I wonder if they are doing this poo poo now to cover their earnings loss http://www.theverge.com/2015/2/6/7991827/sec-investigating-blackberry-trades quote:Wall Street was pretty excited about the prospect of Samsung buying BlackBerry when Reuters reported talks between the two last month. The Canadian smartphone maker's stock surged to its biggest single-day gain in years, according to CNBC, only to come back down to Earth after both companies denied any acquisition deal was in the works. But now the US Securities and Exchange Commission (and its Canadian counterpart) are investigating suspicious trading activity that — perhaps too conveniently — coincided with the big rumor.

quote:Snap2Chat and Snap10: This application is an extremely high-risk application with potential remote execution scripts embedded per the developers statements online. In testing, it connected to Snapchat 2x for every ~340x internet connections it made meaning it has the potential to use up-to 300 times the bandwidth compared to the official Snapchat application. It connected to a dozen websites in addition to the Snapchat website, and requested a total of 10 permissions. The application submitted hundreds of hidden advertisement requests to Smaato but did not show them to the user. More importantly, it is submitting user data including name, gender, age etc. in plain text over the internet to a hidden Nemory Studios website. holy lol

Pretty much all of the former RIM buildings have been sold and I'm betting that all the new tenants will be iOS and Android app startups. http://www.therecord.com/news-story/5330883-wekerle-now-owns-six-former-blackberry-buildings-in-waterloo/ Also Huawei is coming to town so I expect whatever engineers are left will jump ship.

An otherwise respectable lady in front of me at the grocery store had one of those square blackberry things. When I walked up it smelled like she had just farted. Shortly afterwards she discovered she didn't have her wallet and had to put her food back.
