ANNOUNCE: xfce4-weather-plugin 0.8.0 released

[Genghis Khan]

Is there a way to combine more than one service?

Area(s)            | Service Provider
-------------------+----------------- 
Africa             | API or Library W
Asia               | API or Library X
Europe             | API or Library Y
UK, US & Australia | API or Library Z

et cetera...

I agree with Houghi. They (who are not worth to be mentioned) are
THE REASON (and it is only a sole reason) that I use Tor to send emails.
Get rid of them and I am stopping from using Tor with emails.


Send an email to someone under their services.
 * They have your Email address with *your* IP attached to it.

Get an IM message to a video website under their control and enter it.
 * They have your IP.

Cross the information (IP and IP + Email)
 * Call to the Israeli government to arrest you for viewing this pro
 anti killing of Palestinians video (let our Mossad controlled
 opposition groups to have their "free minded speech" not for people
 who we don't know).
 
 This actually happened in reality to clients of an office which the
 office, where I did my internship, is a partner with. Eventually,
 nothing happened to this group of IDF veterans since our Lawyers
 were much better than the ones of the illiterate ones of our clumsy
 state ;-)

My Email address is not a video uploading website account. Period.

Centralization of information and control is endangering freedom and us.

I do not use AIM, ICQ, MSN, YIM.
* I use IRC and Jabber/XMPP.

http://wwwcip.cs.fau.de/~bo92cafu/im.html

I do not use MySpace, Facebook.
* I use DIASPORA* and Friendica.

I do not use Skype.
* I use SIP, IHU, Mumble.

Do not comply or participate with them.

Decentralization is matter for our freedoms and progress.
So far, look at the mess that BitTorrent (I guess that it is more of DHT
and PEX, which are somewhat independent peer discovery methods) has
caused to the ruling classes in the globe.

If someone in a great position of power of any country or territory is
reading this, please censor the Internet, please throttle BitTorrent,
Gnutella, eD2k and other P2P traffic to a level of making them unusable
on our planet, because then we would make other protocols, we will
encrypt traffic more and you will lose more power and more control.
