For me at least there is much less of a grey line in this area, I dont have a TV, so I've had friends tape shows, and go and watch them later. I have traded tapes. People have had VCRs for ages, and there actually are people who can program them. The industry has known this for a long time. Most people have a small collection of movies taped off of cable.
I hope that they can learn from the mistakes that the music industry made.
Look, records have to be tied to something, if you buy your books in person, with cash, and dispose of your recept, then you cant be traced, there is no link. Simple as that.
Looking at the diagram at the bottom of the article, I was reminded of how Freenet works... so at least in that area it looks a bit redundant. The article seems to describe more of a grouping of many ideas which have been out for a while and adding in a bit of marketing hype. Nothing to impressive, but intresting none the less.
It seems to be a matter of which protocoll Trillian uses, from my limited understanding of the matter, there are two protocols to connect to the AIM service.
Toc - A pretty "open" protocol used for the AIMs Java clients, as well as a Tcl/Tk, and an emacs version.
Oscar - The original protcol, its pretty cryptic, whereas Toc uses ASCII for the transmitions, Oscar uses a more binary sort of comunication. I'm 90% sure that Trillian is now using Oscar so that they can include more of their features the notable feature being SecureIM
The problem with this is that alot of things other than 802.11b and cell phones give off radiation... radios, cordless phones, microwave towers. Wonder how they will get around that.
I doubt that most software is unbreakable in their current form. Unless the developer worked to make it unbreakable from the start or rewrote with that objective. And I doubt that it is possible to "fix" software to be unbreakable without doing a rewrite.

Next time I got up to visit the ISS I'll make sure that I lie to them about my drinking problem.

ahh... good, the last post on "CS anti-cheating" spawned way too many posts about Counter-Strike...

I almost started in my chair. Something about catching Counter Strike cheaters! Finaly!
Such a program would be more useful to me than the GA thingie

Who is suprised at this anyway?
Wonder how long before lawers start using encrypted phones...
I'm personaly glad, I have been impressed with KDE... I like the clean interface... heck it looks almost as good as XP...
Humm.... do I pay $3,600 for a 3x3 LCD wall.
Or $10 for a kit to make a 100 inch TV....
What is the Immigrant status of Sklyarov?
Is he on a temporary work visa? A visitors visa?
Does he have a green card?
The waiting line for green card is really
long... (I'm not a laywer) but immigrants fall under different laws than Ammerican citizens...
Anyway....
