Are you referring to the people who like to hate on it or the people using it?

What are you getting out of this? He worked on php and look how far it came, what have you done?

Your own website was written in php which you took down due to a security vulnerability in a framework... now is it php fault that someone wrote vulnerable code?

"Temporarily offline due to Drupal security vulnerability."

It won't happen again again /s
The app its self is the weakness not the protocol. But also the article says "that exploited a flaw in WhatsApp-owned servers to help clients hack into the cellphones".

Asks a real question about whats precious cargo, downvoted.
Re:Mass Driver on Friday October 25, 2019 @02:08PM (#21357623)
What defines precious cargo? Satellites and astronauts seem to do alright going into space attached to a giant rocket, but I will admit I'm not well versed on the forces created from a electromagnetic launcher.
Re:Don't Use VPN Services on Tuesday October 22, 2019 @07:33PM (#21329575)
Correct, the endpoints are the weakness. My point was about being more difficult to find and not bringing attention by paying for a vpn service, a vps could be anything.
Re:Don't Use VPN Services on Tuesday October 22, 2019 @07:09PM (#21329390)
Well if you are really after anonymity, you have to also keep in mind your isp and browser fingerprinting and the million other things that can expose you online. :)

Well like others have said before, the company most likely wont go down in flames in order to protect you. Not all, but I assume the major providers will roll over.
Re:Don't Use VPN Services on Tuesday October 22, 2019 @06:13PM (#21328981)
Simply layers obscurity, it would be harder to subpoena multiple companies than a single vpn service. (Plus you "own" the vps and can quickly delete or create new services whenever) Before you browse, create a new vpn box, browse..., then delete the box after use. What logs, what box?
Re:Don't Use VPN Services on Tuesday October 22, 2019 @05:59PM (#21328876)
When the vpn company is subpoenaed because someone saw suspicious traffic coming out of their servers, regardless of the number of people, the logs and connections would point directly to you.
Why haven't they banned other police tracking apps like waze?

This is certainly technology gone berserk...this wont end well for anyone (maybe the ones that sue for illegal streaming)
Do people actually care about karma?
The photos were transferred to a subcontractor’s network and later stolen through a “malicious cyberattack,” a CBP spokesperson told TechCrunch in an email.

Anyone think they approved the security of that subcontractor before giving sensitive information to them?

More importantantly, why is that type of data leaving CBP in the first place?

Unless you dont want to access to whatever is behind a sites captcha, you are signing up to solving their ai cv problems.

Then he will become an idiot, without capital, whats your point?
Why couldn't it, you dont think software updates can improve performance across the board? But his point was developers could focus on a single api rather than having to deal with quirks in directx, opengl, vulkan, webgl, etc.
They most likely wont be released, but the hope is that google contributes to open source like vulkan, linux video drivers, graphics rendering, as well as potentially release their own tooling.
Interesting to hear about this lack of boundaries among Israelis, is this only for non-Israelis or do you/they cross each others boundaries? Is this a cultural thing, why do you think this the case?
>(at least at this point) Everything is incremental
