Online organized crime has been going on for over a decade, and Krebs has been covering it for that long too. He's quite well known in the online criminal underworld. If a well-resourced and ruthless criminal wanted Krebs dead, it would have already happened.

Instead the high-end criminals seem to be mostly amused and flattered by the coverage from Krebs. They even give him email interviews sometimes. They know he can't really do anything to stop them. He's just a writer.

It's generally only the new or small-time folks, who get their egos bruised, that try to harass him. These folks are generally cowards and not rich or well-connected anyway.
They also reduce jobs and the quality of those jobs whenever they win a big contract to serve as a cafeteria for some big venue as has recently happened in my city.
An Italian citizen can hold Germany accountable for implementing and enforcing EU privacy laws and directives (through the EU courts). If that doesn't give him sufficient legal standing he can vote for representatives to pass stricter EU legislation.

Show HN: Smartflix – Watch Netflix content from any country
Hey,

I’ve just released the first beta of Smartflix, a Mac app that lets you easily watch Netflix content from any country.

Here are some of the key features:
- The ENTIRE Netflix library (~14,000 movies & TV Shows episodes)
- 1080p support (Google Chrome and Firefox only support 720p)
- Manual quality selection
- Media Keys support
- Mini-player (this one is pretty cool)

(Security note: the app is signed).

How it works
It proxifies some www.netflix.com requests when needed to bypass location restrictions. The stream and most of the heavy other assets comes directly from Netflix. It is WAY better and safer than VPNs and “smart DNS” services (both potentially routing and/or intercepting every requests your computer makes at any time).

There is a live chat inside the app for feedback or support, if you have any questions or suggestions we can talk there.

By the way, all the Back to the Future movies are available right now. That’s what I will be watching tonight!

(PS: Windows version is coming soon)
(PS 2: It is completely free for now, until you guys and I are satisfied with the quality of the app)
The other side to that coin is that these reports are always in the top of the front page of HN, and likely on Reddit, also. They are popular because they are great, and I don't want to live in a world where people can't be paid fairly to do great things.

This is all anecdotal but...

I bought...

1TB WD Green EARS HDDs in 2010 for $70.
2TB WD Red HDDs in spring 2014 for $89.
1TB WD Black HDDs in fall 2014 for $90.

Just spot checked the same drives...

1TB WD Green EARS HDDs go for $57.
2TB WD Red HDDs go for $89.
1TB WD Black HDDs go for $71.

So prices are slowly falling but I don't think that we're going to see the rapid falls we were accustom to in the last decade due either to technological constrains or consumer demand, likely both.

From 2000-2005 we went from 20GB to 500GB drives, a 25x growth in 5 years but in 2010 we only had 2TB drives which is just a 4x growth. It's 2015 the largest consumer HDDs you can get from WD, Seagate, and HGST are 6TB, 8TB, and 10GB respectively. That's 3-5x growth for the 5 year period. Why has growth slowed? Is it a technological constraint or a lack of investment?

In the early 2000s you could only play music and movies you possessed so there was a big demand for storage space for all your ripped CDs and DVDs. In 2007 Netflix introduced online streaming and today we have thousands of choices for streaming video or music on demand which combined with cloud storage options negated our need for high capacity drives. I think the fact that people are opting for 120GB SSDs over 4TB HDDs demonstrates that the consumer need for extremely large hard drives is in decline.

In the past the HDD makers were very competitive but if you look at WD, Seagate and HGST today you can see they're no longer competing on drive capacities. HGST is the only one that even bothers to sell a consumer grade 10TB HDD. Western Digital has been diversifying for years; first it was portable backup solutions, then NAS drives, NAS solutions, Surveillance and Data Center drives, and just today they announced they're buying Sandisk, a major SSD player.

I think the industry as a whole is moving away from HDDs and for that reason they nolonger need to compete so ferociously on price points.

Does swimming have a nature? This may be a topic too deep for HN based on current down voting but there are substantial philosophical arguments not withstanding the historical one that such things do not have natures. The historical argument I think is pretty basic. Would people from a century ago recognize competitive swimming as swimming? How about 2 centuries ago? A millennium? When does the nature of swimming get fixed?
Or perhaps because its recreational, and more fun is better, folks have no self control. They are called 'addictive' for a reason.
Not really.

After N years and M thousands of jobs created, MamaCorp decides that performing some production process in PoorCountry is much cheaper, so it decides to leave... unless VeryLowTaxCountry keeps the taxes very low. At that point, it's not anymore such a good deal (if you're HSBC, you even get a free pass for doing any crime you prefer, without going to jail).

