Tracking DNS searches and connections to 'bad places' that bring the black vans to your door to search your home? Ya know only reason to go there or search is if you want to commit a crime. ( sarcasm there.. for you slow people )
Since the bar is being lowered in order to shut these sites down, what is to stop them from doing this? Not much different then stopping you in a bad neighborhood and searching your car because they 'just know' you are going to be buying drugs so due process is out the window..
And if you have no processes you don't have an orgainzed business and your developers are a waste of resources doing random tasks, often time duplicating what is already there, or doing things that are not key to the business.
It works both ways ya know, everyone is a part of the larger puzzle.
Well of cousre they are, as only criminals would go there. I wonder if that will be considered 'intent to defraud' and be enough for a search warrant of your home?
Also, why is ICE involved? I would not think that would be the appropriate agency?
What crime occurred here? Fake emails and shell companies aren't exactly moral, but last i heard are legal as long as you aren't using them to defraud the taxman or something.
Unless they were using viruses to 'recruit' horsepower i don't see any legal issue here.
No matter what you are doing, be it legal, illegal, or questionable, store nothing on your laptop at all. Just use it as a remote access device, and assume its not coming home with you ( disposable ).
Or if you are going somewhere you have zero net access, truecrypt it and dump it before you head home, just in case.
I know being labeled as 'beta', but wasn't it taken from the last good source snapshot at time of the fork? If so, i would say that things are pretty stable at this point. ( or if you disagree that OO was stable, its at least as stable as the last pre Oracle OO was. )

DHS will lose all the bribes... err funding... Ya that's it..
Too late, the US Federal Government seems to have already (re)taken control.

Sigh.
Freedom -1. Government +10.

Come with us, you know too much.
No, but the 'windows startup sound' is.
And if you even do a search for such tools, it will attract the black van since you know only criminals....
It wont help in the long run, as they wont have to find out what you are doing. If you encrypt and get caught, you will be guilty of encryption alone.
It was fun while it lasted, but this is the beginning of the end for digital freedom.
We make sure they understand that it gives us that power. We also enforce passwords, even if they didn't have one on their phone before.
And like the OP says, it doesn't brick your phone so no real harm done, but it will ruin your day.
Horde as much source as you can, just in case.
Or pushed out due to unfair/illegal business practices?
I vote the 2nd.
No, his sons should be.
And forgetting games, GEM on the ST ( even in its original form ) was still more functional then MSwindows has ever been.

Give this guy a cookie, and re-elect him please.

I guess that means no java for you either :)
As rabid as the industries are now, don't be so sure about that.
While true, i have noticed a huge drop off the last few years. Its not 'dying' but i would not rely on it either.
Then you have just limited your career. But don't let me stop you, the rest of us want jobs too.
There is no reason you cant get it elsewhere and install it yourself on Fedora. That works for windows folks..
( now if RedHat started blocking or reporting installs of stuff they don't like THEN there would be a problem )
