    Net Neutrality ??

    A good addition to this discussion - map of locations in the US with a single ISP available:

    Net Neutrality ??

    Interesting; that makes more sense. And looking at wiki, it looks like netflix only announced/started offering their own CDN in the second half of 2012. Yeah, personally I would recommend that just as a work-around, but never really as definitive proof of throttling - usually when we report...

    Net Neutrality ??

    It might all be the same situation - if you look at the link I posted, there's a mention of a letter from Netflix to Al Franken explaining the situation from their side: This also answers your point of this being Netflix's change causing the issue - yes, they used level 3, but as an additional...

    Net Neutrality ??

    It was Cogent actually in the incident I'm thinking of. Also, it has everything to do with net neutrality - this is Comcast using explicit tactics to strong-arm a company into a position where they are more likely to accept their terms, which is what net neutrality tries to prevent/set a...

    Net Neutrality ??

    Actually it is not hypothetical - it's just that those agreements are not public. For example, you might remember hearing that Comcast was throttling Netflix a few years ago - the details of the situation aren't public, but from working on this industry I can guess what happened: Comcast...

    Vulnerability in All Wi-Fi Devices

    Nope, it's still alive and kicking and finding worse and worse things online with shitty security - from home security cameras to hydraulic dam control systems.

    Vulnerability in All Wi-Fi Devices

    It doesn't multiply that much - it also increases the complexity unless they know exactly which network to target. If they don't, they then have to use more hardware to capture all potential networks until they identify yours and can focus the attack, which makes it even less likely. As I've...

    Vulnerability in All Wi-Fi Devices

    Also you didn't mention the other big part - it requires an insane amount of luck (or time) for it to be worth for the attacker, which is why I believe home users will not be attacked. Let me expand a bit - this attack requires proximity as mentioned by Jesse and timing (or luck). Proximity by...

    Vulnerability in All Wi-Fi Devices

    That's an over-reaction... As pointed by Jesse0328, it's hard to exploit and the majority of the important sites use HTTPs; if you want to do anything in the mean time without disabling wifi, just install the "Https Everywhere" extension on your browser and it will ensure you will not be able to...

    VFWs Ban NFL?

    I keep seeing people say this, but never saying *how* they should protest. So, how should they protest? To be honest, I doubt you or anyone else can come up with an effective option that doesn't offend someone and won't be turned into a political tool to try to silence the protestors - this...

    My free cams

    And another possibility - did your IP address change recently? Bans on MFC are based on both account and IP address to ensure people can't bypass a ban easily, but this can have downsides - if you are unlucky enough to have your IP change (as it does in most ISPs) and lands on the IP of someone...

    Many Vids

    Guy, context matters - no one ends up in jail just because they mentioned/interacted with a person who is later arrested. Now, if those interactions were in the context of assisting the person in committing the crime or hiding it, that's a whole different issue. In any case, I agree we...

    Many Vids

    There's more to that story: once people found this out they started reviewing her videos on Manyvids and found multiple rule violations which Manyvids either ignored after reports or just told her to edit the videos to fix them (when in previous cases involving other models, they banned...

    Trump has banned Transgender people from the military

    Yep - while Trump has been doing a lot of things to remove protections to a lot of groups, this one feels more like a distraction than anything - it came shortly after Manafort got a subpoena to testify (which was later withdrawn as he delivered documents they had requested and agreed to set up...

    Mom reveals she used breast milk to make brownies

    Yes: "HIV and other serious infectious diseases can be transmitted through breast milk. However, the risk of infection from a single bottle of breast milk, even if the mother is HIV positive, is extremely small." (from https://www.cdc.gov/breastfeeding/faq/ ) . Now, milk from other species is...

    Manyvids.com - Sell vids, links, skype and more

    Not only that, but it seems like it posts it for every video sold even if it was part of a large purchase, which leads to a lot of spam - looking at my twitter feed right now, I see a case where it tweeted 9 times in one minute to a single model's account.

    Site by sounds

    I'm sure plenty of people reading this topic have been scammed, but if you read your posts objectively there's two reasons for people to not show empathy or willingness to help: - first and foremost - the fact that you are trying to locate a model when she already shut you down from previous...

    MFC's new Non Nude site - Cammunity (now CamYou)

    I wonder how MFC/Cammunity will deal with this, since now the rules have been published and theoretically that would be forbidden: " The following are specifically NOT allowed on Cammunity: ...Advertising, selling, or linking adult-oriented content" .

    Apple may soon take on Netflix

    And that still isn't enough to make users sign up for either of those to make a dent on netflix's marketshare, proving my point. At the end of the day, users are lazy - if the price is comparable, you have to give them a really good reason to move from one service to another (or to sign up for...

    Apple may soon take on Netflix

    Dunno if it will change things - even if you ignore exclusive/original content, Netflix already beats all the competitors (itunes, amazon, google play) easily on rentals, so it would take *a lot* of highly compelling exclusive content to make people sign up for another service.
