You hook it up to your network and turn the key (literally, it has a physical key) and it turns on a VPN tunnel via a VPN service routing your data through another country. These guys sent me a prototype to check out, and it looks interesting (though won't work with my network setup). They're still deciding what VPN service provider it will use, and it seems like that's something that could make a difference in terms of overall usefulness.
Of course by VPN I'm sure they don't mean direct line to the NSA. (or maybe that's just me toying with your paranoia.)
Need a way to once again link current events in America to the fall of Rome? Try our new math product - Equations of the blindingly obvious dressed up to make me look brilliant.
By mathematically modelling historical data, Turchin finds that as population grows, workers start to outnumber available jobs, driving down wages. The wealthy elite then end up with an even greater share of the economic pie, and inequality soars. This is borne out in the US, for example, where average wages have stagnated since the 1970s although gross domestic product has steadily climbed.
This process also creates new avenues – such as increased access to higher education – that allow a few workers to join the elite, swelling their ranks. Eventually this results in what Turchin calls "elite overproduction" – there being more people in the elite than there are top jobs.
Banks using XP after Apr 2014 may be fined - OK this is of limited use to most people but I am enjoying it because so many retards have bought into the idea that because XP is old it's "tested" and more secure. If that were the case every patch Tuesday wouldn't have a bunch of new XP security patches.
