A bit annoying but also catchy tune. I like Gareth Emery.
PS: YouTube-Embedding works not with https-Links.

I never thought there would be a correlation between them as per Youtube==flash==Adobe==spyware*.

*I cannot think of any other reason why Adobe products would consume so much resources.

@Topic: Btw, why does so much trance have the first minute or so of some boring techno. I always thought how the key difference between them is that pure techno lacks melody.

100% OT:



About Flash:
Flash is not spyware, but you can make it to be spyware. It is just capable of a whole lot of shit (just like javascript) as it turns out example: when you run flash and the programmer wants to know your "real" ip and mac he will get it and i believe he could "push" something onto your computer if he wanted to ... but once compiled for what it can do actionscript is quite fast and easy to use for anyone that ever used any C based language... I'm just saying for a contrast to HTML 5 I still think for the end-user ever thing being separated it is better since at least your able to get rid of javascript (and flash) when you want to be anonymous just a little bit..

So as long as you run js or flash from somebody who wants to get to know you a litte better no https will help you


EDIT:

I just remembered google needs your location and time spent watching the video for its google analytics

I'm not really sure what you meant, I just noticed that the YouTube-embedding-feature of phpBB does not work with https-links.

There are a lot of different remixes/radio edits, and even trance has different sub-styles... I'd say with long intros without much melody it's easier for DJs to use the tracks in live-mixes

What I meant was: it makes no point in using https on a google/adobe-infested site. (as if https really made any difference to begin with)

Of course YouTube knows much about you, because you're accessing their site, doesn't matter if http or https... But with https the man in the middle (sniffing your traffic) can't read the content like login credentials... at least that's the intention behind it. If that really always works in real life is another thing...

Back to topic: Two more relaxed tracks, i found in the last days.

@Samtron: As for man-in-the-middle attacks: unless the attack began in the middle of transmission, there is no defense that I can think of that would stop them from getting any information that you transmitted. If you/server can decode a transmission, so can they using the same algorithm. Especially if they also have your encryption key which you and server exchanged anyway.

This is why passwords are simply useless against such an attack and why challenge-based authentication has been invented. However, youtube uses password-based authentication, so it's trivial to figure it out if someone has a need to break into your youtube account (though I cannot think of a reason to break into someone's youtube account other than perhaps if captcha is giving you hard time or they're insisting on getting your mobile phone number again*).

*Last time I tried to make a youtube account for a friend I could not do it without giving them a mobile phone number, which was out of question.

Wait wait wait. no no no no...

I recommend reading about asymetric encryption (2 keys, one encrypts, otherone decrypts), good stuff...
Also for the MITM http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transport_Layer_Security
Only known possible attack was already fixed in TLS 1.1 (altough it was bit surprise that something was even found (but it used Java aplet ))
Also fun reading and yet understandable is for example diffie-helmann algorithm, how without any secure connection nor preshared knowledge 2 entities can make secure connection:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffie%E2%80%93Hellman_key_exchange

Ofc, anyday vulnerabilty could be found, but yeah...

But another joke is CAs(certificate authorities), where big fucking money flows, as big as security holes that come with this system.
