Zoom 不提供 End-to-end Encryption 給免費版用戶

Zoom 解釋免費版將不會有 End-to-end encryption 的時候，大家都傻翻了：「Zoom's Commitment to User Security Depends on Whether you Pay It or Not」，這邊 Bruce Schneier 引用了 Bloomberg 對 Zoom 的 CEO 袁征的訪談：「Zoom Transforms Hype Into Huge Jump in Sales, Customers」。

Corporate clients will get access to Zoom’s end-to-end encryption service now being developed, but Yuan said free users won’t enjoy that level of privacy, which makes it impossible for third parties to decipher communications.

“Free users for sure we don’t want to give that because we also want to work together with FBI, with local law enforcement in case some people use Zoom for a bad purpose,” Yuan said on the call.

繼續看隔壁棚的發展...

Intel CEO 做的真不錯 XDDD

在發生爆發前一個月把自家 Intel 的股票賣到最低限度 XDDD：「Intel was aware of the chip vulnerability when its CEO sold off $24 million in company stock」，引用的新聞是「Intel's CEO Just Sold a Lot of Stock」：

On Nov. 29, Brian Krzanich, the CEO of chip giant Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), reported several transactions in Intel stock in a Form 4 filing with the SEC.

所以十一月底的時候賣掉... 只保留 CEO 最低限額 250 張：

Those two transactions left Krzanich with exactly 250,000 shares -- the bare minimum that he's required to hold as CEO.

來看看獲利會不會被追回 XDDD

Cloudflare 的 CEO 將被傳喚說明濫用權力

Cloudflare 的 CEO Matthew Prince，將會被法院傳喚說明 Cloudflare 在沒有收到法院傳票的情況下就終止服務的原因，以及一直不肯在沒有法院傳票的情況下移除盜版網站的 policy：「Cloudflare CEO Has to Explain Lack of Pirate Site Terminations」。

預期會有兩件事情被拿出來訊問，第一件是推廣新納粹主義以及白人優越主義的 The Daily Stormer 被主動終止服務：

In August, Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince decided to terminate the account of controversial neo-Nazi site Daily Stormer.

第二件是終止網頁挖礦的服務：

Just a few days ago Cloudflare suspended the account of a customer for using a cryptocurrency miner. Apparently, Cloudflare classifies these miners as malware, triggering a punishment without a court order.

應該會有很精彩的結論 (對 Cloudflare 不利)，來等著看戲...

Uber 在倫敦將會被停業

Uber 在倫敦將會被停業：「Uber has license to operate in London revoked」、「London regulator announces Uber ban」、「Uber London loses licence to operate」。

更精確的說是不再續發 license，舊的 license 只到 9/30：

Transport for London (TfL), which operates public transport in the capital, has made the decision not to renew the app-based taxi’s license in the city.

The license was renewed in May, but for a period of only five months. It will run out on 30th September, though the company will be allowed to continue to operate during the appeal process.

看起來主要原因是圍繞於 Greyball (利用演算法躲避執法人員的工具)：

According to the TfL regulatory board, the ‘approach and conduct’ of Uber showed a lack of corporate responsibility, which could have resulted in public safety and security issues. It also raised concerns with the company’s ‘approach to explaining the use of Greyball, software that could be used to block regulatory bodies from gaining full access to the app.’

新任 CEO 則是出來道歉：「Uber CEO apologizes for “mistakes” in London」。

其實是利益團體之間的衝突... 這戲還在繼續演。

CMU 推出 Product Management 的課程

CMU 的 CS (Computer Science) 發的新聞稿：「Carnegie Mellon Offers New Master's Degree in Product Management」。

副標也清楚寫出是一年的課程：

One-Year Program Turns Computer Professionals Into "CEOs of the Product"

除了 CMU CS 外，也結合了 CMU 的 Tepper Business School 一起開：

A joint program of the university's School of Computer Science (SCS) and Tepper School of Business, the Master of Science in Product Management (MSPM) program will start January 2018.

另外一個不同角度的 Product Management。

微軟曾經規劃以 80 億美金購買 Slack

TC 丟出來的消息，宣稱微軟曾經規劃以 80 億美金購買 Slack：「Source: Microsoft mulled an $8 billion bid for Slack, will focus on Skype instead」。

不過這個計畫被微軟 CEO Satya Nadella 與前 CEO Bill Gates 給擋了下來，認為不如把這筆錢放到 Skype 的研發上：

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates and CEO Satya Nadella were among those unconvinced by the idea, with Gates pushing instead to add more features into Skype to make it more competitive with Slack in the business market, our source says.

我也覺得微軟高層的角度比較合理 (以手上有的資料來規劃)，雖然這幾年下來 Skype 愈改愈爛...
