Talking about it being more convenient for the stores is extremely funny, the real reason is mentioned in the timeline even if he doesn’t want to explicitly say it at the end: removing the date stamp lets them move releases around however they want no matter what, which would be very convenient for WORC if they would rather shove another UB set down the pipeline.

    Yup. It’s a bit of a question of how paranoid are you/you feel you need to be but it may be worth keeping in mind that the baseband modem of any phone is proprietary and runs its own unaudited software the end user has no control over or insight into.

    Yeah it’s one of the classics. In reality, the rich liquidate stocks all the time, particularly large amounts might not always be able to be dumped on the market immediately in one go but well, then it’s simply done over a certain timespan, but generally speaking it takes quite a lot before the market “cares”.
