Just to reiterate this. Everything is basically tainted at this point. We need to redo tons of standards and we need to exclude the US government from having a seat at the table.

Nobody is completely safe. Even OpenBSD. In light of these new Snowden docs, the following post by the OpenBSD author makes quite a lot of sense. Theo is accusing certain developers of being paid to backdoor the OpenBSD IPSEC stack dating back to 2000/2001 which coincides with the current revalations.

Theo de Raadt's post to the openbsd-tech mailing list.

I use Chrome on Kubuntu which does store its passwords in Kwallet. However, kwallet can have multiple wallets. You are not being forced to store Chrome's passwords in the same wallet that the system stores its passwords at all. The new secretservice libraries and utilities are not stable yet, but when they are, the back end storage for kwallet will be the same back end as gnome.

I predict that this will advance the science of cyberdildonics to the max. I can see all sorts of uses for this type of thing.

If you're playing a file locally, there won't be any packets for you to inspect with wireshark. The browser is opening a file handle and reading data from the file handle.

Do you have a Roku? You can't stream your own content with Roku either, so it essentially the same, just a different manufacturer.

They definitely don't want you to be able to stream your own content. There's a chance that your own content includes pirated stuff, so that will never happen.

I'm not sure why people here want M$ to change their act and get back in the game. I for one am quite happy with M$ being irrelevant and staying that way. Do any of you really want M$ to catch up and become dominant again?

You will retain much much more information if you take handwritten notes in class and then re-write them a number of times into various formats such as outlines and notecards. It's a time-proven method. It beats all techno-gadgetry hands-down.

He thought the idea that he debuted at BlackHat was somehow new or revolutionary. I think the only thing he may have done differently than this advertising agency is to have each node connect to the other nodes using Tor.

I don't see how what you said and what I said are different. I was disagreeing with what the parent said: that the organization was disbanded. It was not, it was reorganized and the name was changed. The main point I wanted to make is that its the same people. You can call it whatever you like, and you can divide it into as many "separate" departments as you like, but its still the same animal. When was the last time you lived in Russia?

Disbanded? Hardly. It's alive and well, it just changed its name to Federalnaya Sluzhba Bezopasnosti (FSB) from Komitet Gosudartvennoi Bezopastnosti (KGB). HQ is the exact same building (Lubyanka), which by the way is the tallest building in Moscow (because you can see Siberia from the basement). It has all the same people working for it that worked for the KGB.

However, they are probably not the group in the government that would be reading your email. That group is the Russian Federal Service for Mass Media, Telecommunications and the Protection of Cultural Heritage (Rosokhrankultura).

Ever. Don't. If you think its a good idea, or you can clear your name or help them figure things out. You can't. Your case is basically finished and you're screwed when you talk to them for any reason without a lawyer present. If you don't understand why, please watch this video.

Perhaps its because Facebook doesn't run secret prisons in Poland and Romania?

If you think you have nothing to hide. Think again. If I had access to all of your phone conversations and emails as the NSA does, I'm sure that I can find something that I can use to blackmail you. Therefore, you do actually have something to hide.
