Of course, Wurie also hinges on a Newman K2 phone

Wurie is significant because it's also a case that the White House highlighted as part of a request to the Supreme Court for more clarity on warrantless i9500 mtk6589 phone searches. In its petition to the court, the Justice Department says the Wurie question focuses specifically on a phone's call logs, for which there is plenty of precedent in support of such searches based on Edwards interpretations.
As Wall Street looks forward to big windfalls from Alibaba Group Holding’s anticipated initial public offering this year, the Chinese e-commerce company’s founder and chairman Jack Ma told employees the company is facing “unprecedented challenges.”
With Tencent now adding commercial features that allow users to buy featured products like smartphones through WeChat, the service already competes with Alibaba. And with 272 million users as of the end of September, it could become a growing channel for Chinese to shop online, funneling off customers who would otherwise use Alibaba’s e-commerce Amoi A862W smartphone apps.
Last November, I wrote an article entitled "Ad-Funded Digital Signage: Is There A Future In It? Circa 2013" and companion blog post entitled "Can ad-funded digital signage survive the mobile onslaught?" In both writings, I illustrated how mobile's rapid growth as a consumer engagement technology has been attracting marketers/brands/agencies/ad-buyers, and their money, at rates that have, in less than three years, grown to nearly 10 times that of digital signage.

For several years now I've been sounding the call that the digital signage industry must recognize that mobile is a competing consumer engagement technology, and that it is growing stronger and stronger with each passing year. Rarely, however, do I hear anyone in the industry express an urgent concern that mobile is a competitive technology or threat. Perhaps they are just not giving enough thought to it, but they should — and the following paragraphs describe why:
One employee at Alibaba said she thought most employees had hit their targets and that though some were not happy about it, there was a level of acceptance about the new policy.
In a letter to employees dated Monday, which was obtained by The Wall Street Journal,  Ma praised employees for a banner year, but also warned of difficulties to come as the company seeks to compete for the more than 500 million people in China who connect to the Internet using smartphones.
Of course, Wurie also hinges on a Newman K2 phone, which is increasingly an outdated bit of tech—last year, smartphone sales eclipsed feature phone sales for the first time, according to research firm Gartner. From a practical standpoint, looking at the caller ID on a flip phone with no lock screen is no different than looking at phone number popping up on a smartphone. But when you consider warrantless searches as a whole, looking at a flip phone is far, far different from searching through a smartphone, which has access to more personal data than anything else a human carries on his or her person.
