    are delivered via advertising networks. I learned this in a presentation about angular and nuclear web exploit kits. On the backside, some, if not all, ad networks sell advert space in a bidding format with multiple delivery granular controls.

  4. Nobody is asking the right questions... on WikiLeaks Published Rape Victims' Names, Credit Cards, Medical Data (arstechnica.com) · · Score: 0

    I believe the right question would be, why does these messages include so much personal information and why does the truth hurt so much?

    Comcast has a internal "Darling" division called VIPER (Video over IP Engineer & Research) already working on the possibilities of eliminating the set top box. They have known trouble has been brewing on this front for awhile now.

    I've handled this issue in the past for devices I just use for web surfing by not setting a default gateway on the network interface (via dhcp most of the time). Then I use socks proxying over ssh to a jump box on my network with firefox for my web browsing (Firefox is loaded with ABP and Ghostery).

  7. Nothing But FUD!!! on Hacks To Be Truly Paranoid About · · Score: 3, Insightful

    This stuff has been out there for more than two years for most of it except maybe the badusb. Go write a real news story and come back when you have something good...

    I'm in the planning phase of building my first uav (skywalker x-8) that will have autonomous flight capabilities. How does this differ from some of the other autonomous platforms that are already on the market like openpilot and the stuff 3d robotics offer?

  12. Re:You could roll your own. on SoHo NAS With Good Network Throughput? · · Score: 1

    I agree, out of the box solutions never work great and are not really dependable. My vote goes to FreeNAS OR a normal Debian installation. If network throughput is a issue, look into bonding the adapters going back to the switch.
