Not sure why but the OP seems to have archived the repository.

The geometric, sharp, shapes suggest these aliens are "stealth" ones. :)

Very impressive collage of images! Just one doubt - what are the pitch black patches?

The EFF raises valid concerns regarding the abuse of security backdoors. As far as I remember, they and other privacy advocate have been doing so for the longest period of time. Un…

That last sentence is an interesting sentiment. I can understand that it could be from the perspective of patriotism, supporting local manufacturing, quality perception, etc. Howev…
