Not sure where 29 seconds came from. I didn't see it in the article linked. Official NASA count is 1 minute 21 seconds... not that it's too significant of an error in the original post.

"The SpaceX Falcon 9 launch scheduled for this morning at 6:20 a.m. EST aborted with one minute, 21 seconds left on the countdown clock. A thrust vector control actuator for the Falcon 9’s second stage failed to perform as expected, resulting in a launch abort.

"SpaceX is evaluating the issue and will determine the next opportunity to launch the company’s fifth commercial resupply services mission to the International Space Station. The next available opportunity to launch to the station would be Friday, Jan. 9."

How about the DMCA?

Quoting the article linked:

"[...] the DMCA, the law that broadly bans circumvention of copyright protection, has been interpreted as making it illegal to unlock your phone so that it works on a carrier different from the one you bought it for. That's because the Librarian of Congress, given permission under the law to make exemptions to the DMCA, had determined that the U.S. cell phone market benefited from the ability to unlock phones — but that's now changing, as the librarian's office believes that there are now enough unlocked phones available for purchase that users don't need to hack their own phones. Starting this Saturday, unlocking a phone that was locked to start with will be illegal."

I'm surprised none of the comments so far have made reference to the fact that unlocking only became illegal last year. Instead there's non-sense bickering about cell phone compatibility across networks. Which would have been relevant maybe 3-5+ years ago (as others have pointed out).

People sure do have short memories.

Easy. The client is prompted to re-authenticate with the users credentials. The server transfers the encrypted data and the users key (password protected) to the client. The user password is used along with their key to decrypt the data and store in local storage. You could (and should) even store the data in local storage encrypted, and require the user to re-authenticate to view sensitive information. This is how lastpass works. This is also (in a nutshell) how OwnCloud does server side encrypted storage. http://blog.schiessle.org/2013...
