Note that the author of this post is the CEO of a company offering a solution to this problem. The whole post is an ad (albeit a compelling one). I just wish he'd put a disclaimer up top to make that more clear.

Wouldn't surprise me if there's some standard procedure for police raids that doesn't distinguish between the two. Keep in mind it's generally not the experts who go out to the various locations.

+1. This is especially true for "Experienced #5" which required me to figure out about 4 letters out of 16 using the regex, the rest being obvious from the clue and the other 4 letters. All the hitchhikers ones are pretty obvious

Wow, I've never heard of that before; you're right, it's COMPLETELY insane. That being said, the LRF version of that would have been amazingly cool.

Not really. The controversy here is over whether or not it would work if they needed it. Range safety is something everyone agreed with the necessity of, and there wasn't a lot of concern that it wouldn't work. (It was basically a

This reminds me a lot of the no-ip.com case. Did anyone ever find out how that was resolved? Apparently Microsoft gave back the domains[1], but did they face any payments for damages or censure? [1] http://www.noip.com/blog&

Why would you be under a NAT? A public IP and a networking allotment is one of the core offerings of almost every cloud provider out there.

No need to get that fancy. If they're in the cloud, they're most likely on Xen, which natively supports full memory dumps. LE goes to the cloud provider with a warrant, they run "sudo xm dump-core", LE walks away with a

I've heard a rumor that it's a directive straight from Jeff Bezos because he wants reporters to have to actually write their own articles rather than copying and pasting. No idea how accurate that is...

They picked up again, planning for 0800 UTC, T-12.

They're recycling now and proceeding. The chatter I caught from the webcast suggests they may try again for around 0700UTC.

by dlgeek 12y ago
They actually called it at T-0:46, just didn't update the counter.

They had an abort at less than 1 minute to launch. They have recycled back to T-13m and holding. The abort appears to have been right after they started to fully pressurize the tanks.

Later in the order they required Microsoft to post a $200,000 bond. Not sure if that actually covers the potential damages.

The plaintiff (Microsoft) is responsible for serving that summons, not the court (The court just issues it). The court didn't even certify the summons until 6/19, and there's no record of service, so we don't know when M
