However, given our tools are all limited to 4 dimensions, it makes sense that there could be phenomena that is unobservable in our universe yet occurring in those other unexperienceable dimensions.
Unfortunately, "douches" sometimes tell the truth. I tend to doubt the allegations, but I can see that they still must be investigated. Since OpenBSD is a public, Free Software project, the investigation must be public.
That's a denial, not a refutation. While I am inclined to believe Jason, a refutation would contain proof (or at least strong evidence) of the falsehood of the allegation. That is something that is going to take time to produce.
...resetting the password requires only my username, SSN, ZIP code, and last name. And there are far, far more people who know that stuff than people who know my password.
Couldn't you classify software backdoors that exist on your property as quartering government property on your own, a violation of the third amendment.
You could, but you'd be laughed at if you tried to take such a silly claim to court.
Don't be an ass. Professional confidentiality is not the same as an NDA contract, and he didn't claim that all such agreements expire after ten years in any case.
Suggestion: Free Software projects might want to implement explicit independent reviews of cryptographic software. There may not be enough cryptographically-skilled eyes to make deliberately-inserted malicious bugs of this sort shallow.
You forget pharmaceutical companies (hemp and marijuana would have a major impact on their bottom line...
Yes. They'd make money selling them.
...for a lot of old standbys...
Please identify which "old standbys" (which are usually out of patent and produced by a zillion companies at razor-thin margins) marijuana would compete with.
...so-called "rehab centers", and, let's not forget, our privately-owned prisons.
Both those businesses are far too small to have significant political impact. There is only one significant lobby pushing for more drug laws: the natcops themselves. However, the sad fact is that we still have stupid drug laws because the population wants them.
What the hell does it matter which password I use for a throwaway comment account on some website? Honestly. Oh noes, someone guessed my password...and...logged in as me? Big deal.
The "big deal" is that the site admins will now have to deal with the resulting comment spam.
Wasting your brain power to create/remember a good password for it is foolish.
I find that typing "pwgen -s" and copying one of the random passwords that result requires very little of my brain power. Your brain may vary.
Of course, I also write down all of my passwords[1]...
[1] Except my GPG passphrase, of course. That has never been written down anywhere.

Tell them your mother's maiden name is ct!h0Zf&.
And there's a microphone concealed in the headboard of your bed, too.
We have no evidence of such a backdoor: just a questionable allegation.

Are subscribers also able to killfile users? If so I just might subscribe.
Use a unique random string as a username.
In other words, you still watch television.

Is the auditing being done by a completely seperate, unrelated, and independent group?

If I made a deal to keep a secret for five years I keep it for five years.
Don't be an ass. Professional confidentiality is not the same as an NDA contract, and he didn't claim that all such agreements expire after ten years in any case.
> There was never any OpenBSD contributor named Scott Lowe.
I don't see where Perry claimed that there was.
> I'm wondering why after all these years, no one caught it?
Perhaps because it isn't there? All we have at this point is an allegation.
It isn't totally your fault. It is also the fault of the Slashdot editor who didn't bother to read the article.
Theo did no such thing. Perry did.

It isn't a "mimetic polyalloy". It's balonium.
...so why do you want CGI to continue to be intrusive?
Yes. They'd make money selling them.
