"Almost certainly" without even basic proof, just picked from nose.
Especially knowing, that in our modern age much more decent methods of communications exist.
So agent have to compromise himself buying receiver capable to tune 4625Khz (thats not easy to find), tune to this frequency and listen each day, raising even more suspicions.
While even at good old times they was reading newspapers or listening to local radio for steganographic-like messages, which looks much more innocent.
Absolutely theoretically - this frequency might be, as many others. And buzzer just may work to make sure frequency is not used by anyone else.
But transmitter definitely not, because it will be extremely stupid to run such component continuously, it will be destroyed on first strike. And if it activates dead hand on destruction, then some terrorists might destroy it as well, and trigger noke war.
So, most likely - no. One more myth.
One more nonsense, i guess just to fuel current trend about "those strange russians". This is typical (post-)apocalypse radio, that will coordinate militaries and probably civilians in case of extraordinary disasters. Note: most probably non-war related, because sites of transmitters are known, and easy to destroy.
AM receivers for such frequency usually very robust, they are installed in many cities in military enlistment office(voenkomat) and easy to make.
Buzzing and etc is just making sure noone else occupy frequency, sometimes(rarely) it is used for other communications, but nothing extraordinary.
P.S. Old transmitter side abandoned in 2010, there is several new, at least 3.
Because hysteria attract viewers, improve ratings
More viewers = more money for ads
Who cares that world may fall apart in nuclear tornado, media bosses pockets are more important.
I noticed last week or so "Russia this, Russia that" hysteria, rumours and manipulations appeared here, something strange, as they don't contain any credible information, even anything interesting for geek, just gossips - and it's trending in traditionally geeky website.
Slashdot was safe harbor for me for more than a decade from filthy political news and "news for housewives".
Seems its time to put dot and say bye bye?
P.S. Yes i'm russian, and i hate politics and propaganda. Peace!
The only thing did Pornhub - they require authentication by social network. Thats truth.
Requiring passport is manipulation of facts and lies at the end. How it is called, fake news? Is slashdot turned to fake news?
Here is why:
Social network need telephone number, mostly against spam, but not specifically russian telephone number. There is many neighbouring countries who sell SIM cards without passport.
Plus, in Russia there is black market in any metro station entrance and you can buy telephone number without any passport.
The only who will have problems to obtain such sim cards - very young children.
But still, they use their own number parents give to them, register another account (it's allowed), and just specify adult birthday date in social network, and free to go to access adult website.
When companies will bear responsibility for flaws in such features, as AMT encrypted and obfuscated from 3rd party analysis and management, and enabled by default, and for such screw ups they will pay hefty fines, they will think twice, before making features work such way.
Does that guys really can think it is much more practical to destroy all data in memory chips(even it might burn all semiconductors in chips, without physical outer damage) , and just such way will render phone useless , or they can't think out of scope "exploding suicidal phone"?
He forgot to mention, that major losses was caused by their ugly attack against George Hotz, because instead of learning lesson and improving security, they decided they can afford to bully young security researcher. Big mistake.
And i doubt it was done without his consent.
Don't be surprised, if everybody decide to demonize and ignore civil rights of some part of world for sake of "keep irritating russia" and "let's assume as humans only friendly to us dudes", definitely those in war zone will become even more rogue and do more and more nasty things.
Keep in mind, skilled IT workers there, and they need earn for living, so for sure some of them will fall in hands of gangs.
This bug need CAP_NET_ADMIN privileges, which are VERY rarely enabled for typical user, because they will let you screw network configuration and sniff on traffic (which is almost equal to root privileges in our networking days)
Lebanon, government close to non-exist(check news). Living here as a foreigner, and enjoying it. Yes it has some it's own problem, even while in middle of all problems - it's brilliant country.
Ok, ipv6, and any malicious website can quickly exhaust hardware capabilities of such "firewalls" on 1G+ speeds.
ACL entries are costly on such speeds.
It shows one more time, how retarded can be some politicians. Normal households have 40-200GB/month traffic, which is insane $24 - $124 extra per month. I hope Hungarians will kick him out for good.
P.S. I am sure, if they can, they will tax even air for breathing.
Looks like typical geiger tube used, and typical circuit for it. What's "new" or "original" there? And definitely not low cost stuff, but poorly built (all that hanging wires).
Also his microcontroller memory most probably will fail on serious radiation, and if not stop working, then may give invalid data.
I understand detecting alpha particles in the tin can over FET transistor can be MUCH cheaper than those (but more for alpha, again), and similar original ideas.
Exactly. With all this ecstasy from revolution, people should look a bit which statements Praviy Sector and Svoboda made before.
Before revolution they said several times, that Russia, Poland and several other countries own their territory, plus their hymn include "russians on knifes" and "ukraine for ukrainians". Now guess, what will happen when they have nukes.
I was shocked, when i so how their "activists" attacked veterans of WWII, 80+ year old people, in 2011, Lviv. Check youtube for that.
In case Dell used speakers that are not rated even for their motherboard amplifier - it is trivial to detect audio clipping that VLC cause, just a plain resistor and current sensing circuit, or a comparator on output circuit and it will be easy to shut it, before speaker got damaged.
In car industry it will be a recall and faulty items will be replaced by modified ones, with "bugfix".
But it is very known - freaks like HP and Dell prefer to charge customers for each sneeze, and as soon as you paid and took your product - you are on your own. No bugfixes, no support, no improvements.
I guess it can be only gulf countries and i'm in one of them right now (most restricted country, hehe). Please take a note, that they are tracking VPN activity, and some countries who block VoIP, can block your VPN too, if they suspect you use it for VoIP. I recommend PCI compliant VPN, to PCI certified hosting, if you want to do banking. E.g. if you want to go serious way, find collocation (PCI compliant!), let's say 1/4 of rack, put there VPN router (also, again,compliant), and your side too.
Note, that some services like Netflix, PS3 videos wont work for IP's from hosting, because some people from other countries use this way to get US address, and services are blocking all hosting IP ranges, so you have to test it first.
Sure you can go cheaper way, it won't be compliant, but still very secure. Let me know if you need more information.
Now using my electronics how i want is "certainly not a guaranteed right". WTF. Thats why we had DIY talents before, who was building companies in garage, and now we have army of "angry bird" players, because it is not easy to create something this days.
You can't reuse electronic parts. SMD. You need expensive tools to do that. Well, ok, let's say it is ok.
You can't reuse blocks and highly integrated IC's, because there is NDA for documentation and high fees to get this documentation.
And now, finally, soon you can't write your own low-level software, because your PC manufacturer will decide, what you can run, and what you can't.
I hope my car one day will not tell me, which road i can take, and which one i'm not allowed to go, because my car don't have license for offroad.
Probably if IP address will be shared with other resources (who are not related at all to Pirate Bay), it will be illegal to block the IP.
Let's see what they will do with that. In case they block by IP, resource are free to sue ISP who blocked ip - for damages.

Or maybe some ARM dudes?
It's really purely politics, IMHO. If someone have chance to do something good, he should not give up trying to do so.

I'm quite sure US&Russia will veto that. Especially US.

All in one, just great!
Now he is accused in uninstalling windows and installing Linux?

To be more exact it should be successful project.

Megaupload had _dedicated_ servers. And for sure their ip's was not shared.
