savethefuture··on 25 Years of PHP
I asked what you did. Then asked if drupals security was phps fault.

Are you seriously this butthurt about a function name, look up where the name came from originally. I also wonder what magical perfect language you use, dont tell me its php...

Not sure where you're going with the rest of this comment so I wont entertain that part. whew...

savethefuture··on 25 Years of PHP
Are you referring to the people who like to hate on it or the people using it?
savethefuture··on 25 Years of PHP
What are you getting out of this? He worked on php and look how far it came, what have you done?

Your own website was written in php which you took down due to a security vulnerability in a framework... now is it php fault that someone wrote vulnerable code?

"Temporarily offline due to Drupal security vulnerability."

savethefuture··on NSO hacked WhatsApp to spy on top government officials at U.S. allies
The app its self is the weakness not the protocol. But also the article says "that exploited a flaw in WhatsApp-owned servers to help clients hack into the cellphones".
savethefuture··on Mass Driver
Asks a real question about whats precious cargo, downvoted.
savethefuture··on Mass Driver
What defines precious cargo? Satellites and astronauts seem to do alright going into space attached to a giant rocket, but I will admit I'm not well versed on the forces created from a electromagnetic launcher.
savethefuture··on Don't Use VPN Services
Correct, the endpoints are the weakness. My point was about being more difficult to find and not bringing attention by paying for a vpn service, a vps could be anything.
savethefuture··on Don't Use VPN Services
Well if you are really after anonymity, you have to also keep in mind your isp and browser fingerprinting and the million other things that can expose you online. :)
savethefuture··on Don't Use VPN Services
Well like others have said before, the company most likely wont go down in flames in order to protect you. Not all, but I assume the major providers will roll over.
savethefuture··on Don't Use VPN Services
Simply layers obscurity, it would be harder to subpoena multiple companies than a single vpn service. (Plus you "own" the vps and can quickly delete or create new services whenever) Before you browse, create a new vpn box, browse..., then delete the box after use. What logs, what box?
savethefuture··on Don't Use VPN Services
When the vpn company is subpoenaed because someone saw suspicious traffic coming out of their servers, regardless of the number of people, the logs and connections would point directly to you.

savethefuture··on US Customs Database Of Traveler Photos Was Hacked And Stolen
The photos were transferred to a subcontractor’s network and later stolen through a “malicious cyberattack,” a CBP spokesperson told TechCrunch in an email.

Anyone think they approved the security of that subcontractor before giving sensitive information to them?

More importantantly, why is that type of data leaving CBP in the first place?

savethefuture··on Google's Captcha in Firefox vs. in Chrome

savethefuture··on Sony and Microsoft set rivalry aside for cloud gaming alliance
Why couldn't it, you dont think software updates can improve performance across the board? But his point was developers could focus on a single api rather than having to deal with quirks in directx, opengl, vulkan, webgl, etc.
savethefuture··on Sony and Microsoft set rivalry aside for cloud gaming alliance
They most likely wont be released, but the hope is that google contributes to open source like vulkan, linux video drivers, graphics rendering, as well as potentially release their own tooling.
savethefuture··on WhatsApp voice calls were used to inject spyware on phones
Interesting to hear about this lack of boundaries among Israelis, is this only for non-Israelis or do you/they cross each others boundaries? Is this a cultural thing, why do you think this the case?
