You still get the benefit of eating the whole fruit though. None of the nutrients are removed, and you're less likely to eat 6 apples worth of puree than to drink 6 apples worth of apple juice. > slower/evenly absorbed Also, I&

Also, Windows XP was released on October 25, 2001. Broadband wasn't pervasive at that point, but it was definitely available to many people, and and extra 30 MB wouldn't have slowed many people down.

It's not even a prophylactic. Livestock grow larger, quicker on antibiotics. We're not entirely sure why, but it means more money, so it has to be good, right?

Presumably judicial oversight would take these factors into consideration. Lack of judicial oversight allows them to value their own goals over the rights of other people.

Ok. Someone posed a scenario where an attacker uses the User-Agent to differentiate between a victim vetting the URL via a regular browser and someone using curl/wget to pipe it to the shell. I suggested a simple solution to this spe

I'm not sure why you're taking about browser exploit kits when we're talking specifically about using curl or wget to pipe an HTTP payload into a shell.

You have to realize that "start warning the user two days before the expiration date" and "start warning the user on the expiration date, but give them a grace period of two days" is just an implementation detail, no?

You take the analogy too literal. The idea is that the actions of the attacker can be agreed to be negative, even if security is lax on the victim's side. You don't say "Welp, they were asking for it!" and call it a day.

I didn't imply that you should. My statement still stands. While "they shouldn't have done X" is not security, that doesn't mean that the statement is devoid of meaning, or that we should ignore the question of whet

To be fair, (as a Slack user) I'm not sure off-hand what Slack has that couldn't have been done on top of IRC. Almost everything could have been done with an IRC Server + Backend Services + Fancy Client model.
