HOLY JEEZUS MAN! Stop feeding the trolls would ya?

Precisely my thought...why the heck would I go to a store and watch netflix? Let alone on my 4.5 inch screen.

Google didn't develop Android, they acquired it.

I think one of the major problems with privacy, is that there are too many opinions on what it is. If we could decide it means what you say it does, then maybe we could get a better handle on protecting it. It is kind of like trying to protect assets on a network...if you don't know what is there, or what it does, how can you protect it?

Actually it is BSD, and BSD is NOT UNIX.

I used a VSAT Terminal (Commercial account, not residential) to backhaul dial up users for a few years. We paid about $1750 per month for 4mbps down, 1.5mbps up. The latency was between 1500-3300ms nearly always. It wasn't bad for dial up, but wouldn't stand up for any kind of broadband.

Just out of curiosity...why would you ever do that? Does that have something to do with your signature?

VPN by design is a secure connection...so, what would you consider the requirements for an insecure VPN to be?

It sounds like OP has some kind of 4G hotspot, as in, it connects to a 4G network and shares that connection out via wifi. So...I would follow the suggestion of someone up there a couple of posts - Find good coverage spots and spread out the access via repeaters of some kind.

Wow! I am not used to getting intelligent replies here...that hasn't happened since about 2001! My bad engrish aside, I was saying that Canonical is a for profit, and any profits to be had from a smart phone with the Ubuntu name would likely end up being reported on their bottom line. It feels to me like they are trying to get the community to pay for their R&D because they don't want to, or can't. I too would be first in line with my hard earned cash to buy one, if only there was one.

I don't quite understand...they are celebrating selling over $10 million worth of vaporware, when the goal is $32 million. Were they actually out to build a new phone, or did they just want to break a fund raising record? I won't be contributing to the hype, they are a for profit company in there somewhere, they need to either build the phone, or shut the fuck up.

Wait...I don't remember any /.ers taking showers!

"upskirt your personal data" I almost spit ice tea on my poor old laptop on that one!! You win the internet award today!

I wish I had some mod points, I would give them ALL to you!

Purchase HOOKERS! Sorry if someone already suggested this, but I didn't want to read all the comments!
