Apple's new iOS15 Find My feature tracks iPhones even when they're powered off.

Presumably, users looking to not be tracked will now have to result to Faraday bags or not carry a phone at all.

2021 seems to be the year of tech infighting and self-destruction and I’m honesty not shocked.

Remember when the world’s biggest problems were running out of IPv4 address space?

@breditor Do we think this was phishing?

[Adam Smallhorn @Acsm960]

Poor effort phish. 2/10
What I liked:
- ‘final notice’ is scary

What I disliked:
- random url
- weird sentence structure
- too ambiguous
- ask for my total? Wtf?

Research more realistic scenarios and try again.

[Adam Smallhorn @Acsm960]

Shit phish. I rate 4/10.
What I liked:
- the sticker shock
- Threat of a daily charge
What I disliked:
- not personalised
- unrealistic amount
- 1K is too round a number
- No $ sign
- Registration seemed unrelated.

Please resubmit for further review.

Honestly, after reading the news of NSW’s coronavirus cases overnight, I’m convinced NSW’s most effective public health control is: rain on the weekend.

My favourite thing about being a computer scientist and observing social distancing is the ability to create literal race conditions and deadlocks in supermarkets!
