Imagine taking in your car for an oil change and having the manufacturer remove your car's air conditioner, radio, and half its horsepower because of fears that other hypothetical individuals might abuse their vehicles.
Awesome, Hotz' attorneys used a car analogy in their press release.
It doesn't matter. The private key is already compromised.
For two signatures in the future, with truly random values of m, you won't be able to derive the private key, but the key has already been discovered. The cat's out of the bag now... you can't put it back in.
The only way for Sony to prevent this is to revoke the signing (private) key in a system update, which would make GAMES NOT WORK. Any convoluted solution involving whitelists—like some mentioned above in this thread—don't work, because you can trivially create your own whitelist now, and sign it with Sony's actual signing key.
You just concluded 1 = 1 which is perfectly valid. The original "proof" divides both sides by (A-B), which is zero, and gets a result of 2 = 1. This is not valid because once you divide by zero, results are undefined.
Except that they don't make huge profits on hardware sales. MS wants you to buy Kinect so that you can then pay $60 per game for hopefully many games. When the Xbox was first released, they sold the hardware at a loss...
Over the past ten years the government of the USA has eroded the civil rights in your nation, and the citizens by and large have said "meh" and gone back to watching Kate Gosselin on "Dancing with the Stars." Why should India be any different?
Because most of the recent civil rights erosions in the US have been against individuals. Mess with big business and you may start seeing campaign financing conveniently disappear. RIM caved, but what would happen if Google, Microsoft, and IBM said they'd pull out of India?
While this seems like a good thing, it doesn't sound like it overrides more stringent laws in 2-party consent states like Massachusetts. Basically, this doesn't allow blanket covert recording for non-criminal purposes; state-by-state restrictions still apply.
Am I wrong?
When I started on my Ph.D., I started out majoring in AI. One of several reasons I changed to computer architecture (CPU design, etc.) is because I just couldn't stand the broken ways that people were doing stuff.
I don't get it. You left a Ph.D. program because the field was immature? Isn't the whole point of a Ph.D. program to produce something new and share it? Yeah, I get that funding might be harder than a safer field like computer engineering, but it seems like you abandoned a huge opportunity. You make it sound like you had a whole slew of new, potentially great ideas, and you just dropped them because it would be "too hard".
Using a Gutmann 35-pass wipe is like cleaning your sink with bleach, shampoo, baby wipes, ammonia, laundry detergent, insecticide, paint remover, furniture polish, glass cleaner, body wash, whiteboard cleaner, and gasoline.
It is indeed similar... in both cases, running pass 1 and 4 simultaneously will produce chemical weapons.

Close. The "clear and present danger" test was obsoleted by Brandenburg v. Ohio, in favor of the "intent, imminence, likelihood" test. See http://www.firstamendmentcenter.org/analysis.aspx?id=21677
But you're right on the whole.

No, this is a method of controlling a person in contained environment.
That's called a prison.

I know hundreds of people who've switched from PC
Hundreds? And you know them? Awesome. Now name them. All 200+ of them.

The lesson was a simple one. The offsite backup server was faster, easier and more reliable than the CDRs.
Wrong. The lesson was "Test your backup system regularly."
If only there was one for Miss Teen USA South Carolina 2007...

They might as well sell bandwidth in pints for all the difference it'd make.
It comes in pints? I'm getting one!
Not a chance. Do you have stairs in your house?

Sadly your document was not received because the validator rejected it after not finding a tag.
RISC architecture is going to change everything!
Units and app names are somehow comparable?
That's a great idea. Just sneak up on them and push the "F" key on your keyboard.
I prefer B plus Right Trigger, makes a better statement.
Here I am thinking for 2 minutes what the hell you actually did with the phone.
96,4% of them developed in C, and 3,3% using assembler
That leaves .3% that is unaccounted for. What was it written in?
Why is this +5 funny? That's over 19,000 lines... I had the same question.
