If you expect them to take out significant nondischargeable loans to pay for it then yes. Taking out a bunch of debt to go into poorly paying fields is an easily avoidable trap.

I guess all of the other stuff was implied in your 'American companies bad and greedy' comment, sorry I missed that.

Comparing the crap China does right now, and has done for decades, with your speculations on what 'bad orange man party' purportedly wants is some really advanced whataboutism.

Yes, because there is absolutely no other reason why Chinese EVs are cheaper. Just ignore the virtual (and actual) slave labor, skipping R&D costs by stealing IP hand over fist, strip mining for materials with no regard to environmental concerns, disregard of consumer safety, and massive subsidies from the authoritarian single-party government.

The math doesn't math.

It's the attacker site that frames the victim site in this attack, not the other way around.

> The NSA compromised lawful Russian interception infrastructure, SORM. The NSA archive contains slides showing two Russian officers wearing jackets with a slogan written in Cyrillic: "You talk, we listen." The NSA and/or GCHQ has also compromised Key European LI [lawful interception] systems.

Are these the same sort of 'lawful interception' systems that western governments are constantly trying to ram through "for the children"? The ones that they constantly assure the public are 'secure' and will only be used for 'lawful purposes'?

Google, Amazon, Cloudflare, Microsoft, etc?

The AI we have today is not capable of the kind of malice that people seem to be afraid of with all of these FUD stories, and will not be any time soon if ever. Even if we add some AI to things like drones which can kill people it is only the malice/incompetence of the developer that causes the destruction that results. If an engineer built a bridge woefully inadequately, either on purpose or because he is incompetent, and it falls down and kills a bunch of people would you blame the bridge or the engineer? We are not even remotely close to the Terminator level strong AI, and it's still a big open question whether such a thing is even possible at all.

Formal logic: Yes Troubleshooting: Yes Basic computer skills: Yes The fewer people who think computers are magical devil machines and can figure out how to solve technical problems on their own the better, but the vast majority of people will not write programs.

When more of them can be used offline (when it's easier to make them work offline), then they will be more prominent.

Half the web developers out there can't even prevent simple cross site scripting let alone the dozens of other common threats that exist in web development. As with adding any other new development feature, it's just giving people who don't know any better more ammunition to shoot themselves in the foot with. There needs to be more focus on educating developers on security instead of trying to cram every new buzzword tech they can into their application.

There was a company that already tried to do this with games, they got some VC money and then ran into the dirt. At this point the vast majority of user hardware is all but useless for mining. This would have worked a couple of years ago, but not now.

That would seem to be a matter of what the default configuration is. Do these DNS servers have these protections enabled by default, and are then disabled? Is it that they left it off by default on older versions? Do they still leave it off by default?
