    And here's the most important point: these ratings scams, are *not* rare. Beyond well-known brands and a few honest, respected small developers, they have become the norm.

    So once again, Apple took down another app I exposed but is cool with the developer running their other, even *more* profitable scam. I'm speechless. Below you see "Live Wallpaper Z", allowed to keep stealing $40k/month from unsuspecting people. How do I know?👇

    I’d rather have Google and no Murdoch than Murdoch and no Google.

    It's a great speech.

    Somewhere in the hectic pace of Jan26, I missed acknowledging 2018 was 30yrs since this: "I, Burnum Burnum, being a nobleman of ancient Australia do hereby take possession of England on behalf of the Aboriginal people."

    Omg we did it! 🤩 Thanks to the community feedback (and ya, bad press) Apple decided to remove the ContentFilterExclusionList (in 11.2 beta 2) Means socket filter firewalls (e.g. LuLu) can now comprehensively monitor/block all OS traffic!! Read more:

    In Big Sur Apple decided to exempt many of its apps from being routed thru the frameworks they now require 3rd-party firewalls to use (LuLu, Little Snitch, etc.) 🧐 Q: Could this be (ab)used by malware to also bypass such firewalls? 🤔 A: Apparently yes, and trivially so 😬😱😭

    Legends!

    I doubt there are many outside of Norway that know that the Norwegian pop group A-ha was critical in the introduction of electric car incentives in Norway. I certainly didn't. Read on...

    This! Yes!

    your designers have created a beautiful new design, but the numbers are quite small now. I don’t want to wear glasses while driving. Can we have an option for a larger font size please?

    Good article. There are so many benefits to increasing EV adoption. The lie that EV owners are somehow absconding from their tax obligations needs to be met head on with this kind of data. We all pay for roads. The fuel excise is there to protect a dying industry.

    . Tesla won't be setting up shop anytime soon in Australia that's for sure!

    This is the dumbest fucking thing I’ve seen today. What is wrong with these people?

    Treasurer has announced the Vic Gov will introduce a user charge for electric vehicles. It will begin from July 1 2021 and is expected to collect $30 million in first year.

    Superb news. Now to kill the bill completely. Who the hell would vote to extinguish koalas? It’s insane.

    The referral of the anti-koala LLS bill to a committee has just been successful. The vote was 18-19 as a result of Catherine Cusack crossing the floor and voting to refer it to a committee. Well done - we will never forget this. !!!!!

    The no consequences future is here already, it’s just unevenly distributed.

    Trololol, from a Tele article that also quotes me. That radical agenda of not having our soldiers commit war crimes?

    This whole story is baffling. I’m struggling to see any rational pathway where this decision was made and approved by members of team Trump. Please someone interview someone who can explain what actually happened!

    To clarify, President Trump’s press conference will NOT be held at Four Seasons Hotel Philadelphia. It will be held at Four Seasons Total Landscaping— no relation with the hotel.

    Who profits from Koalicide?

    So many koalas were burnt and killed in the bushfires. Unbelievably, the NSW and federal governments recently approved the destruction of important koala habitats in NSW. can you please share our petition to save the NSW koalas? ʕ•́ᴥ•̀ʔ
