Don’t mistake map programs’ inaccuracy for your phone’s GPS. Map programs are often confused by network resolution and switch server locations with your location. Don’t assume someone with ill intent will do the same. Smart phones are a surveillance state’s wet dream.
Ridiculous. You trust the most ravenous of wolves to guard your hen-house and protect you from the big bad capitalists the ISPS. Communism is what you are for which is government control of the free enterprises.
Government control is not the solution to our problems government control(communism) IS the problem.
repeal all government regulations including your Obama’s meant to destroy freedom on the Internet. Long live freedom = capitalism and the unregulated free market.
government regulations only stifle innovation and investment from ISPs and i’ve talked with ceo’s of ISPS like Century link which agree with me.
Those like you who are willing to give up essential liberty to government goons for a promised benefit or security deserve neither.
to hell with the Gestapo FCC and obama and the communist goons who have destroyed what made America great which is FREEEDOM
Where in the Constitution is it allowed for the federal government to oversee and regulate sure ISPS for some supposed benefit of privacy. you do know that there things called private lawsuits and court of laws for citizens and ISPS to settle such disputes and we don't need government regulators to make sure reality and the free market work when they don't have a clue and are just corrupt weasels out to get greased.
Ivacy. You?
I guess it’s the same kind of mentality that complains about a ‘draconian reduction’ of a planned INCREASE and talking about it like they are taking away money they never got.
Washington speak. Victim speak. Whiner speak. Gibsmedis/Gibsmedat speak.
How does that work?
The only change is that the government may be paying for what they have been scooping up for free. The 4th amendment does not speak to communication. Communication means sharing information with some other entity. If we expected privacy on the internet, we would not need spam filters. If you want Internet privacy elect people who will write better laws. Until then, typewriters, dead drops and codes will have to do for the secret squirrel.
This is a government regulator for the FCC. As you know our glorious leader obama has passed regulations requiring you ISPs to keep consumer data private. I require statistical analysis and reports forms 103290, 2191 A , 19293T , filed in triplicate by . Included are 300 pages of government legalese e and regulations all meant to makes sure ISPs keep consumer data private. It's all for privacy you know and even many on freerepublic support this oversight of government so you know we are legit and not out on the take( but if you include a donation we won't object wink wink).
ISP CEO: I guess we have to hire lawyers to go over these regulations and fill out these regulations and make sure all our employees get training on this so we comply . more expense taken out from our investment for higher speed research.
I use VPN Unlimited.
Reasonable cost, runs in the background. I turn it off for some sites. I’ll show you next time I run into you.
okay
FCC regulator to ISP CEO : And to make sure you comply the NSA and DHS will monitor all internet communications to make sure you comply with our government privacy regulations
I tried LimeVPN first but could not get it configured to my dd-wrt router. I cancelled and tried Private Internet Access and they helped me get it set up. LimeVPN was cheaper, but $40 a year isn’t too bad.
This is EXACTLY WHY the Stupid Party keeps getting itself into trouble.
THIK before you give the business community what it asks for. Not EVERYTHING that they want is a good idea!
The problem is that from the beginning, an Internet “conversation” was not considered the same as a telephone conversation, in terms of the privacy of it and how it was expected that your phone company was NOT selling your calling history and/or content of your conversation to anyone.
NOTHING about the Internet being “open” enough that you can locate anyone else that has an address on the Internet REQUIRES that your connections and “conversations” be data your ISP can sell.
A famous NYTimes columnist (William Safire) back at the dawn of the Internet age, in one of his last editorials, argued, correctly in my book, how “opt in” should be the standard for every single form of “data sharing”, “cookies”, ect. relative to your Internet communications. He was right.
So what?
An unpunished enemy is an enemy with nothing to fear.
No one, but I’m interested.
I know more about the back end than the front end of IT.
Most databases of corporations, of credit bureaus, of government have a high rate of erroneous data.
The errors range from harmless to comical to very harmful. The bad quality of data harms more people, and more severely than intentional surveillance does.
Our society, like the mayor of London, has a tendency to redefine things as just “life in the big city”, or “the cost of doing business”.
But most of us are very illogical in which costs and harm we accept and which outrage us.
