4/249   I think my employer logs all web traffic. Is there any free software
        I can run to block this?  Like a proxy or some sort?  Thanks.
        \_ http://www.anonymizer.com
           if you don't want to pay for ssl service do the following:
           1. setup apache+ssl at home
           2. write a cgi that takes in url request and then forwards
              it to anonymizer and parses the response to get rid of
              the annoying tags.
           3. configure your browser to use your home box as a proxy
           Other options include hacking junkbuster to support https.
        \_ j is that you?
              \_ you idiot, I can't even log into soda from work thanks
                 to a certain wonderful firewall.
        \_ yes theres plenty of ways to do this.

        \_ How to check that the company logs all web traffic?
        \_ write a bot that hammers a bunch of sites, such as http://apple.com,
           http://sun.com and http://microsoft.com. run it on your machine and all the
           other machines you can get your hands on. Clueless admins will
           think that its 'software updates' or some such thing. Your
           real traffic will be obscured by the noise. Eventually the will
           give up and realize that logging is stupid.

8/6     Amazon and Apple have lame security policies:
        http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2012/08/apple-amazon-mat-honan-hacking/all
        "First you call Amazon and tell them you are the account holder, and
         want to add a credit card number to the account. All you need is the

         address. "

5/8     Hello everyone!  This is Josh Hawn, CSUA Tech VP for Spring 2012.
        About 2 weeks ago, someone brought to my attention that our script
        to periodically merge /etc/motd.public into /etc/motd wasn't
        running.  When I looked into it, the cron daemon was running, but
        there hadn't been any root activity in the log since April 7th.  I
        looked into it for a while, but got lost in other things I was

4/19    My Firefox 3.6.28 pops up a Software Update box that reads "Your
        version of Firefox will soon be vulnerable to online attacks."  Are
        they planning to turn off some security feature in my version of
        Firefox?
        \_ Not as such, no, but they're no longer developing this version,
