Yeah right. And they were living in a jungle with absolutely 0 news for last 10 years. This period is gone, even before "Eschelon" was known fact, after Snowden you really must be ignorant to avoid this news. And if you are target

This backdooring of communication is a joke. Everyone wanting to hide something can pgp/gpg encrypt a message and paste it into whatever channel, from fb to irc, from email to counterstrike chat. This whole thing about protecting &quot

Yes, I had the same thoughts, then I figured out that vast number of techies are earning from the fishy practices we should protest against. And barely anyone is prepared to protest against something that pays for his <insert your poison

After 6-7 years of not using google, I can vouch for this. There is just no reason to use it (I am writting this on HN, you are not the case of "just another user" by just beeing here). Their search has become mediocre due to all

Interesting how they do it. Injecting js to client pages on "great wall" to land on browsers where it is calling the targeted web site.

Oh, Norton Utilities.. Disk Editor... I am still pissed off on Symantec that they destroyed this beautifull product. Anecdote: at the end of primary school (~16 years old or something) we had a teacher who has took time at the end of schoo

I know a guy, who was fighting hard with unicode consortium for adding two characters with meaning "begining of blob, end of blob". Imagine how simpler the coding would be without the need to escape anything. Unfortunately he didn

Exactly this. :) I am quite familiar with c++ (no expirience i D) but for fast little projects go is great, I wouldnt mind having more control over GC.
