    Lol, nope we'd just have to deal with all the garbage we left in orbit ourselves...

    I dunno, that one "big release" that turned out to be "Just kidding, buy our new book, LOL!" didn't really help Trump's campaign at all.

    I really don't know but I really don't think so. I think they're gleefully publishing ANYTHING they get their hands on, and it just so happens right now that Hillary's enemies are the only ones feeding them juicy leaks right now because so little of Trump's wrongdoing is even a secret.

    I didn't notice, but isn't Dyn that dynamic-dns provider? So you would only really notice it if you were using a domain pointed to a rotating ip address, right?

  5. I'm glad they pay you well, but we can and will hold them accountable for the rest of the company's existence.

  6. Its based on a prior agreement.

  7. Re:Oh brother on Prosecutors Say Contractor Stole 50 Terabytes of NSA Data (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    That's the whole problem here. It should have been apparent to everyone, a long time ago already now, that all of the NSA's fear-mongering self justifications are transparently obviously the excuses of the actual villains they claim to be protecting us from, and the NSA was only ever about creating excuses and situations for these types of breaches to take place. Anyone who thinks otherwise is hopelessly naive and probably unwittingly being victimized daily by identity harvesters.

    Support more ethical publishers and that won't be a problem.

  11. Basic network engineering. You obviously are in marketing.

  12. Really all you need is full redundancy. I doubt that costs 10 billion dollars unless the first network cost 10 billion dollars. Also remember that when you see numbers for network uptime listed in percentages, it's a completely fictional figure.

  13. Well, if true, some of them are probably reading this right now. Anybody care to elaborate guys? Also, did you end up managing to make any meaningful contributions to the OCP after that?

    As someone who has been writing JavaScript professionally for 20 years, I feel my opinion on this is valid.

    War as a spectator sport? And here I thought "Reality TV" couldn't get any worse after Survivor.

  18. I don't know what actually happened, but you should know (and this isn't common knowledge) that tribal law and authority supercedes US civil law on tribal land for members of the tribe or anyone involved in a dispute with them or about use of the land.

    Unlimited (TM) bandwidth for a limited amount of time! The demographics say the majority of you have poor enough vocabulary skills you'll actually fall for this! Hilarious, seriously. I'd be laughing about it if I wasn't crying about it. What do the FTC and FCC even do these days?

    Unfortunately, that won't stop them from using the compromised account to impersonate you online for the purposes of phishing/social engineering attacks on anyone who had that your email in their address book, or anyone whose email was in yours.

  25. Well, its not actually, but the stuff leaking out of there is probably worse.
