The NSA couldn't shut down PGP (though they did try unsuccessfully to restrict the public's access to it), and Snowden said it's still secure.

We already have PGP, which is open-sourced. Will this be better and easier to use?
To be fair, not every password is a simple word or phrase. If it's a randomly-generated password, you need to store it. I agree that having it on paper and not in some sort of encrypted keychain is an extremely bad idea, and I'm surprised that the Greenwald/Miranda/Poitras team made such a huge mistake.
That's something OAuth already addresses (which is why twitter and Facebook use it). When you log in via the portal page, it gives the third party app a token rather than letting them see your password. The token can be revoked at any time from your permissions page or the company can blacklist that app. Tesla's implementation shares the password with the third party apps AND the token can't be revoked early.
OR someone to log into a dodgy third party site, OR someone to crack a third party site and get all the tokens
Considering how there are US soldiers convicted of murdering Afghans and Iraqis who still got lesser sentences, how did Manning get more years in prison than them?
An old report from a conservative group. As I've said, I've been to many mosques and none have such literature. My mosque is disgusted by such stuff and so is the community. After this article came out, many mosques looked on their library shelves and threw away such dusty publications. They have no relevance to our community not reflect any American Muslim views.
Don't take my word for it, go visit a mosque for yourself.
Boston could not have been prevented by the Muslim community. Dhohar never really attended any mosques, and his older brother didn't share his ideas with anyone at the mosque. You'll recall the only witness accounts at the mosque of his being there state he was thrown out of one for yelling and distrusting the sermon. (It was a sermon on how we Muslims should act more like Marting Luther King Jr.) The leader, Imam Suhaib Webb, threw his full support behind the Boston police.
Again, we're talking about the American Muslim community, which doesn't tolerate Wahhabism. I've been to dozens of mosques in a number of states and have yet to see any Wahhabism. The American Muslim community is a patriotic bunch.
You're an ignorant and bigoted idiot because FBI Director Robert Mueller has credited the American Muslim community with helping catch the bad guys; over 60% of all terrorism arrests since 2001 came about by tips from the Muslim community. Wahabi literature isn't "widely available," you obviously haven't been to a single mosque and are just engaging in ignorant fearmongering.
PGP. It's good enough for WikiLeaks and Edward Snowden and good enough for me
You have to be pretty dumb to install malware on Android
And yet almost a million Android users have.
Charging an iPad over a PC's USB outlets is quite slow, their wall adaptor is a higher voltage and faster.
The service runs in the background and launches iTunes when the phone is plugged in. It's quite handy.
Well, considering how the DEA is complaining that they can't read encrypted iMessages, and Apple got rid of google maps as default partly because google kept demanding more personallly identifying user data, I don't think we should assume Apple always rolls over on stuff like this.
As I understand it, the recording industry has never been more profitable. Yes, they screwed themselves over for the long run, but they don't notice it
