  1. Re:Future News, MPAA raids isoHunt on MPAA is Awarded $110 Million In TorrentSpy Case · · Score: 4, Informative

    That'd not be a good idea on their part. isoHunt is hosted in Toronto right now, and Gary's a Canadian citizen that'd battle it out in a Canadian court(possibly while relocating to another country). We also comply with DMCA takedown notices(even though we don't have to) - assuming they follow our copyright policy - and current legal proceedings in California aren't going as planned for them.

  5. Re:Ban bread? on UK to Ban Possession of Certain 'Violent' Pornography · · Score: 1

    I agree that a substantial number of rapists and molesters and whatnot probably do get off on "violent" porn. But so do quite a few very normal people who will never rape someone. Consensual kink is a gorgeous thing, an expression of incredible trust.
    Agreed. I've been active in the SLC(when I lived there) & PHX BDSM community for some time(4 years), and had my share of experiences. The trust in these relationships(with dynamics that vary as much as snowflakes) is incredible, and if you ever see a couple play together, the emotional energy in a scene is amazing. I happen to be a young(20) submissive, and one thing submissives know(because it's drilled into us by those that've been around and seen it happen) is that there are people out there that will try to use consentual kink as an excuse to abuse. There's a big difference inbetween abuse and consentual kink, and everyone's got a different opinion of what BDSM really is(Again, dynamics like snowflakes), but to make criminals out of those who are not is wrong.

    In the community there are others that will chastise others or outright call them names that border on libel, so often that we've got an acronym(actually we've probably got more than the military) to respond with - YKINMKBYKIO(Your kink is not my kink, but your kink is okay). Just because it isn't your bowl of soup doesn't make it wrong when it's a consentual act inbetween two people, and noones making you participate.


    Tollerance gos along way, especially when the acts you're getting upset about don't even effect you, and you are not witness to.

    Dude, this is DEFCON. No, I'm not making a Sparta joke(although you may be kicked into the pits of /dev/null), the whole point of DEFCON is the sharing of information publically, regardless of your hat. During the course of the convention, everyone is a greyhat, and afterwards everyone walks away a bit wiser. Pretty much everything that gets shown at DEFCON ends up posted on the net a few minutes after the presentation, or atleast after the convention. If it wasn't meant for public consumption it wouldn't be exhibited in public, and there's no way you're going to put a gag on your convention goers.

  12. Re:The issue is more than encrypting and signing on Wikileaks Sidesteps Publishing Public PGP Key · · Score: 1

    Here's the thing though, while PGP sort of lets the cat out of the bag that you're hiding something, the same thing happens over an SSL page on wikileaks IP, it doesn't give you any protection because instead of just searching for "PGP" in packet logs(if they're being kept), you're searching for 88.80.13.160 or "wikileaks"(which would come up in a DNS request). The only real solution is transmitting the materials over an anonymous link(such as wifi across town). If I was leaking something, I wouldn't even use tor from the same LAN(have to install software, leaks DNS requests sometimes).

    I just wanna point out that if you're looking for battery life, modern laptops are not where it's at. I've got an old dell latitude c610, 1.2ghz pentium 3, 1gb of pc133, ATI Radeon mobility m6. Using both bays with 66whr batteries, I get about 13 hours of battery life. I've never actually managed to run it down with the LCD closed.

    Unless your SAN is hitting solidstate disks to get it's data, or the data is in the diskcache, you're not going to notice the difference either way. Even then if the latency is more than 1 to 3ms for a LAN, you need to take a look at it.

    An exit node can MITM your cookies, posts, and other shit. Tor is not meant to be used 24/7 and it's not meant to be used to submit data(like form information) without encryption(HTTPS in this case) end to end. Exit nodes can see every packet going over the wire, even changing packets to include malware(to own you IE users), replace google ads, or just build a profile on you via the passive monitoring of the communications. If tor comes into widespread use, it's going to come into widespread abuse, and you're going to look like an asshat when grandma uses an exit node with dsniff running.
