And when we can't, we have to assume the worst, using precedence and circumstantial evidence. Authority is adversarial and those that want it must be treated that way.
Sorry, if he wants the power, we have to keep them honest, and let them know that we are watching. Those have to be the conditions. Simple removal of that power on the slightest suspicion will be sufficient 'punishment'. I'm not asking for jail time for the small shit. It will keep out the riff-raff the permeates the system today.
Unlike Israelis, you don't hear about Moroccans spying on the US and selling US intelligence secrets.
Only shows they're better at not getting caught. In the middle east we have no 'allies', only clients, and by the numbers Saudi Arabia is one of our best. We sell to Iran and ISIS (the politicians called them 'moderate rebels' when they point their weapons away from us) also, but that is done a bit more 'discreetly', where everything simply vanishes in to thin air
For 60 billion dollars I'll be their bitch! And right now we are making huge profits from both sides in the Saudi-Iranian proxy war in Yemen. We are repeating Iran-Contra all over again. Why would anybody let that market fall into the hands of a competitor?
Instead of puking, invest! War is good business, or it wouldn't be happening.
The entire CA system is a fraud, snake oil, provides a false sense of security, etc, driven and manipulated by big money.
You are right. There is no remedy, aside from user awareness. In the meantime my 'remedy' is to image a clean system for restoration purposes. As far as the spying aspect is concerned, there's little that can be done while we are hooked up to the company wire. With the internet there can be no trust. It just can't happen
They are, however, entitled to be innocent until proven guilty.
Cops and politicians no. We have to hold them to a much higher standard if we are going to authorize the power we give them. The Sword of Damocles must hang over all their heads. We don't put a high enough price on power.
And why is Afghanistan more 'believable'? A Saudi businessman was hiding out in Pakistan, and we bomb their neighbor because the Taliban (remember them?) cut off the flow of opium. And hardly a peep of protest, from anybody. Weird...
I'm still trying to figure why everybody gives the Afghanistan opium war a pass. Why would they believe one lie and not the other? It makes no sense. And please, don't let the democrats play innocent on this. They all stood together and made some good money.
And it always turns into some stupid religious/political argument. I really don't care about Mohammed this and Mohammed that. The more important story to me is how well people are circumventing it, and what is being done to help. Leave the philosophers to masturbate in their echo chambers.
And we do our part by giving it to them. Gotta stop buying their crap products and stop reelecting their 'preferred' candidates, otherwise this will go on indefinitely.

... the American people don't like messes and if we had wars over here there might be less appetite to go have them elsewhere.
On the contrary, war dips its toe in American waters and the Americans go crazy and attack, usually the wrong people.

I wish we'd stop meddling...
Can't. The Russians will move in.
The Saudis know we're their bitch.

You even have the dimmest understanding of what you have written.
Google also, if they had more business in China, the CNNIC's root certificate authority would remain. Nobody gets that big on 'principle'.
This confirms the absolute uselessness of this whole 'certificate' thing, except for tracking purposes of course.

Eh, people are tyrants, whaddya gonna do? Either we will evolve out of it, or we won't.
It's an evolutionary emergence, arising from the muck of screams, grunts and groans.

...the release of Soviet documents, revealed the arms buildup to be a Reagan administration fantasy.
This is why, as the summary stated, we should stop electing/reelecting these people.
...started a criminal war in Iraq...

"Internet" addiction is scapegoating the medium.
I don't understand why you're getting so riled up over this.
It's shtick, let it go...
Basically, Imagine a stadium full of soccer hooligans with 3x as much booze as they're normally allowed to have.
Maybe they would all pass out. I wouldn't call that a bad thing, but the cleanup crew might.
Please! Be sure to have the camera rolling! And leave the youtube link to the paramedics for uploading.
Is this allowed by the commercial clause in the 1st Amendment?
Prison fetish.. The justice system isn't constipated, it is perverse.
Your vote is what makes it true.
I voted for Feinstein.... Fuck-tard here.
Heh, you got that right!
They want it both ways.
