It kind of is because that should definitely not be happening if you have already trusted it once. The pop up is triggered by an unfamiliar UID so there is something not working correctly. 

From the Vice report:

Odds are the monitoring that is happening is not directly on the device. Or at the very least it is part of a larger piece of management software.

Oh man, if a stranger has my phone number does that mean I am going to get spammed all day with unsolicited phone calls letting me know I won a vacation or can get medical devices through my insurance company? Because that would be really bad.  

Someone I know tried explaining it to me. It was a complete Vin Diesel vanity affair complete with Riddick converting a lesbian. 

Right, because before the death threats are hurled gamers have taken a measured approach by playing the game first rather than respond immediately to anything that makes them mildy uncomfortable with violent rhetoric.

What a nice story. I wonder if the game developers met the same reaction others have when trying to buck the norms of the gaming community: hyperbolic vitriol and death threats?

A professional gamer being a creepy sex pervert? Oh my stars!

There was a time when you could setup a proxy at home or wherever with port 3128. Gogo in flight uses Squid proxy to filter their network traffic, so you could funnel your connection over TCP 3128 with a SOCKS proxy and get free internet for the whole flight.

I was ready to be incensed by this until I read the portion about 1 parent being near the kids and the other getting away.

I don’t know if it would necessarily help with the fishy smell, but to clean my dishwasher now and then and freshen it up I run an empty load with a single packet of unsweetened Kool-Aid lemonade in the soap compartment. It’s basically powdered citric acid and does a decent job of cleaning the interior.

I made the switch too. So far visual voicemail isn’t working on my iPhone, but I haven’t gone through any deep troubleshooting yet. Even if that disappeared it’s a minor annoyance for a big drop in my monthly bill and good data speeds.

Anyone a customer that can speak to their service? Checking the plan it looks like it includes tehering capped at 5bps which is fine by me, so it seems like a no brainer. 

Any word on the touch controls sensitivity to cold weather? The big brother model to these, the XM3, are utterly worthless once the temperature drops below 35F. The touch controls go bonkers and will call up your voice assistant, start a song/podcast over, and play/pause repeatedly in the span of several seconds.

I have the Vornado and intensely dislike it. In less than a year it started making a rattling noise and no amount of cleaning it or readjusting the brushing/motor fixed it.

Had them. Herniated disc, torn muscles. Each time a doctor fixed them with medicine and appropriate physical therapy and didn’t claim their treatments were going to cure seizures or that vaccines cause autism

The New York Times pointed out that data came from people who were already in enough pain to visit a chiropractor

Based on the bug I just filed not being able to download deleted first party apps from the app store, it looks like it actually deletes them.

I believe beta 2 changed that now so a single beta profile will grab whichever OS your iPad or iPhone need

1) You can absolutely delete News and Apple Music
