Comment Re:Tiny little death-traps (Score 1) 190

Turn that around, and look at the number of deaths on the roads. Once this becomes the norm people are going to say "what?! you let any f**ker just get in a car and drive...unaided...what if they're old and blind or with slow reactions? What if they're off their face on drink/drugs? What if they're going too fast in the fog and there's an accident they can't see?" It's going to be considered pretty hilarious.

But the website says not to trust the previous (7.1a - the proper one) version, and to use 7.2 to decrypt only (stupid, because you can do that with 7.1a). The project will be forked and released by some other people. Do you trust them? Why? Or distrust them? Why? What's your criteria either way? Surely you trust the source code, and the audits thereof.

Comment Re:Truecrypt was the hardest thing for the NSA (Score 1) 566

I see your point, although there are other reasons for that behaviour (two sessions in between your two occasions, where files in the outer/only container are added then deleted).

It would be a reason for Truecrypt to be modified to optionally write random data into outer/hidden containers when they are mounted.

So the naughty torrent sites add a "submit a torrent" link (and add a bunch of linux .isos for good measure). What percentage of the torrents they "host" have to be legit because it stops being a naughty torrent tracker? Or is it about the takedown procedure?
