The United States has been working on a coup for Maduro, since its coup of Chavez hasn't worked out for it. This time it would really like to install Leonardo Lopez as he's willing to privatize Venezuelan oil to US…
Like China's "One Belt, One Road"?
I bet corruption will remain. But it's my understanding its been drastically reduced. No positive news of China gets upvoted in America though, because we are burned that they are winning the trade war.
Can you document that for me, and for HN?
Right but 'they reached too far during Windows 8' isn't an argument for reaching too far on Windows 10 (plus, Windows 8 really wasn't that long ago so it's still a pretty new policy).
The fact is that there is a greater East-West struggle going on right now. It was Saddam. Now it is Assad. Next it may be Rouhani. The Middle East is caught between Eurasia and Europe: the East's plans to move Westward…
Israel, especially with its technological superiority, Western backing and Iron Dome, would most certainly win. Would still be quite costly.

Inalienable rights. Not civil rights. Inalienable rights are human rights - which extend (at least in theory) to foreigners. I read the story. But anyway if the Supreme Court ruling holds from Zimmerman it would apply…
Aren't cyberarms arms? Isn't the right to bear arms an 'inalienable right'? I don't get it. And I don't get why this is a 'privacy' or 'free speech' issue or why corporations, as Google argues, should be exceptions to…
Well they are trying to destabilize the regime - I didn't provide data on that. (Would you like some?) The anthrax thing is reporting facts. I didn't say that the US IS organizing this. I didn't say NK was RIGHT about…
How difficult is it to configure this? Users should definitely choose passphrases of sufficient length and sufficient types to be secure. This is unfortunately an infamously tricky area of security to get right.
Nice! Of course this isn't ever actually used - in practice users choose four to eight digit passcodes. Users should, if they want to secure their information, use a randomly chosen passcode of approximately 30 digits…
I see. Is there a limit? Does it approach 128 bits?
Four digits, choice of 10 for each digit. log(10000)/log(2) ~ 15.
Giving your data to a third party is a very difficult thing to do. Either their policies and heuristics are not perfect (like this article), they go under and you lose your data and service (probably not the case now…
Yes. Sure. The US arrested hundreds of journalists from covering Occupy, leading to a sharp drop in it's Freedom of Press score (I don't trust that metric, but other people seem to like it). They also put a media…
The US absolutely does censor group organization efforts in the US and political speech as well. What the US does is quite different than China and it faces quite a different set of challenges than China. It's an apples…
The ISIS example is far more complicated. It's part of information warfare. ISIS is of course partially supported by the US government for the purposes of destabilizing the Assad regime. But we don't want it in Iraq -…
The political elite seriously see absolutely no difference. There are a number of directions we could go to expand on that.
A Russian spam site called StopFastTrack? The US use the term 'spam' and 'trolling' as code to mean foreign propaganda. I can get you more information about that as well.
Well it's not irrelevant tu quoque. Telegram is like ZunZuneo and other initiatives by Western governments to force their adversary to choose to either censor something and take a PR hit or have their countrymen…
I agree with this. Sometimes I get brigaded and I feel the urge to call out the immaturity. For references, here's an example of a website that was simultaneously blocked on a bunch of providers because it matched…
It's true. Downvotes don't change that.
The United States censors links to foreign propaganda as well. They DDOS sites sometimes, especially ISIL-active forums, etc. I don't know if they DDOS state sponsored sites - they are probably more stealthy (something…
