It was just relaxed. But Digital Globe doesn't yet have a bird in the air capable of it. In the fall they will, and it will be available to everyone.

Ahh, yes. Your edit makes much more sense.

Is the market liquid enough to support that valuation?

Your argument might be stronger if it suggested a source of authority for Congress to pass such a law.

I'd argue that the rules are the same for the government and private citizens. Specifically in the law enforcement context, in Florida v. Riley, evidence obtained by observation from the air was admitted only because the police were op

I think he's talking about mapbox's custom tasking that's still kinda being worked on. You'll be able to request fresh imagery through mapbox, that will be tasked to skybox (among others) through their apis. [1] https:&

Close, but Planet says their Dove sats are limited to 3-5 meters, whereas Skybox's sats are submeter resolution. Planet seems to have more of a change detection mission over a quality mission. Skybox also does video, which I'm no

There's also the recent article about automatic and machine-learning based power and core management.[1], [2] If anyone here specializes in similar things, I would be curious to know if this Pegasus system runs on top of or underneath

Ahhh, I just came from the Vodaphone comments, and my context switching is slow. It's true that the legal side is onerous. We like to think that it prevents more trouble than it causes, but reasonable minds may differ. I still think m

It just shows I suppose, that despite the complexity or independence of oversight, it's hard to come up with a construct that incentivizes dissent in the national security context.

I've never really thought about warrant DD before. Makes me wonder about what to do with gag orders. My guess is inform the issuer and they will reissue to the new party, but it would be a stressful situation.

*Verizon wireless, not Verizon. And likely not one of the companies on Vodaphone's list since Cellco Partnership was operated by Verizon here in the US.

AFAIK GCHQ had a ministerial warrant for TEMPORA, but in the UK, unlike the US, incredibly broad warrants aren't uncommon. Edit: Yes, a broad warrant under section 8 of the RIPA Act, approved periodically by the Foreign Sec.[1] [1] ht

The main source of their power is every single court case, and more importantly, tracking which ones interact with each other and how, such as being overturned. This not only needs access to pacer, but a good algorithm and a huge staff to c

Like I said somewhere else, some courts have agreed with this analysis, and others differed. Obviously each case is fact intensive, but I imagine we'll have many more discussions as more cases come forward, a circuit split emerges, and

|Giving up keys about information otherwise already known to be on the computer is what's declared non-testimonial though. That was true of In Re Boucher and to a similar extent US v Kirschner, but in US v. Fricosu, the agents had not

Well he did retain counsel[1], and they did file things with the court. Whether they were competent is another matter, and whether he had standing to intervene is a third. But I think we can all agree that handing over the key in four-poin

I just want to point out that, with respect to Fifth Am. protection for passwords and keys, there are at least two District Court decisions suggesting that giving up keys is non-testimonial, and one Circuit decision suggesting it is, so the

The proper way to ask for time to mount a defense is a motion to the court. Behavior like this doesn't help anyone, least of all Levison.

Levison eventually complies by printing out key in 4 point font. I'm surprised he didn't mention that in his defense.

Our leaders ask for intelligence about the activities of foreign nations and foreign companies. The US naturally avoids such actions because we have, in many cases, the most to lose, and tu quoque leads to MAD.
