Don't get me wrong. I think Obama is a worthless pig fucker, but what he is proposing seems reasonable here. My bigger fear is the hidden addon items and agenda that isn't being spoken about.. You know the CISPA 2.0 sort of sneak in the back door verbiage. I imagine this is a 750 plus page document. with all sort of power being grabbed.
I'd rather have it owned by taxpayers/municipalities or the people than the government. Not entirely unlike BLM land. Public broadband of the people for the people and by the people.
Isn't that precisely what is being proposed by Obama? To eliminate those sanctioned monopolies and to prevent state laws which seek to prevent civic or competitive broadband projects.
Actually, there are many non compete clauses in cable fiefdoms. This would allow for pole access, and competition in areas where there cannot be one, and or it it is slowed at every turn due to red tape and ground/pole contracts. NYC would benefit greatly by getting verizon out of he way.
How exactly is the first gesture to "get the cameras attention" an improvement as you state? Are you saying that the previous implementations didn't have gestures to initiate an action/response?
Are you saying that Verizon has no say in updates and applying them? You didn't follow the Galaxy Nexus debacle where updates were not released for a Nexus phone until 4-6 months after the rest of the world got them?
Google Isn't Apple. The US gives way too much power to the carrier/OEM's.
Google can release all the patches it wants, but until Verizon tests them all and makes it's own changes it will not ever push them to the device.
Blame whoever you would like. If google had the power to push out updates to all devices running android, then there would be nothing holding devices back from running stock.
Google has no legal option to update your OS in the US. Somehow Apple managed to get that secured, but Android updates come from the phone manufacturer (same as Apple does) but inthe hands of Verizon?At&T you cannot upgrade your phone, and google cannot. The manufacturer can, but they need to have carrier intervention and testing etc.
My nexus 2013 is running well even perfectly after a full wipe. Secondly, IS google to blame that Verizon has the rights to withhold updates and patches until they do their own testing?
Google can't push out updates to the handsets. The carriers by law mandated that only they can update and test the devices. You as a citizen and owner of the device cannot do this yourself either. But sure Google is at fault.
It is an IP address. If they cannot muster proof that the attack and IP's are incontrovertible proof, then all the posturing about NK attacking the US is BS. Would you go to war based off of data on an invisible enemy?
I've not seen anything that the government has released regarding this. I have heard speculation that this was North Korea, but haven't been shown any actual evidence. So to your questions answer: I'd need evidence. IP logs, exploits used written in proprer north korean grammar or something. Anything other than Comey and Clapper saying it was them the bad koreans... they did it.
The trust of the intelligence community was proven to be broken repeatedly by the FBI/DOJ/FISA/NSA/CIA/IRS. Blind faith isn't an option any longer. Proof or it didn't happen.
Steve Jobs had nothing to do with BeOS. Steve was involved with NeXT. Gasee was involved with Macintosh development, who then left the company and wanted 200 million for BeOS so the board at Apple found it cheaper to buy NeXT and there was a doorway for Steve to return to Apple.
Having the transactional currency controlled and flowed through a single institution removes the benefits that something like a Bitcoin brings to the table. The point was no central point of control because every currency gets bent to someones advantage.
People viewing the way SONY wanted to neuter DNS and the visibility of awful collusion in the movie industry towards attacking Google and free speech hasn't gone entirely unnoticed. Serves them right is stronger now than it ever would have been.
For what you are saying to be correct they could have used robots.txt. They did not do that. The other facet that contradicts your comment is that the payment was mandatory. A news publication, blog or anyone cannot choose not to mandate the payment. So forward thinking next generation news sites cannot decide their own model. If these sites are so concerned about remaining profitable by the money Google was preventing them from gathering they could put up a pay wall as well. Oh wait no one is going to pay these cronied sites for their news, because it isn't valuable.
You and your premonitions are worth doodelysquat... There are congressional members who are given info to over see the NSA and they are quite vocally denouncing the excesses of the NSA. You might also realize at some point that other members of the NSA are leaking the abuses..If you and your premonitions know more than CIA leaders/NSA leaders and congressional over site members then we are doomed. Luckily your premonitions are worthwhile to anyone but with a brain little enough to think you might have something useful to add.
There are plenty of people who can take authority. They can defund the NSA. They can disband the NSA. They can add new layers of oversight to the NSA> Just because they haven't doesn't mean there is no one who can./ Remember they did defund the TIA in early 2000's... Then they allowed it to side step and rename itself and begin operating anew. I think legally at this point, if defunded to resume operation under a new name would be seen as the complete refusal to operate within the charters it was held to.
Surprised? No... Concerned that US Citizens are being illegally monitored in their communications by the NSA? Yes... This is illegal monitoring of people who pose no threat to the US or their citizens. Monitoring them without a valid warrant with a description of what the threat they pose is is illegal.
What are the exact ways into an encryption released in open source Android, where the key is offered in TNO security, which Google never sees? I get the hypothetical, but what back door do they have if the OS is compiled from source by the end user?
Android isn't sold. It is open source. There is no sale of the OS which occurs. PGP already fought the battle about legal distribution of a means of encryption.
There is an encrypted Whats App. Secondly it hasn't been common practice to encrypt all data on closed fiber systems thinking this sort of thing wasn't occurring. Seeing that the fiber interconnects are tapped complete encryption of all data is something that some companies are working on implementing.

We were very confident in building up weapons of mass destruction claims to provoke an excuse for war with Iraq.
Turns out faulty evidence was faulty. My theory is if they can't share evidence that is proof then they can't go to war.

Tell that to Greece and Russia. Are they both small countries?
