Fact is 96% of the world population are NOT US citizens
Yup... and?
and do not wish to be controlled by US interests.
Limiting the topic to just DNS management... can you explain in what way that 96% of the world population is unhappy with the benevolent dictatorship the US has had over the internet for all of this time?
The POTUS using a pseudonym to communicate via email is hardly a scandal,
Most transparent administration evah!
The actual 'scandal', is that it seems Obama lied when he said he only found out about her email system through media reports (a way he has learned about many things).
more of an extra layer of security in case someone does get their hands on classified emails
Why would the President be emailing classified information on an unclassified system?
(and possibly a way to make finding records more difficult).
Interesting how neither the AC nor you put 2+2 together.
Outrage over the allegation of a presidential candidate working with a foreign leader 'against american interests'... while giving a pass to a sitting President who has actively done that for... 8 years now?
No doubt ISIS has been grateful for a Obama Presidency (because power vacuums are such a good idea), and hopes for a Clinton (aka 'no boots on the ground') one to follow.
Russia too has benefited greatly from the opportunities given to them by this administration.
I'm no Trump fan, however I've got a difficult time imagining how Trump could do any worse with Russia than Obama & Hillary have.
If they are behind the release of the fact Obama used a pseudonym to email hillary, despite the fact he denied having any knowledge of her private email. That's good to know too.
The time to address these issues is after the election.
That's the only time where anyone can legitimately claim that their concern is real, and not partisan sniping.
Depends on who is in office, or haven't you noticed that during the last 8 years, virtually any criticism of the President was deemed due to racism, just as any disagreements with a Clinton-45 presidency will only be due to sexism.
Politics never ends, it simply changes form through the year & election cycles.
They've already given Hillary & her crew a pass for multiple rather explicit criminal acts, why not investigate the otherside based on hearsay, who knows what you might find?
It has been proven time and again that ne'er do wells *DO* obtain firearms illegally.
"That's only because the gun control laws in neighboring states are too lax" - Typical response from control proponent regarding Chicago, New York, DC, etc.
Predicted response: "Won't someone think of the children! Guns kill people, encryption doesn't!"
Alas when it comes to proponents of gun control, you don't often encounter honest or thoughtful people. They have a single goal in mind and ignore all of the existing regulation on the books today.
In the 90's the feds viewed the PGP source code as a possible violation of the Arms Export Control Act as the feds had long viewed encryption tech as a munition, so this is nothing new. There is an easy solution though: https://yro.slashdot.org/comme...
This is nothing new, Philip Zimmermann was receiving similar threats during the first crypto-war so published the source code of PGP in a book (https://www.amazon.com/PGP-Internals-Philip-R-Zimmermann/dp/0262240394/) and more or less dared the feds to ban a book.
At this moment in time, no, but it likely will be, multiple times over the next year in the next year: http://www.n2yo.com/?s=37820

