That's got to be the most blatant case of contempt I've ever seen. Impressive how he continues to try to bluff himself out of this despite the judge constantly calling his bluff.
People are really impressed with the judge but I am not so Pmuch. He should be in jail already. Our justice system quickly finds excuses to incarcerate or worse, for much less, for "lower classes" of people.
I'm very much okay with judges being extraordinarily careful to preserve people's due process rights. There's not really any significant time pressure involved - if it takes an extra month to make it abundantly clear that they're willfully and knowingly defying court orders, so be it.
Fair point. Plenty of people don't even get a second chance and get incarcerated on very questionable evidence, whereas this guy got five tries despite obviously lying.
But Facebook should not care if they get their money via ads or directly. They should actually favor fees because of less overhead. Ad prices and therefore the fee could go up until it reaches the real value of those ads making it a free choice for everyone if they want to pay a fee and keep their privacy or if they see value in ads and want to pay indirectly via higher product prices and additionally lose their privacy.
Personally I see absolute no value for consumers in ads. I like good critical reviews, not marketing bullshit. If I had the power, I would probably even consider prohibiting advertising altogether.
b) Ladar talked about this in an interview with Leo Laporte from October. He says "I looked into [using PFS]. The version of OpenSSL I was running in production at the time didn't support Diffie Hellman. That's a newer addition to the SSL protocol. I did support it in my development tree and I thought about upgrading, but it really came down to two things. One, I was worried I could get hit with an obstruction of justice or a contempt of court order if I did that knowing with full knowledge what they were trying to do ... Here's the other problem. Even if you're offering perfect forward security, very few clients would have taken advantage of it, particularly mail clients."
http://www.bitcoincharts.com lists the daily trading volume of various exchanges. I think the numbers for Mt. Gox represent the volume before things went sour, so based on that, Mt. Gox sees almost 30 times the volume of the next largest exchange.
What worries me the most is that one expert that the Daily Mail interviewed said "It would have been hard to prepare for this type of vulnerability." The same expert "wondered how the hackers could have known to breach security by focusing on the vulnerability in the browser."
