After losing the Pentagon’s JEDI cloud contract things have rapidly progressed from bad to worse, as the US Federal Trade Commission confirms they have launched an Amazon AWS antitrust investigation in Amazon’s Web Service cloud business. It's their turn already?
I'm sure it has nothing at all to do with the Washington Post

"Anti-competitive practices" != "a monopoly"; "anti-competitive practices" = "illegal".

Your misrepresentation of "anti-competitive practices" as "a monopoly" is just as deceitful, either way.

I think the article is badly worded, but it is actually saying the opposite. Looking at the comments you're not the only person who seems to have come to the same conclusion. What the article seems to be saying is that what they are doing would be illegal if they had a monopoly share, but as they don't it isn't.

In a coffee-shop scenario, attackers can hijack “secure” VPN sessions of those working remotely, injecting data into their TCP streams. Coffee shops considered dangerous

What will video games be like when they can truly harness the power of AI? If the machine learning-powered text adventure AI Dungeon 2 is anything to go by, they’ll be open-ended, ludicrously silly, and bags of fun to play. And then they came for the DMs, and I did nothing because I couldn't find my dice bag

One big advantage of having all your company's everything in a single "solution" is that it takes hackers much less effort to get it all.

Microsoft says that Windows 10 1909 feature updates will start automatically installing on Windows 10 1809 devices beginning today to smooth out the update process to a more recent Windows 10 version. Doesn't everyone enjoy a nice forced upgrade now and again?

The FBI also recommends changing factory-set (default) passwords and not allowing an IoT device's accompanying mobile app to gain access to too many smartphone permissions. Maybe even store them off-site. And don't power them.

As in, leave them in the shop?
Makes sense to me.

That was where I was going (but not brave enough to spell out completely), yes.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

And "dark mode" everywhere, because that is something that some developers -- and Only some developers -- are in love with.

The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) recently announced that the WebAssembly Core Specification is now an official web standard. Following HTML, CSS and JavaScript, WebAssembly thus becomes officially the fourth language to run natively in browsers. Coming soon: a brand new collection of malware to guard against

Did they do this because there is someone in the world who is actually crazy enough to want to work with WebAssembly, or as a paid advertisement?
