OF THE
TIMES
History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people.
'Why don't you talk to Robert Malone?' Answering questions from readers. by SASHA LATYPOVA MAY 4 [Link] . Scroll down to the Marty McFly meme,...
First, it is Newsweek, so this is mockingbird media. Gee, I wonder why China would be buying gold and commodities? Oh, maybe they see sanctions...
All the world's a stage...especially in D.C.
Agreed Reran, I've been following geopolitics since prior to the internet. You use to have to go to the library and read newspapers hung over...
"The media really are the problem." And a very powerful problem. But mistrust is on the rise.

russian brothers with their bold claims. It's very good that their making their own version of Google's and Apple's not so wonderful products. But still, one may want to be careful not to make others laugh. There is no such thing as a hacker-proof device, especially mobile. Hackers in Russia and the World would love to have access to a secret cop's small handheld device! And they will!
"physically disconnecting communication modules and sensors on demand" - the Operating System that I'm writing this from has a little button in the lower left corner called "Emergency Shutoff switch" that kills all networking. I will press it if I know that someone is having a session with me. How do you know, on a tablet, that someone has made a session with you? People hardly ever look at their logs on their PC, let alone this little thing. Aaand, glardu, it can't be always disconnected.
"'kill communications' button it features affects GPS, 3G, WiFi and Bluetooth modules" That's a good thing, but it's not necessarily a hard earned discovery in the IT field.... to say the least. You can mod your Linux to do that by yourself, though I admit, you need to play around with it a little bit.
"all apps are vetted by the device producer" - How many will they enjoy? Plus, I want to ask glardu the following: if the secret services are using the device, or similar governmental agencies, it would imply connectivity, right? Or are they going to use a notes app and back up their secret observations to their flash drive later? I doubt it.
"The tablet can work 1 meter underwater for at least 30 minutes" My father's cell phone can do that and it's a Samsung XCover. I don't know how bad a CAT ultrarugged phone will beat it at ruggedness. I don't want to even check. "and is shock-resistant." Keep talking.
I would be extremely glad to see it on the civ. market. Let's see how impossible it is for hackers to break.
