All users complain at least sometimes
But if I was a MS PR person in charge of destroying the Munich Linux symbol, I would leverage user complains to motivate a switch: Vox populi, vox dei
"no programmers required" they say... Good joke!
The company whose boss said I should not expect privacy on Internet will soon have satellites. What could go wrong?
Indeed with 25cm resolution they cannot recognize people, but they can still track their movements. And combined with data from smartphones, identifying someone gets easier.
it's silly to talk about how factor B might overwhelm factor A when you don't have numbers for factor B.
Nor for factor A!
TFA is vague on that point: do they switch off some server during idle hours?
Such a practice seems good for power consumption, but we have to account the fact that switching on and off shortens hardware lifetime: it creates temperature stress, and we all know that electronics most often die at power on time. Hence what looks like a power saving may hide bigger costs (either financial or environmental) for hardware replacement.
They encrypt inside memory, but with what keys? How easily accessible are they?
The usual tradeoff here is choosing between something that can reboot unattended, but with private key easily accessible, or something that need a password to be entered on restart to decipher the private key
OpenBSD is security. Security is OpenBSD
If you think that choosing OpenBSD will magically produce secure setups, you are doomed.
While I acknowledge valuable security-related work in OpenBSD, a moto such as "Only two remote holes in the default install, in a heck of a long time!" is harmful PR speak. Who use an OS as in the default install, without touching any settings? Just configuring the network push you out of default install (and you win two more remotely-exploitable holes in DNS resolvers).
And we could also speak about the numerous "reliability fixes" that are often really security fixes you should install to remain secure.
In France, all major operators have been offering for years a public WiFi service, using their customer's modems.
The feature was pioneered by an operator called Free (with its well known "Freebox" Linux-based modem), and others had to offer the same. Free may buy T-mobile, which should seriously push Comcast to fix its problem.
There is another leaker, except if they failed to revoke all Snowden's accesses.
But I could not seriously imagine such ridiculous outcome.
Here's the difference - we have firewalls on the Internet.
Which explains why web site are never hacked, and why it happens everyday in cars.
Oh, wait....
