List of sovereign states: "193 member states, two observer states, and 11 other states." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
180 is covered AC. It just shows the reach of the "International Authorities" AC. If they can cooperate on this, how is any VPN secure in most nations?
France, the UK, Germany, the USA are now so invested in the NSA, GCHQ methods and national signals intelligence contractors that they cant do anything else.
Monitoring would need a 9 person team in shifts per interesting person, all that funding is now lost to signals intelligence contractors.
With millions of very interesting people now wondering around thats a lot of vetted police teams staff to work shifts.
Most of the EU does not have overtime for that or totally lacks the needed undercover skill sets. Traditional criminal informants just sell/offer stories or do not have needed community access.
The police teams would have to blend in and have a reason to be in some very inward looking communities that track, question and confront every person who does not belong to their faith area.
The other option is to enter a home and try and add a secure sound and video network. Having 1, 2 or 3 strangers enter a home for any reason will get noticed by neighbours and mentioned in many communities if the person is away.
Some political leaders think that if they culturally enrich the security services enough that undercover work would be more successful.
All that happens is the security services get penetrated and all their years of tracking gets reported back by double agents thanks to wide open employment programs double agents into the once secure security services.
Most nations monitoring did not work as their staff get noticed just by driving into no go areas, a lack all skills thanks to undercover budgets going to select contractors or are working with/under double agents who got invited deep into the security services.
The role of a 5th column, the classic Quisling issue is a huge risk given political interference in the vetting of the EU security services.
Keep the browser ahead of any emerging security issues.
Offer really great encryption that is not just another US brand with a trapdoor or backdoor for the NSA, GCHQ.
Get the browser fully supporting modern computer hardware.
No need to fund SJW to correct spelling or suggest new words.
Just code and compile a fast, secure browser. The users can then enjoy the web.
The user will then have a really great secure browser for their own politics and commenting global issues if they want.
It depends on the IP seen and the VPN.
By escaping logging the UK could invoke legal issues with VPN providers set up in EU and NATO member nations.
Legally a few EU nations have to help the UK police with their legal internet investigations. As the users of interest are only from the UK and are under legal UK investigation they get few of the strong national protections often expected in some EU nations.
Tracking would quickly find the original UK ip.
The US has "Rule 41 makes life easier for Feds, cops to target Tor, VPN users..." (30 Nov 2016) http://www.theregister.co.uk/2...
"...to hack any suspect who's using Tor, a VPN, or some other anonymising software to hide their whereabouts, in order to find the target's true location."
Expect the UK to allow such authorisation for equipment interference on the VPN to find the UK IP and ISP.
The legal costs to cover searches, linking an IP to an account get pasted onto the ISP customers.
Thats funding that could have gone into better networking, peering, new staff, expansion, profits, advertising.
Great for the new legal teams who have to ensure every letter is correct.
Users will just buy into really great VPN's well outside the UK, NATO and EU so the UK gov cant ask to log their VPN internet usage under color of law.
All the best and fun people are moving to US sites that embrace freedom of speech and freedom after speech.
The global brands that embrace SJW, censorship, theocracies, nation blasphemy laws will just become publishers of gov news and celebrity staff taking points.
Very boring. Very happy to ban or report users is not brand growth.
If users get banned for commenting on the news, a video clip that a SJW did not approve of users will seek better US sites. The interesting users will just move to much better sites that allow public discourse and political freedom.
People all over the USA are setting up new sites that allow freedom and discussion. US sites that offer the world freedom grow and attract a wider global following as anyone can get censorship back in their own nations for free.
The part that set US global branding apart was US protected freedom. Take that away and much smarter, more fun US brands will grow.
Keeping the USA in Vietnam. Countering the Watergate reporting, countering The Pentagon Papers https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.... The US in Iraq the first time around, getting the US in the Iraq the second time. Getting the US into Libya, pushing to get into Syria.
The US press who supported the one political party over another.
Once the wider public started reading what wikileaks and other whistleblowers had published the mainstream media had to push back. The US media missed a lot of what was in wikileaks due to a lack of reporters, a lack of skill, a lack of funds, their own party politics or the need to keep advertising funds.
So the trend of "fake news" was started to get people back to the US mainstream media and their pro war, pro big gov talking points.
Part of the push back it now to control links, discussion, comments, messages, terms, video clips that might totally bypass the traditional role of the US mainstream media.
To stop any further wider discussion you have teams of SJW ready to block links, the wider internet, words, comments, ban users, videos, sites, politicians, whistleblowers, public investigations and suggest only the mainstream media can be linked or supported.
The term the SJW teams like is "fake news" when they alter, remove, delete, ban or delist. i.e. censorship.
Part of that is removing links to or trending political video clips. Or political video clips that get shared with new user content at the beginning and end.
e.g. any political video will never make it to the site and the user will be banned after a SJW has noted a type of political content.
What was an open portal for political comment will be a global safe space.
The US gives the internet back to your local provider in full.
Shaping, slowness, data caps, offers of pay for speed become the norm on many local ISP contracts.
A user in an inner city area then has the option of one or two slow or really expensive ISP plans.
If the users wants media from a server on the other side of the USA or in a fly over state they will have to pay for an extra fast account per month.
Internet brands that have formed monopolies, duopolies or non compete cartels will get exposed as more and more users seek better results.
Gated communities, smaller cities will just build their own local networks and connect to really great regional providers who offer real national peering and don't slow or shape.
Word of their efforts, real speed and local skill will spread.
People will have to build their own fast city networks with total ISP freedom or keep paying for ISP monopolies for speed.
If the US wants a free and fair internet it has a few options:
Pay existing providers for their fast plans and hope they spend on network upgrades this time for real and not just pocket the new payments.
