    We have to enter these every login. This is so frustrating!

  9. Re:I don't understand companies on Facebook on Big Brother Friends Facebook · · Score: 2

    Companies like it, because it is a platform for exposure to a _lot_ of people, with a minority of companies using it as a web presence.

    Users like it, because it's a central hub for various services: status updates, friend connections, image hosting, music liking, video sharing, relationship statuses... just what lusers gravitate towards.

    Its problematic, for example, to the point where I can't find out whats happening around my city anymore, without resorting to FB (I don't most of the time). We need FB to stop, and normal web life to continue.

  11. Have you been watching the live feed? on Egyptians Turn To Tor To Organize Dissent Online · · Score: 2

    2 *million* people are marching for their freedom. In passerby interviews they keep repeating that they want a peaceful protest, as they want the rest of the world to stand behind them and see they really want this change.

    Despite that, people got killed from police gunfire, live rounds and rubber bullets included.

    Sure there are a few looters, some suspected of being undercover police to instill FUD in the crowds, a tactic not beyond the past 30 years of tyranny.

    The army publicly announced they will _not_ fire on the people as long as the protest stays peaceful.

    Google's official blog explains a new technology developed by a group of tech geeks who wanted to contribute positively to the current situation in Egypt.

    This is not just middle east anymore, this is humanity coming together.

  12. Re:Net kill switch on Egyptians Turn To Tor To Organize Dissent Online · · Score: 1

    We need more people to think like you: Logically!

    It will not help against a cyber attack, really. That is just an excuse for the Govt to lobby this 'kill switch' into action.

    To me, logically, it seems more like a 'censorship kill switch', I may be wrong, but think about it for a minute:

    The Govt sees now what can happen if people coordinate via the net.

    Suddenly, what they feared could happen to them, is happening in Egypt.

    _Note I talk about the Govt, not the U.S., who are the people_

  13. Re:I'm Confused on Egyptians Turn To Tor To Organize Dissent Online · · Score: 2

    The govt initially just blocked Twitter and Facebook, that's when Tor usage spiked (in addition to the traffic from journalists). The net was cut by the time the streets was filled with people.

    Indirectly, but it's apparent what the killswitch could mean:

    The internet, through born out of the Cold War, should represent the opportunity for a bright, transparent, safe and exciting future for many. However, its use as a tool of oppression and the ever-flaring battles over privacy suggest a long, rocky road ahead.
