The developer must have hired a great P.R. company because yesterday our local TV news was covering it. Now it's on HN!?!
Read the FAQ and you'll get an idea of the brains (or lack thereof) behind this app: http://ignorenomoreapp.com/faq
"Q: My child ignored my instructions and selected “OK” to the pop-up request to “Disable Device Admin”. How do I restore Ignore No More on their phone?"
"A: I know, I know let me guess the child said, “It was an accident”. First you need to check to see if Ignore No More is still on their phone. If it is then that’s great news. All you have to do is select the device’s Settings icon>Security>Device (or Phone) Administrators where you will then see an empty box beside of Ignore No More Device Admin. Select the empty box; a pop-up will appear, select “Activate”. Ignore No More is now restored on the child’s phone. On the other hand, if the child deleted the app entirely from their phone you will need to download again from the app store."

It's very interesting that TAO attempted to remotely compromise a core router. What happened to diverting Cisco boxes to an "undisclosed location" for installing implants?

Most people can tell the difference between a leaky pipe and one that is properly plumbed. However, most people cannot tell the difference between well-designed software and shit.
Also, they can take their time choosing a software architect. But if they take their time choosing a plumber, their house fills with shit.

But I could sell you a VCR. I might even let you store it at my house since I have better reception than you. Wait, that would be illegal...

Two things to point out here...
1. Rumors and innuendo are not the same as hard evidence. While some politicians may survive a controversy, in most cases reputation-damaging information has a negative effect on a political career (especially if it's indisputable evidence). "Nobody wants a scandal". Furthermore, what an old enemy might leak to the press is a far cry from what might be uncovered through comprehensive digital surveillance. Having access to raw, captured Internet traffic is a game-changer.
2. If the members of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence don't feel that they are getting completely accurate and inclusive information from the NSA, why wouldn't they feel vulnerable? Who could know the truth if the NSA doesn't give straight information to the very people who are supposed to be overseeing their work?

What about the "evaporation ponds" & (often missing) liners?
What about methane contamination to drinking water wells?

Don't forget about cell signal jammers! Surely it uses CDMA or GSM.

Suggestion: add a field to use a custom DNS server.
Then one could get different screenshots for the same URL (i.e. to use when testing or migrating websites).

Talk is cheap. This guy is a clown.
"My new technology is going to provide a new type of Internet, a decentralized, floating and moving Internet that is impossible to hack, impossible to penetrate and vastly superior in terms of its facility and neutrality. It solves all of our security concerns," McAfee said in an interview with the San Jose Mercury News.
