Reading Verizon's plan options is the like gazing into the yawning abyss of creation, being driven insane, wading through a bog naked while cackling at the moon, then coming out the other side to learn that you were never mad, it is the world that is crazy https://t.co/dSaS354AB0 — PolitiTweet.org

I very much want another company to take the crown of "great tiny laptop" now that Apple has discontinued the MacBook. ...this ain't it, though, as @dcseifert writes: https://t.co/qzsSjSmZFF — PolitiTweet.org

Finally, Google, Amazon, and even Facebook give you a website where you can review and delete saved recordings. Apple does not. Some of that is perhaps due to its more aggressive anonymization model, but mostly I think it's because it didn't occur to Apple that it needed one. — PolitiTweet.org

For most people, Microsoft OneNote is the best Note taking app. For people that only use Apple devices, I recommend Apple Notes, which doesn't get nearly the credit it deserves. https://t.co/mwcNeeU3od — PolitiTweet.org

Just to underline: here's how you delete the recordings Siri saves on Apple servers. None of these settings tell you they do that until after you uncheck them. https://t.co/Bn9gDwlvjq https://t.co/5ztGRQgsYh — PolitiTweet.org

Apple’s handling of your Siri voice recordings is a really clear sign that its strident privacy stance has given the company a blind spot: when it DOES collect your data, it isn’t as good as everybody else at giving you controls for seeing and deleting it https://t.co/9p6zmSkein https://t.co/M98BNLzXFP — PolitiTweet.org

@davezatz OneNote or Evernote are probably your best two choices there, if you care about attachments and OCR. I have found OneNote has slightly better OCR. — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

As a part of choosing the best note taking app for most people (which was very hard!), I also asked all the major players about how they secured and encrypted their notes. The answers were mostly heartening! https://t.co/mwcNeeU3od — PolitiTweet.org

Dieter Bohn @backlon

One very important thing to notice about Apple's statement is that it says it has suspended "grading" Siri recordings. That's not the same thing as promising not to store recordings of your voice on its servers. It's just humans grading Siri's accuracy. https://t.co/muiwyVmE2B https://t.co/kQ1dzXWYR0 — PolitiTweet.org

I think my new tap-to-pay credit card is interfering with my clipper card at Bart and Muni entrances so now I can tap to pay but I can’t tap to get on the subway without pulling just that card out and really this is not the future I asked for this is not the future I was promised — PolitiTweet.org
