You can hire any kid, or homeless person, to drive across the US in a pos car. The wheels of industry won't stop if FedEx and UPS aren't there doing it. It's just another annoyance.
Blame it on BYOD. Network and systems types are being run ragged just keeping !@#$ talking to each other, and keep up with the security alerts all this junk generates.
This would mean that the spying would not require the NSA to connect to the carrier's network.
The British GCHQ taps into the undersea conduits as they emerge onto land in Britain. I imagine the same is done in many places throughout the world.
I have a t-shirt from the EFF from about five years ago. It displays an American eagle emblazoned NSA, and in its claws it holds numerous cables plugging into AT&T. That was common knowledge ca. five years ago. I doubt they've slacked off since then even if that one op got shut down.
Russia might not be the only company going back to typewriters for sensitive data.
Perhaps you are too young to remember the infamous Carbon Paper hacks that went on back in the day.
You both appear to have forgotten the typewriter ribbon hacks. IBM Selectrics' cartridge ribbons were the nicest, and being heavier than paper sank to the bottom of dumpsters.
This is a big deal because he took undeclared donations in the form of private jet flights.
He billed the taxpayer for them, proving once again just how cheaply a politician can be bought.
Libertarians can reject reality all you want ...
As opposed to you commie freetards, or whatever you want to call yourself. Don't wave that Libertarian stick around if you haven't a clue what it means.
No, hypocritical is not what I was thinking. Boneheadedly ignorant stoopid is more like it. Why is anyone listening to this person who's obviously just surfing the social milieu with nary a clue about all the tech. stuff his advisors natter on about?
Why are there so many of this sort extant nowadays?
I look forward to the day we can Google a person's YouPorn history. Let's get the nasty done with upfront, and we can then move onto more substantive issues.
Or, put into Hollywood's words, "Your unique distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is useless. We are The Borg." Perry's skills in the entertainment arts have been assimilated, by contractual agreement.
Done via malicious breakage of tort law by politicians in bed with lobbyists, enforced by shock trooping lawyers and credulous or senile judges.

Re: Proprietary means bad
Er. They're using security through obscurity (hidden secrets) in order to gain an extra level of security. These are corporate secrets, not gov't.
I wouldn't trust them.

You know, that's really sneaky. I didn't know Stingrays did that 2G thing to phones. I did wonder what Stingrays would give them if they had the keys.
They don't need the keys.

ORLY? I would not trust them to ship it for me now. I'd be worried about sabotage. I'll never ship FedEx again.
This's why common carrier status ought to be ubiquitous. They shouldn't need to care about what's in the box. That's between the DoJ and the receiver.

However, the foot will be exonerated. The person using the foot will, quite rightly, be charged with assault. See the difference?
No, I didn't think you would.
