carriers who must sell the same phone as an electronics retailer cannot stop you from unlocking the bootloader.

Isn’t the whole point that china wants to implement it themselves so they would know if it’s secure (i.e. has no western backdoors and has chinese backdoors)?

Doesn’t seem there is anything that they can do lol

Normal stand-by drain is less than 1% per hour, for a new device or a phone from 2015. Something is very wrong for it to drain 35% overnight.

they have a deal with authorities only to re-transmit their AM broadcast. No AM, no FM. Prevents demise of AM broadcasts.

Cheat software developers are already releasing cheats that operate at this level. If Riot wants to combat them, it has to do so at the kernel level.

and what is their endgame? “Developers are releasing cheats that emualate a mouse. Therefore Riot needs to use a camera to record your hand”?

Lots of other companies are already using similar software to prevent cheating.

If everybody is jumping off a roof, so should Riot?

“This isn’t giving us any surveillance capability we didn’t already have.” Claiming that if they wanted to steal data, their example being a secret recipe, then they could already do so in user mode.

Usually you use the car provided by the examining institution anyways

Too bad it’s not applicable to defective-by-design appliances like the PlayStation 5.

So it’s even better than before?

Hasn’t this been a standard practice for decades? An absolute nothingburger.

if only EVs remain, there won’t be any problem selling.

I thought not supporting Windows rootkits is a positive for Linux?

BTW, LoL is playable!

Are you stuck in 2015?

sorry for your loss

before making flying expensive you need to provide actual alternatives first, or else you are risking of electing populists who will reverse it quite quickly. quite a few countries in the EU still don’t have good train service.

if you have group admin policies, then you won’t see such setup in the first place.

Almost all games are supported on Linux, with the exception of games with invasive anti-cheat, but those rootkits shouldn’t be installed on Windows either.
