Upvoted because it's good to bring attention to this idiocy, but I don't think the Thai government is going to try breaking the internet. Everyone is hooked on foreign services. Even supporters of the powers that be will go nuts i

In order to successfully pull off the MITM attack against TLS connections they will need a rogue CA or cooperation from browsers. Fortunately Thailand is completely dependent on foreign software and services, and I see no reason why Google,

I agree... except replace third world countries with any network they or their customers can access.

I don't see the legitimate use case here. If they're dealing with inbound TLS connections to their cloud services then they can scan or modify the traffic on the cleartext side of the TLS connection. No need to be a CA. If they ha

At least you know if the police have come for your mail. In practice hosting your own mail provides some control over how to respond to a subpoena. If someone sues you the bar for getting the data by physical force is much higher than it is

The company Articles could require its directors to obey the direction of the autonomous system. And if it doesn't the autonomous system could direct the creation of another corporation with a mandate to sue the non compliant one.

In addition to Namecoin there's also Onename, which used to use Namecoin and has now migrated to Bitcoin. Details on why and how it works are on their blog: http://blog.onename.com/

Decentralized naming is an interesting problem. There are several problems with this design though: 1) Cheap, permanent domain squatting is possible 2) Legitimate domain owners can't recover from key loss 3) Onerous storage requirement

Yeah right. People downloading and seeding this are doing nothing wrong. If you want to do something useful you could try notifying account holders.

There are many reasons that area is how it is, and the presence and legal status of marijuana isn't one of them. The root cause of the situation in the downtown east side is the City of Vancouver's effort to help these poor addict

They're just fishing for information. It's really offensive they even ask, as if it's any of their business at all. Just don't tell them.
