Does anyone know how many times failed logins Gmail tolerates? Do they use brute force or just manual guessing? If they limit them to a few failed logins a day or hour and show you the failed logins it's hard to guess even if you have it je

the econ turns instantly horrible when you live in, say, South Korea and find out that you may owe a fortune to the IRS, just because your dad was /is a US citizen.

Big criminals arrange for 120 tons to be shipped to San Diego, but the last mile has to sell it. When you make a few dollars at a time in profit, you need new customers, over and over again. Thee big dealer can also get lucky once and retir

Looks like Hushmail was their weak point. Feds got court order from Canada based on treaty and it flowed from there. But yeah, between advertising, shipping, getting paid and moving money around it's hard to stay anon .

I personally would choose TrueCrypt, but I understand the "let's go with default version" even if it's $100 or so more (upgrading Win 7 Home to the Bitlocker version costs about that). I suspect the ones with Bitlocker will do well if MS sc

Moody's is a joke. When they screw up they claim "free speech" so they can away with it. How's the phone for those HN-ers that have it? That is the only thing that matters. Uncle Ballmer is loaded, he can bankroll this thing for quite a whi

I think you are confusing the issue. I am not posting the Coca Cola recipe on FB expecting it to be private. But it's still a greater degree of privacy than having it indexed and merged with other info Google may have. Think of saying somet

I personally do not want my FB or any semi-private account indexed by Google and shown with tens of of "Is he a child molester, do a background check" type ads. It sucks for Google but that's life. A lot of FB /Apple data is searchable, by

Maybe, but probably not a ship that carries 1000 passengers, 1 million barrels of oil, fish, bring iPads from China or whatever ships are generally built for. So the answer for the real world is probably not.

Metered it is right now (see caps) but if you want 24/7 ESPN and HBO and I just want to email and access CNN.com a few times a day why should I pay for you? The "internet" has changed, it was pages and images, now it's videos and with Xbox,

"Examples" and stats aren't worth a damn thing when it happens to you. When Google tweaks things and you're caught in the middle, 100% of your e-mail, Adsense, Adwords, Apps, GAN, Docs or whatever is cut off with almost zero recourse.

My advice for those that have other Google services tied to an email account: do not use that account to send email. You minimize the odds of getting banned and frozen out of a lot of things

Congrats on making it to page one, your account will be restored within hours. Many have their adsense and Adwords linked to suspended Gmail accounts too. It can cripple their business.
