Are you not aware of black budgets? Neither the military nor intelligence agencies publicly announce their total budgets. You can call me silly...
Look, at this point you're safer if you simply assume the NSA, GCHQ etc owns TOR nodes, is hooked into every internet pipeline, has special...
My guess is he got chased off. He was here somewhat recently, even after taking a lot of heat from people, but unless he wants to be drowned in...
As much as I'm against all this scanning emails for content crap, this guy had it coming. I don't just mean he was a bad guy and needed some "time...
Oh they understand it. For governments, it's a way for their people to find out things that governments aren't all that thrilled about people...
We have a huge mess. I can easily see this new ruling leading the way for every country to do it, although many already have. What will be...
Oh now this is just too cute :argh: You have to give them credit for trying.
Whatever laws they try to enforce, it won't work. Ask the RIAA and MPAA how they are doing, they've given up to the point that ISPs have resorted...
Doubtful they'll do anything. Unfortunately the U.S is in the right on this one..so long as those emails belong to U.S users. All MS could really...
So, Murray lied/has given up then I assume. If they had the interest or ability to get out v5, they wouldn't be "working" on a version that is...
I hope for his sake he's just been busy working on AM. Obviously I hope nothing is wrong with him or his family. But, if he has decided to bail or...
The EFF isn't all that great either. I've questioned their suggestions and work more than once. But, as you said, all the public can do for now is...
I'm sure they are, and the people more likely to enter this "contest" are the type that will make back that entrance fee very quickly through...
And people will read that, and flock to Spideroak thinking nothing can happen only later finding out that they were wrong. The NSA is going to go...
It's not next, it's the current one and has been one for years now. The problem is that it's a lopsided battle for the foreseeable future. No...
I said it in another thread as well, but that line of thinking is as dead as security by obscurity. Global surveillance isn't about interesting...
I don't know, I'm kinda entertained. How often do you see one person keep a thread going for a year all by their lonesome, regarding a topic no...
Whether you meant it or not, sadly a lot of people do believe it and that doesn't really help matters. @NoOne, again it isn't solely because TLAs...
Not really, there is just a "Wild West" way of operating them that went unnoticed until Snowden popped up. They are very necessary to the overall...
I doubt they'll remove the toolbar at this point, but maybe. There is definitely something not right with Chrome and the URL scanner though. I'm...
I'm sure the copyright police would tell you it's illegal, but it's nothing they are going to actually try to enforce. They're too busy making...
True, it's all an invisible process that happens without interfering with their daily work and activities. It also starts with innocent data such...
You're making the same mistake a lot of the public is still making. You think you're safe as long as you're not being criminal. Facebook doesn't...
I don't know about anyone else, but I've yet to find a program that deals well with registry entries. CCleaner will tell you it removed old...
It wouldn't do a lot against the NSA unless Germany is willing to go all the way and revert back to rotary phones, filing cabinets, the works. The...
