GPS clocks have lots of vulnerabilities and can be attacked easily. If you are in a stock exchange you to run rife is you spoofed a GPS signal. They also have limitations as to where they can be placed. The antenna length has limited reach and can't be too long either.
I have an idea for a PTP clock that I think would cost less than US$100 to make and would be unbeatable in terms of accuracy and security. The device would be placed on a PCIe board for ease of integration.
Using Google service carries such a risk, whether publish, or undocumented, actived, core or non core.... Google will pull the plug at any minute. Their technology is ideal if you want built in obsolescence you are delivering to a customer.
Use Google API/service Deploy at customer Wait until it gets cancelled. Redo with something else Profit$$$
I use to trade a lot of cisco equipment either used or parallel channel.
All the equipment that we sold were untargetable, as we didn't place orders with CIsco. We bought what ever someone had in their warehouse, then we sold it to our customer. No one knows who our end user was.... sometimes not even us. some companies where very cagy telling us anything....
On our site we did a comparison between our local stats and Google analytics, we found that so many people are blocking them ithere was a skew that fluctuated between 5 to 15% from day to day....
o I think it is pointless to use it as many of my friends will never join Google + due to privacy and tracking issues of putting your data with Google...
So that means I will have to check two sites or choose to cut off the people that matter,, something I would rather not do, so.
I've used PEPlink and they are good.... Recommend them, service was good, though they did bring me one which had a hardware problem.
They have some pretty good load balancing policies, but there was some wacky idea I had which it wouldn't do.
If someone is looking for clever inbound traffic balancing without BGP google that in week or so... actually it is something similar to my DNS racing... (sorry my blog is currently down).
Between this Sidewiki, and Google's counter lawsuit to to Android trademark owner where the line of what the meaning of Google's "do no Evil" mantra means is very very blurred.
Could those of you who are not using free storage or Google services give their opinion...
Is it evil to:. hire the lead engineer of much a smaller competing product, from whom who you have copied the product?
It should be frowned upon because it is unethical to go around and try to poach staff....
Google is the larger player with the largest user base around so, in your "sold out view", it should be OK to hurt the small player so the mass market can get something for free right?
I've personally been in the same situation as this company but in our case it was microsoft. They didn't get too far.
We could argue about Google turrning into "the old microsoft",..... but what we should look at it how Google thanks to its, generosity in storage and services has bought the positive vote from the masses. Internet users will forgive and ignore mistakes and literally harmful things Google does, privacy, down times, being a spam favourite spam, source and destination, how they enter into industries and destroy them with their deep pockets.
The fact that the majority of people here are getting something for free out of Google clouds their view. The excuses and justifications given on behalf of the company are rife. "It is not illegal, You try doing it better, You try doing it cheaper" etc...
It is going to take a long time until Google gets a fair hearing.
As for this case we don't have all the details, however being a small company you would not go and attack a giant like Google if you had some valid claim.
You are already bound to handing out your privacy with many sites online. So what is the difference?
All that they ave to do is make you feel they are your friend, like give you free petrol or some gimmick you perceive has value, which you will preferably not use.
Follow Googles Gmail model, Instead of giving a discount they should give people free petrol. People prefer tot receive than to save. As Gmail has proven will sell our their privacy for receiving something.
Every time google is covering it ass because it has got caught out, it seems that most Slashdoters think it is perfectly fine. When ever any other company is caught doing something similar it gets roasted.
I understand that it gives us lots of email storage and a lots of nice services for free. Are we being fair and un-biased?
There is one thing with making cash. But when at the time when these guys were very active probably 1/4 1/5 1/6 registrations where from these spammers you are clearly supporting their operations. Especially when their whois records submitted are clearly fake.
It is short sighted to do this as there is going to be implications.
HKDNR previous laxed policies (profit centered) of anything goes means that there is still a pile of domains out there that are used by non-HK people for dodgy purposes.
Spammers and also lots of China companies use HK domains to ride of HK's reputation as financial center and a country/region with solid legal infrastructure and gain a persons trust.
Spammers used them as originating addresses to get spam through.
If you google on HKDNR you will see lots of posts claiming that it supports or lets spammers and criminals use its domains for anything.
The regulations have changed which allows the registrar to strike off any domain seen doing anything bad. Still that does not mean that there isn't a load of dormant or active domains being used for or will be used for non-legit purposes.
Now even the stupid goverment has started to stop using.gov.hk domains and using.hk Duh!
If you are doing business in HK note that.com.hk registrations require for companies to file the companies Business registration certificate. After a decade in Hong Kong I can confirm that never anyone with.com.hk has ripped our company off.
Bless HKDNR they seem to able to immaculately execute every single cock up in the book. A couple of years ago they managed to delete half of the domains off the.com.hk zone. Bless them.

Boooya.
As a non US citizen I think I am going to come across as a troll.... by making this coment.
America is in great danger, China is going to take over the world and you should live in fear and prepare for war...
...to for Google to best look at the pictures in your drive.

You don't give data away, it is mostly taken away from you. Your email, your browsing all profiled.
It is highly profitable to abuse privacy or in some cases you can convince them with something of perceeived value.
Just look at the Gmail model, it is one of the strongest business models out there, it is the future.
God stop being naive.

The history, t his blog. Well worthwhile site. I find looking at his panoramic photos very relaxing.
Yeahh I know my post is not relevant.
160MB so what!
A few years back HKBN was touted as the worlds most advances metroethernet broadband provider. They are also a big cisco site.
I think they had 1Gbit to the home in early 2007
