Here's the definition of the word "TREASON", courtesy of Google:
1. The crime of betraying one's country
2. The action of betraying someone or something
I sincerely hope that Ms. Meyer isn't stupid.
I sincerely hope that Yahoo has hired a CEO who ought to be able to discern the difference between a country and a government
In fact, treason has been committed, by the current government of the United States, against the very country of the United States of America
Anyone who chose to side with the treacherous regime that is lording over the citizens of the United States of America could be, in future, charged with treason
... A list of people had to be complicit in getting these "magic backdoor" numbers into the standards. The integrity of these people is now highly questionable
This, and many other expose, can only come to light, because of the courage of a single person - Mr. Edward Snowden.
If not for Mr. Snowden, would we ever discover the phenomenon of the "magic number" ?
If not because of Mr. Snowden, we wouldn't even begin to question the integrity of those previously highly regarded "very important people".
If not for his courage, how much more damage all of us have to suffer ?
And yet, inside the United States of America, there are still people equating Mr. Snowden as though he is a traitor.
And even here in Slashdot, we have posters posting very stinging attack on Mr. Snowden.
Our country is under attack, and the attacker is our own government, but yet, there are still Americans who will do everything to help deepen the tyranny, all in the name of "patriotism".
I, an American citizen, do owe my deepest thanks to Mr. Edward Snowden, and I do hope that more of my fellow Americans should start acknowledge something very very wrong has happened to America, the country we love so much, and that we should start doing something together, to RIGHT THE WRONGS.
There have been too many comments that essentially convey the message that we, the People of America, have no power to determine our own future, and that our government, is so overwhelmingly powerful that we are ready to become their slaves, rather than stand up and oppose the tyranny.
Is America still the land of the free, and the home of the braves ?
Or has American turned into the land of the enslaved, and the home of the cowards ?
The choice is on your hand, my fellow Americans.
Either we start righting the wrongs now, or we will end up handing over to our children a country of tyranny.
Are we going to let our children suffer because of our cowardice ?
I will believe Google is genuinely against NSA's encryption breaking scheme only when Google moves ALL their servers OUTSIDE of the United States of America.
No point of talking about "upping the stakes" when the same old thing - a secret warrant demanding full disclosure - can happen anytime.
While there are people who say WIFI is okay there are evidences of plants under WIFI frequency bombardments having retarded growth, and the WIFI power is miniscule as compared to this wireless charging scheme !
What kind of super-ionization will it do to our body cells ?
Maintaining your own kernel tree over time is most certainly non-trivial by most peoples standards
Some people just had to complain about every-single-thing, even if it's downright inane.
Open source is just that, you can read the source of the programs, and with the source, you have the options to do the following :
1. Determine if the program has any backdoor / malware embedded
2. Change/alter the source to your own liking
3. Learn from the code and perhaps in a latter day you might be able to apply what you have learned in your own program (and I am not talking about cut and paste)
If all the above are STILL not good enough for you, the offerings from Apple and Microsoft are always available.
Last I heard, the Supreme Court ruled that the NSA could collect metadata and such.
The system is indeed stacked against us, the people.
From the court, to the congress, to the White House, to the law enforcement, to the press - their convergence behind the tyrannical regime spelled DOOM to the very concept of the United States of America.
I left USA more than 10 years ago due to my disgust of what had happened, and the more I see my country from afar, the more sad I'm becoming.
What the fuck is happening to America ?
Why the fuck my fellow Americans are allowing this to happen ?
But if you're chinese in china, how (aside from being a rich oligarch) are you going to use the internet at all without a firewall?
How disingenuous you want to become ?
I am a Chinese and I am an American citizen, and I do have business in China, and yes, I sometime find myself INSIDE CHINA.
But the key point is NOT what's happening in China - for China, at least, up to now, NEVER PRETEND TO BE A DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY.
China never, at least not to my knowledge, use "human rights", "democracy", "equality" and all those shit, as "weapons of publicity" to shame other countries.
On the other hand, my country, the United States of America, has been doing just that, for at least the past 5 decades.
The United States has criticized other countries, from Russia to China to Sudan to North Korea for their lack of "democracy", "human rights", "equality" (not that those countries don't deserved to be criticized") but I find it utterly hypocritical for the United States, and for YOU, to use China as the RED HERRING to shore up your inane argument FOR the current repressive government of the United States of America.
Google, Yahoo, and Facebook weren't this vocal before the Snowden Chronicles. Disingenuous bullshit from all.
