Mozilla SSL Policy Considered Bad For the Web
Chandon Seldon writes "The issue of digital certificates for SSL and the policies surrounding them comes up repeatedly. I've written an article criticizing the behavior in Firefox 3, which includes a serious comparison of the current Mozilla policy — restricting encrypted HTTP to paying customers — to a violation of net neutrality."
Except that the entire issue somehow reminds me of Moby Dick
I second post your complaint.
one needs only to pay attention, which is cost effective, & could lead to our survival. see you there? the lights are coming up all over now. conspiracy theorists are being vindicated. some might choose a tin umbrella to go with their hats. the fairytail is winding down now. let your conscience be yOUR guide. you can be more helpful than you might have imagined. there are still some choices. if they do not suit you, consider the likely results of continuing to follow the corepirate nazi hypenosys story LIEn, whereas anything of relevance is replaced almost instantly with pr ?firm? scriptdead mindphuking propaganda or 'celebrity' trivia 'foam'. meanwhile; don't forget to get a little more oxygen on yOUR brain, & look up in the sky from time to time, starting early in the day. there's lots going on up there.

is it time to get real yet? A LOT of energy is being squandered in attempts to keep US in the dark. in the end (give or take a few 1000 years), the creators will prevail (world without end, etc...), as it has always been. the process of gaining yOUR release from the current hostage situation may not be what you might think it is. butt of course, most of US don't know, or care what a precarious/fatal situation we're in. for example; the insidious attempts by the felonious corepirate nazi execrable to block the suns' light, interfering with a requirement (sunlight) for us to stay healthy/alive. it's likely not good for yOUR health/memories 'else they'd be bragging about it? we're intending for the whoreabully deceptive (they'll do ANYTHING for a bit more monIE/power) felons to give up/fail even further, in attempting to control the 'weather', as well as a # of other things/events.

dictator style micro management has never worked (for very long). it's an illness. tie that with life0cidal aggression & softwar gangster style bullying, & what do we have? a greed/fear/ego based recipe for disaster. meanwhile, you can help to stop the bleeding (loss of life & limb);

the bleeding must be stopped before any healing can begin. jailing a couple of corepirate nazi hired goons would send a clear message to the rest of the world from US. any truthful look at the 'scorecard' would reveal that we are a society in decline/deep doo-doo, despite all of the scriptdead pr ?firm? generated drum beating & flag waving propaganda that we are constantly bombarded with. is it time to get real yet? please consider carefully ALL of yOUR other 'options'. the creators will prevail. as it has always been.
corepirate nazi execrable costs outweigh benefits
(Score:-)mynuts won, the king is a fink)
by ourselves on everyday 24/7
as there are no benefits, just more&more death/debt & disruption. fortunately there's an 'army' of light bringers, coming yOUR way. the little ones/innocents must/will be protected. after the big flash, ALL of yOUR imaginary 'borders' may blur a bit? for each of the creators' inno
Driving is a privilege not a right. Unless you have the money to cover any damages you may cause, it is absolutely necessary to have insurance. The cost of barebones liability coverage is not that high assuming you have a relatively clean record and if not, you probably shouldn't be driving. It seems that today the idea of personal responsibility is falling out of favor.
Actually you're both correct and incorrect. Most people are not driving, they're traveling. And that activity is codified in common law as a right, movement by people by any means. Those who make money from either hauling freight or passengers are driving, and that is the legal definition of transportation as noted in "Black's Law Dictionary".
If you desire further examples, check out your state's (I assume you are in the US since your first statement is a commonly stated incorrect mantra) transportation statues/codes/laws and use a legal dictionary for any term not explicitly defined in such.
I responding to your post because that outright lie needs to be squelched.
Problems with FF 3 and online banking and my websites plesk control panel made me switch back to safari as default browser.
Just like the regulations for 'safe-driving': They should just let people do whatever they wish. If you can talk on your cellphone while driving OK, if you create an accident you should suffer the consequences and that's all (the problem is with the people that escape punishment because of the fucked up judicial system).
Wow. Just wow. Do you really not see the huge gaping flaw in that argument?? There's a reason why operating a motor vehicle on a public thoroughfare has to be considered a privilege, not a right. So let's say I'm talking on my cellphone while driving. Let's also say that I'm not a rich guy. In this little story, I have about $20 in my pocket, none in my bank account, no assets to speak of, and I live from paycheck to paycheck. And since I'm in these circumstances, my car is also not exactly in top shape. So I'm driving along talking on my cellphone, don't see the red light, and slam into the passenger side of your car as you're driving through the intersection in front of me. Bam, your wife/husband/significant other just died, you just landed in the hospital for 3 months, and all that happens to me is I get sent to jail for at most a few years. Or more likely, I died in the accident as well and you don't even get that much. Worst part is, I also didn't have insurance. My policy lapsed because I couldn't afford it.
When you're operating equipment that has a huge potential to be fatal to other persons, it absolutely has to be a privilege instead of a right. Everyone has the right to use the public road, no one has the right to operate a death machine on it.
Or perhaps I should also exercise my right to bear arms and start firing high-powered rifle shots randomly around the city? I'm sure there's no chance at all I'll ever hit someone.
