The results, and how people use their phone number, wittingly or not, is irrelevant to a service provider failing to properly secure and maintain customer accounts. Beyond that, many of these powers created or adopted (and force upon the user) the system whereby the goddamned mobile phone is required for multifactor authentication. (Just like the convenience of using things like fingerprint/face recognition/retina scan as a flippin' password, when they are actually equivalent to a username.)
I think people are kind of dumb to trust these appliances and services, and frequently don't bother to do minimal securing of anything themselves, even when tools are provided or available. But the entire system, corporate-wise and code-wise, is based on the "(barely (or not really)) good enough" philosophy.
But at the core of this matter, the issue is: Service providers not following the protocol already in place, which is plenty good enough to stop numbers from being incorrectly ported by actors who have not managed to gain access to any credentials prior to the port.
Having 24m in cryptocurrency, yeah, i would do a bit more to secure that. It doesn't change the fact the the mobile providers are full-on fail here. The porting issue still exists for those of us who have absolutely nothing of value connected to our devices.
Hydrating. The word is hydrating. Also firming and toning. Possibly exfoliating or some other properties specific to intended use cases. But it's "hydrating". Which is sexy and sciencey.
Re: Re: REALLY? You think Mickey Mouse THE key cause?
Mickey Mouse is apparently an artistic creator now. Who knew. I don't see him getting the money, though. I don't think his, uh, ghost writer Walt Disney is, either. Wait, who is the poor suffering party due their rightful compensation?
Those would be the staffers whom the upper management ordered to lie, or about whom they just made up stuff. Although there may be some True Believers under that bus, i suppose, somehow managing to fall on their own swords from that position.
Do you applaud steelworkers and trash collectors also, among others who have more dangerous jobs, or those who more frequently have difficult interactions with the public (with no arsenal, backup, and fully sanctioned authority to use whatever amount of force they happen to feel like using at the moment ?
BLE filed a counter-statement denying the allegation and said that it filed the application to protect Lee’s IP rights and to expand the Bruce Lee brand in the UK.
That is a bit of a cart before the horse, innit? Your IP would be the registration of the mark, after it is approved. Even if you want to go with the worst and most colloquial usage of "IP", your (particularly unknown and unused) name: IP it ain't.
If you believe your only evidence of anything exists solely on devices which may use encryption, i believe you have larger issues.
Never mind that any serious bad actors (think terrorists, people in the child porn market, foreign governments pulling the same crap they do; the examples they are always touting) are early adopters of things like encryption, and will add further layers of encryption and other obfuscation methods which are not created by large corporations which might be compelled to do your work for them. What you always have left is a giant, rights-trodding, expensive machine going after low-hanging fruit which is... well, low-hanging fruit. (Or shit they totally make up or otherwise induce themselves.)
Lots of sound and fury signifying tantrums, security theatre, and probably some issue with intestinal gasses.
You realize that she uses both names, unlike Carey Grant, and media will refer to her by one, the other, or both, and mentioning them both helps to identify her. Like James Tiptree Jr.

They only managed to recover a few because of some people making illegal copies back then.
