For starters, its definition of "intrusion software" that originally was meant to stem the effect of spying software such as FinFisher and Hacking Team, has also apparently snared many penetration testing tools. Also, despite the Commerce Department's insistence that vulnerability research does not fall under Wassenaar, researchers say that's up for interpretation.

Because nobody wants to piss off military force, that being the NSA because they will be put out of business and they know it. Already to many security related businesses that actually conceptually cared about security has had to shut down as a result of fear of previous interpretations of the law made by these military forces. And ya'll thought it was just the airline industry was fuxored.

An economic/social collapse is what those in power need to roll out martial law and complete the final stages of the "fundamental transformation of America" to a police state.

They are going to get it because it is the desire of those in power, CIA analysts have come forward now stating that the "3rd world depression is no longer avoidable". I think world depression is a bit on the dramatic side though, I think the rest of the world is likely to contain it to the US/UK. Rusky/China have been getting cozy for a while now and getting in good with Saudi for oil and our dumb ass's keep printing money to keep the gubbmints doors open stressing the Saudi deal dating back to '71. I think what they are trying for is an economic reset of the world books, but I don't think China is going to go for that.

Hot air, nothing compared to the US self imposed brain drain caused by fucked up policy, gamed and broken system. If they don't want to see things that are better in the hands of other countries then they should rethink the way things have been going in the US for the last 60+ years. The policy of 'keeping the people stupid' is not going to produce a superior product in any sector anyway so where are these idiots coming from on this?

Actually, Corporations that got in good with the mob run the government, and neither have much use for the law aside from what money they can manage to make off of it. Take at look at the TPP deal where corps can sue the government now, and the mob has been manipulating the court room since the 30's that I know of. Can anyone say '91 Naples Italy? Going to get real messy if it is ever going to get better, the way things are going that will be post collapse...

Sure, more little dollars for everyone! Anyone bother to think of the ramifications involving this country printing money every 6 months just to keep the governments doors open? They call it hyperinflation and raising minimum wage is a component of that. Want to see where that road goes? Take a good look at South Africa.

They just got an +18B budget for the first time since Bush and crew cancelled the space program. Too bad defense spending still shadows that many times over, and how much have pork have we annually tossed into the wood chipper since then? War and blood money is not everyone's interest, about time they threw some money at the actual advancement of our species rather than acceptance of the bullshit excuse of 'population control'.

Holy war? What holy war? I am curious to see just what percentage of religious affiliation remains in the people that are in positions of power either in public office or military. Perhaps to live in denial of holy war was decided? Maybe the church decided that with the increasing numbers of homeless people in the US, maybe they are outing a large percentage of followers?
