Actually, looks like they took away the ability to use Twitter and it's Facebook exclusive.

I agree with Mark that it's not worth beating up Canonical over a bureaucratic slip up. Latching on to simple mistakes that are the result of internal miscommunication and misinterpretations of policy is foolish. And ideologues (especi

I think people are glad, sure. It's just that their highly skeptical of anything the government does anymore. With good reason.

It's just a bunch of bureaucrats in a room. They've got their Standard Operating Procedures, and react accordingly. They're just cogs, and all the real decisions come from the higher ups. All the hardware in that room is proc

Impressive presentation, if you're trying to show off. Terrible otherwise, and the content is just dumb. David Kushner has always struck me as one of those superficial tech journalists who writes about it all the time, but largely avoi

Can't wait for all the wannabe-startup-bros to start throwing those terms around now when they're looking for coders. "Hey man, wanna come forked on my awesome new idea? Send me your pull request and let's get started!&q

The NSA can't trust 'brilliant' people huh? Worried that they might be acting against the NSA's best interest? Weird! I can't possibly imagine how they feel! Nope, not at all! It's not like I have a secretive

Technology doesn't wreck the middle class, but it certainly enables America's corporate bureaucracy to cut as many costly human labor positions as it can. We could counteract that if invested in our educational system, and I mean

It's obviously meant as an approximation. Look, you can believe it or not, but that's just your opinion. Everybody gets to make up their mind for themselves.

How are they well-positioned? I don't mean to sound crass, but what has Facebook ever done that makes you think they're well-positioned? They're pretty much a software/advertising company. Sure, they have their Open Comp

You're right. I pretty much just blurted out the first thing that came to my mind when I read about it, and what I said was equivalent to garbage. It was completely uncalled for and I apologize to everybody in this forum for lowering t

You're right. I apologize for my remark. It was crass and uncalled for.

It's mission creep. Law enforcement will always demand more power in pursuit of what they see as their goal of stopping the bad guys. Trampling all over innocent peoples' civil liberties is unfortunate to them, but they will never

You're extracting some sort of context that I did not make, and that you're attributing a quote to me that I never said makes me thing that you didn't bother to even digest my statements. If anything here is silly and worthle

Wow, such vitriol. Let me guess, you're a big Ubuntu fan, and my assertion about privacy offended you and your clan. Now you're trying to peg me as some sort of moral absolutist. Well, I'm not, I just do what I can do when it

This is cool. Finally, a Linux distro that I could set my less-than-technical friends and family with. (Why not Ubuntu, you might ask? Simple: Ubuntu ships off their users' desktop search results to Amazon by default. I know it can be

Obama proposes nothing of the sort. All he's proposing is a fresh coat of paint over the same policies and procedures in an attempt to make it seem like it seem like Obama cares about civil liberties and privacy, but he really doesn&#x

Cutting sysadmins by 90% is a big indicator. There's also been a lot of talk from former NSA about security risks involved with contractors with top secret security clearances. The writing is on the on wall.

Don't get me wrong. I think Snowden is a patriot, but read between the lines here. Security breaks at the interface, and for the NSA, it broke at the interface between itself and it's contractors. Snowden was a Booz Allen Hamilton

Any other Obama supporters out there so utterly disappointed in this administration? Call me naive, but good god this is depressing. Seems like the country at large is so much more willing to let this stuff slide because it's not Bush&

Wasn't so much about him being the first black President as much as him not being Bush/Cheney et. al. Still pretty premature of them since Obama ended up adopting and ramping up many of the foreign policies that made Bush/Che