Disingenuous bullshit or otherwise, where the hell is MICROSOFT ?
Maybe Google, Facebook, Yahoo are not sincere (and most probably they are not) in their latest publicity stunt, but at least, they are putting up a dog and pony show.
On the other hand, MICROSOFT's silence all these while is really deafening.
There's no constitutional or legal basis for them not releasing it
I am afraid that we are living in a world where the CONSTITUTION ain't worth a shit to those in power.
To us, the powerless the CONSTITUTION still means something - because it serves as a shield against abuse.
But to those living and working inside Washington D.C., the CONSTITUTION is anything but a mere piece of paper, as for them, POWER IS EVERYTHING.
Their subjugation of their subjects (aka, people like you and me) did not start yesterday. It started DECADES AGO, it's only now that they have gained so much power that they have become SO EMBOLDEN that they dare to publicly dis-regard the Constitution and everything that was stated inside the Constitution.
Who is to blame for it ? Them in Washington, D.C., or us, the voters who voted them in, every fucking four years, without fail ?
In response to NSA's Bullrun and GCHQ's Edgehill, Google said it has accelerated efforts to build new encryption software that is impenetrable to the government agencies
... I laugh !
As if nobody knows the cozy relationship between the founders of Google (and Google Inc. itself) and Uncle Sam.
The only way we can be sure that something that is truly important to us does not fall into the hands of NSA is to NOT put it online, period.
Before Mao ruled China, there were still a lot of ancient stone castles left in China. Today, there is nothing left, other than that long stonewall.
Similarly, the communist Chinese "reformed" the Chinese written words due to political reason.
The "simplified Chinese" was born not because it's simpler to learn, but because the Communists wanted to get rid of EVERYTHING that they thought not-conforming to their Marxist ideology.
Over 90% of the Chinese in China are from the Han tribe, and they have been using the common written form of the Chinese language ever since the Qin Dynasty (not to be confused with the qing dynasty of the 17th century), only in recent years (in the 1990's) that they found a secretive written language, handed down from mother to daughter (or daughter-in-law), has existed in the Hunan province for the past 2 millennia.
What you have said
However, this did not stop local dialects from writing their vernacular in Chinese characters
is erroneous, as the "specialized characters", such as the "mou" in the Cantonese dialect, is far too few in between to be counted as "former vernacular writing system".
Of the about 50K characters of the Chinese characters, fewer than 100 "localized vernacular characters" (among the Han tribe) have ever existed.
It's akin to the way Americans use "gotten" and "mown" instead of the Queen's language's "got" and "mowed".
Are you going to state that the American English is incompatible with the Queen's language just because of the spelling deviations ?
The Southern part of China (guandong, fujian) are populated by Chinese who still use the Tang form of Chinese Language.
In other words, the way the spoken dialect of the Southern China is being used can be traced back to the way the Chinese language was used in the Tang Dynasty.
In fact, Southern Chinese still refer to themselves as "People of Tang", as "tong yang" (for Cantonese speaking folks) and "deng lang" (for Hokkien speaking folks).
And they are not the only one using the Tang form of the Chinese language.
In the Japanese and the Korean language, and also in the Vietnamese language (mainly spoken form) there are still many traces of Tang Chinese mixed in.
For example, chopsticks.
In modern Mandarin, chopsticks are known as "kuai zi", but in Japanese as well as in Hokkien, chopsticks is written (sorry, Slashdot can't display the word here) in a character with the pronunciation as "zhu".
Those who argue that the Cantonese dialect is incompatible with the Mandarin language are either ignorant of the subject matter, or, they have some hidden political agenda.
As for me, I am an American, but I was from China.
And yes, I do speak and write Japanese, Vietnamese and Korean too.
Mandarin vs. Cantonese is completely different, as they're not mutually intelligible
There are more similarities shared by the Cantonese dialect and the Mandarin language than the Spanish language and the Portuguese language !
The two even share at least 99% of everyday idioms.
As an American whose first language is not English I always try my best to not comment on others' use of the Queen's Language, as I know there are millions of others who are much more qualified than me in the task.
I can't help but wonder what the fuck happened to the IQ level of Slashdot visitors.
On the one hand, âoeIn the future, superpowers will be made or broken based on the strength of their cryptanalytic programs,â but on the other hand the liberties of Americans are at risk by such programs.
In other words, we face a situation where the strongest, most secure nation can no longer be a nation that guarantees the rights of its citizens.
