Well, this is scary "Your Computer Isn't Yours"

must be a job of illuminati/aliens partnership

Ask the other mods or admins. I've already said it wasn't me.

If you keep making accusations, you will see me lose my civility.

don't worry. I won't have any kind of conversation with you. that includes accusations. and threatening it's already a lack of civility.

scottkendall i replied to your post. but has been hidden (moderation approval). I don't see the moderator label on your profile. The content is absolutely not provocative. I hope that you'll be able to read it.

@pastrychef was it you who set my post under moderation approval? If so, I'd like to know why.
It wasn't even addressed to you, but to scottkendall and I want to reply to him. There's nothing there to justify a moderation approval. this is abusive behavior.
And I am sure it was you because you were online 23 mins ago. nobody else on this thread was.

If telling you the reality of internet is abusive behavior maybe you should crawl into a corner and cry yourself to sleep. You must have said something to cause the fourm to auto moderate you happens all the time even when just helping someone!

You Obviously with your 15 posts have no idea that @pastrychef is one of the chillest people here and puts up with a lot of rudeness and afterwards is still willing to help when they can.

I'm sure he is an angel on earth but he wasn't to me. but it's ok, I don't care. Anyway, if you care to read what I had to say, you'll realize that it's nothing malicious.
Ps: I'll cry myself to sleep some other time!

I did not see anything outside of telling you the truth, it is obvious that you do care otherwise you would have stoped the conversation already. Just because it is not malicious does not mean that the forum bot did not decide your post required some kind of moderator approval. Just like I said sometimes it decides to moderate a post even when it is just help.

Look. I'm a native New Yorker who grew up on the streets when New York was still fun and I speak like one. Shootings and brawls were part of everyday life in my youth. If that didn't stop me from speaking my mind, you certainly won't.

What some people consider "profanity", I consider colorful and fun adjectives. I feel I already show a great deal of restraint by not using said adjectives in my speech on these forums.

I get often get irritated by stupidity which is why I couldn't resist responding to your posts. If you can't handle it when people call you out, you shouldn't be posting.

okay. understood. btw I cut out some non-essential part:

let’s talk about big sur. let‘s forget that guy’s research and the fact that his hostility to Cupertino is a bit obvious.
Let’s think with our own brain. why this certificate check or malware search must be done online? Why can’t it be done locally? i understand that certificate validity changes, as well as malwares. But as we are used to security updates, why can’t TRUSTD, gatekeeper or anything else get updated so that everything can be checked, quarantined, stopped by my own device? doesn’t it make sense?
you should be in favour of this if you think that “the internet is not a safe place”.
Let’s just discuss this and forget about backdoors and other stuff whose real existence can be debatable.
Please, if you care to reply i’ll be glad to hear from you. Let's stick to logic.
If we could shift the focus of this conversation from being an attack/defence of apple, maybe it would be more constructive.

I tell my wife all the time those words are not profanity they are sentence enhancers. She totally gets angry with me, If I talked here like I do in real life I would have been baned a long time ago.

Because I do not care if you, Cupertino, the people here on this forum, the hackers in Russia, Korea, China, the Gang the us government calls the NSA get any of my data. When my phone or Mac OS gives me the prompt do you want to provide developer data to help improve stuff I click YES. I have nothing that I care to keep private; I do not have nude pictures of my wife; I am not a big picture taking person; most of the memories that I might have are posted online from my friends anyways or stored in my memory (I forget almost nothing); Since children I am no longer wild and party all the time; I do not plan to be in politics so blackmail is not in my future! However, if I was worried about any of those things they would be on a Laptop with the wifi card removed and the ethernet driver not installed. For as long as I can remember people have jumped up and down about privacy, then social media came and everyone stopped caring and started posting everything about their life for everyone to see.

I mean it is not like I am even hiding behind a Screen name!
