Thanks. I'm surprised by that, are there more details about the seizure? What it through Verisign or the registrar?

by tonfa 15y ago
Do you have any examples of that? As far as I know while .com/.net/.org are under US jurisdiction, it isn't the case of other TLDs managed by Verisign.

It's not because something is technically possible that it should (or can) be done. Why go through all the pain of setting analytics such that: it uses per analytics domain first party cookie, serves the javascript and the tracking gif on g

by tonfa 15y ago
But the cookie is per analytics domain, right? And not directly linked to other google cookies. So I think Analytics "sees" 80% of your browsing but it's multiple fragments, each going to different analytics domains. It's never seen as a si

I don't think so, as far as I understand analytics, there is nothing to link with other Google products since it only uses first party cookies. http://code.google.com/apis/analytics/docs/concepts/gaConcep... On a side note, the doubleclic

Data mining and ranking is neither debugging, nor DoS protection or abuse protection, so I don't see how it could be allowed. The FAQ makes it even more clear: > Is information about my queries to Google Public DNS shared with other Goo

But why would Google Public DNS but more affected by cache poisoning? They describe their protections in details at: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/security.html

I think their privacy policy disallows it: http://code.google.com/speed/public-dns/privacy.html > We don't correlate or combine your information from the temporary or permanent logs with any other data that Google might have about you

The DNS is probably resolving google.com to an IP that is further away network-wise. You could check to which IP it resolves depending on your DNS.

What do you mean by poisoned? For me it's the contrary, I switch to Google Public DNS whenever I'm using an ISP with "lying" DNS (returning a search page instead of NXDOMAIN).

Took me a while to figure out who the "we" is (OpenDNS). Might be worth stating it in your comment.

You are sure you can do remote DMA with eSATA? I've always thought Firewire was the only consumer product doing it.

I see, thanks. Might be worth stating it explicitly ("we won't modify the content unless you allow us to").

The real name suspension only affects the G+ profile (not gmail).

The real difference is the terminology: mercurial named branches mean something other than git branches (git branches are similar to mercurial bookmarks). Steve Losh's article explains that very well.
