Comment Re:Regional/cultural issue? (Score 1) 924

We see this rude behavior in central Texas too. Typical of those feeling entitled and self absorbed, demonstrating a complete lack of respect for others and no evidence of civil manners. At the very beginning of the movie, before the advertising, many of the theaters clearly set expectations that cell phones will be powered off and no talking. One regional chain (maybe more) has zero tolerance of disturbing the audience as the offending parties will be escorted OUT, usually to delight of the other movie goers. Prior to movie start, one theater chain ... name reminds me of the Alamo ... airs a telephone recording of a disgruntled X customer that was publicly escorted out. .... actually quite humorous recording ... better than the cartoons! Oh, and for those inquiring minds, on second offense ... well you know, BANG ! ...yes we do ... it is Texas.

Comment go old school (Score 1) 622

For the secret stuff ... go old school ... Write on paper ... with CIA approved invisible ink (make it at home). Use you own chosen encryption algorithm ... then place in envelope and deliver to United States Postal Service.. Congress and corporations are trying to put them out of business anyway, so the popular thought is why would anyone use the USPS? Or invite someone else to function as a personal courier. Yes, it is slow, but it works well for the Mafia and other organizations, e.g Al Qaida. Delivery will be a rental box instead of residential address. Box is changed every 2 to 3 months and paid in cash or prepaid debit card which is not linked to you. These days ... few would suspect this slow but reliable communication. Even if the NSA intercepts and 'attempts' to read ... it will be too late ... as you will have had plenty of time to change to the next previously arranged encryption key.
