Qu'est-ce que POSIX ?

Bonjour à tous,

J'aimerais savoir exactement ce que recouvre la norme POSIX. J'ai
longtemps cru qu'il s'agissait d'une norme applicable aux moteurs
d'expressions régulière, avant d'apprendre qu'elle couvrait également
une gestion des "locales" et divers autres fonctions propres aux OS...

Pourriez-vous éclaircir mes pensées bien confuses ?

Merci d'avance !

Je ne suis pas d'accord. Je ne vois pas pourquoi il faudrait savoir
réfléchir pour faire des AAD. C'est du pur racisme envers les
participants actuels d'un groupe bientôt défunt.

Intelligence is not just neutral information; it can be powerful and
dangerous. Intelligence gathering and military force are two sides of
the same coin. Both are used by countries and groups within countries to
advance their interests, often at the expense of others. To influence or
defeat an opponent, knowledge can be more useful than military force.

The type of intelligence described in this book, signals intelligence
(SIGINT), is the largest, most secret and most expensive source of secret
intelligence in the world today.

Like the British examples, and Mike Frost's Canadian examples, these stories
will only be the tip of the iceberg.

There is no evidence of a UKUSA code of ethics or a tradition of respect
for Parliament or civil liberties in their home countries.

The opposite seems to be true: that anything goes as long as you do not
get caught. Secrecy not only permits but encourages questionable operations.


Three observations need to be made about the immense spying capability
provided by the ECHELON system.

The first is that the magnitude of the global network is a product of
decades of intense Cold War activity. Yet with the end of the Cold War
it has not been demobilized and budgets have not been significantly cut.

Indeed the network has grown in power and reach. Yet the public
justifications, for example that 'economic intelligence is now more
important', do not even begin to explain why this huge spy system
should be maintained. In the early 1980s the Cold War rhetoric was
extreme and global war was seriously discussed

Never forget what it means to be heavily monitored: there is no place to hide.

Here is a more detailed example of how government expands surveillance
(and thus control) in a seemingly never-ending manner...consider this when
talking about a National ID Card:

Is it okay for the government to look at your property while walking by and
if the officer spots marijuana plants growing to get a search warrant?

Of course it is.

..then courts ruled that infrared surveillance of homes was permissible.
