Her ability to be empathetic about others that are not like her exists in a social (in large part one-way media) framework that either encourages, or ignores or actively discourages such thoughts. To be passive you have to go with the flow,

Does the Qubes Tor container egress filter non-Tor traffic? If it does not, it would still be susceptible to a linux-specific version of this same attack.

Consumers of child pornography are probably inclined to save the images. TAILS would be a lot more invconvenient since it doesn't save anything. With TBB you can save things you download to your desktop. Combine this with Windows being

If you are an active Twitter and/or HN reader you are already reading everything that is posted on Slashdot about two days before it is actually posted there.

I agree with you. In my opinion the crappiness of Slashdot accelerated with the politics-for-politics-sake tone of the whole site roughly about time of the 2004 US presidential election, which lead to a formalization-legitimization with the

[EDIT: edited typo, clarified what TAILS was] I had mentioned (split between a couple other posts) that even with JS enabled, Noscript will prevent many XSS/CSRF and clickjacking attempts, which has been explained to me as the reason f

The author never explained how the contents of that paper were related to the js attack on freedomhost users. It just seemed like an aside about the security of the Tor network in general. Since they (allegedly) found the guy running freedo

It is my experience that even when informed, most people cannot or will not do due diligence to understand the potential risks or long-term consequences of these things, nor will they make the connection to how it could affect them. When it

I would like to be able to take an older smartphone and use it as a smartcard-like device but with a full-fledged computer on it. For example, being able to use a Motorola Droid with a USB cable as a password manager. Keep the key secured

I have seen assertions over the years that forced confessions are common too. No idea how to even verify this, though.

There are institutional and legal barriers to third party candidates. It is disguised pretty well but is obvious when you know what you're looking for.

As of a few years ago the federal government has started a "trusted foundry" project to sign on and create new domestic fabs. I don't know where it's at, but the intention has been stated.

It is possible in Arizona to create "charter towns" that can largely override state law with their established charter. As a thought experiment I have toyed around with the idea of a town with a charter based on radical transparen

It will just sit there until they have eroded our rights sufficiently that it can be used for any purpose. Storage is cheap, in particular when you print your own money.

I had a friend who worked as a security guard at a factory. Sometimes I would come down and visit him in the guard shack. He showed me a controller he could use to point a security camera, and he excitedly showed me how it could be pointed

Does federal law take precedence for state regulation? It just seems like California has a narrower definition of "money transmitter" for the purposes of regulation inside their own borders above and beyond the federal one. Also,

I didn't think I had to clarify that a nonprofit taking donations in USD would count as money transmittal since that would apply to all nonprofits accepting donations. But I take your point, my statement was all-encompassing.

Just a small quibble, if you're typing in the textarea the website or any other extensions you have in your browser could spy on the plaintext as it is being typed. A secure browser extension would have to call an external program, let

I have always wondered about this. What kind of security do you really get if, for example, your SSL key is distributed to a couple thousand CloudFlare servers all over the world?

I don't know why this necessitates the removal of supernodes though, because it has always been the case that desktop clients could disable supernode functionality with a checkbox option. Why would it ever be enabled (or even an option
