      So this has been changed in their newest release 2.0.0.25 (not sure if it's publically available), and while the credentials are no longer in plain-text there are a few things you lose the ability to do.

      Namely to tell if any given used is logged into a device, and secondly to sign in/out as a user on any given device.

      I've provided my feedback to Yealink and hope to hear back soon. Neither of the above 2 issues are deal breakers, as the bigger goal is to be able to set configuration options, screensavers, time servers etc and have the user deal with the login.

      Especially since the "Web Sign in" functionality is so simple, there is little reason to need the ability to sign in for a user.

      There is also an "I can't even thread" that is updated regularly. Maybe it is time to add that as its own category.

      @mlnews said in Under Armor Security Breach Exposes 150 Million User Accounts:

      Under Armor's MyFitnessPal has been compromised in a breach discovered on March 25 exposing 150 million user accounts.

      I wonder if it is a state sponsored breach trying to obtain location data for things that are officially not there.

      Facial recognition anyone?

      @JaredBusch Including facial recognition, but not really limited to that. @scottalanmiller expressed my thought in a very clear and laconic manner:

      Oh wait, that's a Lenovo product. That would explain why there is spyware that can't be removed. That totally mimics everything we know about Lenovo. Honestly, FB is the least of your worries there.

      That’s a bit of a click bait.

      The iPhone automatically requires password after two days or after power reset. So it is not an automatic get me in method.

      I am not sure about android device settings but I would assume it is similar.

      Wow, the hits keep coming. I feel sorry for all the people that work for facebook if this gets any worse. I did find it strange that I had to remove Ireland from from our block by region firewall list. Totally shut down Facebook. I wonder if they take advantage of the low tax rate somehow by doing that. Hmmm?

      Facebook, like nearly all tech companies, have big offices in Dublin. Dublin is the EU's silicon valley.

      Maybe its for the Guinness? 🙂

      Good a reason as any.
