		<description>Incredible. Uverse is the biggest farce I&#039;ve seen promoted in years. I rely on my internet connection for work, and I cannot get through 30 minutes without freezing and losing my connections. And it is getting worse byu the day. I has DSL with AT&amp;T prior to this with no problems, so I thought Uverse was the next logical step. WRONG!!!

MY ADVICE: STAY AWAY FROM U-VERSE AT ALL COSTS! IT IS A COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY.</description>

If you are having doubts about its effectiveness, here is an article that tells of a hopeless mother of a bullying victim who finally turned to my father&#039;s free manual to seek help for her son, and watched his bullying problems disappear instantly:

		<description>Hey Adam,

Good points!

One of the more troubling aspects of those that advocate an offensive response or for us to target in retaliation is that it is so difficult to prove one way or the other so the evidence would most likely be circumstantial. It would be very easy for one party to implicate another for their own benefit, or for a Cyber confrontation to escalate to kinetic weapons - both terrible outcomes if we proceed without caution.</description>

		<description>Hey Amrit, long time

Great post - you are 100% right.

Even Brian Chess, who I respect a lot, said &quot;This was an old-school, blunt instrument kind of attack. It looks like everything else North Korea does,&quot; he said. &quot;They&#039;re trying to promote their agenda not just with missiles, but in cyberspace.&quot;

What ARE the signs of a North Korean cyber attack? Since as far as I know, there has been none before, pointing the finger at North Korea - there is no evidence supporting that.

There is a conflict going on in Washington over cyber-security and budgets and control. It could just as easily be a US intelligence agency.

Or it could be a country or group that would benefit from a Korean conflict, and is performing a False Flag operation.

Expect to see a lot more of this in the future. Expect blame to be pointed fast, but the facts to be murky.

The threat of future attacks is great, but this attack is not significant in terms of scope or impact.

If a few government websites aren&#039;t reachable for a few days, I have the feeling that life will go on.

I blogged on this topic last week

No unfortunately he wasn&#039;t invited, but Rupert Murdoch was there along with Sean Hannity and Bill O&#039;Reilly - apparently they have done more to draw attention to North Korea and Iran than almost anybody and many wanted to thank them personally</description>

Yes. I called Kim Jong Il whose number was provided to me at a Hip Hop pool party thrown by Ahmadinejad. It was pretty awesome, we ate &quot;French&quot; Fries dipped in Harissa and sat around hating freedom, listening to NPR and watching the Best of Al Franken on SNL.</description>

		<description>RE:There is absolutely no proof that North Korea has done anything, and even if there were “proof” it’s validity would need to be scrutinized

Really?  No proof?  Did &quot;they&quot; tell you that?  Do you have the proof there is no proof?</description>
