    Why do our mighty Russian hackers rely on pathetic phishing scams instead of putting in hardware backdoors by intercepting new hardware in the mail?

    Because people in the US rarely buy hardware made in Russia? How would they gain access to the hardware to put in the backdoors?

    Why can't they park a TEMPEST van a few miles away and read the passwords from the keyboard?

    You simply asking that question indicates your complete lack of knowledge of what TEMPEST is and how it works. No, those signals are far too weak to travel miles, they might travel 20 feet or so, but not miles. TEMPEST is reading the signals that unintentionally leak from computers in the keyboard/mouse cables, and the video signaling (van Eck phreaking), and in vibrations being generated by things such as the keyboard as you type.

    This report is related to the DNC leaks which alleged the presence of RATs, etc. being found after an investigation caused by the emails being leaked to Wikileaks. Podesta was phished in a completely separate incident.

    Actually, the report details both hacks. Take a look at the diagrams, they show APT28 using a spear phishing email to get into "Recipient"'s email.

    The second diagram in the report is what is talking about the spear phishing email.

    In fairness, Obama and the CIA were smack in the middle of the Ukraine situation and is what initiated the Russian response. The same is also true for Syria.

    Actually, you have it wrong, as I said upthread to another of your statements like this. Marriage as a religeous ceremony comes from the Roman Catholic ceremony that was named martre in Latin (likely butchered by /., but it is in the above link). You are very confused about the origins of marriage, and provide no citations. Considering that your claim about it dating back to 5k BCE, can be demonstrated false just from the etymology of the word.

    Personally, I still don't know why polygamy is outlawed. In polygamys relationships, all people conscent to the relationship. Both women have to agree to the marriage (or both men...), so what reason does the state have to outlaw it?

    I ask this as a Catholic, I am not Morman, and wouldn't want multiple wives myself, but it is something that always has bothered me. Also, how are anti polygamy laws not unconstitutional via the first amendment's freedom of religion?

  23. Re:Marriage is by definition a legal construct on Humans Marrying Robots? Experts Say It's Really Coming (fortune.com) · · Score: 1

    Except for the fact that Marriage predates the civil ceremony. Marriage is a religeous ceremony that the government felt it needed to have some control over and so cooped it. It is still a religeous ceremony, and a civil contract/license. I am not sure what it would mean to marry a robot. Would you be giving the robot the authority to make medical decisions on your behalf? Would you be entitling the robot to inhereting your properties? Why would a robot need property? Why would there be a tax benefit for marriage to a robot? Can a robot earn its own income? Can a robot even conscent to the marriage?

    Big important detail missing from this story, robots are inherently non sentient. An android is a sentient robot.

    I learned while going through a divorce, all the papers you sign between the two of you mean 0 to a judge. We had a divorce decree (drawn up by a lawyer and signed by both of us) which set out specific things, but when it came to the divorce, it was treated just as a peice of paper. Luckily, the changes weren't too drastic, and I still ended up with the kids, but our agreement meant nothing once the courts were involved.

    Make sure you talk to that lawyer about how binding that prenup, or other paperwork really is.
