It is worrying to consider that in all likelihood, some people with actually malicious motives, rather than clinical academic curiosity, have probably introduced introduced serious security bugs into popular FOSS projects such as the Linux

This is unjustified xenophobia. And besides, if they were really trying to get bugs into the Linux kernel to further some nefarious goal, why would they publish a paper on it? Simplest explanation is that they just wanted the publication, n

The idea of making the Internet Archive decentralized is a very good one. It would be a real tragedy if the IA burned down like the Library of Alexandria did. I know Archive Team/Jason Scott attempted this a few years back with the IA.

Didn't recognize his real name but once I saw his username was Pi zero I immediately knew he who he was. He was one of the most prolific contributors to Wikinews. Sad news for the project and his family.
