Please cite where Starship launch costs will be pennies. I will wait. The total cost has been $15B for 13 launches with less than a 40% success rate according to SpaceX's own standards.

Part of concern back then was anonymity was not guaranteed as the US government was rumored to have some way of breaking encryption that such a service would use. It turned out later that one standard, dual elliptic curve random number generator is suspected to have been backdoored by the NSA.

The problem for Xinuos is even if they succeed at proving this, it means nothing legally. As the district court and the appeals court noted, Xinuos does not have standing to sue. The assets Xinuos purchased from SCO Group in 2011 specifically excluded claims related to IBM/Project Monterrey. Those claims were settled between SCO Group and IBM in 2021. Xinuos tried to argue before SCO Group's bankruptcy court that they had a stake which the court denied. The second reason is statute of limitations restricts any claims Xinous to at most 3 years after they purchased the copyrights in 2011, not 10 years later in 2021. Thus IBM won summary judgement.

And DARPA has a whole program for it:

Probably very little. When demand outstrips supply, where the supply is sourced is the limiting factor. If all the parts were made in the US, there would still be supply constraints.

No this is where Musk goes on Twitter to claim he saved the satellite in a week. When people question how he could have done it without any launches this week, he'll correct those idiots that SpaceX did not do it. It was Musk personally that went into LEO and pushed the satellite with his bare hands.

The Trump administration has has a terrible record with getting indictments. Those indictments they have gotten like the Broadview 6 is currently under scrutiny for prosecutorial misconduct.

While it has not been tested, one argument speculated by a lawyer is that any evidence would have been suppressed since he was denied counsel; thus it could not be destruction of data if the government had no right to it.

I bid $30M + $1. Price is Right strategy.

I have yet to see this "space for pennies" that people keep claiming. The last estimate put Starship launch costs at $100M per launch. Has Starship actually launched a satellite? From what I can tell they are 5 for 13 in test launches with no payload. Total program cost has been $15B so far.

What paperwork are you talking about? You have not provided any background. In the case of Turnick, he was a US citizen entering the US after a vacation.

1) Under certain provisions they can take certain things. They cannot just take your stuff. As for questioning, the problem for the US is they are claiming it was a random stop and also not a random stop depending on which argument looks better. It was random therefore they could search and seize. But Customs said it looking for CSAM materials due to a tip. 2) Border and Customs can seize certain things. They cannot seize anything they want.

You have not detailed anything about our situation and just expect us to read your mind.

Who gets to decide what "matters"? The government does. In this case the defendant thinks the government wants messages and identities of other protestors. The government may be able to get the information with a warrant; they have clearly decided to use the guise of border crossing to obtain that information instead without a warrant.

It is risky as sometimes it takes minutes to get through border control; sometimes it takes hours and flights are missed. Then if you simply forget to unlock because you need to get luggage, you get distracted by other things,

Technically the data is not destroyed now. The duress password deletes the encryption keys from the security chip storage area. All his files remain on the phone's SSD.

Customs has to prove it is counterfeit then the item has to be destroyed. Considering the vast number of authentic and not authentic jerseys, that would be a monumental task for one jersey. An agent can't take home a jersey because they want. Customs agents generally do not seize single counterfeit items. They seize shipments of lots of counterfeit items. A box of 100 counterfeit jerseys maybe. A single one in a suitcase, not likely.
