  1. Re:Violation of My Privacy? on Hunting for Botnet Command and Controls · · Score: 4, Informative
    When the security "experts" are busy looking at all the data passing through routers, who is busy ensuring that the "experts" will not violate my privacy by reading the personal but sensitive e-mail notes that I send to my friends and associates?
    Umm.. they're not looking at "all the data passing through routers". Flow data is a sampling of information (source, dest, proto, port, etc) from a designated collection point. Even without the actual "data" portion of the packet, it's impractical to collect anything more than a small percentage of the total traffic.

    So you can put the gun down- your privacy is safe.
  2. Re:Awesome! will I be able to use the Internet now on Fedora Core 4 Available · · Score: 1

    I got one of those. Doesn't work completely right in Linux (Mandrake 10) or Windows, though sort of works in both.

    Funny, I used a SB Live! under Linux for a couple years (mainly because of the SPDIF output). The emu10k1 drivers are extremely well documented.. I never had a single problem.

    What a "piece of crap" card! ^^
