True you can buy a few PCs with Linux on them from a handful of little online shops that sell the computers for around 2.5x the normal retail price. Or you can build them from parts*
*Except for some shops that won't sell a CPU+mobo+RAM combo unless you buy a Windows license as well.
Who modded up this bullshit? It's just good sense to minimize legal risk by avoiding the use of legally risky software. Chances are he had legit licenses and now MS has lost those customers thanks to the BSA.
It's not biodegradable ink, that crap that fades is thermal paper. Why it fades, I don't know, but it sure does (even without sun exposure - get a thermal printed bill and put it in a closed box, and check back in 2 years).
When the sleep-substitute drugs that have been in testing over the last decade hit the shelves, that's when shit will really hit the fan. The market will readjust to the availability of labor and you'll have to work 18 hours a day to make the same pay.
You joke but I honestly wouldn't be surprised if one of the secret metrics they use is "not Muslim." We'll have to wait to hear it from Wikileaks in the next US government security lapse...
I thought VIPR sounded more like a name for video game bad guys (or maybe kid's cartoon bad guys, e.g. COBRA). An Orwellian name would be something more like "the freedom guardians"
True. There's no cert authority or hardcoded key (would be worthless) for torrents, so they can be MITMed, and encryption doesn't do anything about swarm monitoring. What's needed is torrents over darknets, such as i2p which is ideal for this purpose.
Haha the culture-stealing oligarchs must love you. You screw yourself to give them more money that they'll use to steal more culture and buy more laws to screw you with. You can't even get a new tire for your car while they enjoy cocaine and hookers on their yachts and sue grannies into oblivion for more money. Then with the life you can barely afford to sustain, you defend them. Sucker.
GP is wrong if the key comes from a CA (assuming the CA isn't leaking info). Only self-signed SSL connections can be MITM'ed - the encryption used in the transfer of the torrent content itself works like this, but not tracker sites.
Magnet links make no difference to downloaders, they only make tracker sites one more step removed from the illegal material and reduce their hosting costs - the entire set of magnet links for TPB is now available as a 90MB file.
Turning of PEX or DHT probably won't make any difference. A peer blocker would be a better bet. Torrents can be encrypted, but since they're using self-signed keys the negotiation process can be MITM'ed and often is, and this doesn't hide you from the studios at all - they track you by downloading the file like anybody else and then monitoring IPs in the swarm as they download and seed, only a VPN can hide you.
Torrents over i2p are untraceable and unstoppable, the only problem right now is a lack of popularity.

And of course, whatever you use now will be breakable in the future, if anyone cares to save your messages until computing catches up.
Which is the whole point of this new facility according to TFA.

Flash for Linux is free. What problems could this cause?

As many as you can. I get the feeling from TFA that they can at least crack AES-128.
Keeps that nasty smell off your hands. You can use chopsticks too XD
fearsome but ultimately powerless boogeyman
Sounds like he has the power to boogey down! (and do whatever he can)

Or synthetic sapphire knives, much stronger from what I understand.
I'd be surprised if that many go through the TSA screening process. It seems to be less than 1 per year over the last few years.

He doesn't believe in civil liberties either.
A few of us do, but most of us are too busy watching reality TV.

Nothing wrong with public trackers, DHT and peer exchange over a darknet, like torrents over I2P.
Aw yeah that fly gettin' some B-)
Hit that juicy abdomen, fly man! :D
Pretty obscure group, you probably haven't heard of them. *flips scarf*
So it's like Wellspring?
Or less?
Ouch, nobody get caught with a THC molecule...
