Well, it is easy to verify whether the settlement is sealed or not. Someone who has access just have to look at the PACER info on the case. Anyway, did you complain about it to Red Hat too?
To be honest, even a wired network isn't perfect either. ARP poisoning can be done both over wireless and over wired networks, and in fact Hole196 just provide another way to broadcast the necessary packets that bypasses any wired IPSes.
Christopher Byrd has a simple modification to EAP-TLS that disables client certificate validation to provide more secure open wi-fi: http://riosec.com/open-secure-wireless This would require modifying only the Authenticator and the Supplicant, and it would be a simple modification to both.
Yep, having a VPN at home also allows you to access your home computers from anywhere you have Internet access. It can be combined with Windows's Remote Desktop, for example.
Yea, I know! The saddest part of it, however, is that even if current MBA courses have stopped teaching the flawed theories used by Jack Welch (like cutting costs), there are still many MBAs from that age who still believe in them. Board of directors needs to stop giving them jobs as CEOs. Finance would I think be a better job for them.
And names like this is not really secret. It is obvious that SteveB at Microsoft stands for Steve Ballmer, even if it can't be confirmed that it is really him.
I suspect many Slashdotters commenting did not do their research on the history of the products.

Oracle To Monetize Java VM
·
· Score: 2, Interesting
Another IMO worse example is MySQL AB themselves, before they got bought by Sun. They were going to do a support model, but the big problem is that the distributions already is taking all the support money. So they tried to make money by providing support on Windows. Obviously this was flawed, so eventually they tried to make some new features proprietary (in a different way than what Oracle is doing with Java), resulting in a backlash. MySQL was almost going to IPO with such a bad business model when they got bought by Sun.
not trolling or anything, the only reason java is tolerable at all these days is because finally, most devices, including mobile devices, have become powerful enough to withstand the sheer bloat. 10 years ago, running anything java was painful.
Yep, that is exactly why Sun created Java ME. And they were going to monetize it, hence the Apache Harmony test kit field of use disputes. In the end, it was beaten by Android using a I think language-compatible but not bytecode-compatible clone of Java called Davlik, which killed it, hence why Oracle is suing Google.

A 486FX? Wasn't that a 487SX?
And notice how MOV DRx and RD/WRMSR are privileged instructions already.
Remember Robert Collins and how he reverse engineered the ICE mode of old Intel processors?
I do whitehat SEO work so I have to post AC on this one.
I'd post as non-AC if possible even in that case, but I know it is not always possible.
Yep, MS's Patch Tuesday is IMO often too slow for IE, which is a big part of the problem.
Well, I just read the final complaint and it has nothing to do with patents:

And some Supplicants would be able to connect unmodified by using a dummy certificate.

It is easy to bypass though by capturing a four-way handshake. A fake authentication can be used in order to have a client go though it again.
The client has the keys only to decrypt traffic targeted to the client, not to other clients.

Well, this seems to be about copyright, not patent infringement. I have edited the wiki.
So here we are with Oracle now owning java and, surprise surprise, Ellison is out to monetize it.
Jrockit has existed for years, since they acquired BEA.
IMO public microblogging and Internet postings should be considered fair disclosure, espicially if the real name and company was disclosed.
And names like this is not really secret. It is obvious that SteveB at Microsoft stands for Steve Ballmer, even if it can't be confirmed that it is really him.
MySQL AB for example was seriously hurt by distribution vendors taking all the money, as I said in another comment.
An advantage of open source is that it allow multiple companies to offer support for the same code, allowing improved competition.

Yep, it seems that there are many commenters here who did not research the history of JRockit and HotSpot before commenting.
Nope, because the open source Hotspot makes it redundant!
