How do you define 'best'. Aren't the USA's average joe & jane in a let's say a rather shitty predicament? If you don't see that -- that's what I mean when I raise the question. Could it be that the 'terrorism' has been institutionalized?
Ubuntu is a PR machine. "We'll be converting to foo, we'll be rolling our own bar".
And where does it, on its web pages, say Ubuntu runs Linux? For all we care (we don't), they might as well run an MS kernel. And I don't mean MS as in M. Shuttleworth.
...how can Yahoo determine if the scheme they implement is actually going to prevent the NSA from decrypting it? It's a serious question
Yes it is. And these SE-Corps (looking at you GOOGLE!) should be much more vocal and transparent in letting the public know the predicaments they as a Corporation are in, what factors are there to consider, and their respective weights, what the options are that they're contemplating, and what their decisisions, when made, are based on.
In short -- your users may be searchers, and as such they are learners They are not dumb and will not be kept in the dark! To NOT mention, to AVOID SUBJECT, to be SILENT, are all modes of being vocal, as a matter of fact very vocal, but prob. not in the way and having the consequences that your business model much agrees with.
I'd mod you up. But in my case, it would have been invalid, since out of/agreement/ to your view, as discernable from your post. (However, since that view is an ironic comment to the current state of affairs, I personally would want to claim a small dissent with the expression of the fact that 'it doesn't have to be that way' (i.e. it's not a law of nature), with my mind going to what Noam Chomsky [now there's a personification of hope!] always says).

With Adam, Noach (rhymes with Coach?) and the whole
Christian Science monitored lot.
In the end, all of this becomes silly.
Cell phones not a problem on busses and trains?
Have you ever took a train during rush hour?
Terror right there.
That's a feature.
Any stability the Internet (TM) might boast off -- that's Debian right there.
Ubuntu is a PR machine.

And where does it, on its web pages, say Ubuntu runs Linux?
For all we care (we don't), they might as well run an MS kernel.

So why don't you start a website, collecting and publishing ahum ... 'metadata' on the
ones in power and in charge.
After all, 'It's only metadata' is their selling point. So what's good for the goose, etc.
IBM throws off its inhbitions.
Get out while you can.
Ever heard of torrents?
(Ubuntu, which never ever mentions the word Linux on its websites and webpages)

Enjoy!
Nice try -- but aren't you yourself leaving out some context...?
Where on its websites and -pages does Ubuntu ever mention the word Linux?
Good!
May they suffer.

You didn't 'predict' it. Epic fail on your part.
Shut up already, apologist
The hard task now is to get rid of that SCOTUS.
Read up on some of the Nazi judges and lawyers.
Some were killed by American bombers.
Good luck!

Personally, from its outburst a couple of days ago, I expect it to become negative magnitude easily (the more negative, the brighter).

Furthermore I suspect we're not too far apart.
