It never ceases to amaze me how often people are surprised when Apple blocks applications the first time it goes through the review, especially as the apps are nigh invariably approved after an appeal.
My outrage at Apple for dictating to users what they should and can be doing with their computers/devices is endless. It doesn't so much surprise me, just reinitiates that outrage. How anyone can tolerate that behavior is beyond me, but each to their own I guess.
That they blocked it at all is outrage worthy, even if they changed their minds later. I prefer to decide what is allowed onto my computers/devices, thank you very much.
Others I guess need their hand held through out life. My original comment stands, this is stupid and retarded and exactly what I expect of Apple, and their customers. Hell, that they reversed the decision shows me just how stupid it was to begin with, and this is typical. I wonder how many App submissions are rejected the first time for no good reason, just like this. How often do developers go through this so called appeal process to reverse the decision?
How's that walled garden working out for you Apple fanbois? Pretty cool, huh, blocking a simple network health monitor App because it's "objectionable content." Who knew Truth was objectionable content?
Also figure in your bandwidth, you'll be paying Amazon by the GB, at about $.09/GB after the first GB.
One important thing I failed to mention. You suck bandwidth at double the rate (data into the VPN, data back out to your client, you'll pay for both transfers.)
If every user of the Internet were to buy a domain name and VPS hosting for a VPN for his personal use, how much would that cost per year?
Well, if you roll your own setup.. let's break it out.
Domain registration costs me about $12/year. Give or take, I tend to renew for large blocks of time to save a few bucks.
Next, Amazon Web Services EC2 instance to host my VPN's central connection point. That costs about $10/mo plus bandwidth, which ranges from pennies to a few dollars.
So, ballpark you're looking at about $15/mo to host your own VPN with a domain of your choosing. There are some other 'value' I'm not addressing, such as time and expertise needed for setting up the server, secondary DNS provider (I personally just trade secondary service with a friend, he does mine, I do his.)
Also figure in your bandwidth, you'll be paying Amazon by the GB, at about $.09/GB after the first GB. I don't use my VPN for the majority of my traffic, it mostly exists to facilitate a network bridge between home and whereever I am, and as a secure channel to the webserver that I run.
It's helped law enforcement agents uncover at least 30 cases and arrest 120 people suspected of designing programs that confer unfair advantages from X-Ray vision (see-through walls) to auto-targeting (uncannily accurate snipers). Those convicted in the past have done jail time.
Yeah, cheating in games does kinda ruin it for the fair players.. but... JAIL TIME for cheating in a video game (or making cheat programs for others), really? That seems a bit extreme. The times we live in.
Bet that goes over really well in jails. "Whacha in for?" "Cheating to win a video game." Ouch.
Barack Obama is an enemy of the United States, as evidenced by his support of Islam.
Sure I'm bored, I'll bite. You're a racist idiot. Support of some religion has absolutely nothing to do with someone's status as a 'enemy' or 'friend' of our country. Are you really this stupid? Ever heard of separation of church and state?
If anyone is an enemy of the USA, you are. You're an idiot with a broken world view. A waste of the O2 you breath. Good day.
I don't care if Congress doesn't want to work with a president. That is their prerogative and right. I do care if a president tries to go around a congress to force his agenda.
Oh I get it. Barack definitely made some pretty bad choices. He had a nasty situation with obstructionists in congress whom refused to play ball, no matter what. Now the Democrats are trying the same ploy. I dunno if it's working any better.
However, when (and not if) Democrats retake Senate and Congress, you can bet your panties Mr. Trump will start doing the same shit Barack did. Implementing policy via executive action.
I'm not saying what Barack did was a good idea, obviously it wasn't cuz all it's taking is a lunatic with a pen to undo everything Barack did. But that pen swings both ways, you can also bet your panties there will be lots of reversals and rollbacks of Trump's insanity, too. This is just not how our country was designed to be governed. Barack showed us the way to executive governance, Trump likes it too. It's not good for anyone.
Yeah, pretty much everything GerryGilmore said. This knee-jerk reaction to a pretty obscure flaw is way overboard.
I personally don't want my CPU's branch prediction gimped because some other idiot can't keep his web browser away from malicious sites.
The only panic that should be realistic and warranted is big cloud VM providers concerned these attacks could compromise tenants on shared systems. Patch that shit into oblivion as far as I'm concerned, but get your grubby patches off my desktop. I don't want it, I'll take the performance any time of the day, I know how to avoid questionable web sites and content.
