A poem by Bram Cohen, creator of BitTorrent: The Revolution Will Not Be Monetized
You are in the wrong place
You aren't going to find what you came for
You might as well go home
You aren't going to get rich here
Because the revolution will not be monetized
The revolution will not have a multi-billion dollar addressable market
The revolution will not follow a freemium business model
The revolution will not come free to play
The revolution will not enroll in YCombinator

Some notes about Reporta app since some people expressed worry about Reporta's security.

Analytics

Analytics track you, but they also keep local files really useful for forensics to gather evidence against you.

Google Analytics

Because of course, you need to know if people actually use it when it's developed by a PR firm. Google Analytics tracks a lot of your moves and stored locally in a cache then uploaded to Google servers. Every action is logged.

Leaked Internal Apple Email about Forstall leaving

Team,

We are in one of the most prolific periods of innovation and new products in Apple’s history. The amazing products that we’ve introduced in September and October – iPhone 5, iOS6, iPad mini, iPad, iMac, MacBook Pro, iPod touch, iPod nano and many of our applications – could only have been created at Apple, and are the direct result of our relentless focus on tightly integrating world-class hardware, software and services.

Today, I am announcing changes that will encourage even more collaboration between our world-class hardware, software and services teams at all levels of our company. As part of these changes, Jony Ive, Bob Mansfield, Eddy Cue, and Craig Federighi will be taking on more responsibilities. I am also announcing that Scott Forstall will be leaving Apple next year and will serve as an advisor to me during the interim. I want to thank Scott for all of his many contributions to Apple over his career.

Jony Ive will provide leadership and direction for Human Interface (HI) across the company
