Confirmed: Ars Technica-employed journalist comes up with sensationalistic headline.
If you’re whoring for page-hits, then you should come up with sensationalistic headlines. Ars Technica-employed journalist, Dan Goodin knows exactly how to do that.
Confirmed: Apple-owned fingerprint software exposes Windows passwords
Bra-effin’-vo! Add Apple in the headline and wait for the page-hits to increase at an alarming rate.
The headlines is not inaccurate because AuthenTec revealed that they were acquired by Apple Inc. on July 26, 2012. The problem with the headline is that Apple had nothing to do with the vulnerable software. It is not a quality headline anyone would expect from someone who graduated from UC Berkeley with Masters of Journalism degree. It is a type of headline one would expect from TMZ or National Enquirer.
What kind of headlines this Ars Technica-employed journalist can come up with next?
“HP CEO acquired Skype for eBay”
Looks Legit: Online Bill from Sprint
This is odd. I do not have any services on Sprint then why am I getting an email from them?
There are so many thing wrong with this email.
Spending less on wireless phone bill.
Back in 2009, I paid roughly $160 every month for Unlimited Minutes, Unlimited Data and 200 Texts on AT&T. Now I paid roughly $85 every month for 450 Anytime Minutes with Rollover, 5000 Night & Weekend Minutes, Unlimited Mobile to Mobile Minutes, Unlimited Data and 1000 Texts. That’s because I have been using Google Voice. With the introductions of FaceTime and iMessage I manage to reduce the usage on my account; with the exception of calling to other mobile phones.
Most people I constantly in contact with are using their mobile phones as their primary phones. That’s when Unlimited Mobile to Mobile Minutes plan becomes really handy. I generally make outgoing calls through Google Voice, which is currently free. I also send text messages through Google Voice, unless the other person is using an iOS device. That’s when iMessage really shines. I have 1000 Texts plan because AT&T made it a requirement. Of course, I’m using FaceTime with certain people.
Most of the time I would be on Wi-Fi network, but I have used more than 2 GB of data with three days left in the billing cycle. This is one reasons why I am keeping the unlimited data plan on AT&T, and I plan to keep it that way.
I have been saving about $75 every month and that ads up to $900 annually. That’s quite a lot.
Opt out of AT&T and Verizon from selling your personal informations.
From AT&T Customer Proprietary Network Information or CPNI page:
AT&T companies that provide telecommunications and interconnected Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) service (which permits VoIP customers to both send and receive calls to/from customers with traditional telephone/telecommunications service) would like to share your customer proprietary network information within the AT&T family of companies for our own marketing purposes, including using that information to offer you additional products and services.
You can opt out of this service by going to www.att.com/ecpnioptout.
If you’re Verizon customer, you can also opt out.
It is unclear if iPad users on Verizon are affected by this. Verizon would not allow users to register iPad on My Verizon. Verizon requires user to register to My Verizon before they can review their privacy settings.
