P.S.=> I seriously must have dusted JC (in his mind @ least) for his BAD spelling error & it "got his goat"...

I.E.-> Catching what he claimed to do as a job, for YEARS he left "PENETRATION" (correct) spelled as "PENTRATION" (incorrect) on his resume on LinkedIn & I pointed it out as he & his friends trolled me as usual (webmistressrachel, gmhowell, & crew (probably ALL JC no doubt using alterate emails or TOR to do it as a possible - I've caught "them & theirs" doing it before, ala Barbara, not Barbie = TomHudson (same person))).

So THAT is what has gotten his goat in a technical debate & his "geek angst" could only come up with *trying* to "impersonate me" in every news thread on /. for the month of March 2013 so far!

(Just to attempt to 'discredit me' as a spammer here obviously)

Doing so, by posting that "$10,000 challenge" &/or reposts of my old posts on hosts file value to end users into EVERY SINGLE NEWS ARTICLE POSTED on /. ...

It's all I can think of that *might* cause such a mentally troubled 'reaction' like the Jeremiah Cornelius is doing & there's NO QUESTION he's the one doing this spamming of nearly every posted article masquerading as myself...!

I am very surprised and disappointed that you respond to any of this.

You tried to downmod that to "hide it" earlier there, along with 100's of "forums slide" attempts via ac posts (like the 100's you did directed my way but you got caught in posting your registered username to do it instead of by ac submits http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3581857&cid=43276741 ). No hiding it now, is there?

Disprove it Jeremiah Cornelius: You can't & you KNOW it (or you would have by now, unfortunately, that is NOT possible with valid technical data).

Since you attempted to "impersonate me" & shit on me in 100's of posts attempting to do that?

Then, You can BANK ON IT I will keep tossing this your way, inviting your dull-witted technically incompetent ass to disprove it. You can't and I know it, you know it, and so will anyone else reading your b.s. posts (especially your +5 rated ones you mod yourself up with using sockpuppets and we all know you do that too). Payback, is a bitch, and especially when it shows just how techincally incompetent you are, troll.

Hairyfeet did the rest on your AC post here http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3717059&cid=43631887 and he doesn't even use hosts, and prefers dns. So much for your ac trolling fool. Your problem, idiot? You think people are stupid and don't see thru your crap. Guess again, see Hairyfeet's post above.

Going to downmod this to hide it as usual, or are you going to flood it with anonymous coward replies like the troll you are to forums 'slide' it?

P.S.=> There is NO WAY you worked at Microsoft as you claim, no way, at least not in a true technical capacity since I can clearly easily outsmart & outthink you on "all of your 'objections'" so easily... however, then again? It's why you were terminated at Microsoft. You don't cut it, and it's the why of why you're nothing but a powerpoint pusher nowadays (allegedly)... apk

Wonder what Mr. McAfee will think by Anonymous Coward · 2013-05-06 02:43 · Score: -1

JC knows he blew it's why + here too http://slashdot.org/comments.pl?sid=3707913&cid=43640993 hence Jeremiah Cornelius' weak little reply that can't disprove what he was challenged against. I wonder what Mr. McAfee thinks of this CISSP (allegedly) Information Security Architect Jeremiah Cornelius running like a scared bitch troll he is now?

By accepting a signing key, you're signing up for their whitelist.

Which brings back the dancing bunnies problem. The user sees "Add our PPA to see dancing bunnies", the user gets the home PC's administrator to do so, and the system is compromised. Or the user is a software developer, but he's tired of having to retype his code signing key's passphrase every single time he rebuilds his project, so he takes the passphrase off the key. Now any malware can sign itself as the user.
