Actually, if you'd been paying attention to paid shilling on here the last few years--as opposed to just recently when it became convenient to find things to blame on the Russians--US govt. and corporate shills have been here for years. Go read old (~2013) threads on network neutrality, nuclear energy, Julian Assange, etc., and ask yourself what Russia would have to gain from any of the clear and present trolling therein.
Pro-tip: Russia doesn't care about slashdot. It doesn't care about "sowing discord", despite when your fevered Rachel Maddow-turned-Glenn Beck fairweather-neocon talking heads tell you. There's much information out there about government-paid shills, and they aren't Russian.
Go read some threads around the time of Snowden's relevations and notice all the spammy and straight-up disinformation in the comments. Now ask yourself, "why would Russia want to trash Snowden?" Then put two and two together, ditch your naiive russian victim fantasies and look in the fucking mirror, because it's your tax money that's paying for all the anonymous N-bombs and other garbage spam that has made slashdot's comments section insufferable the last while.
Like I said, sleep tight.
p.s. I'd hope for your sake that I'm not a Russian, because having a worse grasp of English grammar than a non-native speaker would be pretty sad.
... then i doubt you'd recognize the real news when it's staring you in the face, such as the fact of google choosing what news outlets will have exposure at all. Sleep tight little sheep
It has everything to do with lifestyle, namely that a city life entailing being doused in barely-tested chemicals all day is worse for your body than a rural existence.
Wow, you are deluded, where to begin? We have John McCain visiting the so called Free Syrian Army in 2013, John Kerry admitting on record that least a 1/5th of those we armed were "not good guys", you have laughable programs where the military spends millions of dollars training dozens of resistance fighters in the vague hope that they won't just take the weapons and run, you have the CIA rat line moving weapons in from Benghazi, Lybia (read Seymour Hersh's piece about it), you have intelligence on ISIS targets being altered on their way up the chain so that we kill social media goons rather than actual leaders.. and then you have General Wesley Clark's "prediction" of our syrian involvement after 9/11. I could go on and on.
The idea that we are there for humanitarian purposes is absurd. Our more recent involvement had to do with a pipeline for Qatar to move oil to europe. And that's according to RFK Jr. :
Regardless, intel processors, whether they're purchased individually or on a machine manufactured by the likes of dell, has Intel ME activated from the start. That's the point. Your nitpick is insignificant.
Anyone who bought a thinkpad laptop with an i5 or better has it on by default. You seriously think it's impossible for anyone other than a business to buy such a laptop?
"Fine, all the humans who died of treatable nervous diseases because it took decades to get the medicines properly tested....their blood is on your hands."
That''s assuming that anything comes of the research, which is just that, an assumption. You' re offering a false choice and tagging it with phony morality. You could make the same arguments to justify nazi experimentation too--" hundreds died to save thousands"--so spare me your "calm down".
It's good to see that at least a few people here aren't paid shills. The spooks have been shitting on assange since the afghan war diaries dropped. You can tell they really hate wikileaks.
Your argument is pretty much "well it's all 0ublic anyway, so the government deserves all of our ip addresses and access logs for any site it pleases". Please give up all your own info voluntarily, and leave me out of your sick privacy-less fantasy for our country.
Maybe next time you could have some self-awareness and not spam up threads on an article that happens to be about your own profession? Just makes it more than a little obvious why you're here.
You trust the washington post after the CIA paid Bezos far more than the paper is even worth, jist to propagandize on its behalf? The washington post, which disallows their writers from criticizing any of their advertisers? If you're not joking, you're either incredibly ignorant, or here on an alphabet soup agency's behalf.
There was a college experiment several years ago where people put on masks, some of which then messing with the crows. It became clear that they remember faces. https://www.popsci.com/science...

... then that would be a great argument

Rocks that get you laid, laser sight rifles, anything else we wanna add to this bizarre fantasy?

You sure you want to be sayin this on the internet, buddy?

It's funny how US government and corporate shills pretty much announce their presence on here nowadays. Thanks for that courtesy.
For some time now, in fact. It's just not something that articles seen on /. would addres

The shilling here is on overdrive. I first noticed it with Assange and Snowden threads, now it's all over the place.

You can always tell someone doesn't have much to say when they start lamenting the president out of the blue in an unrelated thread.

Hasn't anyone told you that people are tired of the russia defense? Someone meeds to update your script.
You don't think verizon would destroy consumer privacy, all the while they are doing it in broad daylight? You kidding me? User browser histories?
there couldn't be a blank check too big for the military industrial complex as far as that guy's concerned.
There's a screencap, wtf are you smoking?

.. on the human body? Then yeah, you should fucking care. But enjoy your blissful ignorance.
Clinton said she would be willing to consider nuclear force in the 2008 debates, and obama said he would not. There you go.
No different than the supposed power plant attacks during the election last year?
