Yes no change at all they are free to attack the decryption she should not have to help them. Helping them also shows that she knows things about the laptop that it's hers. It was found in her home she shared with her husband it could be his. Giving up the password proves that she at least had access to it.
If it's a combination lock the DoJ is free to hire a lock smith to open it up. They are trying to do an end run because opening it up is an expensive and long process. They have the data they are free to attack the crypto. Fact is it could be decades before they do that successfully.
We have swung way to far into the governments need for info.. The end runs around spousal protects for the mob cases were the start of the land slide (your supposed to be able to confide in your spouse similar to doctor/lawyer privilege they started threatening them with conspiracy if they did not testify).
Yes and no, they do have that number but it can be layers below where they are generally accessing it. When your talking about encryption at the drive controller level you need to work with the drive manufacture to get at it. If there are no back doors you might need to physically access components that are intentionally fragile. Think the code is stored on the controller chip itself and it's be hardened to tampering. Yes it's possible to get at the data it's just rather hard, expensive and time consuming. If you throw an encryption layer under that (software based) it gets even more time consuming. Creating things that are hard to near impossible to tamper with is not that hard keeping them reliable is. Is there case law for people using fail safe safe that incinerate there contents when forced entry is attempted?
Between AT&T and the various cable companies those are your only option for low latency high bandwidth consumer internet in a lot of the country. I do not suspect that the FCC will do it's job and squish this or the local regulatory bodies.
That is grid tied and entirely artificial. Wind generates power when it feels like it not when it's needed. We force the utilities to buy it from you whether they need it or not. We have been forcing this on utilities for years now and it's feel good legislation. It's just a subsidy not real economics at work. If they had to pay for the power they pulled off the grid after using what power they got from the windmill it would probably not be economically feasible.
We need more baseline power and cheap power at that. This is what will drive other business generation. Wind and solar are cute and work sorta but do not fill that need. Lots of large efficient (not the 50 year old 3% use of expensive fuels what we currently use) fission plants are needed. Use of naval type reactors that can ramp up and down quickly for peek loads needs to be designed and deployed.
These reactors are able to generate hydrogen via there temperatures alone. It would seem rather feasible to generate hydrogen and store it in large quantities to run gas turbines for peek load. Just place the peak load plant next to the nuke.
Do you realize how big the solar panel farm would need to be? How fragile it would be? Strapping solar panels to the tops of the tents might reduce the need for AC mostly by shading the tents not the power they would produce. If you want solar on those scales your looking at heat concentration, and you then have a huge issue of power storage.
It's the same core issue of most of the renewable they are not baseline generators and never will be.
Like I said the great pissing match that started when the Muslim spur of the religion was formed. Everybody claims bits and pieces as there holy sites because they all worship religions from the same base.
As far as our western "exploitation" of the middle east, your missing the core issue it's a pissing match between various splinters of a religion. Have a fix for people with differing delusions about fantasy beings aka religion?
You mean the great pissing match that started when the Muslim spur of the Judeo-Cristian religion was formed? I do not subscribe to the fantasy of religion so I do not really care, I am pretty sure we could glass over the whole place and idiots would be in there worshiping the radioactive glass. As religion is inherently irrational (believing in something that can not be proven is irrational) there is no good solution.
I do believe that disproportionate response works as a deterrent it's also something I can not morally stomach. Genocide works as well but it's even more abhorrent. Giving in is never a solution as easy as it may seem. So were left with no good solution's growing a pair and not being swayed by terrorism would be our best start.
People do not like the reality that all this "security" has no benefit. Were already allowing the things that were used to hijack planes on-board (razors and lighters/matches classic jail house weapon and they can not stop them there either). Security was improved the moment that the passengers figured out it was in there own interest to stop the terrorists and not wait to be rescued. Governments hate an empowered populace it reduces there control.
Want to stop terrorism, eradicate the potential threat, it's rather nasty business and nearly impractical at this point. Give repercussions to people willing to kill themselves for there cause, group punishments again rather nasty business to punish the people that the terrorists cared for.
At this point if the US Government wants to kill an internet based company they can and will. If nothing else they will seize any domain names associated with the company. So you better be.ir or.cu and those governments better like you.
Funny they have asked for just that.from hosting companies. They do not seize the phone companies computes when they have a warrant for info, they send the paperwork and the phone company sends the data. I've been at the receiving end of FBI warrants in hosting companies we package up what they need and even bill them for our time. Unless they had reason to believe that the hosting company or it's staff were part of the criminal activity there is no reason to do this. Sometimes they were even smart enough to ask us to leave it up and sniff it's traffic for weeks at a time.
