Thank you for posting the additional more reliable source. It is hard to take anything posted on theoutline seriously. It's like someone citing Fox News. "news" sites that are so politically tilted in one way or another should really be avoided IMHO.

"A staggering 94% of Republicans, 92% of Democrats, and 85% of independents" In a system where single digit percentages are the difference between success and failure I would say this is more of an endorsement of political speech on FB than a discouragement.

Neat, we can finally do convenient two-factor auth on a smart phone. Looking forward to this coming to market.

"young adults ages 18-29. It found that 51 percent of those polled rejected capitalism" In other news, a recent study of young adults aged 18-29 showed that only 49 percent have ever worked to support themselves and paid taxes. :-)

There are private companies already keeping tabs on things you say, tying that to your credit score, creating profiles for you and figuring out your real identity, mapping that to your physical address and then calculating your "threat score" then selling that information to law enforcement. This is so much more invasive and complete than your future employer browsing your twitter or facebook posts. Here is a WaPo article detailing one such system actively in use today. http://wapo.st/1TOtLhC Everyone crying conspiracy/tin foil beanie is only enabling this tech to proliferate. A couple years ago people who knew about Stingray were called paranoid...a couple years before Snowden people who pointed out the NSA's abuse of power were too. At this point I am pretty sure the denial is a self defense mechanism because the reality is too scary for most people to accept.

Fight Uni!

ZOMG another attack vector the NSA will have to monitor! We need to ban this, for the children!!!

Motorola, brought to you by the same parent company that gave you Superfish and adware injections from the BIOS on fresh Windows OS installs...I'm sorry, are you surprised? You must be new here. :-)

I would cheer but you know there's just another warmonger in an expensive suit standing behind him to take his place.

The people that are going to be specifically targeted are the people who have not, or cannot yet purchase a fuel efficient or a hybrid car. Because the state will just turn the existing gas tax into an environmental tax, and then all drivers will be paying per-mile AND a gas tax/carbon-offset tax except EV drivers.

Because somewhere there is a bureaucrat sitting around trying to justify his/her existence? As is the case with many government regulations.

Although true, I don't think calling the FBI "bitches" would be very constructive in this situation.

I know my situation is unique but I found a local govt environment built on legacy tech. I had the opportunity to steer it towards Linux. Find a startup or a datacenter ripe for upgrade (UNIX, netware etc). Also there are a lot of federal positions for UNIX stuff. There will be a lot of Linux opportunities there too.
