldn't last long.

I don't believe this can be ever solved. I think the best thing that can be done is wait 1-2 generations; by then nobody will believe anything they see in the media or in social networks.

>Local digital-rights activists like Artem Kozlyuk are worried, saying that these apps could “secretly collect information: location, tools and services being used and so on”.

Technically impossible.

>The apps can be deleted, but only if users know to do that

Like any other app.

>and there are suspicions that they might leave behind backdoors into users’ phones after they are gone.

Technically impossible.

I can't read the rest of the article. What are the apps about?

This is like the Cambridge Analytica scandal: people allowed 3rd party apps to access their data and then they complain when, eh, they had their data.

Solution? Facebook closed the API. And now people complain that Facebook is a silo and they hold onto your data and they don't allow 3rd party apps to access it.

A key-value store has nothing to do with blockchain.

The picture is hilarious. It just needs the Benny Hill theme.

You could've written the same comment without being so incendiary ;P

>“If I may dare to ask those who initiated the amendment of the Fudan University charter, how do you expect our generation of Fudan people to face our ancestors?” said one Weibo user.

Is this the equivalent of linking a tweet?

You can type a paragraph if it is not too long, but you can't write several paragraphs.

What fast, free, information-dense, no-bullshit alternative was there to Reader?

If you were paying me to comment and you wanted me to stop commenting, yes definitely.

I could go my own way and comment for free (as I already do) and then I would be able to do whatever I wanted.

But as long as I am funded by you, yes I should do what you ask of me.