As far as avoiding this sort of thing it's no different than any other major disaster you need backup servers with a different provider a good physical distance away.
That depends, in some cases security is more important as it's ILLEGAL to not do so, as in individually not some corp slap on the wrist fine. The cloud is a great this up though PCI "regulations" after that it breaks down quickly and needs to be audited. Depending on the exposure it might need an external audit (the CYA you have insurance for this if your wrong type) as well. I've yet to find a cloud provider that provides data at rest encryption, verified drive destruction etc etc etc. Have fun passing an external HIPPA audit without that. I've had auditors complain about unencrypted data on leased fiber as in you would have to climb a pole/dig a hole and have some relatively expensive kit to pull data off (DWDM demux is not cheap). Few business exist outside of any regulatory framework you either are big enough to be covered by SOX, have HIPPA data or take CC via computers, CC is easy to move into it's only little world via the cloud and it's regulatory requirements are designed for that, HR seems like the next big thing to shift as HR is really the same for any company.
My favorite cloud bit is salesforce, it looks like a pretty solid marketing/sales bit all sorts of places use it (the sales folks seems to like it at least). Wait till you start getting complaints about things going into spam folders or just getting refused, there is nothing you can do about it and it's a risk of sharing email servers with thousands of other companies sales people who may not be responsible emailers.
You might have an agenda. Granted it's stupid to try and stop journalism.

Having had one of those devices back in the early 90's it was just a 2 way pager, They never got really popular, the prices made early text messages seem cheap, water cooler talk placed it at 25 cents for each outbound message but no idea what they really cost. You can still get the modern versions have a client that thinks pagers make more sense for on-call so they are still passing around a clamshell 2 way pager. They looked at me funny when I told them the monitoring software could take care of dispatching based on a schedule and send text messages/emails to peoples phones.
Not directly but by buying whatever sales guy got chummy with the PHB and insists will fix everything. It generally cost more does less, is a giant pita to make work and follows no standards even there own.
But little blind Timmy needs another handout. Were have working prototypes of autonomous cars right now. Want to make things better make a autonomous only lane and let it go 100+ mph. For as much as I like driving I would love a faster way to work.
New organizations have enough attorneys and friendly judges to squish this sort of thing. At the end of the day the politicians need them to win elections so they will let the little guys hang out to dry if necessary.
Oh it's a ticket to get stuck in one it's also impossible to move forward without doing it, everybody else will move around your vehicle to fill the hole.
I've been in plenty of LA and NYC traffic where the only way to move forward is to block the box and get caught. How many times have you seen three directions feeding into the forth. When that forth has congestion your stuck ending up mid intersection on a red in bumper to bumper traffic or not moving as the far side will never be clear. Hell if you do not move immediately traffic will flow around you to fill that void.
My favorite traffic camera was I got a ticket for my black sedan when I was nowhere near NJ. The picture was of a white/light ford station wagon with a blur for the plate, I had to hire an attorney to fight it as apparently no human can determine that a white station wagon is not a black sedan. Apparently punching in combos that sorta look like the blur till it's valid is good working practices for these things bonus points for matching the vehicle description.
My point is all legit mail should be after a confirm email. To send things without one from automated systems is broken the only way to see it fixed is mark it as spam. If gmail stops accepting any mail from them they will fix there broken system. This is best practices for all sorts foe automated email it's really not a hard process.
End user tells you what there email address is. Send confirmation email with secret code. End user enters secret code (could be as simple as clicking a url and logging in)
I'm not talking about person to person email here but all the automated bits.
As to the bounce message bit it's broken by design. There is no way to insure that the from address is really the sender so sending bounces will get your mail server on black lists rather fast. I've had to filter those at the mail server end so they never go out. Apple forgot about 30 years of email good hygiene when they put that thing in. If you want to bounce an email do it when your still talking to the sending machine never after.
Just report spam for anything that is not a prove this is your email address confirmation. Best practices for sending email is to confirm it before sending anything else. He is only getting emails from broken systems that should be punished otherwise they will never be fixed.
Please do not ever use this POS function. Bouncing after the receipt of email is bad hygiene. Your bounces are not going to who sent the email but to whoever they forged the from header. Your just creating more spam.

Most of these new systems are designed around the ability to generate hydrogen as fuel so you can shift to producing that off peak.
