Anyone who used FileVault encryption on their Mac prior to Lion, upgraded to Lion, but kept the folders encrypted using the legacy version of FileVault is vulnerable. FileVault 2 (whole disk encryption) is unaffected.
So only certain configurations, and relatively few at that.
It's just a matter of time before the US acts like the other dictatorships and jails people for liking something. Oh, you liked that? Off to Gitmo with you!
Actually, this country was built by rich and educated local leaders (elites, if you will), who were the doctors and lawyers of the country. They already had the respect and trust of the population, seeing as they were the aristocracy of the time.
While many were amateur politicians, the truth was that many had served in local pre-existing legislatures and were sent as senators or ran for higher office.
Yet more proof that the Tea party crowd has no grasp of actual history (though they have a romanticized fictional version).
The problem is that the GOP has become quite intrusive, and Obama had to move to the right on the issue so as not to be called a weak traitor. It used to be that the GOP was the party of civil liberties (heck, Bush campaigned against Clinton's "secret evidence" laws), but under Bush it all fell apart post-9/11.
Today the Republicans practice a shell of their civil liberties campaign; Ashcroft made sure that the mandatory background checks to buy guns were shredded (to protect the privacy of gun-owners), but insisted on collecting every other form of data. Obama is just following along, since he doesn't want to be blamed if a terrorist attack happens on his watch.
The only thing that would shake things up would be if Romney decides to campaign on actual civil liberties (and not this phony "war on Christmas" or "war on Christians" crap). Obama has boxed himself in, let's see if Romney uses the opening and campaigns for an end to warrantless espionage.
Do you watch any daytime court shows? Judge Judy, People's Court, etc? Half the cases involve the story: we were friends, I gave her money, we broke up, we now dispute the deal we made since we didn't have it in writing.
They don't ask you to sign an NDA because they don't trust you on hiring you, but that if years later your relationship goes sour you have some protection from real damage. It's insurance, not an expectation you'll betray anyone.
AT&T says they'll unlock iPhones that are no longer under contract, to customers who are in good standing. Yes, your iPhone is either out of contract, or you may have upgraded to a newer iPhone. Either way, the 3GS is most likely eligible to unlock
Actually, the people who are against homosexuality in public generally aren't crazy about any open sexuality to begin with. These are the same groups who claim there's too much porn in mainstream TV
The FFA isn't exactly a real organization. They appear to be one single man with a website, who sent letters to Viacom threatening to boycott the advertisers over an episode of Degrassi which delt with LGBT issues in school, and sent letters to TLC threating to boycott the advertisers unless they cancelled the reality show "All-American Muslim" for, and I'm not making this up, only showing non-terrorist Muslims living in America. The controversy over the latter actually got them more attention than they deserve, and many people on the Far Right signed up for their mailing list.
A security system is only as strong as its weakest link. For example, this is why they screen pilots, even though they are the ones who control the plane. In the past there have been incidents where someone with a pilots ID skipped security and hijacked a Fedex plane in the US, so now they closed that loophole. You make a line where people skip the checks, and now the entire system is weakened
Why are they saying Iran did it? Are they saying the country's leadership ordered it rather than a bunch of script kiddies? If anything, wouldn't it be more accurate to say Iranians did it than the country itself? It seems/. keeps lumping countries together, as if all China pirates or hacks etc.
Actually at my university they're growing in popularity. Harvard and Yale med schools have already given each student an iPad and electronic versions of the notes/slides
As the movie Contagion pointed out on a side note, telecommuting will skyrocket in the event of a pandemic or any kind of incident like it. It briefly shot up after 9/11 when people were afraid to fly.
It's not just the candidate and his policies, but you also inherit his whole machine with it. Will the president stuff the CIA and State Department with neocons like Bush did, or more pragmatic reasoned people like Obama did?
How about Facebook's Actual Law Enforcement Contact page with guidelines. It seems facebook does waive these requirements sometimes, such as when "responding to a matter involving imminent harm to a child or risk of death or serious physical injury to any person and requiring disclosure of information without delay."
Having a state religion in the Constitution does not mean it will lead to theocracy. Greece has a state religion, and aside from repeatedly denying Muslims the right to build a mosque in Athens, it seems relatively tame. Afghanistan is a poor example; you're dealing with a country with massive illiteracy; once that is alleviated the country will improve.
Democracy is not the same as "Liberal democracy." However, you can be optimistic, we're already seeing international pressure working in countries like Uganda, after the US and Europe forced the government to put aside its 'capital punishment for gays' law.
With countries like Libya, all democracies start off rocky. The first decade of American independence was especially difficult, with famous incidents like Shays' Rebellion making most of the world doubt the US would hold together. Wait until they draw up a constitution (later this year) and start enforcing rule of law after elected officials are put in place.
It wasn't founded to support tyranny, but to setup a system for cooperation and world stability. Whether a country was a dictatorship or not was considered "Internal Affairs" and by mutual agreement ignored temporarily to solve the then-bigger issue of regional wars.
Is your criticism really the case anymore? According to Freedom House, in 2007 there were 123 electoral democracies (up from 40 in 1972). According to World Forum on Democracy, electoral democracies now represent 120 of the 192 existing countries and constitute 58.2 percent of the world's population. That's not including the new democracies from Iraq, the Arab Spring, independence of Kosovo, and South Sudan, etc. That's a huge amount of progress.
I'm going by a common epidemiological method of displaying data. You're getting hung up on something that a first-year epidemiology student already can solve. Please check a textbook; I'd give you a link but they aren't posted online except behind paywalls.
You are the one claiming there's some hidden number of vaccine deaths based on faulty correlation/causation claims. The burden is on you to prove it; rather than on me to try to prove a negative.
I never said there was "no such thing as vaccination-related death," indeed they do happen in rare cases; allergic reactions, attenuated vaccines reverting to wild-type, and liver reactions. During the swine-flu vaccinations in the 1970s there were cases of Guillian-Barre syndrome. They are all pretty rare, to the point where the CDC gets involved with most to see if there's any cluster or pattern. Factors like this are the reason the AMA and AAFP have broken from WHO guidelines and recommend the IPV (polio vaccine) rather than the more convenient OPV vaccine that the rest of the world uses. There were a small number of babies who developed polio and polio-like symptoms from the attenuated vaccine, prompting a switch to a less-effective and shorter-lasting but safer IPV instead.
There is a massive amount of surveillance for such a low-risk outcome. In the last few decades there's a huge wealth of vaccine mortality data in the medical journals. The few adverse reactions from vaccines are still less than the morbiditiy and mortality coming from the actual diseases. Again, I'd give you links to the actual research data but they are behind a paywall unless you have electronic access to a medical library (Perhaps I can suggest the Penn and Teller TV show "Bullshit" episode on vaccines, you can find it online easily). The data speaks for itself.
This is why I don't bother arguing with uninformed people on this topic, I get insults from people like yourself who think they know better than the experts because of google.

At present, there are none in this program.

Still too many points of weakness. What's to stop someone from stealing a passport and going through the low-security line as them?
Depends, are we in Uganda?

Tunisia has a caliphate? Since when did they organize a massive worldwide shura and elect a new Amir-ul-Mumineen? I must have missed the invitation.
What an odd accusation for Anonymous to make. The Muslim world hasn't had a caliph since 1924.
The "having you killed" suggestion is overblown, but I'm sure the TSA could realistically add you to No-Fly lists, just because.

And many Americans would say that burning an American flag should be illegal worldwide.

20 years ago? Apple was pretty different back then, Jobs wasn't in Apple during that suit.
