Sounds like a good idea.
You are trying to protect your online banking from a hacker on the other side of the world, not a family member looking over your shoulder. So a long complex password written down is better than a short memorable password that you never change.
That had a kickstarter campaign to get the first units built and to "build a community of developers" then sold themselves to Google.
So you get to build your innovative product around Occulus - so long as it benefits Google, fits Google's plans, gives 40% to the play store and will be cancelled with no notice if Google feel like it
Still waiting for Blair and Bush to turn up at the Hague.
Funny that in 70years the international criminal court had convicted 2 world leaders; Donitz for ending WWII and some guy from a little tin pot African country that forget to sign minerals for weapons deals with a superpower.
Suppose the government in the 1930s had been gathering holiday photos so it had evidence of you kissing somebody in public.
Just so that if you said anything nasty about the Germans ( and so compromised the chances of British industry getting the contracts for those new shower blocks) it would have something to leak to the tabloids.
MobileIron claims that it offers a full management system for data on your mobile devices.
Unless they can prove that this hack was somehow able to post messages, send email and wipe the devices but somehow wasn't able to "fully manage" the data - you should assume that they slurped everything.
Suppose the only result that came up when an employer Googled your name was the conviction for nicking booze 20years ago - because Google gives more weight to a "real" newspaper than your blog about your work rescuing kittens. The conviction is spent and doesn't appear on a police record, but does appear on the HR manager's phone.
Obviously there won't be any $20,000 routers this time.
Now that we know that we need to avoid any HW made in china for security reasons, and any routers used in schools need to be terrorist proof they will need to cost a little more - but we have to be safe
Safe rockets use liquid fuel.
The Apollo era Saturn V rockets used liquid fuel as did the Shuttle main engines because Nasa only allowed liquid fuel for man rated missions. But the shuttle got a bit heavy and so they added a couple of solid fuel boosters.
They were perfectly safe because Nasa changed the rules to allow solid fueled manned flights
>it is our taxes that are paying for these inefficiencies. The money saved can be better spent elsewhere
Such as on dole for all the people made redundant ?
Look at the shining model of the South Yorkshire coalfield.
Spend 10x as much as you used to spend on subsidizing coal on dole, inward investment grants, regional development grants, depressed area grants, extra policing, extra healthcare etc.
And 20years later you still have an area that s completely fucked.
But at least you now have millions of quid going to Moscow to pay for the gas you are using instead. Well done comrade Thatcher - have an Order of Lenin
They seem happy to do the same thing if the suspect you haven't used your real name on Google+, or if there is some copyright background music in your home video on youtube.
This is simple you request a page removed, they pass it onto the courts, the court declare which page is removed. If Google can't keep up with the data flows resulting from individual court judgements - its probably in the wrong business
>“I am not aware of any exceptional circumstances which would justify a departure from the neither >confirm nor deny principle in relation to the alleged Tempora
What about when foreign companies stop basing themselves in London because of the assumption that all their data will immediately be copied to the USA? What about when Airbus stops allowing Brits anywhere near their designs because GCHQ will copy them to the NSA who will hand them to Boeing?
I'm not sure that being seen as merely a US eavesdropping operation is exactly in line with Boris and Cameron's new digital tentacles London - or perhaps it is!
