Got any better ideas? I don't see any positive progress in the privacy department so pretty much whatever we're doing isn't working. Might as well sit back and make it as difficult as possible for them to do their job. Hell m

It would be fun to flood them with requests though. They apparently have a lot of free time available spying on every woman and child.

Well this is interesting... This may just turn out to be a good opportunity for European companies to take over from Facebook, Google and twitter. It would take a super human effort though. Unlikely it would happen but here's hoping.

I'm so enjoying this... It's going to be a blood bath for Xbox One. If we include the fact that the Xbox will be spying on you in the living room and most likely giving the data to the NSA it's obvious what we should all pur

I don't think the access is intentional just the sheer number of companies involved make it easy to have double agents placed who report to more than one intelligence agency. Just another example of how the program is a complete failur

I doubt there is a country on this planet the US government can't strike a deal with to get his ass back and into prison. However we all have to be grateful for what he did regardless I sure it wasn't an easy decision to make. Goo

The internet is dead folks the only way it will ever be free is if we find a way of transmission of data that cannot be modified mid transit or blocked. Otherwise you will eventually only be able to read what other people want you to read.

Great another way for them to slip in a couple of websites that are not porn related like say... political parody. Just look at T-Mobile for an example they block "objectionable content" like say... some links that show up on hacker news b

I think you're on to something with the backdoor. Backdoors have to be extra secure because if you hack that you have access to all of them. Hell they shouldn't even exist it's like asking to be exploited.

Yes, you don't mount the mechanism that opens the doors when installing the alarm (or cut the wires afterwards). Store bought alarms have a lot of crap the electrician never hooks up so what's the difference not mounting this one.

Welcome to the eternal dilemma of geeks everywhere. When there's so much to do how do we find time to do anything else. The answer probably is we don't. You're just going to have to find your priority and stick with it whatever it is.
