        The clever cryptography behind Apple’s “Find My” feature

        You can track down your stolen MacBook, but no one else can—not even Apple.
        When Apple executive Craig Federighi described a new location-tracking feature for Apple devices at the company's Worldwide Developer Conference keynote on Monday, it sounded—to the sufficiently paranoid, at least—like both a physical security innovation and a potential privacy disaster.

              Never heard of Exim? It's a MTA so it's the mail server software that actually sends and receive emails from other servers.

              These are the most popular mail servers on the internet:

              • Exim 57%
              • Postfix 35%
              • Sendmail 4%

                Never even heard of that server.

                Exim is an MTA just like Postfix. Exim was and is usually tied to Dovecot and other POP3 and IMAP Servers.

                      The Catch-22 that broke the Internet

                      Google's big outage also blocked access to the tools Google needed to fix it.
                      Earlier this week, the Internet had a conniption. In broad patches around the globe, YouTube sputtered. Shopify stores shut down.

                        Report: Google argues the Huawei ban would hurt its Android monopoly

                        Export ban would create a competitor to US operating systems, argues Google.
                        The Trump administration would probably describe its Huawei export ban as a move that improves national security.

                            Huawei: 'We stand naked in front of the world'

                            Huawei has denied that it has any links to the Chinese government.
                            Huawei's cyber-security chief John Suffolk told MPs on Monday that the tech giant had never been asked by China or any other government to "do anything untoward".

                            Mr Suffolk said Huawei welcomed outsiders to analyse its products and detect engineering or coding flaws.
                            "We stand naked in front of the world, but we would prefer to do that, because it enables us to improve our products."

                              UK phone firms demand clarity over Huawei

                              The UK risks losing its position as a world leader in mobile connectivity, Britain's mobile operators are warning.

                              In a draft letter to Cabinet Secretary Mark Sedwill, seen by the BBC, operators will urge the government to clarify its position over Huawei.
                              The letter asks for an urgent meeting between industry leaders and the government to discuss their concerns.
                              Operators say they can't invest in infrastructure while uncertainty over the use of Chinese technology persists.

                                Of course they can invest, they can upgrade their wiring, the towers and poles, the conduit etc. They just can't realistically purchase any 5G-esk technology or wireless equipment as they can acquire it for cheaper from Huawei than from anyone else.

                                  Security researchers have identified yet another cryptocurrency mining malware. This time it’s installing itself on enterprise application servers, and using a clever trick to remain hidden. If that wasn’t enough, the malware has already claimed its first major victim: Oracle servers.

                                        AMD claims performance-per-dollar leadership over Nvidia, but for how long?
                                        AMD took the stage at E3 to announce its "Navi" family of GPUs.

                                            If you haven’t patched Vim or NeoVim text editors, you really, really should
                                            A recently patched vulnerability in text editors preinstalled in a variety of Linux distributions allows hackers to take control of computers when users open a malicious text file.
