People are motivated by things other than money. Cred in the community is a valuable motivator. Look at the FOSS movement and academia (to a lesser degree), for examples.
Yes that's right. I just called the GNU project pedophiles.
That said, once you download it accidentally, the creator won't know if you deleted it or not, even if he knows you downloaded it at all.
Many modern file-systems are "journaled" meaning that when you overwrite a file it isn't necessarily written back to the same place. Thus, to be sure a file is really gone you'd have to nuke all data on the drive. A slightly less paranoid approach would be to delete the files you don't want (including emptying recycle bin), then fill your hard disk with files full of 0's (or anything really), then delete those.
1) Expensive magnetic probing -- they won't bother for just CP most likely, certainly not the incidental 2) Bad blocks sectors -- This could get the data back if you're unlucky, but I wouldn't worry too much about it. 3) Off sector writes -- I don't know if this actually works or not but I should list it.
Of course you have to physically destroy it to be sure, but if you write 0's over the entire hard drive there are very few people with the knowledge and tools to recover the data. You've already ruled out all those data recovery outfits, at that point it's the big-time spooks and they have bigger fish to fry.
What bugs me is the FBI just showing up and demanding to search my computer...I encrypt at root and I'm not crazy about giving up my data and keys, even if everything I have is legal to the best of my knowledge, they can always get you for/something/.
Agreed. But consider that a politician doesn't get elected by championing the rights of "child molesters". Demonize, dehumanize, standardize (lump child rapists and drunk public urinators and statutory rapists together), persecute, eradicate.
Corn biofuel is extremely inefficient, and, depending on where you get your numbers energy negative. But there are other crops with far higher potential efficiencies. Biofuel is definitely part of the solution, but not if we keep letting fucking politicians and their corn subsidies determine science.
I'm pretty sure the majority of religions out there don't charge a set price for salvation. Not that it's quite that simple in Scientology but believe me, it ends up working out that way.
meaning you have to fight for it in court which, in the American Legal System means you need to have deep pockets. Most people don't have the cash/want the hassle and so they just fold, even in extremely clear cut cases on their side.
Fortunately, once ACTA passes we won't have to worry about protecting fair use anymore.
Does motivation matter? I trust Google to do little evil/because I believe it is in their best interest, and that they realize this/. It's a greedy corporation that makes its profits by its reputation for fair and open dealing. It's no secret that they data mine your personal data to sell you ads, they tell you when you create an account: machines will read your data and serve you ads.
So I trust Google precisely because it's greedy. They want to keep the nerd trendsetters (laugh but it's true) happy and so they will. I am the demographic they want to please.
God forbid that both the consumer and the corporation win...Adam Smith must be turning over in his grave!
The school's nerds take the problem in their own hands and...persuade...the server to stop serving requests. That's what we've been doing. Gossip is healthy, but it needs the moderation mechanism of not being anonymous.
Some of us watch commericals on YouTube for comedic value. To be fair, it's usually vintage ones (Try refreshing Ayds to lose weight! Ayds helped me lose 15 lbs!)
No, it translates assembly to different assembly that's also English. This is actually a rather interesting piece of work. They didn't just write a program that converts assembly to English assembly, they wrote one in English assembly.
It's possible to be depressed and not even feel sad. It can manifest in other ways such as chronic fatigue, difficulty concentrating, and sleep disruptions, all without significantly effecting mood.
Pretty much everything I learned in college I learned from homework. I'm with you on high school homework, it's just looking up something from a book or brute forcing through some algebra or basic calculus.
No, you're right. They're doing offline attacks. If they had access to the computer while on they'd do a coldboot attack or something similar where they freeze ram in LN2, take it out, stick it in a chip analyzer (or liveboot the computer), and grab the delicious, delicious key material. Also, I believe windows lacks the ability to mark a page as do-not-swap* which means that sometimes you can grab the pagefile and find key material in it. Which is why you should use Ubuntu: Linux for Pedophiles:-)
Of course the iPhone and service plan would be free, if it were ad supported. They would never just put this on current customers with contracts as "added value".
I'm genuinely not sure if I'm being sarcastic or not.

This could easily be their fervent volunteers, not just hired suits. Hitler youths are useful.
Norton explicitly works with the FBI to ensure that the Green Lanterns of the world aren't found.
In America we believe in punishment and deterrence. It sounds like those might not be the main/only goals over there.
Do you guys take immigrants? Scandinavia is one of the few places people still have freedom, from privacy to right to roam. Fucking expensive though.

I'd put decent money on this: http://www.dban.org/. Possible attacks include:
1) Expensive magnetic probing -- they won't bother for just CP most likely, certainly not the incidental
2) Bad blocks sectors -- This could get the data back if you're unlucky, but I wouldn't worry too much about it.

Precisely what it is, except with a brand that is likely to be more trusted to many of us.
targeted ads, complete publisher control. Where can I pick mine up, and how much will I get paid per month to use it?
IP /exists/ by virtue of artificial scarcity. Supply and demand. When supply is infinite...

For the first time I have a reason to want to VPN /into/ the UK. But not a big one thanks to AdBlock.
Not only is it a bad joke, but it's not one I think Hubbard could reasonably trust his fanatical followers to take as one.

Precisely. This is intended for surveillance and squelching dissent, not for fighting "terrorism".

I use gmail with lots of pgp. I get ads for encryption software.

Hardly, they helped another company secure its product. Everybody wins!
