PECR

They're all just a bunch of big PECR's.

Not surprising

"SMART" TV's have been phoning home for years, Samsung's used to have to be able to see samsung.com. Heck, my TAPO lightbulb won't work with Alexa if I have DOT enabled.

SMart

They're only smart if the person using them is smart. That is why i have such a bugbear about so-called smart meters being marketed as better for the consumer, they're not, they're only better for the energy suppliers and National Grid, although, they aren't exactly smart either,

Good luck to her

If all that is stated is as it is, then $5 mil seems low.

Tim Cook

Every time i see a photo of him i have to have a double take just to make sure it's him and not Tony Adams.

Member of UK cabinet

With a reputation like that, I'm surprised he wasn't appointed deputy PM.

A Truss

You could have easily have already been using a Clough(ie) as he only lasted the same amount of time at Leeds United as famously depicted in the Damned Utd. Ironically, Truss wanted to channel the spirit of Don Revie during her leadership bid, the very man Clough replaced.

Devil's in the detail

So key here is "customer's enrolled mobile device". According to the blurb;

"With this option enabled, your video content is encrypted with a unique key generated by your Ring device, and this key is only shared with the mobile devices you select. Only you have the key to decrypt the videos.

Please Note: Enabling End-to-End Encryption will disable some of the features you get with Ring devices. For example, you can't watch Live View from enrolled Ring devices on an Alexa device. Also, any Shared Users you've added will lose access to Ring devices you enrol."

So you can enrol a few devices under your own account by the sounds of things, but any "shared" users (not logged in under your account) within your household can no longer access them. Plus you lose the love view function on any Alexa devices. hmmm...

Wow Minority Report type pre-emptive strikes

"Home2Sense was incorporated in September 20129"

Impressive

No word from the FCA

On whether they will also be fining the company for breaking the law on cold calling?

sweet and sour pork balls

"The 3 per cent of respondents who suggested a day with a hangover should best be started with sweet and sour pork balls (30th) are clearly suffering from a hangover caused by something other than alcohol. Possibly crack."

Nope. It's an indication of our changing population and Student demographic.

Clothing?

No one can force me to put any on whilst i'm typing this response from home!

She's a friend of BoJo the clown so will probably get the job no questions asked or other people interviewed.

MC1192

Is that a human or just the number of a mobile unit?

If it's a human, you've got to give them some Kudos. I certainly couldn't write a ticket that quickly and at that frequency.

No mention

of battery life at all?

Xerox

would you say it was a copy cat enterprise?

Well

good luck with that.

Is the use of Zoom down to his PM in all but name, sorry special advisor Dominic Cummings?

If it is a massive tax avoidance scheme, shouldn't the IRS be getting very interested in any transactions taking place?

CarPlay

So they're going to make nearly all Apple Carplay systems redundant as well at the same time? Only very few manufacturers are including wireless CarPlay systems.

Amazon link?

Could it also have something to do with Amazon starting to live stream the "footy"?

Still

It's one way to get your search rankings up

Samsung

Weren't Samsung TV's the common link here?

Seems it might be a problem there.
