Oooh "router level redirect" that sounds serious. I bet it never occured to the creators of SSL/TLS that *routers* could be involved with transferring the traffic.

Heavens no.

Sounds like a certain someone doesn't know how SSL/TLS works.

That's true. However, the browser is going to be the technology that ultimately allows the user to act. So as long as Google, Mozilla, etc make the security risks clear, everything should be okay.

The current set of browser security warnings are pretty effective (giant red screen with lots of scary text). If the end user still approves, it's their fault.

No, the summary is fucking retarded and sensationalist.

It's only trusted by you if you assert that it is. This proposal formalizes the act of notifying of an available proxy and allowing the user to trust (or not trust) said proxy.

That's a pretty impressive way to soak up mod points by saying nothing pertinent at all.

Just throw in tons of "Joe Sixpack can't" and "poor oppressed people."

ORLY?

From TFAbstract:
"This document describes two alternative methods for an user-agent to
      automatically discover and for an user to provide consent for a
      Trusted Proxy to be securely involved when he or she is requesting an
      HTTP URI resource over HTTP2 with TLS."

I think that's what the IETF was trying to do.

Some journalist dickbag is trying to make it sound Orwellian but it's not at all. If you don't *TRUST* the proxy, don't accept it's use. So if it's from Evil Govt, Evil Inc, etc or anyone else you don't trust to snoop, don't use it.

Want a proxy you can trust? Set it up and maintain it yourself. Is that not good enough? Maybe the Internet isn't how you should send that data.

If someone from Microsoft is reading this, I personally don't think I pay enough.

I think the basic ad supported version of Windows 8 should start at $999 at least and go up from there for the more powerful versions.

I always feel guilt buying copies of Windows because I know how much I'm ripping Microsoft off.

Have fun, Dr Lecter.

It's called Slashcoin, it's a new feature of the beta.

Well fuck it, lets rewrite the Linux kernel in bash!

Games are inextricably tied to graphics rendering. <- FAIL

I think you've confused "Games" with "GPU / Graphics Rendering."
