This article makes one pause to consider the culture at Google and technology companies in general. In fact there is a larger need for transparency to look at Google's internal practices, processes, and technology to protect user information. Are there rogue employees at Google trolling through information on spouses, girl friends, neighbors, etc.
One thing is certain. This will be the start of a wave of leaks of other documents from Google employees.
Once the first does it the barrier has been broken. It going to be very difficult for the company to block release.
There is a larger problem that is not being addressed.
Companies that write insecure software and improperly manage their networks should be liable for damages as a result of their negligence.
Six characters that are alpha numeric is not that much entropy. If they know the word from the text file and your convention they can execute an exhaust attack very quickly
It all depends on where you live. To buy a home in Washington DC you should be earning at least $80,000 a year. Then you have to factor costs of a vehicle, medical, food, utilities, etc. https://www.google.com/amp/s/a...
Andrew Johnson was impeached by the House and came one vote away from impeachment by the Senate. Johnson's crime was telling his secretary of war "Your fired!" Congress had passed the Tenure of Office act which stated that the President could not dismiss appointed officials from the Cabnit unless he had consent from the Congress.
Trump is fortunate that the FBI director is not part of the cabnit. He is also fortunate that the Tenure of Office act was deemed invalid by the Supreme Court in 1924.
I had a friend in college who saved cash to buy his first used car. He went around town with a friend visiting auto dealerships with several thousand dollars in his wallet. At some point he accidentally dropped his wallet along the way and lost between $3,000-$3,500. This would not have happened if he would have paid with a debit card.
I appreciate that Congress wants to help the nation but they should listen to military leaders and keep the current structure. The long term solution to combat threats in "Cyber space" would be to hold companies liable for in secure software and data breaches.
Creators and producers of content should have mechanisms to protect intellectual property and secure reveneue from content.
Why is this group fighting against DRM?
The security researcher did NOT use the vulnerability that Wannacry used to install the software.
The author and researcher are disingenuous in there characterization.
Documents produced by government officials are official records. The FBI director was not documenting the result of a conversation when he was acting in an official capacity not as a private citizen.
I would consider paying $7 a month to be able to stream ESPN channels over broadband.
ESPN missed an opportunity and now they have been forced to cup personalities to address lost revenue due to cord cutting.
Government agencies keep detailed records on salary and promotions. This information includes information such as race, age, years in grade before promotion, etc.
Commercial companies owe it to their workforce to do the same

It's sad to read many of the comments on this thread. It is clear that many do not want to step up and put those words against their account name.

I know torrents are used to share ISOs for Linux distributions which is legitimate. How much of the torrent traffic is to share copyright content?

Connect an antenna to the coax which will allow you to watch local broadcast TV.

DCMA cuts both ways. How much money did artists, musicians, actors, directors lose due to piracy before DCMA?

Thanks for posting that information. I did not realize that was the case

Would a moderator please remove off topic threads? Thanks!
I am thankful for the contributions of Linus and so many in the open source movement.
Universities are funded by public funds and all research papers should be freely available.

I laughed out loud reading this story. I imagine scores of people yelling "go faster" while running through the air port.
Will my employeer give me a raise for switching from tabs to spaces.
Creating social networks requires joining data. Distributed storage sounds great. Solve the distributed join problem and it might work.
Typo that needs correction. The first NOT was typed in error. The FBI director was in fact acting in an official capacity
