Such naivete in covering CA data broker law (and jumping in carelessly). Unanswered questions: Who audits all of them, how, when, how frequently, with or w/o any notice? What are criminal law specifications in the bill that apply to violators? What are civil law specifications and/or limits on the infringed in the bill? What are criminal and civil punishment on the Gvt of CA and its employees in this system in case of violations that will inevitably happen? Who carries the cost of related (both against the businesses and Gvt of CA) legal costs in case of violations (Gvt runs the system, even if business violates it, it failed so it should bear any initial lawsuit costs untill it can be recouped from the business,...)? In short, this is ungovernable business and the only safe option is absolute, federal level ban. CA system lacks any trust to touch it with a 10ft poll.

DNS Benchmark v2 is Finished and Available! Guest:
That's right. It took an entire year, but the result far more accurate and feature laden than we originally planned. The world now has a universal, multi-protocol, super-accurate, DNS resolver performance-measuring tool. This major second version is not free. But the deal is, purchase it once for $9.95 and you own it — and it's entire future — without ever being asked to pay anything more. For an overview list of features and more, please see The DNS Benchmark page at GRC. If you decide to make it your own, thanks in advance. It's a piece of work I'm proud to offer for sale. And if you should have any questions, many of the people who have been using and testing it throughout the past year often hang out here.

BootAble – FreeDOS boot testing freeware
To obtain direct, low-level access to a system's mass storage drives, SpinRite runs under a GRC-customized version of FreeDOS which has been modified to add compatibility with all file systems. In order to run SpinRite it must first be possible to boot FreeDOS.
GRC's “BootAble” freeware allows anyone to easily create BIOS-bootable media in order to workout and confirm the details of getting a machine to boot FreeDOS through a BIOS. Once the means of doing that has been determined, the media created by SpinRite can be booted and run in the same way.
The participants here, who have taken the time to share their knowledge and experience, their successes and some frustrations with booting their computers into FreeDOS, have created a valuable knowledgebase which will benefit everyone who follows.
You may click on the image to the right to obtain your own copy of BootAble. Then use the knowledge and experience documented here to boot your computer(s) into FreeDOS. And please do not hesitate to ask questions – nowhere else can better answers be found.
(You may permanently close this reminder with the 'X' in the upper right.)
