EMET is not a cure all, nor is it pushed as one. EMET is about standard best practises to mitigate many exploits (not all) and is still an excellent toolkit for what it offers, that doesn't mean you should rely on only it. And as usual the Slashdot summary comes across as far more negative than the actual article itself.
Most of the Australian ISP market has gone bust, been bought out by a larger competitor or merged. We are rapidly heading back to just a few big players as the small operators just could not compete.
replacing a ticket due to their own delays in negotiations would not be considered a bribe, I have had to do that with clients before and it is considered perfectly acceptable by government and regulatory authorities. Hell they could have paid for everything in the trip, As I understand it whatsapp was not a publically listed company and therefore not subject to strict regulatory conditions that many other companies are.
I agree it is insane and personal responsibility has been thrown to the wind, it is always someone else's fault for your own stupidity. Sadly Companies must make their rules to exist in today's society and today's society is a sue happy environment. I wish it would change, and until it does change (not holding my breath on that) then companies must increase controls and monitoring.
The word BULLSHIT jumps to mind. If facebook felt the need for more time they would have happily bought him a replacement first class ticket to anywhere he wanted to go, especially when it is billions of dollars on the line.
It may be a fear line, but it is also 100% accurate. companies are constantly being sued by there employee's for NOT being vigilant enough in the work place, whether it is sexual harassment, bullying, corruption or workplace safety. Employers have a legal responsibility to demonstrate they are taking steps to prevent and monitor those situations and if they aren't it is a legal bonanza for staff that want to take advantage of it.
Actually the only thing it has is phone numbers. never registered a facebook/google/Skype account with it and never would. the details of the phone numbers are near useless due to how often myself and my friends replace them and none of us use real names in messaging, paranoia thing from way back and seemingly justified given FB buying them out.
Whatsapp has absolutely zero personal information about me at this point in time apart from my phone number (which I change about once a year). I really like how simple and useful whatsapp is however there aint no fucking way I will believe FB spent that much money on an app that loses money and doesn't intend to change anything. but just like the bloat and shit that allowed whatsapp to become successful something else will take its place as FB tries in vain to turn it into a money making business and destroy the thing that made whatsapp so popular.
not sure how you can not have heard of it. It runs on almost every mobile platform available and is the most common messaging app around. I don't use social media at all and barely message anyone and even I have had it installed on my phone for over a year.
my point is it would be an atrocious violation that would tear apart what little freedom people still have. It would not matter if you could see everyone, you don't fix society by making everyone paranoid that they are being watched all the time, that is how you destroy society.
yes it would be just like living somewhere like North Korea, it is so wonderful when everyone is watching your every move just waiting for you to make a mistake.
While I certainly don't trust Corporates or governments with power, I trust the average person with power to monitor me a 1000 time less. The average moron has no respect for anyone elses privacy or rights and thinks what they find acceptable trumps everyone elses rights to decency.
I am sure as the Zimbabwe dollar fell people were also saying it was a great time to invest before it went back up again. At some stage if enough confidence is lost there is no recovery.
With the current crash and run on bitcoin "currency" (use that word VERY loosely), they should be able to buy back those bitcoins out of the petty cash in a few weeks.
And what search engine that is actually usefull doesn't censor results? all of the major engines do it as they have to in order to comply with various countries laws, even western countries demand a certain degree of censorship.
The gold is not destroyed in that process, merely dissolved. The process of dissolving gold has been a common method for RECOVERING gold from electronics for some time.
so while those parked sites were on apache it wasn't lying? Hosters are more likely a target for them as they showcase being able to manage a very large set of domains on the server, I really doubt they are chasing purely a stats win, IIS has had a solid market share for a long time now and such stats would be pointless.
I'm not sure Nobel would be turning too much. His whole goal of the Nobel prize was so people wouldn't look at his legacy harshly considering he invented dynamite (at the time what could be considered a terrible weapon of war). Instead of associating his name with death and destruction, we associate him with great feats in science or humanitarian work. Looks like he got exactly what he wanted.
ummm haven't noticed some of the previous winnings? Nobel peace prize is most definitely given to people with long lists of death and destruction in there past. The only part of the peace prize associated with science or humanitarian works nowadays is in the name of the prize itself.
After giving it to people like Obama the nobel peace prize has lost all credibility now anyway so what does it matter who they give it to at this point.
I see people walking around or avoiding people using there cell phones for video or photos all the time. There are many VALID reasons for not wanting to be recorded ranging from witness protection and hiding from people that pose a real physical threat to personal embaressment, cultural or religious beliefs or simply not wanting some asshole putting video or photos of them on the internet.
Actually what they have done is the opposite of what your claiming, they are treating it just like any other currency. If you move currencies around there are very strict reporting and tracking rules that apply to transactions and breaching those rules results in what you see happening here. You get charged!

obviously these scientists haven't carbon dated Mick Jagger yet!

No, why would I think that? rust is just iron oxides

I would pay for an accessory that interferes with the electronics in google glass anytime it is on within range of me!
Real money was used to buy and sell bitcoins, that is what is laundered. the feds don't give 2 shits about bitcoins themselves.