This, not taking into account, let's say, that MamaCorp sets up a subsidiary in VeryHighTaxCountry, with very high profits. That profits though, are entirely funneled to the shell company in VeryLowTaxCountry, so that it pays no taxes in VeryHighTaxCountry and little taxes in VeryLowTaxCountry.

I'm mixing concepts here, but let's not forget that MamaCorps have a huge leverage because of their capitals, and because of their creative accounting strategies too, so deals like this need to be analyzed with extreme care and doubt.
> "Equitable division of marital assets and liabilities."

> This doesn't require anything special.

Right, and how to mechanically achieve this in multiparty relationships on dissolution is what I referred to as having a particularly good model in partnership law, because its done there a lot, and the wrinkles in how it works out have been pretty heavily hammered on over several centuries.

The non-dissolution aspects of marital rights and privileges and how they would apply to multiparty relations (and whether existing explicit rules and legal presumptions built on the premise of a dyadic relationship work, or even make any sense, in multiparty relationships needs to be considered, area by area; for some aspects of this, again, partnership law probably has good models to follow as to how things might be generalized.)

E.g., there's lots of things where spouses have either decisive rights or are necessarily included parties that must each consent, written based on the dyadic nature of existing marriage structure. Whether these generalize to every spouse having the same powers and requirements as a single spouse does now, or whether those powers require a majority of the members of the multiparty relationship, or some other rule in a multiparty case probably needs separate analysis for each of the areas.

They do this already with tax evasion laws or they just keep throwing charges at gangsters to get them off the streets, like here where they use confidential informants to claim somebody did something then lock them up for years pending trial which is later dismissed. They also bust them on petty driving infractions all the time then wait for them to pay with unlaundered money, which opens the tax evasion case. When police and the state want to make your life hell they can easily do that without drug charges.

The real problem with the black market is it's wide open to robbery. Criminals can't do armed escorts for their product and cash or turn to police for protection so they get violently jacked by anybody with a gun. There's no insurance or legal recourse so their only method of compensation is more violence. Nobody jacks beer trucks anymore because the operator can phone police making such a robbery too risky, and they have insurance, so the beer company doesn't have to seek compensation by shooting up their rivals company.

As it stands right now the first thing a violent felon does upon release is rob a drug delivery driver, the black market is their ATM.
There are exemptions for national security, but they have to be proportionate (and if you read the judgment of the court, they're pointing at a high bar there) and non-discriminatory with regards to citizenship.

Part of the problem with SH was the fact that there was no legal recourse at all for EU citizens.

Also, let's not forget that the CJEU stuck down the Data Retention Directive recently - so they are enforcing this human right against EU member states. They just have to wait for the right referral to their court.

The ASP.NET Apocalypse Is Coming
The fundamental change (ignoring issues with the religious) for same-sex marriage really was just the genders specified/described in most legislation and regulations related to marital rights, privileges, obligations.

For multi-party marriage one major issue will be based on this assumption: members can enter into and leave a marriage without dissolving the rest of the union. If 4 people are married and wish to add a fifth, and later one wants to leave, this should be feasible. How will the various assets be combined and removed from the other parties when people enter into and leave this plural marriage?

It's not as straightforward as the current two-person marriage. (Ha! It's not clean for two-party marriages either.) It'd be interesting to see, but it'll require a bit more structure to be set up, or at least more deliberation to ensure that it's not a complete clusterfuck the first time someone wants to divorce their two wives and husband (see also the issue with civil unions before same sex marriage was legalized and the issues faced when trying to dissolve those).

I think the design antitheses of the i8 is the Nissan Leaf. It costs 1/4 as much, and has a little less than 1/3 the horsepower. However, its also visually indistinguishable from other sub-compacts. The Leaf is for people who don't want to notice that their car is electric. I can see why someone who spends $130K doesn't want to just blend in with traffic.

Managing data flow on the client-side
It sounds to me like you are doing React development incorrectly. You should aim to break down your mockups into small components, preferably stateless components (introduced in React 0.14) and only have the higher level components act as wrappers that pass down data into the small stateless component leafs (which should be the majority of your UI).

> I would be really interested to see some things like how far someone could hit a golf ball if there were no restrictions on the club or ball or how fast a person could swim if there were no restrictions on the swimsuits.

Sometimes restrictions actually serve to amplify the technology used. For example, in cycling there are lower weight limits on the bike. If not for that, all the research would go into making bikes as light as possible since it directly translates into lower power for a given speed.

