That was a lot of words to encourage use of authors own tool instead of or aside perhaps even with port knocking. The article hasnt anyway delivered any meaningful reason not to use port knocking, just a few straw-man arguments such as &quo

They havent encouraged it either. I believe in the early days the usage of free was gratis as well, thats the impression I got from the manifesto of RMS. In general my impression is that GNU/Freedom-people avoid the question of compens

I believe the confusion comes partly from freedom software almost always being for free/gratis, and in fact was encouraged in the early days of GNU if I am not mistaken. The GNU stance on freedom software seems to be that it should be

Government can not kill indiscriminately and as a show of force its own citizens as that would upset a lot of citizens as the government is meant to protect them from violence. It has the potential to stir up civil war. It is only then, in

Thats exactly the point of these murders by intelligence agencies. Plausible deniability and "point finger and call tinfoil hatter"-ability at anyone who questions their fascist tendencies.

How often do you use non-USA, non-NATO services? Can you name 1 that has as influence in your life as Twitter, Facebook, Google or Apple? Why? Maybe its because USA/Western people dont have trust in companies from Brazil, Russia China?

Thats why you host it on-site and not with a hosting provider. Any company worth its salt will be able to run one or two servers at its location under its supervision. Hosting providers are for those small php sites that depend on AdWords f

You seem to be confused. The NSA has already sold your CC on the black market. Its just that the buyer hasnt used it, because they cant use it without getting penalties. Penalties which this Chinese vendor would succumb to as well. Now are
