What does net neutrality have to do that? That talk is about the role ISPs play on the Internet, and whether practices like zero-rating and shaping based on source and preferring your own services should be allowed. Yes, if you want to prov

Absolutely not. Laws are based on ethics, but not everything that is unethical is also unlawful. It's usually legal to lie, break promises, exaggerate, and other things that I would consider unethical. I also submit that the should rem

If I understand the blog post correctly, the bug was in the software that creates (or maybe mounts? Not too clear about that) the encrypted volume. It needs to have the clear-text password in order to function. Then it proceeded to set the
