Because the danger isn't poisoning the cache of an end user. The trouble comes when a site's DNS cache is poisoned, affecting hundreds or thousands of users.
Most of these DNS caches are run on a UNIX derivative.
I've been using Comcast's IPv6 6rd since it launched over a year ago. In the first few months, there were several instances with parts of the IPv6 global network were down, but those problems were corrected within a couple days.
All said, Comcast has been out in front of this compared with the other US ISPs. They should be commended (on this issue, at least).
IIRC, the last two US Presidents that started from an engineering background were Herbert Hoover and Jimmy Carter. Depending who you ask, they were either awful leaders or they were screwed by fate.
Both were defeated after one term by orators, who became legendary leaders in the US mythology.
Last year, 7.2 percent of those loans to public universities resulted in a default.
Assumptions: 4 years to complete a bachelors degree plus 1 year to start repayment and loans have a 3% APR and are dispersed in full at the start of the school year. Let's also say the government bears the full cost for all defaults, and the defaulter never pays a cent in taxes.
So, for a college student on a loan-driven ride through college, the total cost to the government is about $5000. That cost is recovered from said graduate within 3 years via increased income tax revenue. Since most workers will remain in the economy for another 30 years, this investment represents a 10:1 return on investment.
There are separate issues wrt private schools, MAP grants, etc. But this exercise almost always shows a substantial return on the investment. This isn't about poor lazy people. This raises people out of poverty, with a side dose of increased tax revenue and decreased welfare costs.
Only a fiscal lunatic would eliminate subsidized loans.
I agree that government would be a logical choice to provide this service. It would be sensible to build a geographic web of trust, where citizens authenticate themselves with the municipality, the municipalities trust the governors, and the governors trust one another.
I would also enjoy the conspiracies that this model would create.
I disagree. I trust public CAs for web browsing. I trust my company CAs for company email.
The reverse of this is not true.
TBH, we should have certificate stores for each application. In a perfect world, I should install my bank's certificate as a trusted certificate, and distrust Thawte, Verisign, etc when visiting mybank.com. But alas, that is hard.
The chain-of-trust model is not hierarchical. Many CA certificates do not include a domain name at all. It is all about the certificate subject and the key usage flags.
In short, Comodo has issued fraudulant certificates for Google Mail, Yahoo, and a couple other high traffic sites. Gameboy is correct - nuke both of these CAs immediately.
1) Options -> Advanced -> Encryption -> View Certificates 2) In the Certificate Manager window, click the Authorities tab. 3) Scroll down to DigiNotar. 4) Delete or Distrust the "DigiNotar Root CA" certificate.

In units of volume, that is 12,000 US Gallons, or 45,000 liters.
Also, about ¾ the volume of a typical 40' shipping container.

In this chapter, we have two private corporations fighting over a subdirectory owned by a third corporation.
All of these "people" are insane.
It's hard to go wrong with DJB*.
Charter was about a year behind with IPv6 6rd, but they are likely to catch up quickly.
Must be a relic of an operating system.
IPv6 6rd has been freely accessible since early 2010.

How much faith do you have in your numbers?

The average annual income for an individual with a high school diploma is $35k. For an individual with a bachelors degree, it is $50k.

For a married man in that tax bracket, the difference in income is taxed at 15%.

The average annual cost of tuition at a public university in 2009 was $7020.

Subsidized Interest: $7020 * (1+2+3+4+4 years) * 0.03 = ~$3000
Marginal cost of default: $7020 * 4 * 0.072 = ~$2000
Marginal annual tax revenue from graduate: ($50k - 35k) * 0.015 * 0.928 = ~$2000

Your secure connection has been certified by someone who gives away free certificates! Security!
From what I've seen, it's actually 80% arguing with 19% about 1%
I guess they can't see it from here.
