There was once even an easy to use software that shipped with an attack. It was called Firesheep and it let anyone skillful enough to install a browser extension get into the Facebook and Twitter sessions of anyone who shares the same netwo

That's kind of what Socrates did. Not everybody thinks it's acceptable (just look at how well it turned out for him), but it's important to challenge all beliefs.

Different indigenous people can share almost the same blood but have vastly different ethnicities, because ethnicity is cultural. Check your history.

To add (and replying to rco8786): I think this is not racism. Because ethnicity is not race, and almost everybody by now through mestizaje has native blood. The early colonial period might have a racist component with "sistema de casta

Mapuches you mean? Well, living in Chile, I've learnt that there's no racism here BUT: -There's classism, a lot. Both from the lower classes to the upper and vice versa. There's also a lot of anger left from the various

Well that's what bothers me too: You have no rights as a non-American person. The NSA could not care less about your privacy. I'm not a terrorist and yet the NSA can do whatever it wants with me, and that's scary.

Yes. Well, Android and most RHEL-derivated distros use SELinux and it can mitigate this kind of problems (assuming it is well configured) and Ubuntu has "AppArmor" but I don't know if it mitigates this issue as well.

It's a very interesting concept, because now in 2015 I've seen more and more things using technology and computers where they shouldn't be used. People seem to not understand that the gimmick feature that needs a computer jus

This actually makes me wonder: what if there's a false bomb report in the ISS? Akin to when some 12 year old prankster says in twitter that there's a bomb in flight XYZ123, will chaos happen up in the ISS?

Well, at least in my Spanish keyboard there are two functions for the SysRq key, as the keycap says: Impr. Pant. | Pet. Sis. -- which is expanded to --> Imprimir Pantalla | Petición a Sistema -- which translates to --> Prnt Scr | SysR

Some Chilean startup is trying to do something akin to that, embedding a big lock in the frame, so stealing the bike would render it useless (tho, of course, it's an urban-only bike). http://nadiemelaroba.cl

Yes, there is. Just not in the client side, it's server-to-server, and due to the centralised nature of IRC, it's critical. For example, here's a paragraph from the UnrealIRCd server protocol ( http://www.unrealircd

IRC: everything is timestamped to the subsecond. Any drifting causes channel takeovers and "random" nick kills, even links fail. Also, since a message from a server is broadcasted across the entire network, one misconfigured serve

I based that statement on what I saw in Michael Sandel's HarvardX (edX partner) Justice course. There's a lot of thought experiments and hypothetical situations premises are tested against to see if they still hold to be moral; re

As a fellow Chilean citizen I can just say: what?! Is it Transbank? Redcompra?

Indeed, it was a clever trick. But in no way was the attack "serious", just for the lols, I know the attacker and swatting is just another way to get lols.

Do you seriously don't know what "swatting" means? Somebody called SWAT on them, while he hacked into that machine. Nowhere was said that a SWAT operative was the hacker.
