If it's classified as a weapon, it is covered by ITAR and can't be easily exported. So other nations can't install one of their own from a regulated vendor (country) and block attacks from Pentagon cyber warfare systems or probes by the NSA.
Yes, more or less. The "big-business" stuff, I can handle. There's a profit motive and when they discover that there's no money to be made, they'll move on.
The stuff I worry about is based on other motives which people may not recognize as quickly. Our neighborhood has been the occasional target of several spear phishing attacks. Purportedly about security, police activity and local crime, we have received some carefully crafted personalized e-mail that turns out to originate from phony domains, set up with false local identification but from out-of-state origins. There are no obvious services being sold or evil links to click.
In my case, I am fortunate to have occasional contact with federal law enforcement (due to security clearances). When I mentioned the oddball e-mail at a recent review, I was told that there was an ongoing investigation into some domestic groups related to it. And not to click the links or in any way reply to the messages. That's fine in my case, but what about my poor neighbors who think that, because they are not being sold something, it must be OK?
Reasonable advice mainly because of security issues (open relays and other misconfigurations). But private servers, or anything peer-to-peer are anathema to your companies business model. So I'd take that advice with a grain of salt.
if I don't make the new book, I might burn in hell forever.
And this is one of the biggest arguments about all religions. They divert energy and resources from work or study with value to wasting time worshiping imaginary sky fairies.
Very few people in Europe could read Greek for much of the medieval period,
So stop babbling to nonexistent beings and learn Greek.
Here's an example. Perhaps not intentionally. But the attitude of "Screw this science stuff. We need the parchment for a prayer book." eradicated a lot of earlier knowledge. Not until King Ferdinand of Spain figured out that all the stuff the Moors had collected in their libraries might actually be important, the Churches attitude toward knowledge was pretty much indifference.
Even if the telecoms are not counting the public hotspot use against my caps, it could impact the performance of my network.
But mainly, it's the desire not to attract certain elements into my neighborhood who depend on free services. I wish I could find a pic of the hobo sitting in front of his tent in the 'Seattle Jungle' camp pecking away at his Apple laptop. Probably mooching off a local business' unsecured WiFi. It was run on the local news during a report on some recent drug murders there.
And then the full time employees figure that the company has no more loyalty to them. So they figure they need to do something to get ahead financially. It ends up being the full timers that sneak the code out and sell it to the competition. Been there, seen it happen.
Stocks and other financial products are owned by 'corporations'. Actually just paper entities used to hold the securities and keep the transfer of ownership out of the view of regulatory agencies. These are nothing more than legal forms stuffed in filing cabinets in the Cayman Islands. They also serve to facilitate the transfer of securities out of the view of (and manipulation by) high frequency traders. The remaining public markets represent more and more money chasing fewer and fewer traded securities. So the result is increasing volatility.
That's fine by me. You HFT traders can pick up nickels in front of the steam roller. I'll buy my positions where you can't see me.

Nope. Not going there. Too easy.
So, just the stuff with camels then.
Using that logic: The web is predominantly for porn. So we should label exceptions as SFW (Safe For Work).
