That's what i use, and it is pretty damn secure. And there is one other problem, what if you wanna to have a 2-way security, and what if one of the computers is with limited connectivity (let say allowed to connect to only some very specific set of servers), in which case you are simply not able to verify the certificate. And man, thank you very much for the good news, i adore Futurama, long live Fry.
I just remembered a nice sci-fi book "Alice's World" - Sam Lundwall, in which he says, in the near future, you could advertise EVERYTHING (pin intended) only and only if it is true. When i read it, i was surprised how simple and effective a law could be, don't you agree? No complicated "fire somewhere" exceptions, no "free to give, but illegal to pay porno", just a simple and "one sentence" only law.
What? Problem with the antenna? A pure hardware problem that will be solved with the next iOS update, i.e. software problem??? Here i am lost, since when we entered the era of quantum phones?
I use and prefer gmail because it is fast, simple and stable. If i wanted fancy mail box, i would have stick with hotmail for example. I hope they don't "upgrade" the gmail without notification or at least agreement.
I see your reason about "fire in a crowded theater", and the innocent desire to speed-up such abuse of the "free speech", but in my opinion, in order to solve some private and isolated problem, we are changing the whole constitution. Which is very wrong. And lets face it, in 10 years do you really think there will be any "theater" left? I think no, but the "fire in a crowded theater" effect will still be there, and that makes me very unhappy.
I have a Facebook account only to be in touch with some friends of mine......and the only "activity" that i see on my page is some smallville, zoo-ville or whatever-ville game post/request. Thank you, but no thank you. I am considering closing my account sooner than later, and i suppose there are a lot other people intending to do same.
Very well said. I could add that child pornography is bad not because it is "pornography", but because it is "child". This little word changes everything.
And about the adult version, our long history as a human race proved that there always will be pornography, and that the only difference between forbidding it, and allowing it with some regulation is the price. Make it more illegal, and it will become more expensive. As simple as that.
It is funny that you mentioned the "death treats to the President", and that you consider it as a hate speech, and in the same time there was this news about Pakistan banning some sites because of their hate speech to Muslim as a religion, which was considered as an oppressive regime and not democratic.
Nevertheless, i don't have double standards, and i consider both cases as a hate speech, but that does not mean that you need some special law which only purpose is to ban "death treats to the President", instead of the old, good, and nice law forbidding any individual to send death treats to anybody, no matter his sex, religion or importance.
"yelling fire in a crowded theater" may means that there are some very special cases when your freedom is restricted, but it is nonsense to make a law only because there is some exception to the rule. And there you may have some very good reason to yell fire in theater...... even if there is no fire. And that is the problem that i see in the last, lets say century, that there a way too many laws made based on the exception, not the common sense.
Pornography? Just some 20 years ago gay marriage could have been recognized as a pornography. Do we wanna to change the law every 20 years!!!!
Freedom of speech means exactly that, freedom. And freedom is above the right, the rule or stature if you want me use the formal language. Freedom is irrevocable, as the base constitution says. So, even if there is a some stature that restrains it, it is invalid and void. And it is very important that every single person is aware of that fact.

I wonder what they mean when they say: "imprisoned"?
when your karma becomes very bad, and you have some limit on number of posts per day/month/year, and your score is ZERO...... or even if you, or your IP is banned, it is even more effective that the actual DELETE operation.
It is funny that even on this site, slashdot, there is a censorship, but no one bother to raise the public and to fight it.....OKEY, it is not censorship, but RULES. If you don't follow the rules, or if you post an insulting comment, and by insulting comment i don't mean bad words, but something....what, illegal???, then, the CENSOR, i mean the moderator will delete you, block you, low down your rating, in fact, will CENSOR you.
And only to be clear, i agreed to the terms, and i am trying to follow them as best as possible, but nevertheless, it is still censorship.
So, simply because they put some ban on some sites makes them oppressive regime??? Common, you can do it better than that. Be consistent at least.
Apple App store user agreement is "unfair"? I mean, the little detail about tracking your actual geo-location all the time? Do you realize that this is the wet pipe dream of every oppressive tyrant.... Oh, i forgot, we are talking about Steve Jobs, he is just a business-man, and it's just a business. How silly of me.
And btw, people DO choice where to live, and how, and when. Saying that this is not true does not make it true. And adding insults before or after the dot does not make you more intelligent. Period.
Also, regarding the before mentioned quantum mechanics, there is a law, saying the sum of all quantum states is a constant. So, if you are able to change/manipulate the state of the first particle, then, theoretically, the state of the other particle must change accordingly. Of course, this is only on theory, but if these guys are really able to do it....imagine the possibilities.
From you explanation, this device is more like a transmission device, not a memory device? Even better, if you ask me. I am beginning to dream about some fancy, quantum cell phone, untraceable, and extremely secure.
I see what you mean, but, legally speaking, you don't sound convincing. Let me ask you, what is oppressive regime? How do you define it? And, which is more important, do you have a legal ground for its definition? Some consider Apple App Store as oppressive, other thinks Google Androids ToS is oppressive, in fact, anything could be named oppressive by one or another group, so, where is the thin red line?
Anyway, all the Pakistan people did agree to live in their country, and obey their law, which is as binding and legal as.....every law is. Period.
If you publish a copyrighted document for example, without its holder approval, is it a blasphemy too? Because, at the end, Mohamed has all the copyrights over his religion, and anyone who infringes it, is breaking the law, right?

Wow, 2.4M army? I wonder who would dare to attack such a big army!!!
Is this a joke? I thought that with a fibre cable, you could get at least 10 Mbps, minimum.
In the past, the Holy Bible did not have any kind of translation. There was only one holy language: Latin.
I have a question to the mods, why don't you mark this whole article as FLAMEBAIT???? In fact, what is flamebait?

As the last global financial crash proved, being isolated and in backwater does not look so bad at all.
