The Clipper Chip[1] immediately comes to mind as the most publicized case of the NSA wanting a backdoor in consumer products. There are also recent stories of the US Government wanting similar encryption disabling mechanisms in other techno

To be honest, I'd rather have you, Jacques, be the recipient of my personal information than some random guy with the clear intent of selling that information. I don't even know you! At the same time, I'm a pretty skeptical guy, and any dom

I agree, but I was referring to the organized Warez Scene[1], not private bittorrent trackers which generally favor user-ripped content over "Scene" content. V0 is the most popular for private users, but the groups still stick to V2. [1] h

It doesn't seem off topic to me. People post their projects or other people's projects they feel excited about on HN to gain publicity and receive criticism. While the original intent is about the actual application, Reeder, everyone needs

I've used RootBSD, which primarily deploys FreeBSD guests, but they do offer other choices, including OpenBSD 4.8 [1]. I also have no benefit from advertising this provider. [1] http://www.rootbsd.net/blog/2010/openbsd-4-8/
