@Qwerty.55

Of course, I am not proposing that we go and invert the ciphers and systems needed, but rather to combine existing ones.

On the topic of secure networking, I too am also interested, perhaps we may discuss about this topic in the future?

Specifying a protocol by implementation in any computer language is generally a bad idea. There are reasons every major specification is in a human language, the primary ones being that it makes differing implementations of the spec possible.

Ah, that's much more reasonable. It's still massive project though. I'd be happy to discuss with you :)

This is a good point. If anyone is interested, RFCs are out there and are an excellent template on how to make specifications.

You can get HTTPS for free from certain companies that support FOSS software.
But, you could also make your own SSL certificate server, and have many people linking to your server.
The same with DNS, its easy to set up your own and de-block blocked websites.

(Also, maybe this thread should be moved to private?)

Seems like you guys are getting ready for the battle; but, lets hope that the war doesn't break out.  If this SOPA thing goes through it would be a bunch of people that have no idea what it can do that would have voted for it.
They say that your signature is supposed to go here...

a video says you would still be able to bypass it by typing in an ip address
The DNS block can be avoided using IP addresses, but SOPA does way more than just that. Companies that provide money or advertisements to sites, or in the case of search engines, link to them, can be forced to stop doing so.
in portuguese:
sopa means soup and pipa means wine barrel :D
In Swedish: Sopa means garbage (or sometimes a person who is very bad at something) and pipa means... Well, I'm not completely sure of what it's called in English. Google Translate says pipe, but I'm not sure if that's accurate.

PIPA, in English, comes rather close to PITA.  (pain in the --).  Kind of fits? XD

And the US house just killed the SOPA today. PIPA, Senate's version of SOPA which is basically the same, is still in consideration at the US senate.

Remember the day the walrus started to fly...

I finally cleared my sig after 4 years you're happy now?

in korean, there's no F, and they pronounce F as P. so, SOPA would be sofa and PIPA would be FIFA :P


Spoiler For funny life mathematics:
1. ROMANCE MATHEMATICS
Smart man + smart woman = romance
Smart man + dumb woman = affair
Dumb man + smart woman = marriage
Dumb man + dumb woman = pregnancy
2. OFFICE ARITHMETIC
Smart boss + smart employee = profit
Smart boss + dumb employee = production
Dumb boss + smart employee = promotion
Dumb boss + dumb employee = overtime
3. SHOPPING MATH
A man will pay $2 for a $1 item he needs.
A woman will pay $1 for a $2 item that she doesn't need.
4. GENERAL EQUATIONS & STATISTICS
A woman worries about the future until she gets a husband.
A man never worries about the future until he gets a wife.
A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.
A successful woman is one who can find such a man.
5. HAPPINESS
To be happy with a man, you must understand him a lot and love him a little.
To be happy with a woman, you must love her a lot and not try to understand her at all.
6. LONGEVITY
Married men live longer than single men do, but married men are a lot more willing to die.
7. PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't change, and she does.
8. DISCUSSION TECHNIQUE
A woman has the last word in any argument.
Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Girls = Time * Money (Girls are a combination of time and money)
Time = Money (Time is money)
Girls = Money squared (So, girls are money squared)
Money = sqrt(Evil) (Money is also the root of all evil)
Girls = sqrt(Evil) squared (So, girls are the root of all evil squared)
Girls = Evil (Thus, girls are evil)
*Girls=Evil credit goes to Compynerd255*
