Cryptome Log Subpoenaed

PaulBu writes "Stopped by on Cryptome tonight... It seems that their logs have been subpoenaed by Massachusetts Assistant Attorney General Chief, Corruption, Fruad (sic) & Computer Crime Division. Cryptome's answer was that "logs of Cryptome are deleted daily, or more often during heavy traffic, to protect the privacy of visitors to the site." (Good job!) See here"

    Oh, that's just fine then. Go along with the argument that we should give up all of our rights and privacy under the pretense that it makes us safer and we catch criminals.

    I bet you support the 'Fatherland' security act as well.

    Try thiking outside the box, instead of throwing your religon garbage at me. Anyways, what use would that quote be to someone who isn't christian. Keep your faith to yourself. I feel sorry that you can only think and act in a method describe in a book that's been translated so many times all of it's meaning is most likely lost..... ---and, not the "only" religon/belief on the planet.

    The issued a subpeona for records relevant to a specific investigation, asswipe. This isn't some X-Files conspiracy to send all logs to the gov't. It doesn't matter whether the investigation is for a murder, terrorism or smuggling -- it's still a proper and legal subpeona for records.

    Get a clue.

    We understand that privacy is a double edge sword, protecting both the innocent and guilty, just like due process and being prosumed innocent until proven guilty protects the innocent and guilty.

    You're not breaking any "Insightful" ground.

    Secondly, When will YOU and others learn that good and evil aren't a part of the fabric of reality? Good and Evil are cognitive phenomenon, meaning they primarily exist and derive from the nervous system. In other words, Good and Evil are merely phsychological reactions and projected interpretations of most likely, fairly nuetral events.

    Ying and Yang is an arbitrary rule made up some guy whacked out of his skull 5,000 years, when he noticed that good thoughts and actions are usually juxtaposed with evil thoughts and actions. In other words, Ying/Yang is mere speculative bullshit which would never make it past the most elementary scientific skepticism.

    In Real Science, it's not the skeptic's burden to disprove there's an invisible dragon in your bedroom. It's your burden to prove there's an invisible dragon.

    So, PROVE IT...
    Hell, I'll even give you full credit if you can even compell me with your ying/yang bullshit.

    Fine, you don't leave me a choice...

    Can't figure out how to rationalize your way through? Did I pop your little delusional bubble? Is that why you're resorting to your little kiddie games? Do you really think Slashdotters are so stupid that they can't see through your kiddie games?

    Honestly, I was expecting a little more of your speculative-meta-physics-eastern-philosophy-I-don' t-have-one-fucking-original-idea superstition ideas, recursively based on itself, wrapped in a paradox, digested and shit into a cardboard box.

    I didn't think you would resort to kiddie games, and I didn't think I would have to resort into goading you into a real debate. (Or in your case, flinging around a bunch of random assertions you picked up while watching TV, or reading James VanPraaaaag and Silvia Browne's collaborative guide to eastern philosophy.)

    Grow up and get in touch with your outer adult.
