    Wrong.

    These guys CAN NOT TEST THE THEORY, it is IMPOSSIBLE for us to ACTUALLY test it outside of a simulator.

    THAT is the difference.

    I have. With those processors specifically. Extracting the encryption key is non-trivial but documented if you know where to look (not the processor documentation mind you (OH FACE)

    I assure you that anyone who actually knew what they were doing can easily 'decrypt' the code and nothing you've said changes what I've said, other than you think that because they've embedded it in prom on the CPU that its secure. Just because its a custom chip apple laided out doesn't mean its magically doing things that no one else figured out how to break years ago.

    You may not be able to change the key, but you most certainly can extract it.

    Anyone who freaked out over this is an idiot who knows absolutely nothing at all about security and is also to stupid to know how ignorant they are.

    Guess what ... the old 'encrypted' kernels ... they have the decryption key in the kernel for you to get and decrypt them anyway ... THATS HOW IT FUCKING READS THEM SO YOU COULD READ THE ENCRYPTED CONTENT THE ENTIRE FUCKING TIME IT WAS ENCRYPTED ANYWAY IF YOU HAD HALF A CLUE.
    AT NO POINT WAS THE ENCRYPTION PREVENTING ANYONE WHO REALLY WANTED TO FROM GETTING AT THE DATA IN THE FIRST PLACE.

    Encrypted data or code is worthless, it has to be decrypted to be used. So at no point was the data actually truly hidden.

    Its digitally signed to ensure it isn't tampered with, thats all that can be done.

    I love when they make up the rules, then tweak the numbers/simulation until they get proof of what they want to prove.

    Seriously, when you make up the math to prove your point on the fly (which is what all theoretical physics does) its not impressive for the simulation to agree with your prediction, you programed it that way!

    You aren't really changing ISPs, the City is still the ISP. They still get you connected to the Internet, but instead of directly connected to the Internet, they connect you to an intermediate, who charges you a surcharge to get to the rest of the Internet, and presumably offers you some other value added services, though for me I don't know what they would be.

    I don't use my ISP for anything other than a pipe to the Internet. I use public DNS servers because my ISP never returns NXDOMAIN, and instead gives me responses that point to their servers so they can shove ads down my throat.

    I don't use my ISPs mail server because they're stuck in 1990 and only support POP3 with some shitty quota, I learned to love IMAP before they were even an ISP ...

    So most people don't use their ISPs email, they use gmail or something else that works everywhere. I'm surely odd man by not using their DNS, but anyone with a clue avoids my ISP (TWC) name servers. But beyond DNS, your ISP doesn't do shit for you except connect one cable to another.

You personally do not get on 'the Internet' without a version of FreeBSD making it happen. I'm 100% confident that the path between me and the large NAPs is littered with FreeBSD based systems and no where between me and the major exchange points is there even a single linux box (I used to work for my ISP and know this for a fact).

    Now there are also plenty of places where Linux is involved in other businesses. But until Juniper, Sonus, Checkpoint, and all the other big guys stop using FBSD for the OS is various bits of their equipment, you will depend on FBSD and only be mildly annoyed with that little web host running Linux goes down.

    You're just another moron GPL fanboy that has no clue how the real world actually works. If you mean progressed as in 'avoided like the plague it is', then sure, GPL has succeeded.

    So actually, this proves the exact opposite of your point. GPL was not involved in this process and yet, the end goal you seem so hung up on still occurred. With software specifically licensed to NOT require that.

    Maybe, GPL is just for greedy fucktards who think their shit doesn't stink and expect that they can write a few lines of code then the rest of the world owes them anything else that ever gets done to it.

You're indian givers at best, but mostly just manipulative bastards who try to lock everyone else into the same viral bullshit.
