Try to post some grammatically incoherent comment and include the words "penis", "enlargement", and "pills". Let us know how it went. This is probably just an anti-spam measure. There are many anti-china bots o

Like you I also come from a third-world country and this sort of thing is also the advice there. Now I live in a much better country and I no longer have to fear the police. Quite a change. There is no way why this has to be the way it is.

The proper way of interpreting the sentence about "don't roll your own crypto" is that it actually means "don't roll out your own crypto until it has been peer reviewed by many experts". At which point it kind

Well, as good a time as any to remember an old exploit. Back in the old days, to put the modem back in command mode, you had to send it +++ and wait one second without sending anything. Hayes, a modem manufacturer, owned a patent on this &q

Your comment is at the top. Please don't complain about downvoting. "China and Chinese companies have no real culture of user centric privacy." Citation needed. That's one billion individuals you are talking about.

(c) "charged with" and "found guilty of" are vastly different things To be fair this is the most important comment in this thread. Greenwald was charged by a prosecutor who belongs to the same organization whose misbehav

He exposed evidence of criminal behavior by a judge that was trying to conceal his activities which are subject to public scrutiny via using his personal phone. What a judge does in the course of his work is not his own personal property.

Technical debt: the horrible metaphor meant to explain a project to non-technical people but that only technical people adopted. And then everybody needs a better metaphor to explain the bad metaphor to non-technical people.

"App stores" were run by telcos back then. Usually a storefront selling J2ME apps via WAP and charging money to your phone bill. To be fair the most popular content was ringtones (of the MIDI type). I think the BREW ecosystem had
