Maybe he should try to find shelter in a country with sensible copyright laws. Yes, they do (still) exist over here in Euroland.
I hope not, it's been a pretty good label to identify the importance of a "crisis". As soon as -gate is added, you know you can skip the story without missing anything worth your time.
Hope so, it's allegedly less painful when you relax.
Terrorists are to you today what communists were to your father and fascists to your grandfather. Just one intangible group of people that we kinda-sorta know where to find on this globe (along with "there might be some in our country" that we can't find without some new laws that cut down your freedoms) to project your 2 minute hate o
I dunno if "If you watch that movie, chances are you're going to die in a terrorist attack" is a tagline that would make people want to see it. "A movie to die for" might be, but its literal application sure isn't.
I'd ask my appointment to move it somewhere else. Duh.
There's a line between stupid and brave. Brave is to face danger when there's necessity. Stupid is when you face danger when you could easily avoid it without losing anything.
Not? Look at the two nutjobs you picked as examples and tell me it ain't so.
The bigger the group of people who have access to resources that are to remain secret, the bigger the threat that the secret gets out. It just takes one link in the chain to break it, and only one to talk to render a key useless.
Or, in other ways, while breaking a key may be impossible, breaking a kneecap isn't.
War? You mean, like, with weapons and shit?
Don't be silly. Today you don't go to a "hot" war with an enemy of similar strength, with a coequal opponent you go for an economic style of war. Literally so.
The goal is not to bomb them back into the stone age. Only to fleece them. I.e. pretty much what has been going on the past decade or so.
Welcome to the new war.
or the average contemporary game talking to its "always on" server, encrypted to avoid cracks. Or the average MMO communicating with its server, encrypted to make botting harder. Or maybe games isn't interesting enough, how about an encrypted VPN connection tunneling a Windows/XWindow session?
Voice is by no stretch the only real time dependent form of communication.
If A breaks or gets broken, B will emerge to fill the void.
For reference, see content. When content for sale was broken past its usefulness by DRM, download pages popped up left and right where you could get it not only in better quality (no unskipable ads, no "always on" online connection for offline playing...), even the price was better!
Any law has to be tested and evaluated. Never follow any laws blindly for this is what makes dictatorships possible in the first place. And don't think "I was just following orders" will eventually save you.
Laws must not be an excuse to do what simply is not right.
Just out of curiosity, how do you identify voice data when it's encrypted?
You might want to enlighten us what system you would present to replace CAs. It should at the very least solve this problem: How do I verify the identity of the other end?
Without life, Biology itself would be impossible.
