Chmod? Something like fswatch? Mailx? If you want to monitor the file system, folders, or an individual file, there's quite a few ways and programs to do that and have an email sent via something like mailx. Welcome to the 21st century M$. I just hope this isn't onemore step closer to total control over what you can and can't do. I'm also pretty sure there's a few firewalls for Linux that do more than just "internet" and include in-system stuff too. What the hell took them so long? Mac has something like this in their built in firewall stuff for years too.
If they can't play video games or Skype, which should be a terrifying thought to have a Window$ run camera starring at you, then they bitch. IT bitches because Window$ keeps them employed. Log on to a social network on Window$? Fuuuuuuu@&$....that. If it's free it must suck is the typical Micro$oft user motto. Freemium and FOSS are not the same thing. Some donate blood, others donate software; it's that simple. Unfortunately, most open source is going towards web development instead of the desktop. I know belittling doesn't help, but you can only throw so many obvious reasons to switch to Linux in all the M$ users' faces before it starts to look like a pandemic case of severe denial. It's kind of like a cult that slowly sips the Kool-Aid instead of all at once, only to join another for a different flavor of the same poison. Most of my computers are old as hell and they all run Linux with the latest 32-bit version of the kernel (some are PAE to get 4GB+ access) with up to date software I didn't have to pay a dime for. If I tried to run Window$ instead, they'd all be nothing but diseased-ridden paperweights, just something to heat up the room during the Winter and pray they stay out of my router.
A lot of vegetarians can't handle meat without getting sick because their body stops producing enzymes to help digest it. A lot of people are going to get sick and confirmation bias kicks in. It will be the new MSG.
The U.S. Navy develops Tor and the Airforce, as well as several other agencies use LPS to log into places. You'd think the UK navy would be smart enough to not use Window$ anything. But, this is coming from a country that wants backdoors in everything. One country's bug is another country's feature, I guess.
You cannot expect there to be no insects just because it's indoors. Nature finds a way. This will do more harm than good. And, you know they'll charge more for something that tastes fake. I'll take a tomato with a couple of bug bites from the actual outdoors before I'd eat that air conditioned robo crap.
Source code for Window$ leaks and people freak like it's going to be used for exploits. A little late for that, don't you think? Yet, Linux developers release their code intentionally as open source and typically, the complete opposite happens.
They might pull crap in California or New York, but I've never seen a chiropractor recommend scented candles, hugs, or witchcraft. Just a few adjustments here and there for about half an hour as needed and send you out the door. All a doctor is going to do, if they don't schedule a chiropractor, is prescribe you an opiod. Pharmaceutical companies are getting pissed at alternative medicine and you wouldn't believe how many of them are forking the bill for these "studies" and conferences to descredit people. I don't condone this personally, but here's an example with Marijuana: https://theouterlinux.com/2016.... Yes it's on my site, but I like to keep an open mind if the arguments are sound. In a nutshell, people are switching to medical marijuana instead of opioids and fighting that battle has become a lost cause for pharmaceutical companies. Some zeitgeist work out for the better, most for the worst. So now, pharmaceutical companies are attacking every alternative out there. To their credit though, A LOT of alternatives are "snake oil" and having the the purest form of a drug, even if synthetic, rather than from tree bark, is much better for you.
The math is about right, but I think I wrote the ratio wrong. Maybe. 4.5g Paper / 2.867g Glue = 1.570g of Paper for every 1g of Glue. You know what...maybe a 2:1 does make sense because you could have 4.5g of Paper and 2.25g of Glue and still cover the whole sheet and have a 2:1 ratio. My bad. I was half awake, nodding off, when I wrote this.
Ten tons of paper and five tons of glue is what the article says. A single sheet of A4 paper weighs about 4.5 grams. The FDA supposedly has a few adhesives that are safe for food. I don't quite know the chemical makeup, but it's probably similar to polyvinyl acetate that Elmer's glue uses. Polyvinyl acetate has a mass of 1.19 g/cm^3. A sheet of A4 paper has a surface area of 236.22 cm^2 and a thickness of about 0.0102 cm, ergo a total volume of 2.409 cm^3. This is 2.867 grams of glue per sheet if the glue were applied at the same thickness as the paper. A sheet of A4 weighs 4.5 grams. That's a 1.570:1 ratio and not 2:1. And because you know the glue surface would be thinner that the paper, that ratio would be even smaller. It doesn't make sense to be using that much glue is what I'm getting at.