This is the stupidest thing I've ever read. You're suggesting people ought to vote on things not because of the merits of what they're voting on but out of vindictive spite. And you wonder why there is so much vitriol in politics. Your mindset is part of the problem.
Trump's election to POTUS was vindictive spite from the right in this country. I am perfectly ok with the left hitting back. Trump's entire presidency has been one spite after another, reversing everything his predecessor did that he can, not because he believes in those positions, but because Barack Obama did.
..."Windows is a service." I seen that blerb on some support document on Microsoft's website recently. We speculated they'd try to move the OS into a subscription model. Just more gearing up for that move.
I don't mind my PC being always connected. It pretty much already is. Where I'm going to get really upset is when my PC stops working properly when my internet is down for whatever reason.
However, my concern regarding Windows becoming more walled garden like is not really there. Steam, SteamOS and Steam for Linux is making leaps and bounds to bring what I use my PC for primarily into modern times: Gaming. I just hope by the time Windows becomes truly unbearable to use, Steam for Linux is better and more stable. It's not bad now.
Microsoft's play here feels like folly. They're like the last company selling operating systems. Everyone else just sells hardware and gives the OS away with the machine, either it be Apple's offerings, or your average Android smartphone. I'm not sure what they're planning exactly, but.. competing with free is never an easy game to play.
But let's keep the litmus tests going instead of Congress passing real laws.
This congress? Pass laws? Impossible. Hell, they haven't been really passing laws for a good while now. The division is so bad, neither side can do jack shit without screwing with the law-making rules to make shit happen. Which is always amusing cuz it always turns around to bite the other side in the ass later.
And even then, it's all one sided, just like under Obama. The tug-o-war continues, and nothing substantial gets done. Just bandaids to cover their asses while they squabble and bitch, and do nothing real.
Our country is ripping itself apart in slow motion. At some point, the political ping pong is going to get ugly (it already is.) And at some future point, one side is going to decide the other side is completely out to lunch and can't be reasoned with. Then Americans will do what they do best: Start killing each other. We got another civil war brewing, if you asked me.
Gee, it sounds like we've become everything we were fighting against in the previous century.
Mmm. I don't think we became anything we weren't already. As more of the USA's secrets are revealed, and the full story of what the hell we've been up to for the last 100 years... I'm pretty convinced we were and still are the evil ones. Sure we stopped the Nazis, but just because we stopped a greater evil doesn't suddenly make us the good guys. It's a illusion we enjoyed for a long time, and now the fog is lifting, we're not such good guys after all.
Every single day reveals more about the USA that reinforces my belief that we are indeed the bad guys. We support terrorism and dictators. Our military is killing people every day. We claim we're defending freedom, but are we? Really? Who's freedom are we defending, exactly? And from what? The terrorists we created and are creating every day by bombing them endlessly and making more really pissed off people who have nothing more to lose?
Face it. Americans are nasty evil people who fuck with everything and everyone. Freedom is an illusion. Freedom to Americans means do what we say, or we'll bomb you, sanction you, support rebels in your country and generally just make your life miserable and wreck your country until you do what we say.
Basically, this isn't an implementation bug, or even a design flaw... it's an architectural flaw, present in all modern CPUs. Unless great care is taken, any CPU that supports both speculative execution and memory caching is vulnerable. This is incredibly huge. To a first approximation, all computers are broken.
Hmm. When I first got wind of this and read up on the details, I was pretty shocked. This is definitely huge. But it's impact? Not so sure. These are very specialized attacks. For servers and cloud computing, yeah, huge impact because of shared hardware. If you're sharing hardware with an unknown number of other tenants and have free reign on your VM, yeah this is a huge security hole.
Obfuscation does play a huge part in mitigating this attack, at least. You have to get onto a shared piece of infrastructure you're actually interested in attacking. Impact on end users? Ennnnnhhhhh.. probably not so much. Performance for sure if the knee-jerk reaction is going to be gimp our software to guard against this issue. I am for one hoping the software end makes things optional. If I want my extra performance at my own risk, I should be able to take it.
How useful this is going to be for mass-installing malware? Probably not very. But people are clever, so I wouldn't put it past someone with enough time to create something to exploit this heinously.
