1. Go to TPB. 2. Grab any random link (such as http://thepiratebay.org/torrent/6718164/BLACK.DAWN.2005.StV.DVDrip.Swesub.XviD.AC3-Mr_KeFF ) 3. Try to post it to Facebook. Noticed this a while ago when trying to link to the movie Steal This Film, a documentary about The Pirate Bay, published through BitTorrent by the producers. I wonder what else is on that blacklist...

I wonder whether it reflects poorly on the U.S Senate or myself when my first interpretation of this title was that he wanted to place explosive mines on the Moon...

I'm sorry, what?

Most browsers don't run in a particularly well secured sandbox. Sure there are additional security features, but the majority of people today still seem to be running (1) outdated browsers (2) as administrators (3) without any clue whatsoever regarding security.

A security flaw exposed from this fuzzer could easily end up being a major trojan outbreak. Not exactly something you fix by restarting Firefox...

Also worth noting that TT (Swedish News Agency) and SÄPO (The Swedish Security Police) received a mail around 10 minutes before the attacks informing them of the terroristic nature of the events. It seems people did not really realize we were even being terrorized until they checked their e-mails.

Although I must admit this is a bit of a new approach... Ask the rest of the world for a shell on their boxes and mass upload. The point of having a lot of nodes copy the main one is redundancy, if someone *cough* The US *cough* get into Wikileaks stuff, what's to keep them from just logging onto all these servers and erasing the copies too?

Taking a redundant system and making it dependant on a single node... Not too clever.

Had a similar experience on the bus a few weeks ago, five people sitting in a row talking to themselves. I probably wouldn't even have noticed the crazy one if he hadn't been wearing a cape, a trash bag and flip flops (Swedish winter) - and the lack of a phone upon closer observation.

Not to mention the differences between monitors.

At my previous job we differentiated different tickets through a coloring scheme. These colors were pretty much unique (luckily there weren't that many tickets), but still helped a lot. It's quite effective just using basic pattern matching against the title of the ticket and the background color.
Every now and then, a monitor would go dead and be replaced - Suddenly all the colors had shifted, ranging from miniscule amounts to red going dark brown. Color might be a good idea when you don't actually need to reference anything by it. Documenting colors would be impossible.

Finally, us, the geeks, will be the overlords! Disobey our commands, and we might just ARP-spoof your default gateway into a concrete wall!

Remind me again how WWII ended for Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

I do believe I'm still innocent until proven guilty?

To share this kind of information as soon as someone accuses me of doing something wrong is really bad. Especially considering all the frivolous DMCA-crap flying all over the place.

According to the same source (SR), the authorities did not seize any assets and left shortly after inquiring about 2 IPs. Not exactly the same MO as the previous raid, where they took down every machine in sight in the hunt for TPB.

March 2005?

Actually, I hope they do implement this dumbass idea, and do it in such a moronic fashion that ISPs suddenly stand to gain a lot from encrypting traffic. Maybe it's the push needed to make encrypted connections standard.

Of course the Goverment would realize this and I get the impression they don't really approve of when people talk without them listening in...

This is incorrect.

Right now, according to PP's own website we are currently the 5th largest party. Also, according to Sifo the sum of "Other" parties have around 1% of votes, with PP somewhere in that 1%.

Unfortunately, I'm somewhat doubting our ability to make it in the elections (about 4 months remaining). All the fuss around TPB really got us a lot of media attention, but it seems people lost interest a while ago. For a while I got approached by random people on the street who wanted to ask about TPB and PP and wanted to discuss copyright, and these days I rarely hear or read anything about it in the mainstream media.
