Yes, HDMI isn't better, its just all about DRM! Per their spec: "HDMI can carry high quality multi-channel audio data and can carry all standard and high-definition consumer electronics video formats.
Content protection technology is available." I'm getting real tired of this whole encryption deal... Its OK for THEM to encrypt, but not US... and send us to jail if we DO decrypt... " do as I say, not as I do."
I guess nobody at the FBI or DOJ has ever heard of Moore's Law... compute power gets cheaper every day... so encryption methods of today will be useless tomorrow.
If you live in the US, who do you want spying on you? the Russians? or the NSA? Pick your poison...personally, as a non-combatant, I think I'd prefer the Russians as they have no legal reach to me.... but since I run a 'nix variant, I don't run any AV anyway, a non-issue for me.
Apparently, Harris makes more on their Stingray II units than these sub-assemblies for Lockheed. I'm sure the lead time on a StingRay is 7~10 working days for delivery, or overnight if you want to pay for the expedited freight. Obviously they have no scruples.
Mr. Vance doesn't need a change in the encryption, he needs a change in employees.... But seriously folks, I'm sure there are ways into these phones...too bad those methods aren't usable in court, and I bet they have already been into these phones,collected what they wanted, but haven't been able to use that info without exposing how they got it, illegally. This is their ploy to get encryption changed.
(just cuz i'm paranoid doesn't mean they aren't out to get me)
So my cable company requires a STB to get... anything. They sell me a "package",X many channels,.... oh,you need this box to watch them, and you get to rent it, forever. And, you can't buy one, or another device to replace it. Talk about a "captive audience"? they advertise 2 bazillion channels, but its a Switched Digital Video system, They have all the channels, but they only serve up one channel at a time to your box, so if you are like me, watching 6 channels a once... the lag of tearing down a session,starting up a new one for the next channel requested really ruins the whole TV experience for me In my thinking they're kinda misrepresenting things The Cable companies don't want to let go of the hardware rental business that their business plan is based on. $5.00 a month for a box, that's for Basic cable? (no dvr etc) $3.00 a month for a cable card ( yeah, they own the only mfr. of cable cards too) multiply that by every TV/device in the house and oh you need a cable wiring repair plan too...:-)
And, if there was no DMCA, we wouldn't be having this conversation... the "Fix" would have been spotted long ago. The EPA should have seen this right away... But as my father used to say, "If you can't get a Real Job, then you go to work for the government."
I'm tired of hearing the term "Law Enforcement"... What happened to "Keeping the Peace"? why must even the smallest infraction be prosecuted to the "Nth" degree of the letter of the law? This only breeds hate and discontent. Defuse! don't escalate the situation! Too many "Barney Fife's" running around,but instead of 1 bullet, its 17 rounds in a Glock...
and too,too many police agencies, I can't even think of all the three letter acronyms there are... everybody's got their own police force, and its bringing out all the amateurs, (e.g. - Tesla dust-up) so lets go back to "Peace Officers", and maybe it will change the mindset.

And that's what we have these days between the government and our so-called Public utilities,(notice I don't say OUR government,it isn't ours anymore)

We need to put pressure on ATT... no matter what ISP/phone company you may choose to use, it still goes through ATT's backbone some where in its transit to the other end of the line.... the question is who are ATT's major stockholders? and how can we pressure them?
I've had same issues when Apple items are on any mixed OS network, constant connectivity issues for all, always suspected the shiny red (white) devices as the culprit,never could prove it. this pretty much cinches for me, apparently, their network stack is almost as "F" up as M$'s is....

It all boils down to this, the policies,actions and business dealings of our government and corporations in foreign countries over the last 50 years has pissed off alot of people. These deeds were done in our name,which has caused these people to retaliate against us, the people. This has created an environment where the government feels threatened, and starts programs like this and others...started around....~1948.........(get those commies,they stole our secret) time to....? fire them all ? to be replaced by...?
1st: IANAL, but need one to interpret this, We all know the NSA is splitting and filtering the backbone in the CO's courtesy of the Patriot Act, but my recent browsing of this article: http://www.justice.gov/criminal/cybercrime/docs/ccmanual.pdf Does this suggest that the NSA is in violation of the CFAA? and did the US attorneys involved with Aaron Swartz's prosecution ever read this ? or the Bill of Rights?

You are my "internet newspaper"! Gannet's got nothing. And isc.incidents.org, my 1st 2 stops everyday..... Can't say how long its been, 1999? keep it alive!
do these units meet EPA and Federal Noise limits? Is there radar signature large enough so that FAA radar can see them? these are the questions that have legal "teeth",that can be used against their use by civilian authorities. just another abuse of the constitution....
so,this machine needs to get wiped? right? open up your spam box, start clicking everything you can find till this windows box seizes up, then tell IT as you leave, "hey, my machine has been "funny" today,might want to scan it". They will check it, nuke it, done deal....
Since they aren’t informing the Vendor so it can get patched, Are they going to take responsibility when it does get into the wild? Oh, we‘re big security company, we’re secure!
Yeah right! Show me a boat that doesn’t leak!
I love the part of the pdf that says, "If someone demands a password, refer him or her to this document or have him or her call someone in Information Security."
As we all know, a majority of the hacks/spam out there arrive to us via.CN, I'm sure someone in the US would fund Google to write some code to put.CN on another planet....CN may be a large market, but who wants to fish in a pond full of inedible fish?
Go ahead, hire them as independant contractors, or long term temporary employees,pick a "term". Remember,the wages you pay reflect how much you are buying. Are you paying "from the neck down"? Or do do you want some "brainpower " to go with it? You only get what you are paying for...
This is insane,isn't this the job of a sysadmin,protect the password? Above all else,protect the password. Just because his managerial superior demands the password,do you hand it over? Do you give the keys to your 6000 lb. Hummer to a 9 year old because he demands them?