As far as web-servers using java script to read your kernel mode memory... yeah, not good, but then if you're visiting a illegitimate website you don't trust, you probably should be in a sandboxed VM anyway. Evil sites are evil. At least the extra layer of virtualization is going to make attacks difficult to figure out what's going on. Almost getting to the point where we're going to need sacrificial computers to do 'unsafe' browsing. This makes VMs a bit less bulletproof.
Your internet provider is a conduit on which multiple services rely. It cannot and should not, by law, be used to control or limit access, or police content either of it's own accord or upon request of external parties.
Of course, personally, I am strongly against connecting any devices (other than computers) in my home to the outside facing network, but that's beside the point.
Some people just don't get it. This right here, piracy, nothing to do with net neutraility. Zero. About the only relation is Comcast blocking Bittorent cuz it's primary use case is piracy. In fact, that's sort of what gave birth to NN as a law. Anyway, Zero relation. In fact, ISP's are required by the DMCA to take efforts to stop piracy if a content creator reports it occurring on their network. Failure to attempt to block or disconnect illegitimate usage will negate safe harbor rules and the ISP itself could become liable for damages.
Please don't flaunt NN rules as some sort of side-stepping copyright infringement laws. It's just plain misinformation.
Why is this even a post? So what? The error message is an error message, it's content is utterly irrelevant. How telling someone "that didn't work" any differently makes any difference is beyond me. Stupid.
...just not buy proprietary garbage the manufacturer won't let you actually own, modify and/or repair. Geeze, not rocket science folks. And a pointless battle. You think after what, 30+ years of doing business in this fashioned, the manufacturers are gunna change? Vote with your wallet.
Feel free to replace 'The Manufacturer" with whatever you see fit.
If this is becoming the normal response to people trying to help your business by pointing out problems, then fuck them.
Sell the vulnerabilities to hackers, make some cash and sit back to watch the fun. Sick of this response to helpful hacking. Just stop helpful hacking, make it all malicious.
You know it's crap like this that encourages end-users to find ways to block auto-updates, because of abusive use of it.
Need to reel that BS in, it's not a good idea, auto-updates should be a good thing. Don't be muddying the waters any further, it's getting pretty obnoxious as it is.
State Sen. Scott Wiener (D-CA) announced plans to introduce a bill to adopt net neutrality as a requirement in his state. He wrote in a Medium post, "If the FCC won't stand up for a free and open internet, California will."
As I already commented, this can't happen cuz interstate commerce and FCC rules and all that. So to achieve this, there will need to be a separate internet in California.
Now look I'm not saying the sky is falling, but this is the crack in the egg. Maybe nothing comes of it, or maybe internet starts to fragment.
This is what the repeal bought us. This could happen. Maybe not right away, but as networks become increasing competitive with each other, it's going to start to make sense to shut out your competitors users completely, and to get exclusivity of content on your network.
I can already see the commercials, "Verizon's network offers HBO exclusively!" If you don't think it can happen... without net neutrality, it's a possible future.
Given the mood of the country (in general, not just about NN), come 2018 a whole lot of congressmen with (R) after their name are going to be out, and more with (D) after their name will be in.
Should any new legislation WRT NN not wait until after 2018 to give it a better chance?
Mmmm. This is a beautiful catch-22 those (R)'s are in now. If they do nothing, they will be pistol whipped with repealing NN, in the midterms.
If they do something, they'll incur Trump's wrath. It's his goon that did the repeal afterall.
And Democrats have no motivation to act right now. Repubs just handed them more winning things to talk about in 2018.
Congress is the only one that can fix the law to fix the problem.
This we agree on. Congress needs to pass new NN law, but this congress? Dunno about that. Let's hope the ISPs don't fuck everything up in the meantime, cuz they got a free hand to do whatever they want now. All they gotta do is tell us they're doing it.
Um.. Word of advice, if you care to listen. You need something else other than "Trump Bad, we oppose" and this.
If writing it only made it true. The sad truth is that democrats will definitely do well just going for the anti-Trump angle. Look at the man's approval ratings. In the dumpster. Opposing the Harasser-In-Chief is plenty to get votes.
The really sad truth is, we could end up with some pretty shady democrats that don't need to run on issues, they can just say 'I hate Trump' and that's it. Done.

And get more latency and slowdown either due to the VPN software itself or the limits at the VPN provider.
I ping 30ms across my VPN, I'm pretty happy with that.
Also figure in your bandwidth, you'll be paying Amazon by the GB, at about $.09/GB after the first GB.
