To avoid any confusion it should be clear that these are the developers of btcd not bitcoin core.
As far as I know the only bitcoin core developer working on an altcoin is gavin andresen.
I'm thinking that's probably a violation of federal law and like most of the us legal system they are entirely reliant on prosecutorial discretion to avoid prison time.
I would assume the files are encrypted with a symmetric cipher like AES.
Known plaintext attacks are not very effective against symmetric ciphers.
Indeed they're designed to be resilient to chosen plaintext attacks.
This is WRONG.
Almost all 802.11 a/b/g/n devices will actively probe for ESSIDs that they have previously used.
Your phone is constantly broadcasting for access points.
Gold, really? eGold was a site that did paypal for gold, and failed miserably. Gold-to-cash is a constantly changing ratio, and can lead to gold holders to be quite poorer when the stock market is soaring... cash is better than gold most of the time.
eGold failed because they were engaged in fraud and straight up money laundering
The reason the federal student loan program exists is because it ISN'T profitable to make that loan. Most kids are going to default, and the banks will be left holding the bag.
you can default on student loans, but you can never be absolved of them.
The only risk in making a student loan is that the beneficiary dies before they can pay it back, which is generally speaking a sound bet.
The movie played at various film festivals and was released in italy, then they soft launched in the US. At this point there was huge demand to watch the movie but absolutely no legal way for 99% of the people to watch it.
I would guess that it's probably one of the most pirated movies of all time.
We're a developer group that is now writing a server library. We plan to
use it for commercial projects by putting all the code into the library
and creating a thin proprietary wrapper to keep clients happy.
It's a strategic move to use the LGPL, as if we used GPL then we'd have to
sell proprietary licenses. Proprietary people would choose to either:
Re-implement their own closed-source version of the software.
Buy a proprietary license from us and then not make the changes public.
This way (by using LGPL) we get to extract as much free source-code from
them as possible.
The problem now comes with the fact that our library can be used for web
services. People could make changes to our library, use them in their
commercial service and not make changes public.

Possession of child pornography is illegal in itself.
Given that how would they have the original image to match against?
StartSSL is great, but not entirely free of cost.
StartSSL certs are not free to commercial entities.
StartSSL charges for certificate revokation.

In all fairness the password was "notapassword," but still.
Except apple stores passwords for iTunes in plaintext.
I received an email from apple reminding me that i had $10 in iTunes funds availalble.
Only problem is where my username should have been was my password in plaintext.

So what they're saying is the only way they can stop bad guys with guns is good guys with guns. Gee where have I heard that recently....
This was demonstrated at DEFCON 20. He live demo'd rooting an android device using NFC to open the browser and a brwoser exploit to gain root. https://www.defcon.org/html/defcon-20/dc-20-speakers.html#Miller
This was done using https://code.google.com/p/simple-kinect-touch/ not the microsoft SDK.
Anybody who actually knows Amir would find that hilarious.
He isn't in this for the money, he has given away all of his bitcoins (and I mean ALL).
You're talking about a country that has to import refined oil because they lack the technical ability to refine crude oil.
There is no way in hell they're going to clone a stealth drone.
This would effectively make unions the only options for such workers.
Fucking scam artists.

No actually you cant.

You made a bad movie. Stop involving the lawyers and blaming everybody else.
They actually made an excellent movie.
However it was not available for purchase for 99% of the people who wanted to watch it, so people pirated it.
Shocking right?
The questions they ask and the available answers are fucking bullshit.
When you think about America’s energy needs, which of the following solutions come closest to your opinion?
Yesterday just happened to be the first big drop.
That is highly inaccurate, the price has dropped by order of magnitude more in the past relative to it's price at the time.
The cause of this is actually extremely simple, dwolla withdrawals from mtgox were down on mtgox for a few days, so nobody had any reason to sell BTC.
As soon as it came back up the volume of asks exploded.

I was searching the net and found these links:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/731246/lgpl-for-php-applications http://mohammed.morsi.org/blog/?q=node/270
The 2nd link claims you can just include an affero clause in the LGPLv3? What is your word on this?
Many thanks to the FSF. I love your work.
Bitcoins are not money.
You can fill up the gas tank in about a minute. You cant really do that with a battery pack.
