Option5 Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 What she didn't add is that under the terms of the Patriot Act and other legislation pushed through as part of The War Against Terror (twit), American software companies are under similar obligations if the government comes knocking at their doors. Does it really say that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does it really say that? Paedophiles love to know which kids are failing at school cos they are usually the ones grown-ups are least likely to believe. So paedophiles, given the opportunity, would always take an interest in your kids' school report. Of course, a child's parent also takes an interest in their kid's school report. Some things are just much more noteworthy than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's another thing it says: Quote Eugene Kasperky, the eccentric founder of the firm that bears his name, But, but, but, but .... is that s.t.r.i.c.t.l.y t.r.u.e ?????? Eugene Kaspersky - Wikipedia aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah, ......... ......... His name isn't 'Eugene' at all! BehindTheName has an entry for 'Eugene' Quote Given Name EUGENE GENDER: Masculine USAGE: English PRONOUNCED: YOO-jeen, yoo-JEEN [details] Meaning & History English form of Eugenius, the Latin form of the Greek name Ευγενιος (Eugenios) which was derived from the Greek word ευγενης (eugenes) meaning "well born". It is composed of the elements ευ (eu) "good" and γενης (genes) "born". This was the name of several saints and four popes. "Usage : English" English? "English form of ...." English? So he's English, right? Or at least, Western European? Well, maybe that's what you are supposed to think. And you might, until you learn his real name is ... 'Yevgeny' Yev-wotty? It's okay, BehindTheName has an entry for that too: Quote Given Name YEVGENY GENDER: Masculine USAGE: Russian OTHER SCRIPTS: Евгений (Russian) PRONOUNCED: yiv-GYE-nyee, iv-GYE-nyee [details] Ah. 'Russian'. Hmmm. Okay. Sure, 'Eugene' is listed as a 'variant', but ... is that what Vladimir calls him .. or is that just for our benefit?

Errol Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 This is just more of the anti-Russian/Russophobia nonsense. The US have totally lost the plot and the rest of the world are just watching them in the same way as you would watch an insane person thrashing around.

Errol Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Totally understand this for US government systems (obviously). All countries with any sense only use their own stuff on their own sensitive computers. But the rest of this is just the typical American insanity.
