uMatrix can more closely approximate Noscript. I use it to disable all cookies, scripts, and media unless explicitly allowed.

Can you point to a specific case where a defendant was coerced into decrypting some data? As far as I understand it, the 5th Amendment protects a citizen from such coercion. If you have a physical device such as a Yubikey that unlocks your

The problem with all vim-style extensions is that they have been limited in potential functionality. For instance they won't work in any builtin pages such as about: pages or the new tab page or https://add-ons.mozilla.com .

This point is irksome. How hard would it be to provide a switch to disable mandatory signing? Something similar to the unknown sources option in Android. To all those claiming that Mozilla doesn't owe this to their users, you are techn

Unfortunately, we can't even entirely trust our phones then either. You can turn on airplane mode in the OS, but it could still choose to reactivate the radio for short bursts without you knowing. Or the the radio could be set to phone

Hmm, I haven't checked the code yet, but Firefox 37 on Arch with NoScript crashed for me on a reload. I just got the noscript detection the first time.

Per the private photo sharing, I don't think that a poor track record is a great excuse for including another potential security issue. At the very least, there should be an option to disable the preview icons. I also wish they had include

I think that has to be the most amazing customer service interaction I have ever seen. I hope EA's payment processor hits them hard over all those charge backs.

I currently deliver pizza for a living. There have been times in my past when I ate a dollar menu burger from McDonald's once every couple of days. I am well aware of what poverty is. That's irrelevant though. Is morality relative to your c

I've never bought the excuse about "needing to pay the bills". If you are wiling to compromise your convictions for money, how strong are those convictions in the first place. It reminds me of a friend of mine whose wife works for the TSA a

I fail to see the need for up-to-date stats on who has died and where. It fills the exact same need for an dopamine rush that traditional news does. "Compellingness" is just another way of saying it satisfies the mind's desire for more litt

Instrument failure isn't always detected by the crew. In the case of Air France 447 in 2009, even the instruments that were working correctly weren't properly understood. The black box transcript from AF 447 is quite an interesting read: h

Via the social contract, by infringing on the rights of another, one volunteers to temporarily suspend the right to freedom. A right cannot be taken away or lost as they are inherent to the human condition.

The part that bothers me about the first case linked is that the officers were submitted to an internal investigation. They should have been arrested as soon as the video evidence came to light. There is far too little willingless to arrest

As someone who struggles for rent and basic medical care, it really grinds my gears listening to someone's victim mentality. I struggle right now because of my poor decisions. I am improving my lot in life through consistently good choices.

I don't attribute my personal growth to drugs. I attribute it to years of self-examination and introspection. It is hard work and the difficult acceptance of my flaws. Drugs did however provide the occasional signposts to help me along the
