It is likely that the reader will be implemented into a phone / tablet app so will be pretty ubiquitous eventually. FWIW it will never technically be legal to rely on visually looking at someones phone to verify age / id bc it wou

Places that support Apple's digital ID / Wallet state ID do so by utilizing a an identity reader that the user taps their phone against after selecting which info they want to convey. It is not meant for the owner to physically sh

Odd use of Twilio for just a SIP Trunk provider. They also offer programmable voice SIP, a product that is a distinct offering from the Elastic SIP trunking used here. With PV SIP you can directly register the Grandstream HT801 ATA to a pr

What is really egregious is that apple still touts the T2 security benefits on their site and completely ignores the fact that it can be compromised. This in fact does make it harder to take Apple's hardware security claims at face val

Ahh sorry I forgot I'm using the Twilio ekata_reverse_phone addon that you can get in twilio marketplace so I have carrier info in the lookup response. I guess then whether it is 100% on Twilio being the carrier is a little less likely

Twilio's own lookup API will tell you if they are the carrier with I assume pretty good accuracy. It works on the number I own with Twilio. Some of the political texts I get show twilio as carrier. Calls tend to be Onvoy which is now I

It is not really being sprung on them with how long it has existed. Not at all like continuing recording on a webcam where you might say things never intended for the party receiving it. Are ppl who don't even know DKIM exists but know

Yes. I have seen first hand where it was used to help accelerate out of court agreement without needing a lawsuit. Basically a 3rd party had one of their outlook user accounts compromised by a bad actor who used it to tell another company n

Just don't connect it to the internet. Also great solution for cheap subsidized TVs where they are banking on your connecting to your network so only charge $100. Plug in an apple TV and you are set.

DCS is so cool. I feel like I need to quit my job / be single again in order to learn it though. I got the rift in order to play it only to realize that learning DCS from the ground up requires a lot of keyboard input / referenci

It is beyond comprehension that they think pin reminders being mandatory is ok. I have been a huge fan of signal from the beginning and this is single handily a deal breaker and has me looking for alternatives. How did they not learn from t

Great write up. I agree I do not trust them very much and would not use them on a network that has internet access. They are a great cheap option when using their custom RTSP firmware with synology surveillance stations. I throw them on the
