Bullshit. Take a look at a map. You notice there's a country bordering Gaza called Egypt? The Israelis are stopping them from going to and from Egypt? Looks like a pretty leaky cage.
Hmm...oh really? Then why aren't there massive "exoduses" away from the missile strikes, apart from relatively smaller groups of refugees?

If the Paslestinians are "animals", then the Israelis must be the poachers with missiles.
After all, China has no problems with oppressive technologies. You'd think they'd be lining up to get some of that iphone tracking goodness and further control their population.
...but not when the N-Ass-A is also doing that job.
I notice you're not complaining about Samsung, or any of your own local phones. How much less do they track people?
Proprietary software means that they have no way of checking if anything is built in. Though this is likely an attempt by China to boost their own companies' advantages in the market, they have justifiable reasons regarding the security of U.S. closed-source software.
A judge ordered him to turn over these passwords on the grounds of national security but Wilson still failed to comply, earning him six months behind bars.
What. the . Fuck.
I'm sorry, but I really don't see how this in any way is the same as some lunatic trying to blow up the queen.
This even casts doubts upon the NSA's allegations that they prevented several terrorist "attacks". Did they, or were they just hackers who refused to turn over passwords?. Since when in democratic countries do these lower level crimes constitute a "threat to the national security"?
IMO that judge should be fired for throwing around those words lightly.
The S.A.T. was quite very flawed. Anybody who could spout long words and choke up the money for test preparation resources could get a reasonably decent score on the test. The whole test is just an assessment of how well one can study and cram as much knowledge as possible for preparation. It's being revised now, however.
When it comes to fighting cybercrime, few companies can claim to have done as much as Redmond, Washington-based Microsoft, which spent the last five years as the Internet's Dirty Harry: using its size, legal muscle and wealth to single-handedly take down cyber criminal networks...
By the same token, the machine might have greater brute calculative abilities but so what? It wouldn't have our guile. It wouldn't have our paranoia. It wouldn't have our built in infrastructure that would bias our survival.
If the AI was actually sentient though, they could very well soon learn how to feel those emotions.
Foxconn said its new "Foxbots" will cost roughly $20,000 to $25,000 to make, but individually be able to build an average of 30,000 devices. According to Foxconn CEO Terry Gou, the company will deploy 10,000 robots to its factories before expanding the rollout any further. He said the robots are currently in their "final testing phase."
This sounds like something that would be said in the introduction scenes of a robot-revolution move.
...the Republican and Democrat Parties apparently now act as if maintaining their pride and party-loyalty is more important than actually carrying out change and doing their jobs...
Not all Republicans are fanatics that deny global-warming.
The problem is that the actual fanatic radicals in the party end up becoming the defining image of that group in the face of public mass media. (Same goes for the Democratic and other parties)
But with Tor, you know when you put up a node that illegal activity will be conducted over it. People are not using Tor to post on Facebook.
In addition, ISPs also know that their service may/will be used for illegal activity; yet they aren't convicted of aiding criminals. In fact, like the example with SSL another commenter used, the designers of encryption schemes also know that they can be used for illicit activity; yet nowadays encryption is a critical part of the Internet.
By using alleged statistics to justify Tor's illegality, isn't that also implying the ISPs in the plot, because they "ferry" the connections that make illegal transfers over Tor possible in the first place? While the ISPs may not have any criminal intent or knowingly provide service for illicit activities, Tor was also not built with the intent to aid illegal usage, similarly to the ISPs, and the project even originally had assistance from the U.S. government.
In that case, somebody should split all the atoms in the world apart again for even coming together in the first place and giving rise to life, humans, and eventually the criminals.
As for archival copies, so many government agencies and private corporations fail at it, its not longer funny. Just because you think you are backing up and archiving does not mean you are and you only do so in reality when you randomly and routinely check all back up and archives, in fact you need to spend more time on testing and auditing backups and archives than in producing them in order to ensure that you are in reality producing them and that is up to and including restoring from backup onto test systems.
Now, imagine what would happen if the NSA gave another false "we don't mass collect" excuse this time.
Anyways, if that Rep. intentionally is trying to shed new light on the NSA's workings, then well played, even if he is a Texas Republican.
Unless there's an all-out drug war where people are getting killed daily, like in Mexico, or some sort of civil war like in Somalia, why do the police need military vehicles.

Well, it definitely is a good idea for us to have a missile defense system that actually works better.
Hmm...oh really? Then why aren't there massive "exoduses" away from the missile strikes, apart from relatively smaller groups of refugees?

Good point, but "national" security? This is slightly different from some guy threatening to blow up things in airport restrooms.
Proprietary software means that they have no way of checking if anything is built in. Though this is likely an attempt by China to boost their own companies' advantages in the market, they have justifiable reasons regarding the security of U.S. closed-source software.
The same also applies as a valid reason against us.
What. the . Fuck.

Is this going to be a new DLC for Watch Dogs?

Or, perhaps, hacked it and fed another picture of a stereotypical criminal into the database. That'll beat both the system and any witnesses.
Since when do eyewitnesses "positively" identify subjects?

Doe this mean he's hanging up his hat?
Wonder where the civilians factor in...
