    An issue inherent to indiscriminate link prefetching involves the misuse of "safe" HTTP methods.The HTTP GET and HEAD requests are said to be "safe", i.e., a user agent that issues one of these requests should expect that the request results in no change on the recipient server. [13]

    Windows 10 mirrors Windows 8 as noted by Microsoft. [3] Windows 10's hibernation algorithm is solid-state drive optimized. This behavior is carried over to Windows 11. Hibernation is often underused in business environments as it is difficult to enable it on a large network of computers without resorting to third-party PC power management ...

    Google's chairman, Eric Schmidt, is quoted saying "I would be very, very careful if I were a government about arbitrarily [implementing] simple solutions to complex problems" in reference to DNS blocking and the PIPA bill.

    This approach combines the benefits of sleep mode and hibernation: The machine can resume instantaneously, but it can also be powered down completely (e.g. due to loss of power) without loss of data, because it is already effectively in a state of hibernation. This mode is called "hybrid sleep" in Microsoft Windows other than Windows XP. A ...

  8. Extension Mechanisms for DNS - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extension_mechanisms_for_DNS

    The mechanism is backward compatible, because older DNS responders ignore any RR of the unknown OPT type in a request and a newer DNS responder never includes an OPT in a response unless there was one in the request. The presence of the OPT in the request signifies a newer requester that knows what to do with an OPT in the response.

  9. DNS spoofing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_spoofing

    DNS spoofing, also referred to as DNS cache poisoning, is a form of computer security hacking in which corrupt Domain Name System data is introduced into the DNS resolver's cache, causing the name server to return an incorrect result record, e.g. an IP address. This results in traffic being diverted to any computer that the attacker chooses.
