If you care about blinding the Tel Co of your financial information, sorry to say but you are a criminal.
Financial information is the ONE (single) information they cannot resell. Well, technically they can sell information if you miss account etc. And all your personal info if you default. But that is another subject.
All the other information they do sell, they will continue to sell just the same. Including DNS/email access times/location, etc.
Because there is no way to provide you with service without that information. And that is all conveniently associated with the phone number, which you gladly uses on facebook (or it discover via the App if you install it on android)
So, yes. This is pretty much a VPN. Just one more party that can influence your connection before the intended termination.
Sorry to be blunt, but you have no idea how "Targeting" works on Advertising/Telephone co.
When Verizon/Att/Tmo/etc sells your information to Advertising companies, they will "infer" your identity. They do not care if phone SIM have your ID associated. That ID is built from traffic.
If they see DNS requests to real state sites, they may put you in a bucket that says "high income", if they see searches (via DNS hijack to when you search by your addressbar like tmo does) for things like fastfood breakfast delivery, up in the "low income" bucket you go. Also, it will always have your Phone number.
Then those Advertising companies "enrich" this data with data from google or others, and can pin point you by email plus all the correlated data. Happy that you have facebook two factor auth to your SMS now?
It shocks me that people in this forum are completely oblivious to Tracking and think that the aborted "think of the children" law that requires you present an ID to buy a phone line has any importance...
So, to conclude, the traffic here is observed by the proxing entity, by the tel co, etc.
clearly universities gain from this current system. but I'm ignorant of how.
why else mit would be the one pursuing punishment in this case when even the journal had given up? mit et all are clearly on the greedy ones side, not on the passive bystanders side. so, this is all very naive sugestions.
the only issue with "Settings" on android is that some moron user experience grand master at google insists that users should not have ANY setting. so more sensible but lowly user experience designers have to fake it and insert buttons that open popups with sliders and checkboxes just because the grand master moron wouldn't allow to have two buttons more on the main list of settings.
can't see why this is downvoted... the fact that this is true and that the author replies that he actually had to extensively prepare for it... and the fact that he would be in the same trouble as the watch guy had his design had a large battery... anyway, i'm on silent ban so posting just out of habit.
Same here. But i give it to the first poster that using linux is a pain. trying to buy a new laptop for my wife and i'm going crazy trying to map the reasonably priced options with the linux support i will get from the hardware.
agreed. while this task is not hard, the rest may not go as planned. recently i just moved back to ubuntu instead of debian out of lazyness. tried to copy a bunch of images via dd, unetbootin, whatever method... but the debian installer (be it the disk, netboot, etc) always died trying to look for a cd rom instead. after some dozen tries (20min+ each) i just gave up and got the ubuntu iso and installed. sucks no to have to disable a bunch of proprietary and binary blob stuff, but at least that i can manage --differently from fixing the installer.
This is plain dumb, you would still not have delivery per se.
you have to drive to a 'store' just that store would not employ anyone.
I used to live in a building that had a bunch of bigger mailboxes. The mailman would put your stuff there, and the key inside your mailbox. when you unlocked it the key remained locked there until the mailman key could lock again and release the user key for another delivery to you or somebody else.
Most houses and apartments adhere to fire safety just fine. Comercial ones are required based on the volume of people you are serving. If you keep the rental under the reasonable number of people that the apartment was designed for, this is nothing other than a bad excuse for a law that is using your tax money to pay for people to enforce something that adds no value to society, in fact, removes from it.
> (Mount Weld) has high concentrations of rare earths, is a huge site, and has low levels of thorium contamination.
just a guess, the thorium was not what they were extracting there -- otherwise they wouldn't have left it behind. Maybe it was moved there to be used to extract(?) some of the other more valuable heavy metals? ...and then discarded along with several other by-products the as cheaper as possible.
i'm pretty sure that whole article is a troll atempt to make people go check out the "webmail" service on goatse.cx... i found muself urging to check the site out several times while reading it, but will not. fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.
Because most self-respecting developers do not like to work on a platform where everything is closed source in the hardware... that said, i'm glad a few of the not-so-self-respecting good ones does not see a problem with that.
the text is wrong. it's not a "brewer without a brewery". It's maybe the opposite.
the brewery and it's brewer are making the beer. This is just a case of a salesman without a factory.
The car analogy is trying to buy a new battery. there's 3 factories, and 999 brands. The work to know which battery will not fail you sooner is to find out which factory puts out the brand you can get cheap on your area. With the beer it's the same. the recipe can be great, but which brewery is making which batch, with water from where?
