  1. Re:Gear without his face? on Wikileaks Opens Official Online Store · · Score: 1

    How is that ignorant? Are you saying these people are not weirdos?

  2. YAY! Take the future and make it suck! on eBook Lending Library Launched · · Score: 4, Funny

    This is a winning concept. Take the best aspect of digital information and remove them. Next up: Slowing computers to one operation per second and adding the soothing clicky noise an abacus makes, then make a few cell phones without batteries that can only be used while connected to a power cord.

    "To: undisclosed-recipients"

    That's not suspicious at all. :P

  10. Re:So true on The Death of BCC · · Score: 1

    When sending an email to a group of recipients whose email addresses you do not want to disclose to each other. Even when the fact you have copied them is not secret, their actual address should be kept in confidence in many situations.

  11. Re:H.264 on Will Google Oppose DRM On HTML5 Video? · · Score: 1

    They still couldn't pack it into Chromium and license the result as BSD, like it is now.

    North Corea?

  17. Re:Why not just throttle the propagation? on How To Crash the Internet · · Score: 1

    Completes the attack on the node - but negates the global doomsday scenario this article paints. That kind of local damage can be routed around, that's the point of BGP.

  18. Why not just throttle the propagation? on How To Crash the Internet · · Score: 2

    I gather that while one individual router is taken down by an ordinary DDoS (which is difficult to fend off), the global cascade effect results from BGP traffic generated by the attacked router. If the router just waited a while before announcing itself after reconnecting, it would strain the surrounding routers a lot less.
    The neighboring routers could do the same - simply wait before propagating any changes, and suddenly out of a hundred BGP updates per minute coming in from the affected link, only a single one is passed on.

    The infrastructure would be somewhat slower to respond to sudden changes, but those aren't supposed to happen regularly anyway.

    On second thought, it seems Sony has learned from the AACS fiasco.

    That private key is a whole four bytes longer than the 09-f9 one!

    (Though until they make one longer than 140 bytes, they're pretty much screwed.)
