Unlike you or me, Sec of State has a DUTY (briefed by the FBI) to keep national secrets safe. Ignorance is not an excuse, and trying to invoke it here is pretty short sighted. But let me just give you a bit of advice, next time a (R) gets caught, and says "I didn't know", you need to go full on defensive for them. Otherwise, you're just a partisan hack.
Ignorance is not an excuse. FURTHER she was briefed by the FBI before taking office that it was her DUTY to make sure information remained secured. So, between the "I didn't know" and "it was her duty", she appears to have serious violations of laws, ethics and whatever else might apply.
Its not a reboot loop if it recovers. It recovers. It reboots a lot, but it isn't a loop.
From what I've experienced, Win10 has issues with people who have migrated from a standard HD to an SSD using a migration tool. Since this has been fairly common over the last couple years, I suspect that this is the bulk of the "reboot loop" you're seeing. The problem IMHO are the people who have seen the reboot, haven't researched the causes, and are left scratching their heads.
The trick for MS is to quickly identify these machines, offer an upgrade path that is outside their norms (clean install*). Because short of that, these people will not be able to upgrade to Win10 smoothly, ever.
*Clean install is possible once you have already done the update, because during the update a new KEY is generated, unique to the machine, stored in MS servers. However, you cannot do a clean install, without having already "upgraded" because there is no KEY generated.
Taxes, are a threat to freedom. Because behind just about every tax, is the threat of government guns. Regardless how how justified you think taxes are, they require FORCE. Or else, nobody would pay them.
And since the silly season of politics (in America) has begun in earnest, take a long look at who thinks taxes are a good thing, and who thinks they are not.
If you want my prime example, see Eric Garner's arrest. For selling untaxed cigarettes.
Socialism suggests that the state has a RIGHT to the rewards of work, as if his work is owned by the state. The "means" of production are just a waypoint to that.
This is why we have confiscatory taxes at just about every level, which the poor and middle class cannot avoid, while the rich can.
Sweden is fairly monolithic in nature, a singular people and culture, so socialism's failures haven't reached it yet, but there are cracks even there. Whenever another "culture" invades, it will succumb to the inevitable failure when the minority culture realizes that it can vote itself goodies from the public trough.
and that comes almost exactly to the amount they are "saving" in fees and taxes.
And yet, nobody really understands why government regulations hurt the small guy. All these barriers, all the licenses, fees, taxes all hurt those that can least afford them.
Socialism requires very strong, authoritative government. Giving power to the people and socialism don't go together. And individual rights disappear under socialism. Individuals have no rights, only the group does.
How do you judge the intent of a drone flying over your property?
I see a drone flying over, I take it out. Period. The asshole flying the drone can then present is case to the local judge and explain why I have his drone in my yard.
Actually, my time browsing/. has already been paid for by productivity increases. Okay, so I am resting on my laurels a bit, but IMHO it sparked one of the greatest things I've done at work.
Back in the early 2000's I was reading/. and saw two unrelated articles, that caused me to try to combine them. I had already known about both, but the proximity of both to each other sparked a thought.
That spark, allow us to be able to image WinXP machines, fully patched, with the correct drivers for all of our various computers, without intervention. Something that RIS/WDS couldn't do natively. This saved us a boat load of IT time, and allowed me to complete a project in a fraction of the time I had originally estimated. And over the years (six-seven), it served us admirably.
It isn't hard to convince business end, it is a function of money. IT is a cost center, it doesn't generate revenue. Therefore, by default there is a desire to hold costs down, which means limited IT budgets. Trust me, the business end understands, they just don't care about IT the way IT cares about IT.
That being said, it is EASY to get either money or absolution for the problems that Business end creates by not funding IT properly. You get them to sign off on the responsibility for when the shit hits the fan because of shortsighted budget concerns.
"If airplanes crash into this building, and 9/11 happens to us, how much data can you afford to lose". "If a hacker gains access to our database, how much would that cost the company" "How much does IT downtime cost this company"
People incapable of answering these questions (and a thousand more), should not be making IT decisions, until they can.
I disagree with the premise that security comes from "Things you are. Things you have. And Things you know"
True security is a web of trust relationships. I can present a badge (things you have) , and pretend to be someone else (things you are) and even have some knowledge (things you know) and still be lying. REAL security is verifying these things against another "trusted" source.
If I present a ID card representing ABC Corp, saying my name is Archie Angel and pretend to know what I am doing (here to check on the copier) THAT is not identification, though it usually is represented that way.
The real ID is when I call my contact at ABC Corp, and say "I have an Archie Angel here wanting to fix the Copier, did you dispatch him" and having that contact say "Yeah, he's a tall chap with a grey beard".
True ID requires a web of trust. The better the web, the higher the trust.
The people making these kinds of lame decisions need to be removed from their positions over IT. They don't have any ability to even begin to understand the problem, and shouldn't be in charge of any solutions.
Nobody calculated the cost of malignant ads taking over computers via the latest Flash/Java vulnerability. Perhaps, if they didn't actually their users more than it makes for the advertisers, then perhaps we wouldn't use adblockers nearly as much.
But if that were the case DPI (resolution) doesn't matter.
How do I know? One of my best friends has Macular Degeneration and indeed does need to be very close to see what's going on. I can assure you that 55" TV at 18 inches to someone suffering Macular Degeneration wouldn't work for her.

She stayed married to Bill. But then again, I'm pretty sure that is how she got her position as Senator and then Secretary of State.
Ignorance is not an excuse. FURTHER she was briefed by the FBI before taking office that it was her DUTY to make sure information remained secured. So, between the "I didn't know" and "it was her duty", she appears to have serious violations of laws, ethics and whatever else might apply.
I can't believe this is even debatable.

All taxes are regressive.
I would love to see the exact part of the Constitution that deals with property in light of governance.

Sometimes. Most of the time, the opposite happens.
Government Licensing does one thing, and one thing only. It increases barrier to entry by raising the cost of doing business.

allowed me to save $1.2 million once for a new datacenter
That's a lot. Or that isn't much. It depends on what the whole build out actually was. In other words, was that 50% cost reduction, or 1%.

Boon to companies like OnePlus (unfortunately, doesn't work on VZ) in the long run.

At first, I thought that Marvel had created a piece of software the created formulaic superhero scripts for their franchise. My bad
It is government, so I would think this is being as close to self evident as it can get.
