This keeps coming up in most countries every few years. Everyone seems to forget in nearly every country telecoms are licensed industries and providing legal intercept is a legal obligation of those licenses.
While they have the power to backdoor telecom networks for surveillance, what they actually want is a way of doing this without legal oversight or recourse to traditional legal gatekeeping like warrants.
So we should not shrug this off just because "they already can do it".
I just want everyone to be aware of this. Every call or chat conversation that is intercepted should have an audible/text message saying "beep. beep. Sergeant Tom smith has joined this conversation as allowed by wiretapping regulations for your safety and security".
Followed by "This conversation is now being recorded by Sergeant Tom Smith".
Based on the responses here can tell this is the crowd who like to recite CS101 algorithms on a whiteboard in interviews.
This approach is overall fairer to students by looking at the whole school year not one three hour exam based. UK exam setup has not really changed in 30 years plus and just because you did it is not a good reason to rethink how this works.
One of the things missed here also is a lot of exam boards historically let the teacher decide if the student is “not great” to sit the lower tier exam and cap there grade to a C no matter if you got 60 or 100% on the exam.
Well the data is always only in the user's browser (or clipboard). There is no server side component of this its all client side js and html served as a static site.
But I did ask my wife about HIPAA and she said it wouldn't be considered protected data unless you name your session or task with a patient's PII
We are looking for new team members to come help us build CRM software for hotels. Our application a rails monolith so ruby preferred but not essential.
Our office is based in one of the world's best mountain resorts Whistler BC and is a short walk from the gondola so our team regularly ski's, snowboards and mountain bikes year round.
We’re looking for a senior full-stack Rails dev to join our team. We make a neat saas crm product used by boutique hotels all around the world to communicate with their guests. Fulltime remote is an option but we would prefer someone who wants to come live in Whistler and enjoy the outdoor lifestyle and be here to help mentor other junior devs. Our office is a short walk from the gondolas for skiing in the winter and mountain biking in the summer. Come work with an amazing team who never miss a pow day.
Probably gone amiss in this whole thing. Apple technically could post this letter under the proposed legislation because they are not a "telecommunications provider" which is a specific term in UK law referring to those companies who provide telecoms services usually mobile operators, BT etc.
Apple is not a licensed telecoms provider as they would never of been able to provide iMessage in the UK as it lacks any ability for real-time intercept a requirement on telecoms providers.
Just had a look at my local resort Whistler and you kinda need to update it, the run difficulties are graded differently. We go green > blue > black > double black
