Your response is yet ANOTHER testimony to the brokenness of the comment/score-comment system here. When a comment is rated, and then someone attaches a comment to it, if they can cite evidence contrary to an insightful or other "elevated" or "lowered" comment, then the commentator should be identified as the one affecting someone's score/rating. Moreover, the cited reference information could be verified. It's not the sort of thing for fast "discourse", but it would help clean up this mess where clearly faulty comments elevated remain elevated, and where blatant retaliation is used to drive down someone's score gets left uncorrected.

a programmer. So, i'm thinking STTNG Technobabble.
The real solution is to create in the next releases of Linux the requisite hooks and sockets and desktop and user controls that are powerful in and of themselves, but install a minimalist desktop.
When users (home or corporate) want to install non-compliant apps, then force the user into a sandbox (maybe a virtual machine?), deny full functionality, and deprive writing to the hard drive. But, also deprive writing to ports and attachable devices or network paths, too.
This would force users to SCREAM at the developers. This would then separate the cruft of apps from the productivity apps. Channels or pipelines for wishlists and demand lists would rekindle the Open Source development cycles into more coherent, unified, productive activity. Right now, we just have boatloads of apps of dubious broad value, but certainly of value to someone or some-few.
If the apps in high demand are more coporate in nature, then these need to be touted before, during, and at full compliance. Fighting microsoft on this front is not sensible until and unless IT directors have no sensible room to argue. Some here say without root the users cannot install apps. Excuse me? I'm not root, and i am able to install some apps, albeit in my own directory. I am not an admin, and lately haven't investigated depriving myself of install capability, but, honestly, isn't possible to install apps in a system even if the user is not part of the root or similar groups?
Just to learn this myself, i will set the system (mine is Mandriva 2009 Free) to maximum and remove the test user from any priviliges that are apparent to me. Again, not being an admin-grade person, i might be able to figure out.skel, but if i were a small mill or machine shop manager who is semi-savvy, i should be able to read provided documentation, and the distro should provide more sensible, understandable, meaningful tools.
In theory, it should be possible for someone out there (programmers?) to create scenario/discovery tools (some exist, some are undersupported) so that small shop IT-hat-wearing managers can:
-- inventory their devices/nodes -- apply communications limitation (inbout and outbound) -- test those by trying basic attacks -- test those by simulating internal user attempts to circumvent admin-impose limitations -- viewing results of the system/LAN/WAN/VPN check -- (fill in your favorite, righteous concern/s)
Does anyone make a distro that is designed to forensically one's own network from outside but includes plugins that identify the probing machine as a legitimate unit of the network being tested? (YESSS, I've visited Linux.org...) This would alleviate needing to pre-notify the ISP not to unnecessarily monitor or shut down the traffic, an not to report the police on them.

As for kicking ass of an intruder, there are few reasons for anyone to be **IN** a home that is not theirs: guest or intruder. Intruder includes drunkards, or ANYONE entering the domicile even in good faith. Once their mistake has been made clear, they need to clear out, even if they think they have power to just stick around and turn the place upside down just showing that THEY are in command, not the tenant.
How would any of YOU feel if you inadvertently discovered your computer was bugged, and every time you cleaned it, a new less obvious method popped up, and every time you swept your home, your calls, your e-mails, your vehicle, your clothing, your friends and family... ALL turn out to be tapped. Every new contact you make... marked because *some*day they could be the unforseen crucial link.
That is where we are, and as long as we accept it, we cope. But, sometimes some investigators go too far. Some are not even empowered, authorized agents... some are petty instigators who happen to be commissioned to exploit technology to harass others, dig up dirt for future use, and just to aggregate knowledge.
Open your minds people: I may dwell on the negative, but for the more "reasoned" of you to just respond to the negative with negatives instead of admitting the negativity i exhibit is a light on a bigger negativity....
As for the virii traps, like i said, if the information transfer technology protocols say that your computer should not transmit unless YOU initiate the response/transmission, then anyone on the outside commanding traffic you didn't initiate IS FAIR GAME. If they happent to be a zombie, or a federal agent fishing around, they are TRESPASSING. If i can have a lock on my door, i can have a lock on my computer. If i can use a hammer or a gun or a taser within my home against an intruder threatening me, then i can disable or mark for traceability anyone trying to penetrate my infrastructure. If in the process i *out* some super-stealth or clandestine organization, then those masters of the universe must have become sloppy. I know in MY heart i've done or said some crazy, interesting, perplexing, or maybe questionable things that may instigate a wiretap, but i have not broken any laws (real or in draft) warranting a wiretap. So, if i defend my property to the death, that's my personal decision.

when you are the target of an investigation. When you suspect you are being monitored, you should have on your sacrificial system some tripwires, and of course, a HELLATIOUS amount of virii. Of course, make damn sure your computer is behind multiple firewalls. DO NOT use the fucking ISP-branded browser, as that shit SURELY is riddled with spyware to enable ISPs to facilitate law enforcement snooping, or ISP snooping.
As long as you can rely on standards that say a computer that did NOT initiate any traffic is not supposed to be sending, then if any snoops find your computer and then hammer away at it, it's like a mouse jumping all around a nose-crushing trap while trying to get at the cheese. If the trap fucking crushes the metaphoric cops' skulls, THEY ASKED FOR IT if their computers become infected.
These are ways (and there are others) to find out if you are being sniffed. You might not know WHO is sniffing or surveilling you, but cops come knocking your door, and don't have any ISP complaint letter, (wait, if the ISP feels you are a nuissance, they should first (ideally) warn you, then cut you off, and if you 'trespass', THEN call the cops...), then you know it's the cops trying to punish you for impeding them.
OTOH, if you booby trap your home in anticipation of or in response to ssuspected warrantless or sneak-and-peek operations, then, again, THEY ASKED FOR IT if they get hurt. You don't have to be a criminal to want to punish sneak-and-peek activity. After all, ANYONE in your abode who is not invited is a trespasser, even a paramedic if they insist on remaining present after realizing there is no emergency, no body, no blood, no validity in being present at the address because the address is WRONG due to admittedly a faulty dispatch order...
If I wake up in the middle of the night and somebody is over me, and wasn't invited, they better be ready or able to disable or kill me first. I won't take kindly to coming home to or waking up to strangers or stranglers in the night. These are reasons law enforcement better start making better use of physically touchless surveillance upon people who are not bona fide criminals but who just might take up the torch of making a statement against abuse of the public. Mobsters, tech thieves, and true criminas are not exempt. But spying on those who HAVE NOT committed crimes (there ain't not Star Fleet Temporal Commission...) is tricky business...

If I wake up in the middle of the night and somebody is over me, and wasn't invited, they better be ready or able to disable or kill me first. I won't take kindly to coming home to or waking up to strangers or stranglers in the night. These are reasons law enforcement better start making better use of physically touchless surveillance upon people who are not bona fide criminals but who just might take up the torch of making a statement against abuse of the public. Mobsters, tech thieves, and true criminas are not exempt. But spying on those who HAVE NOT committed crimes (there ain't not Star Fleet Temporal Commission...) is tricky business...
like it's a radio show, then woulld you be a "freak show"?
