to
the NSA of vulnerabilities it knows about, before fixes or information about
these vulnerabilities is available

the same
time
they will be bootstrapping a really cool and fair cryptocurrency with almost no pre-mining with unique features for instant payments based on my research. "
Naphex: while most of
this injected backdoors will leak in
the intelligence community pretty fast
mircea_popescu: the us is
technologically quite crippled, i don't even
think it competes with russia, and
that's half
the population.
mircea_popescu: Naphex cn definitely holds

the US have
the backdoor, you might as well figure everyone does, so IL, DE, CN

the list
Naphex: as well most server
techs and ipmi disabled, hdd encryption, etc
HeySteve: the problem is, even if you can

their career in
the world by inventing pseudo-worlds.

trust
the Huawei stuff either
BingoBoingo: mircea_popescu: I mean

the fact
that nobody wants
to buy us made hardware anymore.
