A:
this theory has actually been proposed: That activating the LHC would actually destroy the universe, that is, the whole universe, even reaching back into the past. That would mean that the only possible universes are ones in which the LHC is never activated, which means that if we keep trying, implausible events will continue to occur, preventing the LHC from activating- after all, we’re here now, right. That’s _proof_ that the LHC will never be activated!

MITM Attack on Smartphones whitepaper

From Daily Dave Mailing List

SMobile has released a detailed report on research indicating that smartphone users are just as susceptible to man-in-the-middle (MITM) attacks as PC users. This report details the results of attempts to produce MITM attacks to determine whether it is possible to intercept SSL encrypted communications between various smartphone devices and servers. Of the devices that were tested, each of the major smartphone operating systems appeared to lack the ability to natively detect and defend against MITM attacks, allowing the testing team to intercept sensitive information that should have been encrypted via SSL.
