Hello,

I recently launched CloudyBox and I would be tankful if I got from you any feedback. Also I'm here to answer any question...


My guess is that it use the search... since you can search for users by email...


Will the real Satoshi please stand up? I repeat, will the real Satoshi please stand up?


I didn't bother to check but if it's like SkyGrabber it works that way:

Internet via satellite is just like a big local network, when you request data it get sent in space unencrypted, you only have to read it...

So you basically download what other people are downloading without any way to control what to download except with filters that filter text, css, jpg, small files... since this is most of what people get (browsing the net...).


The data is encrypted that's actually how satellite internet works unless you have the resources of a nation state your packets will be mingled with everyone else's the receiver on your end reads all the packets but can only decrypt the ones intended for you. The uplink varies in the past the uplink usually used to go over dial-up/ISDN or even slow speed DSL but today terrestrial transmitters are quite common in most modern Satnet installations.


I know. But the unencrypted satellite internet is still on the market getting sold on MENA, and it's the ones SkyGrabber and other software abuse.


Looks to me he used a bunch of buzzwords followed by a humble brag.

In reality it isn't so weird for a leader to know about quantum physics, like if you asked Angela Merkel I bet she will actually explain the concept. So I don't get all this hype.


What's wrong with that. I have the right to know the source of the food I eat and decide for myself do I wanna eat it or no...

You could say the same about the Arab spring, that starter in Tunisia which is smaller country and lead to several other countries taking down the reign. It was about the message: "Even if a dictator stayed decades ruling you can take him down".

And again there was the opposite message from Syria: "The reign can bomb you, and also call their allies to bomb you".

It was like a domino, leader falling after leader until Assad didn't. And no one did after.


Tunisia felt legitimate. I was there (for a whole month, before and during). Libya felt pushed. Egypt and everything else felt like foreign influence had more impact than local discontent.


If you found that you could do the same thing on a classic installation people will be like. So what? and an electrician wouldn't even be excited to try it.

But since hacking is cool, we like this stuff.

Weird thing also is that using WiFi years ago was basically giving your data, when SSL websites where so rare. And we didn't even cared for it...


I just don't like when they make it a part of Google, Orkut was better than Google Plus IMO for that reason.


If they could build a social network, I would probably enjoy it being part of search. Show me links people I follow have tweeted that are related... seems like that would be a killer app.
