It depends on what process AT&T uses to monitor your traffic. If it's something that can be bypassed easily with a VPN or proxy of some sort, then yeah - it will be the same as Google. If not, and they force to you install some sort of adware on you pc or in your browser or something, then it changes. If they stop you from using vpns, if they use dpi, there are a lot of IFs. How far is AT&T willing to go. If it's the same as Google, great, but we don't know.
Also, right now, VPNs don't handle gigabit speeds. As it becomes more popular, they will. They can, also, claim to not be able to track 'everything', just highlights that allow them to forward ads. Basically, it sounds like you're going to have to install adware on your computer if you want the $30 discount. It would make sense. The adware will probably be what tracks your usage, and if you don't use it you will be charged extra or something.
Either way, if you agree to it and decide to save the $30/month, they are going to screw you.
I don't know, if I had the option I would just pay the $100/month, unless there were a better option available that was cheaper. I would still use my VPN, though, for as much as made sense to use it for. The google fiber alternative sounds much, much better.
There's nothing to say that anyone contacted hotwheels. Hotwheels just may have panicked. I can't see a federal judge caring about being doxed. Most of that is public information, and if it was a problem he would have had it taken down a long time before. It's not like federal judges don't get 'doxed' by defendants every day. Over the years, I'm sure, he's developed a thick skin. If it's out there and possible to get, he knows it's out there, etc.
Libertarian Socialist. This is where the word Libertarian came from. Right wing Libertarianism is a mess created in 'merca to split the vote. It doesn't actually exist, it's a Penn and Teller magic trick.
I use a logitech harmony keyboard. It's a little quirky, but I only use the remote functions I want to use, and assign them to the keyboard. I haven't seen my remote since I bought my TV. That said, I would like a stupid tv, for sure. My next one will be 4k, and I would rather have it stripped down.
More than possible. I mean, I can accept that there might be no health benefits to the occasional glass of wine. There are happiness benefits... I enjoy the occasional drink or two. It doesn't negatively affect my health. To be honest? If it did? I would have to weigh exactly how much, because what is the point of living an extra 10 years if those extra 10 years are miserable? Not to mention that I doubt that drinking or not drinking will make a solid impact on your lifespan one way or the other, when not combined with other actions.
Just don't make out like this is partisan. The Patriot act was the Republicans. Too many people quote that crap with the intention to imply that the Right wing is better. It's, actually, worse. This is an overall problem in the USA, and it doesn't matter who you vote for.
In the USA you can be picked up by the police for a traffic violation, put in jail with a murderer and then allowed to bleed out on the jailroom floor after having your head knocked on. Or shot while running unarmed from a police officer, or if you're a teenage kid shot in front of your parents for carrying a screw driver because the police didn't want to waste their time teaching you the lesson your parents intended. I'm not sure. There's so much more. In any event, you're more likely to be killed in the USA than just about anywhere else in the world. The poorer you are, the better your chances of being killed at any given moment.
There is no possible way to keep the government out of that. Or business that both answers to the government and it's own internal regulations. Copper and fiber are expensive, they are also physically owned objects. Unless you come up with another way to run high speed network signals, there is nothing that can be done about this. Our data is made up of electronic signals travelling down *their* wire. It's not some abstract idea, it is all real physical stuff.
Well, routable protocols need to have addresses. Addresses can be tied to individuals. It's difficult to get around no matter what you do. Everything about anonymity involves hiding anything that links your activity to your identity from the rest of the world. No routable protocol can do that, and no non-routable protocol can be the internet.
And so you get what we had here today. Which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it... I don't like it any more than you do.
'ish'??? Not so ish.. The US has that largest incarceration rate in the world. By far. You guys get 2 choices of who will rule you, and they work as a tag team purposefully switching back and forth, keeping you guys fighting each other as if you had a choice and that choice somehow made a difference.
No, the USA is the most authoritarian government in the world right now.
I think the bigger problem will be dpi. In the end, that's what Russia will use. They will identify the traffic at the source, and stop it at the ISP. Even if we manage to decentralize everything, we will have to learn to disguise packets as SSL HTTP or something like this, something that will get it past the DPI filters. I mean, right now, tor could set up (If it hasn't already) a namecoin dns. This would stop them from being able to block the DNS and download the client. From there TOR should be able to function. It's hard to say. I'm not sure about getlantern, though, they don't seem to be able to build a web page, let alone solidly code something decent:/.
They've also found ways to measure the ages of stars, etc, and you would expect some excessively old objects out there if the universe were infinitely old. Maybe. This is why we have ideas, hypotheses, theories, and natural laws. Things need to be thought up, tested, and proven. Over and over. It's annoying when people think of hypothesis as scientific fact. That's just not how science works.
No, conservatives are not for equal treatment. Class distinctions are at the core of their ideal, and the idea that one class is somehow deserving of different treatment than another class is central to that. Your argument itself shows that, since telling a vagrant he can't sleep on a bench or sidewalk is a far different thing than telling a millionaire he cannot. It sounds equal on paper, but in action it is very different. The millionaire won't care, he has a safe comfy bed to sleep in. The vagrant may freeze to death, be robbed, or murdered as a result of having to sleep someplace different. So, the treatment os as inequal as the end result. Conservatives purposefully create laws like this, because of these differences in perception of what they mean from one class to another.
Well, they will have to turn eager boys away from classes in order to make room for not so eager girls. These classes are typically difficult to get into and overfull as it is. Thus, it discourages the eager boys that are turned away. The next step is to make the classes 'easier' because the uninterested girls think they are too hard and start failing and dropping out. This law, most definitely, is not what is needed. Finding ways to spark girls' interest? A bit more inline, and important.
Yep, now imagine that combined with entangled nanobots connecting themselves to neurons. The possibilities really become endless, and space travel becomes simple, and death loses it's sting. If it works:/.
Hrm. I have the htc M8, a large gaming pc connected to 18tb, and a 50" tv mounted over the bed. I don't use my tablet at all, so I mounted it in the car as a car computer. I hardly ever use my notebook anymore, either.
Also, any people reacting and taking action without verifying that the informatiin they are acting on are most definitely at fault. However, there should, definitely, be accountability associated with presenting yourself as a 'news' source.
The difference here is not an issue of free speech, but whether or not that speech should be considered 'news'. By reporting under the classification of 'news source' there should be a level of accountability observed and respected. Otherwise, outside of that, the individuals should feel free to say whatever they wish.
Just throw classic shell on it, 8.1 is way better than 7. XP was great in it's day - as windows goes - It's day was just stretched a bit longer than it should have because Vista.
Comments like these are annoying. You state something obvious, then attribute it to a cause indirectly. The Right Wing controls as much or nore than the left. Many of the things complained about as 'government control' are obvious right wing incentives. Not saying that both sides aren't bad, but both sides are bad. Libertarian party included, since it's bought and paid for...

From what I've seen, it's a matter of hours or at most a day before the VPN companies adjust to whatever new methods are being used.
