and what makes you think the corporations wouldn't employ their own militia in the absence of that govt protection?

heck even now many large corporations already employ their own security personnel.

won't he be embarrassed when they release it and it looks nothing like his costume!

the NSA has a name for this Tempest

and wouldn't that be the purpose of ACL's and firewalls? you can share the same physical network but with proper ACL's you shouldn't be able to access the financial segment of the network from the hvac segment.

what purpose does any of the hvac machines need on the financial side of the network? any traffic going between the two (in either direction!) should be blocked and send up red flags.

it still applies, "Outlast" just has a slightly different meaning.

who cares who is liable for automated cars, this is what insurance is for. insurance companies will adapt.

do you sit there worrying now who is liable if YOU suddenly decide you have no idea whats going on and cause an accident?

now if you are concerned about the safety of an automated care, which is sounds you are, that is a different matter, but the liability argument really doesn't seem to interesting. i am already liable for my car how does that really change with a self driving car?

now what if it is proven that self driving cars have a better safety record than human drivers?

a similar thing can happen in the US. it is called contempt of court.

H. Beatty Chadwick is the record holder for serving 14 years for contempt of court. This was basically for a divorce. apparently they finally released him in 2009.

according to this:

you have nothing to worry about they aren't changing the value that an amp is on your multimeter.

what is happening is that now in extremely high precision experiments they can now measure an Amp down to say 15+ decimal places using the new definition. previously they had no way to calibrate their equipment to that degree of accuracy.

i am pretty sure it was well known before this that shooting someone typically gets you in trouble

I think part of the reason they tried to sweep digital under the rug was that they were always a film company, not a camera company. even you lament the loss of their film, not their cameras. Kodak was essentially trying to sell the disposable blades for the razors.

Indeed their downfall was inept management, it was mostly wishful thinking on their part that they could just forget about digital. at least from their perspective printing was a very logical step from film. the printers needed a bunch of disposable items such as paper and ink, very much like film in a analog camera. what they failed to notice is that people were happy viewing their pictures on a screen and didn't need to have them printed out as much..

and a smart person installs a switch and turns them off when they aren't in use.

and as an added bonus probably gets you added to several lists maintained by govt agencies, such as the no-fly list.

Could have probably said something similar about airplane travel a hundred years ago.

i believe what happens is that the "bad guys" set up a page containing free porn. but in order to view the porn you have to solve a captcha.

when horny teenager shows up to look at the porn, a bot goes out to the target site you want to compromise and grabs their captcha. you then present the captcha to the horny teenager and have them solve it for you. the bot then enters the info on the target site and just "proved" it was human and so now can do things that only humans are allowed to do. meanwhile the horny teenager is happily looking at the free porn and will probably come back the next day to solve another captcha for you.

but that makes it easier to pin you to other counterfeiting instances where they find those bills with your "signature" on them in a dozen different places. if you weren't using fancy counterfeit bills, then they might only be able to pin you to the place they caught you.

you would have a similar issue with the bluetooth dongle when they catch you using it. "hey we found those fancy bluetooth things in 3 other stores i bet this guy is responsible for those too!"

these people often are caught when they get greedy and attempt to repeat it over and over or do it for such a large sum of money that it doesn't go unnoticed.
