That's a far cry from the "100 approved names" you claimed, and not uncommon in Europe.

One issue is that the older version of the graph API permitted third party apps to access your full friends list and data your friends had shared. So I post photos and statuses, and those aren't just visible to my friends but also to t

All this lawyering over the definition of 'breach' is failing to see the forest for the trees. It is a breach of trust, even if not a breach of technical security controls.

That would be funny, but I think if you actually tried to do it, you would very quickly run into overheads which make it unviable for most individuals. A lot of tax havens outsource the cost of compliance by requiring all financials to be

This is like the employer I used to work with who said "well google has been hacked so therefore us storing passwords in plaintext is okay". Maybe I'm toast if the NSA takes an interest, but there are an awful lot of bad act

Attackers come in all shapes and sizes. If the NSA comes after you, you’re toast, but there’s a lot of high level organized crime out there as well.

If a well-resourced attacker was targeting me specifically, it wouldn't be too difficult for them to find out about my short-to-medium term travel plans. A bit of social engineering with the airlines could tell them exactly which flig

in what sense is it pointless? If the attacker can’t log into the system, and can’t modify the boot process without invalidating the TPM, then so long as the TPM is reasonably tamper proof it’s perfectly sufficient for the 99% use case for

It's probably also partially an economies of scale thing. Amazon used to sell a 10 inch version of the Kindle but discontinued it due to poor sales.

Nice. now can we please have a way of reporting phishing/malware hosted on Microsoft services (Onedrive, hosted Sharepoint, Azure, etc)? I have reported a few of these to Microsoft's CERT team and they just seem to get ignored.

Thanks for sharing this - this is fiendishly clever. Even with all the investment in infosec, we're still woefully unprepared to deal with this type of attack. We need to start thinking about new approaches to protect users.

Maybe there's some sort of middle ground here. Perhaps copyright extensions should be able to be applied for on a per-work basis, and to succeed, you have to demonstrate that you're still profiting from the work. Let Disney have

At the ethernet layer sure, but have fun trying to run spanning tree on a mixed Cisco/Juniper/Brocade network. Switch vendors are also notorious for locking out SFP modules from other manufacturers for no reason, which is particul

This probably isn't a popular view for the HN crowd but at this point I'm convinced that for 90% of users, browser extensions are an anti-feature doing way more harm than good.

If renewal is automatic, there's also little reason not to make the expiry date really short.

I wonder if the increased power capacity is implemented by the device and power supply negotiating a higher voltage. 100w at 5 volts would be 20 amps, which seems a bit high.

My C's a little rusty, but isn't the exact integer returned by the comparison undefined? Isn't is just defined as just zero or non-zero? Therefore i would argue this is just as risky as the original solution, and that it&#x2
