According to Edward Snowden, the feds have the capability to get into the phone already. I'm not surprised by this at all, it's so obviously a power grab to set precedent and feed the backdoor to local police so they can start sending drug dealers to jail even more frequently. This is a really scary story, has anyone ever seen anything like this? They're basically breaking down the door and demanding compliance. Fuck everything about this.
Hi there,
It's a shame everyone is just telling you not to use it, instead of being somewhat helpful. I am but a simple sysadmin and am too much of a burnout to do any development work, but have you checked out Microsoft's online resources? It looks like the Microsoft Virtual Academy at least has some info on the subject: MSVA
The SDK is available on Windows Dev Center -- I don't know what you've looked through yet, but I don't think there's going to be a silver bullet for this one. Try to hobble along with MS Virtual Academy and the Devel blogs until someone releases a book/guide with everything you need.
Yeah, so this is just an app, it's not exactly built into iOS9. Also, what happens when joe-shchmo installs this and realizes it makes their browsing a whole lot slower, tells all of their friends it sucks and no one uses it. People are better off with a strong VPN client anyway.
My god, what the fuck SourceForge. You used to be so good! Now you're packing in shitware with popular open source projects? Filezilla, now nmap, seriously?
Github is the obvious choice, but will no one stand up and create a front end to make it a little more end user friendly, or create a SF clone that doesn't ever mess with the projects they host? I realize this is a costly endeavour, but SF must be stopped:/
Yes! Thank you, I won't shed a single tear, but instead hope that they're shut down for a lot longer than they expect. Fuck Sony in their stupid asses. Yes, Rootkit, prosecution of George Hotz and countless other fuckups remind me that Sony is just getting what they deserve.
Yeah, I hadn't read the source article until today. I chuckled a bit when they mentioned the services they offer that could help mitigate this threat.
I'm sure several companies that have monitoring, pen-testing and other paid services are spooging their pants right about now. I'm sure that the story is legitimate, they may not be exaggerating, just letting their readers know that for a price, they're here to help:)
This is great, if my coworkers weren't already middle aged technophobes who need help using copy and paste, I would set something like this up. It's probably good they don't know enough to be dangerous.
I loved reading the comment that whats-his-face was going to "wipe out" twitter and that he didn't care what the international community thought-- he was just asking to get circumvented. Oh well, hopefully we don't see a complete drop in Internet communications for the whole country, like we did in '11-'12. With any luck we'll get less oppressive/corrupt regime's when they learn they can't censor the Internet as well as they thought they could.
You'd think that Comcast would segment the public wifi traffic from your LAN traffic. You know, that would be the smart thing to do...
Do they do this? I have no idea. I got tired of reavering my neighbors and gave in to paying for Comcrap late last year. Fortunately I'm in such a remote location, I doubt they'll ever enable this feature in a town with two stop signs and a grave yard.
I was hoping someone would go there with the whole Mission Accomplished. I was actually hoping for a shop of Edward on the aircraft carrier, then I remembered this isn't reddit.
In the coming years gamers won't have a reputation for being fat, instead they will all be athletic mounds of muscle after chasing down enemy soldiers and dodging alien laser fire.
I, for one am a long time Apple computer hater. I don't understand their appeal, or the Apple Tax(tm) and would never pay money for one of their laptops or desktops. That being said, I fucking love their mobile hardware. I got an iPhone 3Gs shortly after they were released and got all the non-S versions on launch day since. I bought an iPad 1 shortly before the 2 came out, not being familiar with Apple's release schedule... kicking myself a bit, I still really enjoyed the light form factor for doing webby stuff from bed or the couch. Now that my iPad 1 is showing serious signs of aging, I'm definitely looking forward to buying either a Mini with retina or go all in for an iPad Air.. These tablets are just really well made, and although I love open source and linux, I just can't stand using any version of Android. It just turns me off, I'm not sure if its the UI or.. what, I just don't like the feel of Android on a phone or a tablet.
The closer and closer these tablets come to paper thin the more excited I become. Time to pawn off some household items to drop $500 on just the baseline model of the iPad Air...
Yeah, I'm sure we'll all be blocking this shit out once it is deployed. Unfortunately, without a jailbroken or otherwise modified phone/tablet, you wont be able to block them when on a mobile device. Hopefully this will start the ball rolling on a mass exodus to some other network.

2016 = year of the linux desktop.
After the adblocker came the anti-adblocker blocker script, and it was good.

yeah guy, you tell 'em!
Doesn't Adblock/Plus whitelist companies that pay them?

All that stuff is easily disabled... and it'd be even easier in Linux.
So.... we can take whatever isn't bolted down?
Just wanted to say great signature and have you seen Mozart In The Jungle?

You sound upset, maybe you need to get in your BMW and go visit your supermodel girlfriend for some comfort.
There's always Cmder too ===> http://gooseberrycreative.com/cmder/
At least he won't have trouble with paying for all of the legal fees he's about to incur :)
Will you still leak me, will you still teach me, when I'm siiixxxty four.

Hehe rub things out in OneNote, so you can paste porn in there too?
