How did police work ever get done before the digital age?
Before the digital age they could get wiretaps (hello encrypted messaging/calling), warrants for papers like bookie ledgers (hello digital encrypted files), or find boxes of copied/burned music/movies.
While the "solution" of backdoors to encryption is a non-started, it's wrong to claim there is no problem.
Can't all the free nations of the world demand that airlines list Taipei as "Taipei, Taiwan", or face repercussions which mirror whatever China does if they don't?
No, because they're free nations. China can only do this because it is not.
I've noticed that much of the world stopped laughing at the USA now that Trump is in the Oval Office.
I never noticed the world laughing at the US... at least not since WWII. And I only used that as a dividing line cause I stopped wanting to think about history. You would probably go back to the Civil War to find people laughing at the US.
I certainly don't see how I contradicted myself. My guess is that you have some secret assumption. But go on, feel free to take "vague accusation" to "actual argument" by explaining how I did.
I'm not sure why people think an "instant high traffic blog post" is necessarily a good thing. I mean, I guess if you blog already, it's nice to have more viewers. I just get all my bitching done pseudonymously on/.
I didn't respond apathetically. I dismissed your "No True Scotsman" argument before it started. Or, if that wasn't your intent, then I misread it. But the verbiage led me to think this point was dishonestly made and I treated it as such.
The point is, California is running surpluses, and seems to have adequately funded their government obligations. So, you know, that works as an example.
Google has 85,000 employees. For a phishing attack to work, it has to work on the dumbest employee.
Since this implies that there were successful phishing attacks more than a year ago, congratulations on being better at security than the person in Google who gives the least shits.
The complaints in 2018 about pensions from Republicans is that they are more lavish than dirty government workers deserve. So, I'm guessing they cannot attack the long term viability of the pension system.
The schools are adequately funded?
They seem to be. Since local taxes pay for schools too, I'd guess there are underfunded schools in the state. But the typical one seems fine.
Police and fire have all the resources they need?
No program ever has "all the resources it needs". Hell, the US military, the most overfunded thing ever, still doesn't have moon-bases with lasers to destroy ICBMs.
The landfills aren't indiscriminate. They build them up, and then people come in when it gets cost effective to recycle each of the still sorted materials. Note that sometimes its cost effective, and sometimes its not. And? Think of it as a recycling cache.
Also, changing behavior is the hardest thing. You want behavior changes to persist, not oscillate.
Not any more. Around a month ago China announced they were done receiving unsorted recycling from the US (and other places), Although, the ecological impact of shipping it was probably nil, as China still ships more to the US than vice-versa, and empty ships use almost as much fuel as full.
"craftsmen and artisans" who work with rare woods is not even a rounding error, either in jobs, exports or anything else. Esp. not in first-world countries.
The largest Black Market in New York State isn't drugs, but unpasteurized milk. You can drive across Upstate NY...
... and find 1/3 the population of the state. While it may be spread over a greater physical area, the actual population is pretty small. Hence, unless raw milk is twice as popular as drugs, it's still a smaller market. (Where we're just talking about units consumed. To say nothing of raw milk being cheap compared to, say, cocaine.)
Isn't one party consent for audio recordings? Aren't video recordings covered under different laws? And, while recording may be legal, isn't publication covered under a variety of different laws?
Most mass shootings end when the police arrive to stop the criminal. Then there are gun control laws, taking weapons away from people on parole, locking up violent criminals in buildings called "prisons", etc.
Yeah, a lot of policing is reactive (cause, you know, proactive policing looks a lot like tyranny.) What the is your point?
I agree that ICBMs are weapons of war. So are cyberweapons. And so is psychological manipulation. Anyone saying otherwise is an idiot.
The OP definitely said ICBMs weren't, although he could probably fix that through a clarification. But even then his point doesn't make sense, so I'm not going to give him the benefit of the doubt with the least stupid thing he could have said. Because he devoted less effort to his statement than you or I have in discussing it.
I'm not sure what you think are "your genuine wants". Sounds like the ingrained results of lots of "manipulation" to me. But yes, you can think yourself superior and above it all as you comparison shop to save 50 cents on the thing you've been convinced to buy. You're totally immune to advertising. Good job, you're awesome.
Don't you guys get tired of government trying to be your [dad]? Do you really need your government mom to protect you from the nasty [men with guns]?
Governments exist to do jobs for us. Sometimes, it involves preventing people from shooting you cause they dislike you. Other times it involves stopping other bad behaviors.
I have no idea why "true capitalism" would require auctioning off every departure time. Buying all departure times from now until forever is definitely something capitalism supports.
I'm not sure what you're talking about. DDG looks closer to Bind, Ask or Startpage than Google. And Google looks pretty similar to all of them (although distinctive from all of them a little bit.)
20 years ago there where no phones which contained "mother-loads of evidence". Yet criminals were caught.
While true, it's a lie to claim that encryption just keeps thing as they were 20 years ago. 20 years ago, written plans could be found and phone calls tapped. Now, those are likely to be encrypted.
Also, there's disparity of hardware. It's possible that Fuchsia will run on a single architecture, with well-defined specs. In that case, a lot of software and sources of bugs, can be avoided.

Mail, etc. was recorded. In the digital age, much more is being done via mail equivalents. And?
... and find 1/3 the population of the state. While it may be spread over a greater physical area, the actual population is pretty small.

It's dumb, but true in other states and other situations. It came up a lot with filming officer a few years ago.
IANAL, but I know that there are distinctions in at least some areas for some uses.
Why would one party consent make it legal??

By your description, cyberattacks, poison gas and even ICBMs aren't weapons of war.
Unlike that law, this one would at least be workable.
