I also run the MDM system - so I know we're not collecting anything. We push down mail and VPN configs to secure the environment. Of course, in reality, it's not any more data that you're probably already giving to the majority of the apps on your phone. Unfortunately the rights you grant are to the MDM application, not the MDM profile, so there's no way you can tell on the device.

It should be relatively easy to get a copy of your company's MDM profile from IT. As opposed to finding out what Slack is doing with your data.

It sure seems like all that's left on Slashdot are Chicken Littles.

"We choose to go to the moon.. in the few decades or thereabouts."

heh - I'd love to see your FDA-Compliant paperwork on your homemade open source project. You know, the complete device history and quality data that would be used in the event of an odd occurrence (which in business might trigger a recall to repair or replace those products). Do you have ANY idea how much quality crap and documentation has to be handled to release a medical device that doesn't even get ingested or implanted? Oh you don't have that? That's what you're paying for - either you bitch about the cost, or you bitch when something goes wrong 1/10000% of the time and want the CEOs heads. You can't have it both ways.

You mean like carrying a smart phone?

I can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but I do the same thing, ESPECIALLY for recruiters - they do NOT have your best interests in mind. IMHO, when I talk to a recruiter, it's only because it's a position of interest. It seems to me recruiters tend to treat the prospect like they're applying to anything that passes in front of them.

Of course, you have to be PC about it: "I just want you to know, I'd prefer not to waste anyone's time - and while this job sounds like something that's right up my alley, if the job doesn't pay 'x', I'm just not interested."

Even if it doesn't get back to the employer, the recruiter is aware.

So you created an account, were emailed the password, and that's it? THAT"S the problem? You never saved your payment information - which if you use Visa/MC you're 100% protected from fraudulent transactions. And an attacker would gain what? Knowledge of the sex toys you like?

Not even sure why I'm wasting time posting this.

Next time before you post stupidity, actually do a risk assessment. Too much 'security research' is concentrated on a single action, and people are having a REALLY hard time seeing the big picture (or the 'forest through the trees').

The reason they're not responding to you is because you're not worth their time. They have products to ship, and actual customer service to provide. They will have zero problem dropping a pain in the ass customer with minor complaints that they want to publicize for their own personal gain.

I agree. Get a Honda from the 90s. OBD2 will give you good insight into the ECU, plus there won't be engine components crammed into every nook and cranny of the engine bay. And the Keys - my god the keys. If you don't want to pay $100 just to copy your key, avoid that proprietary garbage.

I've got a '93 Del Sol. Only OBD1, but fun to drive, parts are easily found and there's a ton of info available about Civics. My 2005 Pathfinder needs a new key, and I can't bring myself to spend that kind of money for what's worth $1 to me.

Sign your outgoing emails. If it's in the remote user's Spam folder, then it's not blocked, it's filtered. And since your IP is coming from a known poor reputation provider, you already have an uphill battle.

Same thing happened in my Middle School science class. One kid got a hold of the teachers copy of the final, and a bunch of kids cheated - including twin friends of mine. The administration did the same thing - "Tell us if you cheated, and it'll be ok".

The brother admitted to it, and was held back. The sister stayed quiet and moved on to high school.

We were attacked by pirates. Fortunately, we were able to fend them off, but we lost Joe (who actually deserted).

Especially back before satellites and realtime communications Wanna pick up some 'native' chicks?

Oh we're a week late because it was REALLY STORMY at sea. See? It says so in the log book.

I was InfoSec at a Fortune 500 company that moved to Google Apps and the Security rep for the email migration. SSO and account verification was to accomplished via SAML - so we could restrict non-exempt employees and consultants, etc. Not having worked with it before, I setup SimpleSAMLphp on my Windows laptop using my personal domain on Google. It took me about 40 minutes to get my local AD credentials to auth to my domain on Google.

They paid $1mil for 4 servers to do the same thing.

" For example how wealthy Republicans con poor Republicans into voting away their power" Does that help with why I believe you're elitist? Seriously, learn to read. (Does that help too?).

ahh another "You must be a 1%er if you haven't suffered, and if not then you're obviously a sucker". Yes, both parties are at fault, but damn, liberals are some snobby elitist bastards. I'm athiest nonPCer. Yeah, if the guy is black - it's a description, not a judgement. Get over yourself already, it's almost 2015.

I resubmitted the article with the correct links. This one should be ignored.
