It will be fun listening to all the right-wing nut-bars after Trump goes down in flames. There will not be enough whaaaaaaaaaaamulances in all of the free world to deal with it.
I always look at "reports" like these with a very skeptical eye because usually they have been produced for some company looking for a contract. As a 20 year DoD employee, I can tell you that neither my SIPRNET nor NIPRNET has been owned by anyone. Except the Chinese, but that's normal, right?
First of all, people need to learn to be less thin-skinned, as it seems we have become a society of the Perpetually Offended.
Second, if you must be Perpetually Offended, how about exercising your freedom of choice and avoiding parts of the Intertubes that Perpetually Offend you?
And it it is perfectly reasonable for six detectives to act on a warrant and conduct a search at 6:15am. That isn't harassment at all.
For the most part, no. Conducting a raid when your target is not expecting it is the way it's done. This issue here is that the raid itself was pure harassment for running a Tor node, not because the very well educated detectives actually thought they would find porn.
Why, who would have known that the person known pseudonymously on slashdot.org as "Frosty Piss" (id 770223 ) is PRO CHILD PORN AND A TERRORIST SUPPORTER. I mean, that is really surprising that "Frosty Piss" (id 770223 ) LIKES CHILD PORN AND A ROOTS FOR TERRORISTS.
I'm rather shocked and surprised equipment wasn't seized. Isn't that pretty much standard operating procedure when it comes to computer crime? Seize the equipment and examine it elsewhere. Something isn't right here. Are police sophisticated enough to do in-home examination of computer equipment to see if it contains 'contraband' data? Something doesn't add up here, if you asked me.
Exactly. This is why the privacy guys shit-canned the servers and brought in new equipment.
Of course, that doesn't help Zuckerberg's marketing analytics or Facebook's "you are the product" business model.
People gripe about this, but what do you expect? Even Slashdot has to pay the bills. Facebook isn't some altruistic touchy-feely social experiment, it's a business. An you are not obligated to participate.
Until the situation changes, HackingTeam will have to ask express permission for every single commercial operation that involves the sale of their Galileo system abroad.
Or, they will simply move their operation elsewhere.

People often use their phones for hours everyday, and for many people their phone is their main computing device.
"Get a life".
describes this whole fiasco as a "marketing effort" to promote Marsala's company
How does telling everyone that you are incompetent "promote" your business?

Your shirts are all brown, aren't they?
Ah yes, the obligatory Nazi reference.

Yes, but it's a Dyson which means it cost twice what any other solution cost, so it's go to be good, right?
Certainly someone in government could reverse engineer the code to enable re-use?
From the "story":
the FBI had paid a hacker a one-time fee to use a piece of hardware that allowed it to access the iPhone 5c
...which actually is an interesting clue.
The FBI's ever changing story is flaky to say the least. On the other hand, I don't really care.
If they are selling it on the open market to the highest bidder without vetting who they are selling it to then yes they are a criminal too.
How so? What laws are being broken?
What's going on with Slashdot stories that get posted and then deleted?

Wow. Just wow.

They're not suppose to investigate? The couple running the exit node weren't aware that their equipment could be used to facilitate criminal actions?
Let me paraphrase your comment: THINK OF THE CHILDREN! AND TERRORISTS! WHAT ABOUT THE TERRORISTS!
This is not the first time the Seattle Police have made forays into spying on the citizenry.
Presuming they don't have the remote access, maybe they use the opportunity to install some spy/otherware on all these nodes they are 'checking'...
Good point. Seattle Privacy Coalition took their servers off-line and replaced them from the hardware up. The Tor node is still down.
Sorry, did you have a traumatic brain injury? I really cant understand your writing...

You can't blame the schools for trying to make every buck they can.
Yes, you can. While raking in the moo-la has become the primary purpose of institutes of higher learning, it didn't use to be that way.
The one thing that makes LG's G5 stand out from the crowd is its modularity...
I know, I'm over 35 so I'm a luddite. Is this a new car? The "story" such that it is, is not really very descriptive.