The problem is defining what a "smart phone" is. I'm typing this response on my "smart typewriter." If it passes, there will probably be a list. On that list will be the higher-dollar phones because to many regular consumers, that makes sense but would really be a marketing tactic. Kids want what they can't have, so let's make sure they want the expensive ones. The government could use the FCC to define what a smart phone is; so far, they seem to recognize Andriod, iOS, Blackberry, and Windows Phone. Can you imagine a "phone dealer" on street corners? Reminds me of how the Soviets used to ban Western stuff. I do find it a little too ironic that Slashdot has a poll on what smart phones should be called and then this issue shows up. Lets face it, the concept of a "smart phone" never really had anything to do with the phone, but making people feel like what they had was "dumb," and kids are going to feel dumb for not owning one. Manufacturers utilize the Summer season for kids to miss school friends, then return to school in the Fall to see all the new cell phones, and then comes the begging for a smart phone at a birthday or Christmas; most birthdays are in August and god help anyone with multiple kids.
Obviously, you have the spools to look at, but the point is that most cyber security concerns can easily go away by not upgrading to a new system that no lay-person knows how to use every few months, especially IoT stuff. It's geeks trying to look special by having the latest tech only they know how to use, but are secretly YouTubing how to use it all. Because, we all know the hot girl in the office is clearly a sapiosexual. Dance monkeys DANCE! Besides, it's frightening how many places use the default login and password for stuff and the millions of identities stolen because of it. I'm probably going to tell this wrong since I haven't heard the story in a while, but I knew a guy that could get into a particular hospital's PowerShell and change file permissions. That's the kind of security work he did for a living. He called their IT department to warn them to change their setup, but they snickered and said they knew about it. There's your cyber security gap. The narcissistic laziness of the average "work smarter, not harder" IT guy and when you can't bedazzle with brilliance, you baffle with bullshit. An interesting example is one from 1962 to 1977 in which the combination to a nuke's PAL was 00000000, and I guess someone thought it was funny to have most BT devices default password as 0000.
I guess 13 year olds magically have money and cars now to go to the store and buy smart phones. Oh wait, they don't. If you can't tell them no, then you tell them hell no. You're not their friend, you're their parent. Now regarding the burner phone slipping into a Bill idea mentioned, that's an actual possibility when retailers have to ask who you're buying the phone for. They make you show a drivers license for phones that have no contracts like Straighttalk, and that eliminates the point of the phone for some people. Your name is now associated with the device. Though, this may encourage more "dumb" phones in the market which will ironically be a much better burner phone.
I'm looking, but there's no N$A option either. Is there something else I'm supposed to sign up for? Download? *Panics* DO MY APPS AND API NOT PLEASE YOU MA' LORDSHIP?!!! "100 Hail Micro$ofts and be on your way pleb!" Mark makes a Z motion in the air with his hand.
It's available via web and on mobile devices, including iOS 8 if you have an older phone. You get 500 MB storage free, uses two passwords (one for account and one for mailbox), and the providers themselves cannot recover your mailbox passwords. You can tag your emails, make folders, identifies spam, and has an easy way to report bugs/features. They also have a bounty program for hacking with no success and are protected by Swiss privacy laws. It was made by CERN and MIT. The servers are located in a bunker 1000 meters below the Swiss Alps that use end-to-end encryption and 4096-bit SSL certificates. No cloud hosting and they manage their own stuff. https://protonmail.com/securit... The only problem is that it uses Azure. I'm not an M$ at all, but it's either this or Enigmail with Thunderbird and Protonmail is very easy to use and the customer support is awesome whether you're a paying member or not.

The author of curl denied entry by airport employees that were informed...probably by curl. Think about it.

I'm really curious if anyone has tested ReactOS for security.

So, I guess they are now actively after everyone.

Could you imagine trying to rig that up like they have in planes or busses?

I did too. It's called a "Freudian Slip" or " parapraxes."
Oh damn....thanks for pointing out that patent they approved. I didn't think of that. That's twisted. https://www.theverge.com/2017/...
Just use chicken wire like a Faraday cage and don't have public wifi.

My bad on the Azure thing. I got it confused with Tresorit.