Privacy is not simply a convenience, but it is intimately linked to free speech and to the future prospects for democracy in America. Key elements of the Constitution provide a framework where incumbents can be challenged in free elections, ensuring that better ideas and better leaders will become available to guide the nation. But nobody can win an election against an incumbent with unlimited access to the communications of its rivals. We're not there yet, but the trend is in that direction.
It is high time that members of both parties in Congress get off of their high horses and address this growing threat to our democracy. Technical and legal hurdles must be cleared, and it may even be necessary to make significant changes in the way the internet works. But time passes very quickly in the technology world, and the clock has already been ticking for quite a long time."
I've actually donated to both organizations. Though the ACLU generally does much more good than the NRA.
I am an American.
I am neither a Democrat nor a Republican.
But I am a card carrying member of both the ACLU and the NRA.
The only way forward for the United States of America - if it is to remain a country FREE OF TYRANNY - is for the Americans to stand up for OUR CONSTITUTION.
We should stop dividing ourselves into splinter groups (such as left vs right, pro-choice vs pro-life, republicrooks vs democrooks, ACLU vs NRA) and should instead VOICE OUT OUR DISPLEASURE AGAINST THE TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENT WITH ONE VOICE.
It is now or never.
If we do not stand up now for our country, our children, and theirs, will suffer.
Downtown Indianapolis has a plethora of connection options. Wired, wireless, cellular, etc.
On a Friday evening it just doesn't matter. Getting online via ANY means is a joke. You're better off with IP over smoke signal. As 50,000 people (over twice the population of the city I live in and an increase in Indy's total population to the tune of about 5-6%) in the area blitz the available spectrum for wifi and cellular, while wired connections in the hotels are drowned by rooms filled to capacity and everyone sporting a laptop/tablet/etc. And it's a static population increase for those 4-5 days.
What you have described, Sir, is a problem of having not enough bandwidth on the outbound pipes connecting Indianapolis to the outside world.
The first time I encountered the above phenomenon I was at my sophomore year.
During one of the many brainstorming sessions we had with our mentor I blurb out (at that time) a very outrageous idea. The idea was so outrageous that even the mentor was visibly taken aback somewhat.
5 months down the road that mentor applied for a patent based on that outrageous idea of mine, and of course, my name wasn't appearing anywhere in the patent application.
I've had these fears for as long as I can remember.
On the other hand, I have a real fear of not remembering things that I need to remembered, and I honestly don't know how long I've forgotten I'm not remembering whatever that I need to remember.
Slashdot Mirror
May be. Finally we (USG) found a war that is going to last forever and it is war with citizens! Heee Haaa!
I hope it won't last forever, because that would be very VERY BAD for the United States of America.
I hope this war would be short, and sweet, and we get to throw all those treacherous fuckers into the big house, where they belong !
If the IETF is serious about foiling NSA's PRISM scheme, there is one item that they should add in their proposal ...

Here's the definition of the word "TREASON", courtesy of Google:
2. The action of betraying someone or something

Thank you Mr. Taco Cowboy (if that's your real name). The FBI should be visiting soon. Please hide your dogs, for their own sake.
Almost every single time I posted a comment that hits the bull's eye someone would counter it with a veil threat, like the above.
FYI, they know who I am.
I came from China, I am a naturalized citizen of the United States of America, and I am currently not living inside the U.S. of A.
In my younger days, I also was involved in some (still secret) military programs.
They have my dossier. They know where I am.
If they want to take me down, they can, any time.
But I am not important. I am expendable.
What is important is the future of my country, the United States of America.
As I said, I came from China, I had had first hand experienced the terror of Tyranny, with a capital "T".
What I, and millions of my former comrades in China had suffered through, I would NOT want you guys in America to go through.
The terror of Tyranny is much more than any Hollywood movie could ever convey.
Go ahead, threatening me more, if that is the thing that makes you feel good.
I have gone through the baptism of hell back when I was in China, death is nothing to be afraid of.
As I said, I am expendable, but the United States of America is not.
This shit is evidence that this country has *already* been taken over (from within and without)
Isn't it time we, the American Citizens, take back our own country from those fuckers ?
How much longer should we let those fuckers to ruin our country ?
How much longer do we want to be fooled by those fuckers ?
How much longer can our country last, under those fuckers ?

Although entrepreneurship can go very VERY FAR, it still needs to follow what the balance sheet tells it to do.
After all, businesses survive/thrive purely because of profit, and no business can engage in loss-making endeavor for too long.
