Recently certain Mazda Information, including proprietary API information, was used to create code and information posted to GitHub.com identified in repository of bdr99 ([private]). This repository contains code developed in python (https://github.com/bdr99/pymazda) and javascript (https://github.com/bdr99/node-mymazda), and appears to have been uploaded and used to create computer code associated with home-assistant.io and mobile applications. MNAO analyzed some of the code and determined that the code provides functionality same as what is currently in Apple App Store and Google Play App Store.

Wow, what a rediculous statement that has absolutely nothing to do with copyright. As far as I'm aware you can't copyright the functionality of your app

Why would it have fanfare? It's the same thing they've done for every generation

The metaverse died because it didn't mean anything, there was no clear thing you could point to and say "this is the metaverse". It was a collection of buzzwords designed to sell a dream to investors and nothing more.

Ikea bulbs are better in every way. Open APIs, local control, no account needed, don't even need to use their hub. It's probably the best mainstream example of smart home tech

If you clone a reference to someone you have a completey separate body but any actions taken affect the original as well

That sounds a lot better

Nice to see geoguessr players getting a job. Although "open source team" makes me think "unpaid"
