Where do you draw the line? I understand that it is illegal to intercept mail, but we are talking about foreign exports which are under tight scrutiny.
In my experience, the difference between VPS and cloud is the orchestration system. Cloud usually means that the customer can create and launch instances at will, while VPS need to be created by a human before releasing to the customer.
You get what you pay for. Also while related, I don't think VPS fits directly into the cloud conversation. This would be no different then a collocation getting DOS'd

Yes, because accusing China of espionage is fucking crazy! These people need to put their tinfoil hats back on if they think China would ever spy on foreign businesses and government. The United States is the only country that is able to spy, because Snowden said so!
The blindness of the sheeple is amazing. I am sure you denied that any spying was plausible before the leaks, and now you are denying its possible for anyone other than the US because of the leaks, and your opinion will change next week when another leak is published. To those who use common sense, you can see the larger picture here. This is nations doing what nations do. The US is not alone, nor is China the only other culpable country. This is being done by everyone with the resources to do so, and those who don't really wish they did.
We may have some growing pains, and might not stay as dominant was we were post WW2. I don't think we will fall as a nation though, we have too many natural resources and big bombs.
250GB SSD's are about $100 if you catch them on sale, some even cheaper. The prices are dropping by the day, they were twice the price last year. I expect 500GB to be around $150 here soon.
You should be forcing SSL from the start and advertising SSL URL's only. Having mixed content leads to MITM attacks using stuff like sslstrip. While your points are mostly true, it is just shitty practice that you shouldn't expect from such a large company.
Society worldwide is changing towards renewable energy. While Tesla's cars might not be perfect right now, they are a step in the right direction. It is so hard to go up against an established industry, especially when they have such large lobbying budgets. I hope you can understand that this isn't just about Tesla, it's about new businesses being able to compete.
And for the 0.0001% give me a break. These cars may be expensive and considered a luxury item, but it doesn't mean they cannot be afforded by middle to upper middle class. Also, new technology is expensive, that's how it works. If they don't sell any new cars due to archaic laws, how do you expect the price to drop?
This topic is very interesting to watch unfold, and I think many slashdotters would agree with me.
The bug seems quite obvious. I would expect they could be a little more clever if they were to write the bug itself. This is failure of the OpenSSL project, period.
I was able to make $2,000 off dogecoin in the first 24 hours, it was amazing. Talk about the right place at the right time, I don't even own a decent video card.
People here can't see the implications beyond tweeting toasters, don't mind them. The future is a scary place for those people involved in technology of the past.
I love how you can dismiss a theory based on your preconceived notions of how terrorists must act. I am sure that they have a playbook and would never consider deviating from what it says.

He was correct. While you are also correct, you failed to see the attack vector. If the network is not secure, your SSL may not be effective, at least not for all users.

I am very curious how they are running a public cloud if they themselves are not server huggers.

How much space do you need for your computer?

Say what? Everyone here keeps telling me that RAID is backups!

this is a product designed for the 0.0001%.
Come on now...

Good job buddy
Due to the fact that this exploit leaves no traces in server log files, we have concluded that there is no evidence of an attack on our servers.
This is the dumbest post I've seen.
Slashdot allows users to post, which requires a keyboard. Does that make Slashdot a keylogger/trojan?

Uh, I am pretty sure they do much of this already.

I agree mostly, but just wanted to note that having a unique publicly routable IP address does necessarily mean the device is open to the internet.

You should be a detective!

Because SSL on Open WiFi is fool proof....

Yes, because it is impossible to create a new address.
