In 2013, Sweden tried to drop Assange extradition but the English Crown Prosecution Service dissuaded them from doing so.

Why not put FF in App Store? I'd even pay for clean, no "integrations", version.

Linux / OpenBSD with open source wifi drivers, if that is even a thing. Snatch some Atheros or Realtek chips before they disappear.

> The problem is that there is no law that clearly empowers governmental actors to obtain court orders to compel third parties (such as equipment manufacturers and service providers) to configure their systems to allow the government to obtain the plain text
That kinda sums the article, but US Gov always finds ways to compel anyone to anything. Raw power. Takeaway is to be your own equipment manufacturer and service provider, as in cheap mini x86 boxes running open source daemons, over proxychains and VPNs. Rotate equipment, hacked wifi APs and identities monthly, use Signal on iOS and hide in the crowd, because if you're on the watch list, game is over. Cyberpunk at its best.

Not if you access tor over VPN. VPN hides all traffic from ISP and Gov. Obviously, make sure your browser does not use Google or Cloudflare DNS.

Yeah, but bullets a dumb and cheap. The multi $M rocket with radar, guidance should have at least 90% hit rate against SCUD like big target. Agree, not an easy task for Mach 5 SCUD.
Re:Roundoff Error and the Patriot Missile (1992)
on Sunday September 22, 2019 @07:38PM (#21044700)
I read further down, and it got more interesting. Success rate is claimed from 95% by ones to below 10% by others. "standard firing doctrine on average four Patriots were launched at each incoming Scud .. suggests low confidence in individual missiles".
