Why pasting as code making it impossible to click on it?

When people here (in SF) say "Silicon Valley" most of the time they mean everything from San Francisco to San Jose. I you're going to Mountain View, etc., you usually say "down the peninsula" or sometimes "the

the "US Persons" protection in general is a distraction from the power and danger of this system. Suspicionless surveillance does not become okay simply because it's only victimizing 95% of the world instead of 100%. Our fou

Not a jurisdiction, but your data is pretty safe from warrantless wiretapping in a Tor .onion server.

Even if the scandal was a side effect of Chinese spying (a speculation at this time), what matters is that this broad surveillance is threatening democracy. I think Snowden has chosen the best place to go. He wouldn't be safe anywhere

It could be as easily be the case that Candidate Obama was free while President Obama is blackmailed. That's the problem with centralization, with representative democracy. A single point of failure is a bad idea. It's time for

There's no way to know if you're really Kevin Poulsen. Your account was created an hour ago. It could be someone trolling. If you want to prove this is you, you could link your comment from a tweet. I've read more about yo

I'm waiting to see what the EFF says about this. Is all the information there? I hope that's the case.
