Bulding something that lasts is a problem now?
Oh what a time to be living

friend or foe ? i didn't even knew about that system before you mentioned it
i wonder what i did in the past for you to mark me as friend, given that my participation on /. is rather low

thanks anyway :)
and hope that you move me back to the friend side of the table in the future ;)

the law exists for a long long time already, its not something Dilma created
and she is also going to be investigated on accusations that she tried to disrupt the investigations

and i am not arguing if due process was followed or not
i am questioning whatever is written on instuto lula's article, cuz it might be full of lies created to discredit the investigation
the institute also critized how Lula was brought to justice to be interrogated, but it failed to highlight the fact the he was asked to come to justice several times before and he kept presenting excuses not to

i for one would love to see due process being followed
but when the people being investigated are the one who control the due process, and you are dealing with stuff that is so fragile as digital data, due process becomes a luxury which you shouldn't expect to last

if it were only Rede Globo broadcasting it, i might give you some reason to doubt that. But there isn't a single news outlet that is covering this situation in the same way. So, yeah...

The article, written and hosted by instituto lula itself, should be taken with a grain of salt The institute is already under investigation because of massive cases corruption.
Also, someone leaked that the police would be seizing the institute, and they emptied it from most of its documents. Its like watergate in here, and the judge presiding the investigation has a lot of popular support because he is finally going for people which seemed to be untouchable in the past.

mod parent up

since the model was created by a human, and human are prone to err, i can argue with the computer model as much as i can

it fell in the Atlantic close to Brazil. Now, imagine if it had exploded on the water and caused a tsunami. Brazil was in the middle of Carnaval, where most people go for the coast to celebrate. That would be devastating.

it is relevant because that's what he has done. Had he done otherwise, the news would be different, focusing the service he choosed to use, and you would be asking that same question.

the analogy was aimed at "But he did say that encryption was making the job of the NSA and law enforcement more difficult." which is nothing new and known for millenia

the president explains the nation that the water is wet, and that fire is hot

in Brazil, there are several accounts of people being guided through slums, with several accounts of fatal encounters

i really hope you are not working on something like civil engineering or as a doctor
