  1. arp on Transparency Grenade Collects and Leaks Sensitive Data · · Score: 1

    So you need access to the ap and the device poisons the arp table then forwards to another server. Seems that only traffic on the ap is at risk.

    No. In todays industry, those "to big to fail", don't. Their losses are replaced by printing more money so they can pay their bonuses, and have another shot at craps.

    "3 times my salary"

      Difference is you have a salary due to your marketing/sales department who generally don't have a SALARY.

    IE: when they don't produce (income or work for you), they don't get paid.

    What really makes the dropped or clashed packets or aks painfull is tcp's backoff. Especially in a situation with hidden transmitters. The killer is, back off is exponential.

    Example:
      Say I am an outside sales rep. I do have an office at the company and I receive maybe 10% of my book from company leads. I am 100% commissioned. In my office I have copies of every clients data, invoices, receipts, everything with an emphasis documenting profit, among other things.

    Aside from you being an employee, what is the difference between 1 and 2?

    Additionally, if you don't renew it, it will be snapped up and held hostage by some registrar or addsense farmer.

    Once that happens it becomes complicated and real costly.

    Uh.. I had a Fiesta. It weighed nothing, surely a death trap. Kinda like the 3 cyl Suzuki made and GM rebadged recently.

    From the US census bureau numbers of world population, the US accounts for 4.48% of the world, with a Jan 2012 population date. They use a population date of Nov 2010 for comparison, and put China at 19.18% with relation to the current US census numbers (dont ask).

    Mid 40's is nothing new. Honda CRX's were doing it in the 80's. In the mid 70's the Mercedes 300d's were getting upper 30's with ac on, on the highway. In the mid to late 80's their SD's were doing the same with a lot more power. Many, many of those cars are still in service to this day with 100's of thousands of miles experience. Many even running bio.

    Last time I remember something like this happening was in the early 90's when the cost for sim memory shot up almost overnight due to a fire in a chemical plant. At that time I sold about 30 used, pulled, 4 meg sims for like $125 usd almost overnight. Major panic.

      But, one would think these days, buyers would have futures to end this type of supply problem.. Like every other manufacturing industry.
