Chris,

The fact you don't own adult comprehensive skills is not a reflection on me
in that I said from the start that the only thing that matters is how
effective the scanning is because it harms everyone.

Without knowing how effective the scanning is, you can't make any
assessments that it's effective.

All anyone knows is that the most important metric is the conviction rate
and since that was left out of the reports, that means they're bullshitting
us.

Because they're not that stupid.
They KNOW the only thing that matters is the conviction rate.

The fact they lambasted Apple without telling us that number is telling.
It implies the conviction rate is dismal (perhaps even zero).

Now I realize you have a PhD (you say) in the biological sciences, Chris,
so I will assume that you clearly understand the difference between
convictions and conviction rates.

I don't expect Alan Baker, Alan Browne or Jolly Roger to comprehend the
difference between convictions and conviction rates - as none of those
low-IQ ignorant Apple zealots has earned even a High School diploma.

But you... Chris... You claim to have earned a PhD, remember.
So you KNOW the difference between convictions and conviction rates.

Therefore, if you reply that you still can't figure the difference out, I'm
going to have to call bullshit on your brazen claim to have earned a PhD.
