How would they discover that the malware phones home to FBI agents? You think the malware just sends all its data to fbi.gov? Any foreigners who are in the know would most likely be cooperating law enforcement who aren't going to run around and tell every crook on the net.
The FBI malware is invisible until it causes your wipe to fail (pay particular attention to wiping the recycle bin, even if there's nothing in it). In that case, the best solution for a failed wipe is to format and then wipe the entire drive.
As others have wisely noted, calling the FBI would be a bad idea. Those bust-hungry thugs would interrogate you and then twist your words into a confession of guilt before making a media circus of the whole thing. You'd think they'd be busy with real crime.
There are trojans released and monitored on Limewire by the FBI. They are designed to ensnare people who search for certain keywords in the hopes that they will have downloaded other "objectionable content", which is why LEO usually waits for the marks to collect more "evidence" to be used against themselves. The trojan is designed to catch people who would download objectionable content and then immediately delete it, as TFA indicates.
The trojans cannot be deleted. They cannot be seen, even if the user has full administrative access including the ability to see and modify hidden and system files. The trojans may be found accidentally when a wipe on a hitherto unknown file fails. The trojans run on Windows.
tl;dr - Don't run Windows if you need horrific pornography to get your rocks off. And no, the above did not happen to me.
The eyeballs and the testicles are the first casualties of excessive RF exposure. There are many folk tales of military personnel defeating the waveguide safety interlocks to cook bags of popcorn and sterilize themselves for the weekend.
His family has strong Irish roots that trace back to County Galway and County Limerick...
King graduated from St. Francis College in Brooklyn in 1965 and went on to get his Juris Doctorate from the University of Notre Dame Law School in 1968...
He was branded by a judge in a Northern Ireland court "an obvious collaborator with the IRA". He became involved with NORAID, an organization that the British, Irish and US governments accuse of financing IRA terrorist activities and providing them with weapons. He was banned from appearing on British TV for his pro IRA views and refusing to condemn IRA terrorism in the UK.
In 2000, he called then-presidential candidate George W. Bush a tool of "anti-Catholic bigoted forces."
King worked extensively with the administration and supported its decision to invade Iraq.
In a September 2007 interview with the website Politico.com, King said that "There are too many mosques in this country... There are too many people sympathetic to radical Islam."
There are a lot more boozed-up hicks and Micks in America who are implicitly sympathetic to radical Christianity (including Catholicism, the biggest business on the planet), and this asshole is no exception. They should shove their crucifixes and rosaries and hypocritical dark-age censorship up their priest-penetrated asses.
Slashdot is like episode of the twilight zone where a professional troll dies and goes to "karma heaven". The troll is modded up to +5 no matter what he posts.
Soon, however, the troll becomes thoroughly bored by always having his whims satisfied and predictably winning at anything he attempts. He tells the mods "Nigger. Now may I go back to karma hell at least once?" The mods retort, "What gave you the idea that you were in karma heaven? This is karma hell!"
The article tries to make guilds sound "cool" by comparing them to violent street gangs, even though gangs and guilds are just cases of infantile "nyah-nyah, we're cooler than you are" schoolyard children.
Only the gangs drink malt liquor and go on raids in real life.
They flip on a dime. True story: saw an accident between a Honda Del Sol and a Ford Expedition* at an intersection. The Del Sol was dented but able to drive away from the scene while the Expedition was flipped, turned upside down with the passenger-side roof smashed-in. The expedition apparently "jumped" the Del Sol on one side like a ramp and flipped right over.
* The laws of physics work on more than 2 dimensions. From this:
People believe that the bigger their vehicle, the safer they are. That perception has propelled the SUV industry into one of the fastest growing car markets in the United States. Unfortunately, that perception is not correct. SUV's, have a disturbing tendency to roll over which results in more serious accidents. Just about every make and model of SUV's have this problem...
What causes SUVS to flip and rollover? SUVs have a higher center of gravity because they are taller, have higher ground clearance and a narrower distance between their wheels. This higher center of gravity makes it easier for SUVs to tip over. In fact, the heavier the vehicle, which SUVs tend to be, the more likely the vehicle will tip over.
Oh, come on. Women don't know how to drive stick, much less drive at all. They'd never get licensed if it weren't for their tits.
Nothing is more frightening than a soccer-mom behind the wheel of an Escalade or Expedition with a cell phone in one hand, Starbucks grande in the other, steering with her knees while her frightened kids cling to their back seats.
Some of my acquaintances are well-read, well-dressed, well-spoken people, the sort who really seem to have it all together...
Many of those people did everything right, stayed out of trouble, never questioned authority, and are generally conscientious but lacking in personality and interesting life experience.
Shit, at least my friends wait until they're really drunk before they break out the Toby Keith.
I'm an AT&T user (in before NSA wiretapping) and one of the most appalling aspects of their data plans is that tethering with a 5GB limit is an additional 60 bucks a month. It costs the same price per month for them to flip a magic switch on your existing phone as it does for them to give you an extra 3g adapter!
Years ago I had a phone and a 3G adapter but the 3g speeds sucked and the coverage was spotty even though I was in a major metropolitan area. It's probably worse now that so many iPhones are saturating their network.
So they want to spend the money and effort to roll this out while people are pissing and shitting on the streets in holes, and showering with buckets?!
The more false-positives they measure, the more they can make the case for increasingly intrusive DPI which will inevitably include personally identifying users and meddling with their traffic if not disconnecting them.
It's nice to see the military industrial complex involved in the music industry's problem.
Though I think the Asperger's defense is simply the latest fad for justifying bratty sociopathic behavior which was enabled and tolerated, I firmly believe that it is wrong to extradite him. He was looking for UFO's, for fuck's sake, and I don't see why the Brits couldn't just fine him up the wazoo and make him work for free while on house-arrest. They guy's a nut, but he's not dangerous.
And to say that if he "sold the information then lives could have been lost" is alarmist bullshit. Even military with mandatory OPSEC briefings and security clearances wouldn't believe that garbage (now, if we were at full-scale war with China or Russia then it'd be a different story altogether -- and c'mon, even the ACTA is being obscured on the grounds of "national security"). It's clear that they guy never intended to give our sekrits to terr'rists. The pentagon's just pissy that some nutcase exposed a goatse-esque security hole and now we want to make an example of him. Our government is behaving like a bunch of vengeful, steroid-addled, UFC-watching goons. Extradition is overkill in this particular case.
The aspie and the American government are in a cute little contest to see who can out-douche the other. I'm going to laugh if the aspie fights this and wins it.

It is an at-will state.

That's called foresight, man.

Not many if its an automatic, that's why stick-shift drivers are more intelligent.

You could also argue that the pirates' jenkem grenades violate Geneva conventions rules for use of biological weapons.
In fact, there is a corporation in China which id dedicated to the development of biological weapons for use in proxy wars against Western interests.
It's because you're a bunch of catty, uppity girlie-men who believe all of your problems are solved with Greco-Roman wrestling and pretty design.
I feel sorry for the guy who has to animate the rape. Would he be laughing or crying?
As long as you only smoke cocks, per Apple's policy.

Nucular power ain't safe if there're terr'ists that gonna blow it skyhigh or steal fuel to make a dirty bomb.
If it weren't for the U.S. authorities clever detective work we'd a had another 9/11 on our hands.
