Switch to *nix, instead of fixing them 6 days a week they work.
Kidding, kidding before you decry me as a *nix zealot though I do use it regularly, I find that neither OS is 1 size fits all. There are things I love in nix and things I love in Windows barring Windows 8 of course. I never let it update without looking over what it wants to push.
And you are right since MS isolated Session0 it has been much tougher for me to find a compromised system on my network as long as users don't run with elevated privies. If an infection does get it, blow out the user account recreate and a reboot and it's clean.
Any administrator worth their weight doesn't let MS be rogue and update itself. You never know when KB-OMGWTFISTHIS will be incompatible with Driver_l()()t_d()()d.
I'm too lazy to RTFA, where exactly did Netflix come into play? Is my Roku running silverlight? As far as I know I don't have silverlight running on any of my devices.
Here's a thought, I ditched my cable provider and went with Netflix and sharing media on my computer with my tv to not have to be bombarded with ads. FULL STOP
The crux though is you are using their services, I expect things like that. What I do not expect is watching say something from my Samsung BR player that is shared from my computer getting uploaded back to Samsung.
I don't live in Boston but I can tell you in my area, way smaller than Boston some officers do drive their patrol cars home.
I know this from seeing them parked in their driveways. We do have foot patrols in certain areas, we even have a mounted division on horseback in certain areas.
Yes police still patrol on foot. While an officer in a cruiser can patrol a larger area, driving in a car you may miss something a foot patrol would spot.
My guess if that witness/informant/source didn't want to be seen talking to police they sure as hell wouldn't jaw jack for 3/4 of an hour in plain sight with them.
There's a nifty little device that let's people communicate without the general public knowing who you are talking to, it's called get this, a telephone ZOMG! Not only that but if they use a pay phone it goes a bit further to prevent listening in.
Perhaps we should extend this to any government official. Make them wear a GPS device on their person that at any time the general public can track their every move.
First yes the gun may be undetectable but there are a few things it needs to be able to fire that are detectable. There needs to be a spring for the firing pin, the pin itself may be plastic but needs some type of device to make it detonate the primer cap. The bullet casings are also metal and will set off detectors.
So no Senator Idiot, what you have that is undetectable is a useless model of a gun. It would be more dangerous to print a 3d knife and sneak it in somewhere.
I'm American and if your statement was true my 401k that is largely in foreign markets would have tanked when the banks collapsed and the stock market took a shit. Instead it nearly tripled in one quarter.
Says to me the worlds monetary system is not US-centric.
"Can someone explain to me the benefit of an internet kill switch?"
Media blackout. A populace ignorant of goings on is easier to control.
"And how DHS is the appropriate department for its implementation?"
Fact is there should be zero reason for an internet kill switch in the first place. There should be zero critical systems internet facing, which makes the argument to protect against terrorist attack to our infrastructure and critical systems moot. Which leads me to believe the only reason for one is to control the population, or rather control the data the population has access to, read media black out.
DHS nor any department should have need for it's implementation, nor should any department control it should one actually exist.
This right here is the best reason I can come up with to remove US control over any portion of the net, this includes hosting and services located in the US.
And yes I am an ashamed American, ashamed of what my country has become.

So you're saying "How to destroy a good company?", install Windows as the OS?

What a fucking liberty.

To some degree yes, but dispatch only knows a patrol area not exactly where a unit or officer is in that patrol area.

That description is 100% the Jeremy I knew back then as well. I parted ways with him when his motives behind HTS became clear.

How about posting the real reason he was given such a stiff penalty!
This isn't his first hacking charge nor his first run in with police.
His rap sheet is as long as my arm, with charges ranging from hacking and using stolen credit cards to assault. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeremy_Hammond#Arrests_and_criminal_history
My guess is this harsh sentence stems from the Stratfor hack as well.
Death to MING!
NULL or 4chan.
Your choice.
I think when you throw in a sports star your credibility gets divided by zero.
What planet do you live on?

I have a lot of wrath for my government.
How long do you think it will take for someone to hack it and allow them to use whatever battery?
Look how long the much ballyhooed Bluray DRM took to get cracked.
Not to mention I wasn't aware Renault still made cars.

How does your proposed solution account for phone calls to ISP's ordering them to shut down.
Let's just hope Jen doesn't drop the internet box.
Plausible deniability.
I change whatever website I'm on when I want to see better facials.
