How is staying off Facebook extremely inconvenient? Why is it suspicious to avoid being "monitored/tracked" when what i really said was "avoid social web sites like Facebook"?
I don't think we are on the same topic, your use of the word "paranoid" is incorrect and what in the hell is wrong with being "antisocial" since that is such a generalization that it amounts to a non-comment, you need to be far more specific to use a term like "antisocial" and include some qualifiers.
Every human being is antisocial at some time.
Why did you even post? This is permanent and down the road someone will scoff at your ignorance, doesn't that concern you?
That is an incorrect assumption, if I am walking down the street and I am recorded what does that really matter? Was I committing a crime? But.... on a computer attached to a social site everything is recorded "permanently" (don't kid yourselves it is) and there in lies the problem, no where else in your life can you put some much about yourself (with photos for facial rec) and have it stored by a 3rd party and made available to anyone that pays.
In some cases what was once legal or acceptable may become less so, add the fact that your potential employer is paying a 3rd party to aggregate your social info before they hire... and you are truly fucked.
See walking down the street and getting recorded is beyond your control and somewhat irrelevant IMO, however, willfully posting comments and photos that come back to haunt you (or worse) is something entirely different and in your control.
So as I said, don't participate in these sites, or if you just "have to" then try to use your smarts to avoid fucking yourself over down the road...and pray that guy you friended isn't some nut job that's going to kill someone and drag you into an investigation.
I have mentioned this in multiple post, all you are doing when you join Facebook or any other social site it to activate and grow a psych profile available to everyone, that in the end, will only be used against you.
When you see people debating law using terms "IIRC" or "As far as I know" then you can safely ignore them. I see a lot of that here. Go read your rights here: https://www.eff.org/wp/know-your-rights
Encryption keys: Plead the 5th, if it applies you don't have to turn keys over, so if he had encrypted his email....
Don't use public mail, control your data, ESPECIALLY if you work somewhere like "wikileaks" (FFS that this has to be pointed out is really kinda dumb)
But the best protection of all, the absolute best fool proof protection... don't get involved and stay off the internet.
In the USA you can plead the 5th, then you do not have to give them your keys, however ask any lawyer and they will tell you what a can of worms that is.
So if it was December 2013 when the feds came a knocking would Google still have the information? I know it's less than 2 years at this point, but now I'm wondering just how long data are held, not how long data is "required" to be held, but how long it is actually held, not like Google is short of storage.
But think of the impact it could have on their marketing/psych/manipulation goals, if you can say G+ has x amount of users, and we know their real names, then it would be more valuable than Facebook, unless Facebook does the same thing... I wouldn't know my friends, family and I do not use any social media.
Is the poor treatment the protesters have given to local businesses and the police....yes I said the police, imagine your job is to patrol a protest that you may even agree with, so that no one gets hurt and nothing gets damaged, just to listen to people scream at you, cuss at you, and even throw things at you.
It's absurd, do the protesters really think the business owner and the police aren't having exactly the same financial issues and fears as everyone else?
I know the police have gotten up to bad things, I am not naive about that, I do feel if you have a message and you want people to care and listen, then say it in a respectful fashion, even when you yourself have not been treated that way.
If you need any more information on this idea read about a guy named Gandhi.
If robots do all of our space exploration then when it comes time to move into space permanently we will be behind the medical and psych knowledge curve required to adapt the human form, the more time in space a human has the more they know what space (micro gravity, vacuum, radiation) will do to them and how to adapt.
Frankly I think any human living in micro-G for a lifetime would have to be genetically modified, or we need to get to the engineering level of moving and spinning large rocks so we have a livable space for the current gene pool.
Stay away from Facebook (frankly stay away from all social webs), if you can't do that at least give careful consideration to whom you friend and what you post or link to. I look at people's post and I think "wow that's going to be harder to live down than a bad tattoo"
Just have them punch a clock like workers do, in this case it could be a central computer in the class, or a sign in sheet, or....gee what about "roll call" or is reading the names of today's youths to difficult?
I'm smiling because after decades of screwing artist and ruthlessly maintaining their stranglehold on the Music industry their shit has come home to roost, not only are you dinosaurs that don't even know you've been replaced, but there is no room for you in the future, you're done, we (the artist) don't need you any more.
I was hoping (initially) the outage was from the account closures in response to their debit card monthly fee, now it appears to be an attack, most likely in response to their debit card fee's. The other option is IT incompetence at the bank, which hurts worse? Being attacked by an outside entity or having incompetent help?
My view on what is "deserved" has changed quite a bit, no one really "deserves" anything in the truest sense, you want that land? Can you hold it? You want that job? Can you work it?
Some one had to hold the land, some one had to make the law, some one had to enforce it, and some one had to tell you you deserve something. But in reality with out the prior being true then your deserving and your rights are not true and certainly not the reality of life (try explaining your rights and what you deserve to a hungry tiger).
Slap all the civilization paint on this jalopy you want when it's all said and done Mother Natures rule still applies.
Yes but you can't really move a building or a golf course, Internet companies can have their physical servers anywhere, so why would you buy Yahoo and keep all the American fat when you can easily transition to a well educated and cheaper workforce in China?
I noticed several brand names I associate with "America" are now owned by some one else, I wonder if selling off Yahoo would the loss of all the American jobs hired there.
Call them what they are, attempts to completely control your access to content such as "they" had back when it was just TV, and the music/film/media companies controlled every aspect of the industry with an iron fist, that is what "they" want again, complete control. The Internet took that away from them, so with tireless lobbying, copyright laws, and campaigns of terror (suing children and single mothers) they have sought this control again, and they are beginning to see how to turn the Internet into a Television set so people go back to drooling.

You can target the jammers =) like a great glowing radio beacon.

If the phone is locked I don't think they can search without a warrant, if it is open to use then they can.

Release a security flaw to a 3rd party group then get all your customers to upgrade.

Good riddance.
Yes you are correct in my opinion.
I was hoping (initially) the outage was from the account closures in response to their debit card monthly fee, now it appears to be an attack, most likely in response to their debit card fee's.
The other option is IT incompetence at the bank, which hurts worse? Being attacked by an outside entity or having incompetent help?
Maybe evolution is one step ahead on this one.
Yes I LOL'ed, how long will this stupidity last? Until they are out of business?