By putting a restriction on how light a bike can be, research gains in materials to reduced weight allowed companies to put other augmentations on the bike. Like electronic shifters and the growing popularity of disc brakes on road bikes.

Restrictions are just a formal declaration of what's "fair". I'd say they're necessary for any sport to be successful. For example, if there were literally zero restrictions on swim suits you'd see motorized swim suits or air jets, etc. And it wouldn't be what we think of as a "swimming" competition anymore.

I work in a newsroom as a developer. It is often a perfectly stressful situation made worse by an open office and my own personal inability to "turn off" as you mentioned.

I love my job and consider myself pretty good at it, but feel a constant stress and anxiety that I MUST channel. There are times when I simply am unable to do that and shut down mentally for a couple of hours and would love to know more about what you've done or attempted to address this issue for yourself.

I worry that while this makes me very effective at my job, I'm damaging my long term health and sanity.

Right. As their own statistics show, the average age in the groups from least to most use increases from 13.8 to 15.8, and there's a big separation by grade level in terms of use that supports that observation, too. That's a pretty big gap in terms of developmental status and, bluntly, levels of teenage angst, so perhaps while there is clear correlation here, there is not causation. I think this is the clincher - "Conversely, studies conducted among university students found no such relationship [between mental health and SNS use]." What's the main difference? Lack of the steep developmental range seen in early teens. They also openly state this:

"The cross-sectional nature of the data precludes evaluation
of temporality and causality of the observed relationship
between use of SNSs and mental health problems."

So, when the press run with "Social media causes brain damage in children, think of the children!", remember what the paper actually says.

Personally, I think from anecdotal experience that heavy SN use fucks you up no end, but these findings don't prove this.

Bit first, this is not cash lying around, this is new debt. Second ,Even if you take all of Google's investments into innovation and and look at them combined ,they would probably offer a decent return on investment. Similarly if you look at intel capital's investments , you'll probably get a nice financial story + a decent strategic lever.

Also from a pure financial perspective - sandisk has a profit of $1.22 Billion.That would take 15 years to repay. Isn't risky to make such long term investments in i a single investment , in tech , which is a dynamic field usually ?

I'll just leave this data here to back up my assertions for future readers. This, from Streetsblog today:

"From 2000 to 2013 (the most recent year for which official bike crash data are available), cyclists killed eight New York City pedestrians, according to DOT. During that time frame, drivers killed 2,291 people walking. There were two reported incidents in which people on bikes struck and killed pedestrians in 2014, when DMV data show drivers killed 127 pedestrians.

All told, cyclists fatally struck 10 people in NYC in 14 years, compared to 2,418 pedestrians killed by drivers, making cyclists accountable for .4 percent of pedestrian deaths."
Imagine having your likeness frozen in time becoming this famous. Look at his photo in 2015. It is obviously him but he grew out his hair, looks thinner, and he's aged (6 years!), then you see his own self on his shirt.

I mean its a bit different than being famous and having a famous photo taken of you. Most of the time the photo is famous because the person _and_ event are famous. But with this, it almost becomes a completely different person/thing when the "famous" aspect is just some random photo taken of you.

The question I have is does he own any rights at all to his likeness (from 2009) being reproduced? Twitch took that picture, and they own the rights to that photo taken, so I guess that part of it belongs to twitch. But now people are making statues of him and taking large photos of his head to eSports tournaments, so what rights does he have to say, "Whoa, those busts are cool, but I'm really uncomfortable with that. Take it down please"?
Maybe I'm being obtuse, but wouldn't that be an argument for prohibition? As in, drugs that aren't prohibited cause much more harm than those that are?

This was settles centuries ago. Riding on the water in a boat is called "sailing" and using your body to move through the water is called "swimming". The nature of "swimming" is defined as the verb "to swim". Which curtails that one is not "sailing". So no boats involved.

There is some to be said about "drifting" (e.g floating on ones' back) being a form of "swimming" but I think that's the only grey line and as for a competition I don't think "drifting" would ever win in a race. If one wishes to "drift" as their method of "swimming" they will lose the race.

The Echo might not be it, since Amazon wants you to use their own cloud offerings, but I wonder if it is possible.
"On the one hand information wants to be expensive, because it's so valuable.
The right information in the right place just changes your life.
On the other hand, information wants to be free, because the cost of getting
it out is getting lower and lower all the time.
So you have these two fighting against each other."

... would be the actual quote in its entirety, which describes an inherent conflict between the value of information and the cost of distribution, not "information freedom" as being a law of nature in and of itself.
