For something like CloudFlare which in itself is designed to be a security filter as well as a CDN, having people able to touch the origin server (if they can find it) would be highly undesirable.

An Australian one is fine in the UK, you can even drive using one.

Can users see this flag?

I didn't mean to suggest that at all, I was commenting on the concept of having executable keyboards outside of the usual application sandbox rather than yours in particular.

So "Material Design" is "Flat Design" with shadows? I'm not sure I can quite get used to this particular theme at all. The colors are pretty gaudy, the main action buttons (brown and purple) particularly are almost

iOS8 keyboards still make me very uncomfortable. How many of them contain keyloggers? It's not even if I have one installed, the people I communicate with will be using them too, and they can compromise me.

They also publicly display everything you do with it.

Especially as it's actually executing code on other people's computers, you can't even really say it's just observation at that point.

The "instructions" at the start of the app are a bit baffling. I spent a good few minutes looking at a screen that told me to tap and drag and a weird orange circle that keys popping up above the capture button. In fact the entire

The purchasing of this product presents a high risk of potential thought-crime.

Under that definition a lot of things are too dangerous to own. That libc you're packing? You're heading for jail for that, you potential criminal.

It's unreasonable to expect that of people. URLs are maddeningly maddling to parse even if you know what is going on, if you don't it's almost impossible to explain it. Why is ebay.com.au different to ebay.com.au.edgesuite.ne

That's correct. Archive Team was working on it but their crawlers got banned. TwitPic said something along the lines of them having a better solution, which I suppose was this.

It's free as in "freemium". Unusable unless you spend a tonne of money on lots of little in-app purchases.

What's the driver support for dot matrix printers like in linux these days?

People are going to be mighty confused if they try to use that, imgur re-encodes all of it's images uploaded.

You use your fingerprint to activate the NFC, so they'd have to bash you over the head and cut off your fingers presumably.

That's mine too, an iCloud backup is pretty much keys to the kingdom. Could also just have been that they had access for a very long time and downloaded data multiple times in that period without being detected.

2FA does not protect iCloud data at all, it would have done nothing here.

I mainly play games rather than watching filmed content, which it seems makes my use case a little bit more sensitive than other people's.

The square interface on the round watch is pretty weird. I didn't expect to see square interface elements being lopped off the sides. The software seems to be almost a complete afterthought, I would have expected at least some innovati

I looked at 4K TVs recently, and if you look through the advertising they're all 4K at 30hz (ie, totally worthless for viewing anything on) due to the limitations of HDMI 1.4.

It doesn't hold up to SSL stripping very well. As we are working under the assumption of a compromised host, the absence of a signature on the Trezor when you don't expect one wouldn't raise any suspicion. The omnipotent host

Double check it against what information source? The malicious software has altered the one shown on both devices. They will of course match, but not with the one you're actually meant to be paying to.[0][1] [0]: http://www.

Nothing stops a threat from just lying and waiting for you to expose a large number of passwords. Having one stolen doesn't raise red flags in itself. I don't think signed addresses will be particularly effective. With the sort of

It doesn't matter. If you have malware lurking in your computer it will just snarf your passwords from the wire and then you're owned all the same. If you use some sort of auth signing system, the request can just be intercepted a

There's been stories for a while of massive malware infections sniffing usernames and passwords of infected users. Simply because there's little to give away that such an activity is going on (ie, if you were spamming or mining bi
