Singapore is a strange outlier among successful democratic countries. There's always stories that are untold. For example,

Operation Spectrum untracing the conspiracy' https://share.google/2mRpZk3RGaYUKCRXS

Is this similar to Briar? I reckon a cool feature would be the ability to create a poll.

Use case? You're in the middle of a protest. Where to next?

But how do you host services through CGNAT though?

Also a good way to detect hidden surveillance cameras at night.

So what happens if you're standing in the path of a milimeter wave beam from a tower trying to reach a user behind a wall?

While that's great, there should be instances where crawlers should ignore noindex directives. For example, all .gov sites.

And if you don't want to switch, there are things like privacy badger[1] and ghostery[2]? Although, strangely Privacy Badger does not seem to mention their chrome extension[3].

Isn't Shanghai sinking, https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2018/oct/05/from-lon...?

Or has that been solved?

Interesting. I didn’t know this was a problem. Kanji uses chinese characters. If sorting has been solved for chinese character, I’m assuming that the existence of Chinese dictionaries mean that sorting is no longer an issue, then why can’t the same method be used for kanji characters?

Scanning isn't going to work if its an IPv6 network. I would just use wireshark and the busy device would probably be your camera it it's on the network.

And probably don't use an IPv6 network if you're the host unless you want to hide a device on the network.

“No one uses IPv6 only."

I had a go using only IPv6 recently. What surprised me was the site that broke it for me. Github.com.

All because of a whistlerblower. http://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/justo-world-needs-good...

The world needs more whistlerblowers. Or at least better tools and protection for those who plan to do it

What bothers me is that if Facebook has to reengineer messenger to comply with the government then what’s stopping signal having to reengineer its infrastructure to comply with government demands?

And wouldn’t it be more secure to setup your own infrastructure instead of depending on someone else’s infrastructure where you are unable to determine with certainty that serverside code is unmodified?

Does anyone know how one could take part in these class action suits? And are they limited to US citizens only?

I'm all for the boycott of timber and palm oil products to end demand [1] for this destruction. But there's also the problem of the livelihoods of indigenous people [2]. But, at the same time, they are being exploited by the larger players [3].

IMO, here's a site that gives some pretty good analysis for countries around the world, https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-press/freedom-press-...

Edit: Sorry. https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-net/freedom-net-2017

What books or articles did you read? I found his course to be a little boring.

Not trying to say a little bit of cheating is fine but that's total number of retracted papers right? I can't seem to find a list that shows it as a percentage out of published papers for comparison with other countries. Is there one?

One thing UN's declaration of Human Rights doesn't seem to cover is the right to free will. http://www.un.org/en/universal-declaration-human-rights/

Perhaps it should?

I find it a little strange that people don't look into the reasons why terrorism exist. Wouldn't it be more efficient in trying to stamp out the root causes of terrorism?

People don't just wake up one morning and go, "Ah. Such a beautiful morning. I think I'll start terrorising people today."

Do they?

Reminds me of the lego sorting project, https://jacquesmattheij.com/sorting-lego-the-software-side

How is this any different from setting up a VPN? The user still needs technical knowledge to setup a server outside the GFW.

That would be this. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grass_Mud_Horse

You may want to check out https://mycroft.ai/. This one just works out of the box.

If you didn't know the agency exists, how would anyone know what to Google for?

You are right that work in these areas tend not to be hampered by technology. It sometimes may even be hazardous to ones health considering the value of timber. 20 years ago is a long time ago, GIS must be still at its infancy then. These days one could pull free satellite images from NASA and probably could just diff images if not for those pesky clouds. Oh wait actually I think NASA does do earth imagery at various spectral ranges, https://www.odysseyofthemind.com/aster.htm.

Curious to know what sort of methods you used then if you don't mind sharing.

Is the patent for Powerwall v2 available somewhere as well? As per https://www.tesla.com/blog/all-our-patent-are-belong-you? Just windering if it contains enough info for anyone to built a unit themselves.

Or maybe because there's research that shows that women tend to have girls when food is scarce.
