Reminds me of Google Adwords and Adsense Bots banning random accounts. Better dont put all your eggs into one basket and dont develop for only one company you then will be dependent on. Especially if the company is as big as G or FB. They d

Actually, there are ways to prove a hidden volume indirectly. For example by the file names you opened or the last modification date of a truecrypt container file. There is an article about all the small things to watch on the Truecrypt web

Nice, didn't know I can watch those online. Unfortunately, only between 2am and 12am, because not the entire world is in the CET timezone. 8-/

I am doing it for a while now and you get quickly used to it. But your idea of a bookmarklet is interesting!

Lol. And if it does, the page will be updated to "Yes.", right?

I am using encFS for all data that gets backed up (on USB disc and in the cloud). Its easy to set up, and files get not stuffed into a "container" but they remain seperate files, with their file names and contents encrypted. If a file is ch

"... the security-illiterate UK government ..." They have a point there. More than once have those people at the UKgov simply "lost" notebooks or HDDs. Do they really store the complete census data on an unencrypted HDD? Even my cheap netbo

Similar things have happend on stock exchanges, with automated micro-second trade algorithms running wild. Now those exchanges have learned from past crashs and installed limits and market fluctuation. Bitcoin exchanges will learn and do si

Look at the right column, under "Most popular" is a tab "My Posts". His other most popular article is titled "The End of Facebook". Looks like "The End of ..." stuff sells well. And, I don't agree with his conclusion. Paper sheets and butte

I agree with you view on crisis reaction, that is not intervention and hunman relief. And the UN does that most of the time. That is why Blue Helmets are usually regarded as "useless" by many, because they don't fight. Unfortunately, that l

Thanks. I was wondering how many US gov departments were using the same initial.

Couldn't agree more. I am using Ubuntu for many years and would never ever switch back to Windows or OSX. Despite the many flaws, Ubuntu (on Gnome and now Unity) is still better. But I would really really love if Canonical would just do one

Your discussion goes into the completely wrong direction. And you are discussion something that happened 60 years ago. Not only the microchip, the international system too, has evolved a lot since then. A lot. >> that's not justice.

Its RESTful yes, but with the wrong item of data. To identify a logged in user and give the user access to their private account data, ONLY EVER use a unique and temporal random string. Nothing else. Ever. Storing that random string in the

Well, "a lot of people" don't like courts, either. But we still have them, because its the best system we have come up with, so far, to make the world a better and more livable/secure place for everybody. Maybe there is a better way, but hu

No, they have Security Council veto votes. This has nothing to do with the UNSC. However, it would only be useful if nations like the US and China could be made to participate, so negotiating this would not be easy. At the end however, it w

I have really problams believe that this could be true. Not even a first year student would be that stupid to expose any user id in the URL. And read from it without access right checking. For access to the related account data. How would t

No, mostly not. The software usually looks like Android or iOS but not with the same functionality. When using an "aPhone" or similar device for a minute, you quickly notice the difference. But there are different quality and price levels a

Interesting paper, but not a smart approach. Well, a very ...uhm American approach to the problem. Unilateral. Better would be to think about an internationally accepted (within the UN framework) mechanism to deal with these attacks. Define

If you really want to compare, than take Taiwan. An island just off the coast that China claims should be under its control and than is currently not. Same situation as Cuba a few decated ago, the US delivers all kinds of arms and military

To find out where an attack originated, it is probably better to ask who it benefits.

Agreed. However, we have learned to not abuse freedom for selfish profit, but to maintain and protect it. We learned that freedom is the freedom of speech for others. And to accept conflicting opinions peacefully. This is not a given everyw

Sorry, but you completely misunderstood (or wanted to misunderstand, and then attack me by implying I wanted to "install dictatorships" everywhere). Wow.

Where have I been "belligerent" in my initial (downvoted) post? Where did I say then I was "definitely right"?? I stated my view of the issue, especially that I find the view "freedom of speech == always good" rather simplistic. I also expl

If you are an US American, you may want to go to your nearest Indian reserve and ask them.