Unless a body is in geostationary orbit, you eventually going to have ever possible location within the inclination of your orbit under it at some point, as the body & the earth are rotating at different rates.
This is why polar orbits are so useful for certain types of earth viewing satellites (mapping, spy) as you've the widest inclination and everything will eventually be under the satellite.
Of course, hitting a city sized target with orbital debris is not as easy as it sounds. Unlike Call of Duty Ghosts, simply shooting down is the wrong answer (unless you happen to have unlimited energy and a projectile which will resist the higher temperatures such a high speed direct should would produce). Instead you'd attempt a de-orbit where your body is expected to land around the intended target... and hope that the shape & size of your body doesn't pull too much to one side or the other on the way down.
For what purpose would they want to change the email address inside of an email?
Are we to believe they were so concerned about other peoples email addresses being exposed as part of a FOIA request? Or are they trying to make it harder to search for certain content and/or hide the actual identities of who they are corresponding with?
It's still tampering with federal records, which at last check used to be a federal crime... at least until the FBI & DOJ opted to let a whole lot of people walk.
The fact that they offer an adapter rather dispels this theory.
Hardly, the adapter they give you for free lets you do exactly 1/2 of what you could before.
Today you can plug in an aux cable into almost any recent smartphone as well as another cable to charge when going for a drive. You will have to spend at least $40 more for an awkward, third party adapter (plus another cable) to do the same job... once the adapter is released.
Get good Bluetooth headphones and you won't want to go back
Tell you what... I'll do that... if you agree to pay for every ticket and auto insurance bump I get from using them in the car when driving (where I normally care about using an aux jack).
I could go buy some BT adapter (yeah! spending even more money to get back to where I was!!!) for my 2011 vehicle (which has BT, just not A2DP), however I've yet to find one that doesn't suck big time.
A) Who says he will be the only one facing charges? B) If your boss asks you to do something illegal and you agree, you are still committing a crime, but best to make sure that request is in writing so you can drag them to jail with you as well. C) If only he would have hosted all of his emails on a private email server then allowed a backup copy to be lost in the mail and ordered a subordinate to wipe other backups... then he not only wouldn't be looking at jail time, but could be a Democrat Presidential Nominee... if he happened to be a natural born US citizen.
These days I've just been using the HDHomeRun app for live viewing on my Windows 10 desktop, and recordings on a virtualized Windows 8.1 instance on another machine for my personal use.
Media Center never had a high wife acceptance factor in my home, so I've mostly used it for myself to ensure that even when the household DVR is full, my programs will still be recorded.
Depends on the car. My 2011 has Bluetooth, it just doesn't have A2DP, so either I spend a good chunk of change on a newer car, a smaller chunk of change on a new deck with which I lose the integration I have today with the car, or I go without an iPhone 7 and stick with my trusty aux port.
Like DVB-C, (I assume) all digital video on cable today is done via QAM, usually statically assigned channels, other times switched-digital video (*shuddering*) which is more common for things like video on demand.
It's just that unlike the OTA broadcasters & receiver manufacturers who can all adhere to the pretty clear cut ATSC standard, cable providers (discounting satellite & FIOS) have zero incentive to make sure that the DVR you rented/purchased from them works on another cable system if you move, they just have to support CableCard which works ok if you've got a TiVo or USB, PCIe or Ethernet CableCard tuner... though depending on the mood of the cable company who can set the CCI flag of each individual channel (except usually of the 'must-carry' ones, which may end up with you not being able to view encrypted cable, even if you've got a setup tuner without something like Windows Media Center... which was free in Windows 7, cost you a bit (if you didn't grab it during the first year) in 8, and is no longer available as part of Windows 10.
They regulate "communication", in all forms, as their name directly implies.
That seems a good bit broad of a explanation of their power.
If you will excuse me though, I'm going to go upstairs and see what my son wants for lunch... a form of communication which is not (currently) regulated by the FCC.
Not to mention, how are you to use the port to charge your device while listening to music through the aux port of your stereo (for those of us who do not have A2DP)?

Bingo. No doubt former EPA chief "Richard Windsor" agrees.
It's even more silly in that Presidential records are generally not FOIAable or subpoenable, even when her SoS emails were being released.

So... because she's no longer SoS... the donations and apparent quid-pro-quos while she was in office don't matter any longer?
Sorry, plenty of foreign money came in WHILE she was SoS: https://www.washingtonpost.com...
So Obama should have been investigated by his own FBI over this? http://www.telegraph.co.uk/new...

It is an unfortunate thing that basically no one involved in the second crypto-war has any memory or even knowledge of the first.

Media Center never had a high wife acceptance factor in my home, so I've mostly used it for myself to ensure that even when the household DVR is full, my programs will still be recorded.
USB only gives me MTP access to the files, not exactly useful when trying to resume a podcast I was listening to.
Depends on the car. My 2011 has Bluetooth, it just doesn't have A2DP, so either I spend a good chunk of change on a newer car, a smaller chunk of change on a new deck with which I lose the integration I have today with the car, or I go without an iPhone 7 and stick with my trusty aux port.

Much hope is being held out for the SiliconDust effort to make a working DVR app... however they are a year behind schedule.
That seems a good bit broad of a explanation of their power.
If you will excuse me though, I'm going to go upstairs and see what my son wants for lunch... a form of communication which is not (currently) regulated by the FCC.
