Why did you have to bring up the specific "CyberVor" incident that has been called out as bullshit by several people in the security industry?

Lynx over mosh?

I don't think you've ever actually been on a bad connection. mosh has saved my ass more than once when I've been stuck with a satellite connection in the middle of nowhere. (Try fixing a failing loadbalancer while on a transa

IDK what world you live in, but in my world I'm not getting actively MITMd by "amateur bad guys". If that was the case, my NAS would be the last thing I'd be worrying about. Also, what security do you expect SSL to provi

That particular text seemed to be talking about hard drives, not SSDs. Most SSDs support secure erase, unless the drive is defective in which case physical destruction is in fact required. Extracting data from a fully rewritten HDD is compl

>Sometimes I can't enter a text password, it only accepts a fixed-length hexadecimal string (happens on Windows a lot). Again why? Um, maybe because WEP passphrases are fixed length hexadecimal strings?

Outsourcing sensitive data destruction sounds like a EXTREMELY good idea. Also, the fact that the faq page contains blatant lies makes this company seem even less trustworthy. "The only way to make sure that your data will never bee ac

This is hardly an issue with a system that by design allows payment reversals. If you get defrauded, just chargeback.

Warden in fact has capabilities to scan absolutely anything on your computer, but it only does it when new cheat definitions are shipped. (This only happens during mass banwaves which happen every couple of years)