Nationalize the networks per city, town, state and allow any and all providers to be a virtual ISP anywhere in the USA.
Allow any brand to get into the pole and duct side if they build an open, fast network and let all other providers on.
Pay up and hope it will be different this time or build a real network.
A lot of good people in the USA will sell that kind of site to the world.
The USA supports freedom of speech from gov/mil. So different sites in the USA can really offer what most other nations never can.
Freedom after speech. The free flow of ideas, comments, history, politics, faith, blasphemy, talking about a coup, fascists or communists, leaked documents, whistleblowers. Topics the fourth estate is to lazy, incompetent, under funded, legally challenged or corrupt to cover.
Users are tired of SJW, foreign funding from monarchies, cults or theocracies setting rules.
Tired of been reported by SJW, tired of having the discussion of docs anyone can read and search getting banned.
Smart and fun people will just move to much better free speech sites that allow comment on matters in the news.
To ban news does not stop the comments, talking, ideas. News that people are interesting and want to comment on just moves to much better sites.
In the past a human might have to walk into a vault. Find film or a tape. Find the expert help with the playback system. Work to ensure playback would not further risk the media.
A few very different video systems got used by different nations over the decades.
A "robot" would be a digital system that just ensures the storage media is ready, indexed, seachable given the amount of digital material thats ready to access.
No more walking into a vault with a shelf number, location and finding a rare video format. The robot will just playback the video clip on demand.
What does a whitelist do per site with the code?
Does the code run from the whitelisted site visited or its on a third party site that expects a browser to allow it to work?
If a site wants to protect SJW, faiths, cults, theocracies, monarchies, celebrities and their staff thats fine.
Anyone who enjoys freedom after speech will just move to really great sites that fully support freedom of speech.
Freedom is a brand that sells globally and attracts the best users.
Moving from freedom to ever more control, more SJW, more bans will just result in less users. Word will spread about better sites without bans and more much fun.
Freedom supporting sites will trend.
Becoming a site to post if your a SJW, faith or someones "staff" pushing a brand, cult or name might seem like a nice policy. Its also very boring.
will walk to other sites that will welcome them.
Who wants be stay behind on the safe space sites? No fun, no jokes, nothing new, just boring SJW mod approved topics?
Freedom of speech and freedom after speech sells globally and is the fun that attracts users. The freedom to read a comment day, weeks, years later is also a great selling point.
What the SJW do on some sites will be great free branding for all sites that support freedom of speech.
VR and the start of 4K gaming is gpu, cpu pushing specs up.
The push out of dx12 and needed software updates, the need for gpu generations like the 1070, 1080 nvidia cards, the suggestion for 16-32 gb of RAM, the hint that an i7 Is needed.
The 4K ready games are getting very complex with a new generation of GPU, CPU suggested for the very best graphics settings.
Add in the VR testing software to offer feedback on cpu, gpu, ram to ensure a really great user experience.
The ability to get a bit faster storage with new motherboards is also helping upgrades.
As 4K displays get cheaper upgrades are needed to just ensure the gpu can keep up. Expect more upgrades to ensure 4K really works well with the next games.
Developers are also getting more sloppy with vast, rushed projects spread over console and desktop markets, the developers might select their fav GPU to optimise for.
GPU brands will work hard to present the best drivers and support.
Add in the complexity of Microsoft and its internal console support, desktop support, dx12...
All the end user can do is buy into RAM, CPU, GPU for the new games and hope 4K works.
The problem for that is the US would then need a special, bespoke production line and that would add costs to vast international just in time production runs.
Costs in testing, costs in staff, costs in a brands ramp up and down over a product "just for the USA".
All the interesting people would avoid any US telco network compatible device knowing its wide open to the US gov by design.
Weak junk US gov mandated design keys would then walk with staff, ex staff, former staff, private detectives, faiths, other nations, cults, the media.
The UK had very different needs that just power from its reactors.
After the US stopped sharing nuclear projects with the UK, the need for mil and public nuclear research was fully funded.
"Information sharing ceases" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
"End of American cooperation" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
That has led the UK with some very different and unique production lines e.g. Sellafield/Windscale/Calder Hall, later Magnox reactors, the need for tritium production. A nice big military plutonium stockpile was created.
Most of the UK nuclear work is now to look after old sites, keep the staff ready to build new nuclear submarine servicing in England if the other UK sites won't stay open.
Every year the top US universities graduate a lot of really great students. They passed exams, know what the US engineering sectors expects.
The students can get security clearances, know the USA well and work hard. They have a deep understanding of systems and networks.
What is missing from the mix of students the US educates every year?
Are the top % of every year lacking something that every US university cant/won't teach and every US profession wants?
Have academic entry standards become so lax that very average students are been given top degrees for some reason? Making decades of US grades useless to any US profession?
Has US academic work drifted so far from what the best US brands and firms need? What are US students doing for a few years then?
Loans for a few years of campus in a holiday, party like setting? Scholarship not based on merit? Selected STEM but funding goes to arts and sport?
Why does the USA need to fly in, look after, hire and even grant citizenship later to very average workers from other nations?
What are other nations doing with education that can totally outclass every US student for generations?
Do other nations have some merit based Gymnasium https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/..., Institute of technology https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... schooling? Do other nations have merit based public school exams, schooling that only helps the very best students for decades?
What has happened to US exams and merit based advancement that cant offer US brands and firms what they need?
Slashdot Mirror
+1 for any good Thinkpad. A lot of the people who code seem to ensure most things are supported.
That must be for the few free nations the international authorities could not get into, so they just alter the internet a bit.
