Online Storage With a Twist
mssmss writes "For a long time, I have been looking for a way to securely store my files online without being tied to a single vendor — whose survival my storage depends on. It looks like Wuala has a way to do this, according to this story in the Economist. They use donated disk space of users to scatter your encrypted files over multiple computers."
Sounds great, but what happens when a massive worm outbreak occurs?
That's not a problem!
...
Oh, those worms
Help a man when he is in trouble and he will remember you when he is in trouble again.
So they use Bittorrent?
You know how one way to stop feeling the hurt of a stubbed toe is to get a bigger hurt?
Google for goatse.cx ....
Infuriate left and right
Massive Worm? Then you have lots of melange spice and your eyes turn blue.
Excuse me, but please get off my Pennisetum Clandestinum, eh!
I have a home business. So, for safety, I always keep one copy of my data at work and one at the office.
Oh wait.
God damnit. I hope nobody was watching inbound websites right then, or I'm gonna have some explaining to do.

You people do realize we need to start with the toaster if we really want to do something about the kiddy porn problem. After all, studies have shown that many child pornographers start their day with a piece of toast for breakfast. Why should corporations be providing child pornographers with equipment that helps them exploit children in this manner?!
I doubt whoever watches inbound websites will want to hear you explain your worms.

I've always wondered what RTFA stood for. F is for damn. Thanks.

Or, perhaps having this particular software on your computer could actually create the reasonable doubt you require to protect you?
Exactly. That's why I make it a policy to run an open wireless access point.
Simple, have a RAIH (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Houses) so you can just mirror your houses, so that if one happens to burn down then you'll have a backup copy.
I'm not sure how well a RAIH5 solution would work though but I'm sure there are plenty of people working on that though.
When I have a kid, I want to put him in one of those strollers for twins and then run around the mall looking frantic.

When someone mentions CP to me, it does not conjure up the same images in my mind as it appears to do in yours.... I'm not sure what that says about either of us but I wouldn't like to visit the sort of websites that you seem to frequent, or at least you appear to have 'heard' about.
Have a look at soylentnews.org for a different view
John McCain, is that you?
from the link:
Tapeworms can be found in both humans and people as well; though they are rarely found in humans
Sometimes, life itself is sarcasm...
Nope.

My bad =) Sorry. I've been up 36 hours so far.
Wow, you really do have to much to do!
