Actually they dealt with this in the video too. Encrypted security certificates. They also pointed out that several companies now do this. But good question +1

Well I would be interested to see their solution to a hydraulic jump,or even the backwater curve behind an obstruction in the flow. Should be pretty easy for them as it involves an incompressible fluid.

Good because you have a penetrating mind, and the subject is too important to squabble over. I actually found the YT on an electronics engineering site where some of the discussion was about hacking routers, and how the TV had the capacity to do this.- Orwell spying mark 2 ?
I see this as part of a pattern, not one isolated company trying to gain a market advantage. I have a first gen LG smart TV. When I first set it up it was oh goodie it has internet so I can get BBC iPlayer Plugging in the ethernet cable and clicking on the icon directed me to LG not the BBC. Getting the player through LG was so clunky I didn't bother further. But I did then wonder why I needed to go through LG to get to the BBC. That was 2016. Roll on 2026 and we have been upgraded to internet phones, a new router and other stuff. So I treated the TV like a wifi device (its not wifi by itself) got a cheap bridge and tried again. Bingo BBC iPlayer, via LG, now works properly. So LG have been working on their data centre end. Just as the YT article suggests. Unlike the TVs in the YT article my TV does not have a microphone, and I still can't imagine why it would need one. But back to the pattern. Channel 4 or 5 recently had a series of investigative documentaries about modern technology. The electric car one was very interesting, where they described and showed how at least some makes were spying on the occupants and at least one would not actually go unless it was connected to the internet, and could be immobilised by the factory at any time. In the UK we are being constantly exhorted to adopt 'smart meters' for electricity and gas. They do not tell you that the companies are stealing wifi and/or mobile phone capacity from users who are funding their networks in order to report back to their headquarters, by means of a daisy chaining process of signal packets. Nor do the gas companies like to admit that they need to connect to a consumer's electricity supply in order for their smart meter to work. The pattern I am referring to is that many large organisations now consider themselves above the Law of the land. We have seen some reference to this here at SF by other members. The shrug was a polite way to say that you are not obliged to view the video. There was enough text by me posted with the video for you to decide whether you were interested or not and to ask for further detail if the former case prevailed. Further you totally ignored the summary I actually offered in a second post following your request. Consequently I reject your beef as bogus.- Orwell spying mark 2 ?
Good one line summary SJ. +1 But it is a long video and goes much further. Shrug. Can you summarise the Bible ? It is a very long video of many parts. These guys have been analysing thousands of lines of code (somewhere they mention 40,000 lines or words of disclaimer they encourage you to select all to approve. The outcome is that even when disconnected these screens monitor everything around them including trawling all networks and the network devices, your speech, and much more. One section had a doctor asking how he could have a confidential discussion with his patient when one of these screens was simply in the background ? I am not american, though these folks are, but it is suggested that there is corporate trampling all over the 13th amendment, though I don'r actually know what that is. It is the overall capability of the system that is concerning, not to mention the fact that the largest amount of digital traffic is now not human generated, which has serious implications for why we, the public, are paying for data centres that service these systems not us and generating huge amounts of unnecessary of global warming. Do this give an overview ?- Does science have a natural endpoint?
Yes the 3 body problem is difficult, but what about the many body system ? How many bodies are there in the universe ? But no new physics or maths is needed. It is like the problem Solve the simultaneous equations x + 3 = 15 x - 3 = 15 Solutions to the issues I mentioned will need new maths and/or new science. But please don't stop thinking about it there are plenty of further examples.- Does science have a natural endpoint?
We still only have two proper solutions for quantum mechanics. One for an isolated hydrogen atom (Schroedinger / Dirac) One for a single loose electron in electron bonding (Koenig Penny) We have yet to have any full solutions in Fluid Mechanics to the Navier Stokes equations. 2008 saw the failure of our so called solution to the Black Scholes equation in economics. We have no way of predicting the actual failure load of a simple piece of rope, we can only pull it apart and measure it. The list of what we don't know goes on and on. You are reading the wrong books if you think otherwise.- Orwell spying mark 2 ?
Truth or still fiction ? Scary or what ?- The role of Phytic acid in dietary chemistry
I hope everybody had a good laugh at my misspelling of zinc, even if no one mentioned it. Thanks for the replies, I was not investigating in relation to cancer, although I do know of a cancer patient who received emergency treatment for excess calcium in their system. I was actually trying to understand the conventional instructions vis a vis calcium tablets, taken for skeletal reasons - That is to separate in time by one to two hours the calcium tablets from any foods known to contain a significant phytic acid content. The conflicting statements were about the methods of destruction/reduction of phytic acid in those foods. It occurred to me that with 6 number OH groups, PA should be especially sensitive to microwave cooking, although apparently dry heating does little damage.- The role of Phytic acid in dietary chemistry
Yes thank you. I am investigating the effect the takeup of trace minerals, particularly calcium, iron and since by human digestion. Phytic acid is apparently an inhibitor to this. https://hal.inrae.fr/hal-04667584/document- The role of Phytic acid in dietary chemistry
I am somewhat confused by The role of Phytic acid in dietary chemistry. Can anyone offer some non conflicting information ?- The Wash Igneous Complex of eastern England: A candidate Avalonian source for Sandbian tephra in Baltoscandia and implications for closure of the Tornquist Sea
It is very common to show the skeleton outline of modern day continents and countries superimposed on maps of ancient continents. It is important to realise that many parts of a modern country may not have existed, simply been under water at the bottom of a sea. at the time of the ancient map. Watch this Gif animation of Britain and you will see what I mean. Sorry it is not very large. Green is land, brown are mountains/upland, blue is sea the outline is white and the white blob is icecap. EDIT Sorry various browns are used for different things, uplift, vulcanism, land generation from sediment deposition.- Education in Mathematics
These two activities are not incompatible. We have a local radio presenter, the son of a farmer and a welder by trade, who is also well into local show bizz and builds carnival carts and other stage stuff.
