The police, who wants to fight piracy which is claimed to be happening by the corporations, go bust servers with neither warrants nor court orders. What exactly are making these claims legit enough to skip due process? Or is due process some sort of privilege that we shouldn't expect them in the first place?
At the point you described it would become the problem "what gives the companies the authority to enforce laws?" Because they didn't say they will scan it for law enforcement purposes, and laws vary by places. So if they operate in a place which restrict free speech and starts scanning, does that imply they should report all those who are violating the speech restrictions?
If you are a rich cartel who needs such spaces, before you use the service, sneak in and get a lot of cheap drugs and powder spray them all over the places so the next time the dog went by they have to search everything. do this everyday for a few weeks and people will stop responding to these things.
I would imagine a potential way of exploiting it would be to randomly modify one of the bits in one or more pixels of the image, and make enough copies of them so we are in the hash collision territories. Especially if you are passing these things through email as opposed to P2P, but I think it is doable in P2P as well.
Imagine you can't bring apple devices into your local government-operated buildings like library or DMV. That will be enough to make the hit huge because nobody wants to have that kind of inconvenience. Yet in a place where human rights is restricted, that is a totally forseeable development.
What I have learned from the news is that the policy has always been "If there has been nothing in the news, don't bother." It costs electricity and labour cost to do it. The previous story on/.
On top of that, I am surprised that pedos didn't do anything AFTER Google caught someone. This once again validates the claim that we always underestimate the bounds of stupidity in people.
This is what studying ethics/morality feels like. And this isn't exactly progress, unless you count "progressing to a police state". Many things in life are conflicts of various field of interest, and it is up to the philosophers/activists/lawyers/judges/lobbyists/legislature to figure them out.
The problem usually comes down to that "personally relevant product features, such as customized search results, tailored advertising, and spam and malware detection" didn't include "days in court" nor "jail time" as their catalog of "personally relevant product features".
Why aren't these guys encrypting their stuff? I would imagine extra care are to be taken if they think what they are doing can be morally objectionable...
And then it hit me that the NSA works like that too. Always blow on the morally objectionable stuff.
Zeroth Law of Stupidity: There is no upper bound on the amount of stupidity that can exist within any particular individual.
First Law of Stupidity: We always underestimate the number of stupid people, even after the First Law of Stupidity is applied/accounted for.
Does that answer your question?
"In an effort to reduce the amount of people to enjoy our service, we will start charging extra when you don't want others to come enjoy our service". Well played.
Are cellphones better than guns at hijacking planes now? At least they can replace the communication stream and take advantage of whatever that might follow.
because not everyone patches the stuff on the same day, some some people got crap like reboot to worry about. So expect the order to be -15 to -20 days patch for 0 day exploits
Meanwhile, millions of citizens of the US are being hampered by the republicans to get the same or better health care that prisoners do. So if you are not in prison you are second class to prisoners?
Or it's just that those opinions which don't resemble that one those got censored already. Or they just want you to think that they censor all the other ideas. or ideas other than "they just want you to think that they censor all the other ideas" got censored. Ad nauseam.

Or Amazon? Afterall EC2 is perfect for your hidden service if you are using its other services.
How stupid can places get?

Are we to stop driving and start using the bicycle?
Let's see how that turns out for my snd_hda_intel on my dusty laptop.

So when are we having Larson-ish cows?

but somehow they don't want people to die there from non-natural causes so they give the prisoners there full health coverage.
Don't worry, NSA got a copy already so it got you covered

Is that odd to say people want the option of jailbreak, not necessary right now? They might just want to exercise the choice at their own pleasure.
Then comes apps that refuses to run on a jailbreaked phone, and then comes VM's/chroot's that will run those apps, ad nauseam...
