Yep, still waiting for Hillary to be charged
So, theoretically if you set your browser to clear it’s history every time you close it, you may be committing a felony over and over again.
This law is only for ‘the little people’, the proles, not the ‘Inner Party’, didn’t you get the memo from Big Brother 0.00? Hillary is part of the ‘Inner Party’, here in Oceania.
Well yeah, there’s lots of normal every day stuff that if you do it KNOWING you’re destroying criminal evidence becomes illegal.
Prosecuting someone for trying to wipe his internet browser history to cover up a lie he made to the police is not any great stretch of the law. You can also be prosecuted for throwing out your garbage if you know there is evidence of a crime in there that you want to get rid of.
Of course you are free to wipe your email server to cover up anything if you are a democrat candidate for president.
It’s my understanding that just about anything is recoverable from an intact hard drive.
In other words, deleting files or overwriting them is pretty much a waste of time if law enforcement has enough time, money, and equipment to tease those files back out again.
It’s also my understanding that smashing a hard drive into dust and little pieces is the only sure method of destroying the data.
Is my understanding of this issue correct?
The comments to the article go immediately to, “Kill the rich — but only a few hundred thousand of them so we don’t feel icky.”
What’s funnier is the line preceding the comments: “Before commenting, please read our Community Guidelines.”
I guess “economic cleansing” of the 1% fits The Nation’s community guidelines.
I have Firefox configured to forget everything: passwords, history, cache, etc. when it shuts down.
I also use the "secure" option when emptying my trash. It overwrites the file with random data.
A defrag is run automatically every night.
About once a week, a task automatically runs to overwrite all the empty space on my disk drive.
This is all basic security measures, to prevent private information from lurking on my computer in places I don't know about, and to keep it running in top performance.
One of these days...One of these days they are going to hit the too much button..
Once again, the idiocy of nondiscrimination is demonstrated.
One: “Khairullozhon Matanov is a 24-year-old former cab driver from Quincy, Massachusetts”. No, he’s not “from Quincy, Massachusetts”. He’s FROM Kyrgyzstan. He came on a “student” visa in 2010, dropped out, and later received asylum, I presume by committing perjury. He happens to be living in the United States and consorting with enemy soldiers.
Two: This fact ALONE is sufficient to return him to Bishkek, where there are plenty of mosques for him to pray at. Dropping him from a helicopter hovering over the Gogol Street mosque would provide a salutary lesson.
Three: If the idiot Bush had concentrated on removing Muslims who do not belong here and preventing more from arriving, none of this would be happening. But, because he is an idiot, he took at face value the lying complaints that Muslims living in the US (and taking advantage of our generosity) were a persecuted minority in need of special protection and special favors.
Four: Since it is presumably provable that his asylum case was fraudulent, the whole expensive legal process could be short-circuited by his immediate removal to Guantanamo.
Of course, it's in the British press, since the US media simply reprints or broadcasts press releases from his lawyer.
While dropping out of Quincy College (an "open admission commuter school" with an "international students program") and driving a cab, he managed to accumulate (or was given) $71 000 which he wired to various overseas locations.
I bet you anything that a proper investigation of this "international students program" and this open admissions junior college would turn up MANY persons of interest.
Anyone unclear on the double standards existing these days?
This guy must have had a terrible lawyer who failed to inform him that he cannot be prosecuted as long as he claims he was only deleting items about yoga and wedding dresses.
This is the Nation, a hardcore Marxist magazine.
Do people not know that anything it publishes is distorted propaganda.
That’s what happened. Hillary Clinton heard that it’s a good idea to periodically clear her web browser and she confused that with web server.
“You Can Be Prosecuted for Clearing Your Browser History” ...(if you are peripherally involved in a nightmarish terrorist bombing, and after being interview by the police run home and destroy all electronic record of your contact with the leader of the cell)
Such behavior has always been a crime.
Screw this guy.
As they ALWAYS do with ANY law.
Prosecutors are probably just throwing this out for leverage to get him to talk. If the case moves forward, then there should be a VERY busy prosecutor in D.C.
HAHA, like that would ever happen.
