No, unfortunately not. For that I just use an USRP to alert on nearby TETRA handsets, not super reliable though. There are UK companies with a similar commercial products https://www.targetblueye.co.uk https://www.pyt

Those sites are fake. Just like the sites selling weapons are fake. The sites selling credit card dumps with pins are fake. The sites selling hitman services are fake. If they find some idiot willing to send them money to "buy a child

Go on then, link this "dark web" website where they sell people. What do you even mean by "dark web"? Stuff like this definitely doesn't exist on the onionland.

Yes, the article does not give a clear answer. However, simply looking at the text of the CFAA leaves little doubt that you'd be in violation if Netflix clearly communicates that you aren't allowed to log in with someone else'

Yeah, my main point is that it remains far from clear as to how the government would approach a situation like the 2016 DAO hack. >“Exploiting a smart contract” isn’t a specific offense, and some instances might be legal. Exactly, there

It's worth noting that the indictment seems to focus on very specific technical details of how this hack happened, rather than trying to suggest that hacking smart contracts would be broadly illegal. It seems that exploiting a smart co

This seems like a particularly twisted take. Poor people get excessively long sentences so SBF should too? What a messed up line of thinking. A healthy take would be "Hopefully everyone gets a reasonable sentence, SBF included"

This has been refuted over and over again by people who aren't entirely clueless. What's even supposed to be the logic here? Where do you think that "$250M" figure comes? Why are you assigning some special meaning to it?

How come? Assuming multiple people have had access to the keys, it's hardly a given that you'd be caught. Just use Tails or similar to transfer the money to a wallet you control, and don't touch it until many years later when

You don't see how that's an appeal to authority, I don't see how my comment violated the site guidelines. I wasn't name-calling or swiping at anyone, I was merely refuting the parents appeal to authority.
