Renewal

I reactivated my subscription to New York Magazine so expect more links to that. I had one several years ago (COVID lockdown-ish) but I was defeated by the app's inscrutibility. As the saying goes, "Fool me twice, OK – sure"... The British government wants Apple to add a catflap to iCloud which is alarming when you consider how data is handled in the UK. This cry (terrorists! children!) goes out every few years until people realise what it's really about (movie piracy). The world is so fucked atm it's possible this is the time, I guess, but people's phones have a lot of money of them now, or at least money that was worth something at the point when it was converted into crypto, so the stakes are higher.
