I've always been doubtful of OSX's crypto. At least with the past versions I was always worrying about side channel attacks. Merely using encryption on your home folder is obviously going to leak information to unencrypted portions of the d

The author states Lion’s default Python install is a healthy Python 2.7.1. I have personally had an unreasonable amount of trouble installing and using Python libraries and environments on Snow Leopard. I think right now I have at least 3

I've never used I2P, but Tor also has hidden services, which can only be accessed through the network and do not require exit nodes. I imagine both Tor and I2P use similar routing schemes to achieve "anonymity". http://www.torproject.org/d

I was under the impression that previous rulings with regards to safes and keys did not carry over to combinations, i.e. one could be compelled to surrender a key but not the combination to a safe. Whatever the case, I think it's foolish to
