'The names, pictures and addresses of about 8,000 children have reportedly been stolen from the Kido nursery chain by a gang of cybercriminals.
The criminals have demanded a ransom from the company – which has 18 sites around London, with more in the US, India and China – according to the BBC.
The hackers have claimed they also possess information about the children’s parents and carers, as well as safeguarding notes, and have contacted some by phone as part of their extortion tactics.' |  |

Things were much simpler in those days.
I bought a dehumidifier today and it came with the option of using an app to operate it.
What the hell is that all about? And what's wrong with just using the on/off button? [Post edited 25 Sep 20:58]

Apparently our new washing machine can be controlled by an app. They must be clever apps if they can sort washing, load it, add detergent, take out washing and hang on the line.
It’s pointless tech for tech’s sake as far as I can see. |  |

We had a new central heating system put in last year.
It came with something called a ‘Hive’ app, which has subsequently proved to be a means by which my wife can control the heating remotely on her mobile device.
Spent this afternoon hedge trimming, mowing the front and rear lawns and sweating like a Norwich fan at a family reunion.
Popped in for a bottle of water and walked into a feckin sauna about 5pm.
She’d ‘hived’ the heating on as she left work, because she fancied a bath when she got home and thought the house might be a bit nippy.
This nonsense needs to be dealt with as a matter of urgency… [Post edited 25 Sep 22:50]
