Seeing the picture of the Apple I reminds us of how far this industry has progressed. From the Apple I to the Apple Watch in such a short period of time. Amazing.

And round the World Free Video Phone Calls..... Back in the Day when I was in the Middle East I remember making Collect Phone Calls from a "Phone Booth" My Sister would be in another "Phone Booth" halfway round the World and would "accept" the charges..... This went on for a while until one day some of the locals informed there were some Folks looking for me and to avoid the Dining Hall for a while...

From the article, so far the privacy label is based on what the developer says. So, it's not always complete and accurate. (likewise, it could be that some of this is based on developers using outside frameworks that others have already made, and things are included in that) But, just like the IRS requiring a checkbox saying you don't have cryptocurrency to declare or earnings from such, it gives a catch for possible enforcement in the future. One should always consider how someone gets paid. Not every developer is completely altruistic, just wanting to give away a cool app. Like a tow truck driver who charges less for similar service, is he getting paid off by one of the service stations he brings you to? Reading Flash Boys, about HFT and Dark Pools, it gets you seeing some of the ways people are profiting. Sometimes it is fair enough, a cost of doing business. Other times it isn't.

This week is apparently going to be all about a short squeeze in silver. It might make the market take another leg down as people pile into silver and funds that are short have to offload their other positions (inc AAPL).
