Keeping out big brother?
Overall, this sounds pretty good, but - "You can view the source code to be sure there's no back door." But you can't know whether the source code you viewed is what they actually used. Nor whether there is the kind of back door described in http://tinyurl.com/d7ow765 - Most of it sounds technically good, but the sentences about quantum computing strike me as marketing hype more than technical reality. - There's really no way for a guy like me to be sure the principals aren't actually NSA or some other group of spooks. Or just a bunch of scammers getting money from the paranoid. https://unseen.is/premium-landing.html -- Wes Groleau There ain't no right wing, there ain't no left wing. There's only you and me and we just disagree. (apologies to Jim Krueger) |

They claimed one of their reasons for picking Iceland was that it's closer to the US than other viable choices. But the actual traffic from USA (at least from Indiana) goes to Chicago, then New York, then London, then Iceland. -- Wes Groleau After the christening of his baby brother in church, Jason sobbed all the way home in the back seat of the car. His father asked him three times what was wrong. Finally, the boy replied, €œThat preacher said he wanted us brought up in a Christian home, and I wanted to stay with you guys." |
