Apple shut down all of Facebook's internal apps when revoking enterprise certificate
While the insanity continues, Facebook have been hit by Apple who revoked their certificate.
Turns out though, they weren't the only ones. Disappointing to see such disregard for privacy in order to monetize everything about us.

Elon Musk tweeted about this documentary and it's a really good watch. It covers the early days of Tesla, the Nissan Leaf and GMs second foray into the world of EVs.

New logo for MachineQ
I love a good rebrand and this does look like a step up from where the old brand was. Love how my brain completes the A despite the gap in it's left leg.

TechCrunch: Facebook pays teenagers to install VPN that spies on them
I'm not sure what's more insance, that Facebook did this or that there were people interested in selling everything about them for $240 a year.
TechCrunch have since provided an updated:
Facebook now tells TechCrunch it will shut down the iOS version of its Research app in the wake of our report. The rest of this article has been updated to reflect this development.
But Android users will still be able to participate. Who could even think that this was a good idea, no matter the compensation? Got to agree with Gruber:
No regular developer would get away with this. Facebook is betting that their apps are too popular, that they can do what they want and Apple has to sit back and take it.
It's taken far less for other apps to be pulled. It's not been a great year for Facebook and their approach to privacy. What will be uncovered next?
