I guess this could also go under the Cisco Vulnerabilities thread:
https://www.itnews.com.au/news/cisco-automatically-deleted-vms-hosting-webex-teams-513511Cisco has revealed why its WebEx Teams cloud collaboration service went down: it deleted its own virtual machines.
How. . . ?!
Automation with a failed safety check. It happens all the time.

Latest feature release 1809 has been pulled:
I'd say the old service pack method was more reliable then this windows as a service crap.

Well, they don't have the experience at rolling releases like Red Hat, Ubuntu, and Suse do. They are twenty years behind the curve, you gotta expect they to be learning as they go.

@scottalanmiller I agree, this is where Linux shines now....I'd would love to see developers drop windows and push their products to Linux, we only need some big companys like Adobe to adopt this which would push everyone else over..

Depends on what kind of drugs you use. Heroin? You can use the wrench all you want, he won't feel any of it, and won't know the password. Meth? You better be ready to get that wrench shoved up your ass and pulled out through your nose. PCP? He will be beating you with said wrench and laptop within 0.5 seconds, hopefully you will have already made peace with the deity of your choice.

Legal questions around border agents using your face to unlock your iPhone.
Again with Scott spinning his opinion on a news article by obfuscating the original title or even the url.

Legal questions around border agents using your face to unlock your iPhone.
And to answer Scott’s statement, legal precedents on one form of biometrics, fingerprints, are that it is perfectly legal.
This is why I reboot my iPhone immediately when entering customs or an situation with police.
You are, currently, legally protected from being forced to divulge a password.

In answer to the article,and you spin, not a chance.
The average family buys new cars within a few years of paying one off, which is typically an5 year loan. Even at double, that is still every ten years.
Regulatory hurdles will be years long, and that is after the tech is finally actually out and safe.

@jaredbusch read their title, then read mine. Other than pointing out that it was BBC's opinion, there is no spin. None. Read them, where do you perceive the slightest spin whatsoever?

Remember, my "spin" was point out that their prediction was not universal but just theirs. So my "spin" and theirs are opposite. You see spin that doesn't exist that is contrary to what is actually there. You perceive that because I am a proponent of eliminating drivers, that even when I state something neutral or opposite to that, that I must be spinning it in in the way you anticipate me to do. But I simply am not doing that.

I did and no, they are not at all implying the thing.
