Surely the TOR protocol is equivalent encryption to SSL/TLS and thus only the exit node or one with the exit node's private key can read any traffic for the hidden service?

I thought the purpose of TechCrunch was content farming and search engine spamming for startups they have a vested interest in.

Arbitrary changes? But then how can we ensure that you are charged the proper price for tethering bandwidth versus phone bandwidth? How can we ensure you are paying the right price to blacklist phone numbers? My goodness what if you remove

The rest of the magazine would be like, "patio11's dos and don'ts of summer SEO", "can lisp trim your application's waistline?", and "infosec schadenfreude! how to protect your app". viz., HN.

My favorite title of all time is Tim Ferriss's "How to Learn but not Master any Language in 1 Hour". All others are merely vying for disingenuous second place. I guess it is all about marketing your blog posts.

That's not what you asked, you asked "would you be happy".

You are not correct on this one. Intent is greatly meaningful in life and under the law. Commercial intent with a derivative work is not inevitable, nor is their growth inevitable.

They define terrorist pretty loosely anyway, so it'd be hard for all "terrorists" to be totally unaffected by the leaks, thus making their statement "true" or, rather, least untrue.

It's infringement and it's fine that the content owners send out their C&D's. I doubt there is any malice, though. I seems more like they just loved the game and want it to continue in some form than they are trying to ge

I think you meant to write > Unless you're interested in startups (that Arrington has a personal stake in) generally. > Or if you want to learn about new companies (that Arrington has a personal stake in). et cetera.

Unless I am mistaken, they won't let you do two-factor auth at all unless you put a phone number first.

As you say, I did mean preferred stock. You caught me before my edit :) I still stand by the assertion that investors are looking for something different than the typical employee. It seems to be a large risk for a large reward; I don't wan

Mark each arena with the last time something was collected from it and just skip sweeping old pages until X cycles have passed? Just thinking out loud... that check wouldn't save time for half-pages of old objects.

Unless the OP will be getting a significant portion of preferred stock (viz. it won't be clawed back and it will receive money in the exit), I doubt that evaluating the company as an investor would is a good idea. Piggybacking on the YC fil

Fair enough, but I had an edge case where I wanted to use Pentadactyl, and it kept using the branded search as default no matter how I tried to tweak the settings. I eventually got rid of it, but it was infuriating for me that there was no

I eventually got it, but I did end up doing the registry and mucking out some bits in /etc. Then I figured, "hey, I haven't tried Debian yet." So that's probably my next step... but it's looking like if you want it done right you're going t

I know, but I wanted Google, and I found it difficult to remove the branded search and switch to basic Google. It's not a ridiculous complaint, I just think if they are willing to treat their users like that it will only get worse in the fu

It is a source of funding, which would be fine with me, but it was also basically unusable, and it would give me weird results that I didn't get on regular Google. I also had a bit of trouble removing it. So bad experience for me overall. E

I tried Mint for the same reason, and this search default really soured me on it. I didn't find it easy to remove, either. Just wanted to warn others.

I did not find it trivial to remove the package, and changing my default provider didn't work for whatever reason.

For anyone thinking of trying Mint; they will install customized search engines in your Firefox and Chromium, it is a shit experience, and it is irritating to remove or avoid. I would suggest you do not use Mint if you plan on doing any

This should not be a tax. The industries involved are already buying unjust laws from Congress, none of us needs Congress giving them more money to do so.
