Haven't read the ESC's guidance document, but clinical trials are going to change drastically in the future.
Telesurveillance and telemedicine will become much more acceptable now.
No, this is completely different. This is a patient group that needs interventions, and the focus of the investigation and the controversy is about the type of intervention... A small stent or a large bypass.
CM's commitment to bringing support to legacy devices is admirable, but they bundle some very annoying, redundant and as OP says unsecured applications with their ROM packages.
CM Account, CM Updater, Movie Studio, File Manager and CM Wallpaper are all apps that I uninstall as soon as I flash a ROM to one of my devices.
Their CM File Manager for one is a totally redundant application that hasn't been updated in a long time, despite being broken (it doesn't work in Super User mode without done juggling about)
Their CM Account is one other thing that I find totally pointless.
CM would be better off bringing more innovative features to Android instead of just copying drivers from CAF and changing headers to say CM instead of CAF or AOSP.
The innovation in the Android ROM community has been coming from Paranoid Android, AOKP, Omni and Slim ROMs, and from the Xposed community.
They've been reduced to being a repo shepherd for certain devices, but most of their user base comes from people running "Unofficial" builds compiled by independent developers.
I think, as a start up, they'd be better off if they focused on features instead of just trying to market CM Phones that essentially run a Nexus like build of plain vanilla Android.
Just install YouTube on an android or iOS phone and use the YouTube TV website on your TV...
You can pair your phone to use it as a controller for YouTube TV...
Maybe they'll release it as Facebook Paper...
But to be honest, if there's a genuine app already bearing that name, they're better off going with something else...
I might have used that if it was made by a company like Twitter.... which advertises, but doesn't meddle with the content.
But seeing that it's Facebook, most of the stories we see will be targeted towards our 'Likes' and the rest will be targeted ads.

Wow. The ability of people to only see what they want to see is amazing.
So Obama deserved a Nobel Peace prize for running a successful electoral campaign, but Edward Snowden doesn't deserve one for making one of the largest exposés of compromises of individual freedom in the history of the world.
I don't know what this company aims to do by handing people who can't afford a square meal a USB drive.... If you guys are on HN and reading this, please stop sensationalising your USB stick and make a real piece of hardware that gets people connected.
Lots of games do that, and that seems to be the only respectable way to monetize....
that and in-game item sales.... but those tend to go too far and then cripple gameplay.
Mobile games have pivoted from being short, fun to play vignettes into honey traps that lure you in and get you hooked to consume your time and/or money.
Every major studio out there makes formulaic bull that basically copies some other schmuck's idea and adds their own "StudioCoin" on top to monetize the game.
Temple Run spawned hundreds of clones, then Candy Crush clones came out and now apparently it's Clash of Clans clones.
Everyone from EA to Mobage does this cloning instead of focusing on bringing new ideas to the table.
If only they tried to innovate, the crappy studios like King would go out of business.
Indie developers try hard, but it takes a team to make a well rounded game with large scale mass appeal... :/
tl;dr Today's mobile games are time consuming black holes, and once done credible competition comes forth, they're sure sink.
