Review: 6 slick open source routers
DD-WRT, Tomato, OpenWRT, M0n0wall, PfSense, and Vyatta suit a wide range of devices and networking needs
Hackers of the world, unite! You have nothing to lose but the lousy stock firmware your routers shipped with.
Apart from smartphones, routers and wireless base stations are undoubtedly the most widely hacked and user-modded consumer devices. In many cases the benefits are major and concrete: a broader palette of features, better routing functions, tighter security, and the ability to configure details not normally allowed by the stock firmware (such as antenna output power).
[ Also on InfoWorld: Teach your router new tricks with DD-WRT. | Get expert networking how-to advice from InfoWorld's Networking Deep Dive PDF special report and Technology: Networking newsletter. ]
The hard part is figuring out where to start. If you want to buy a router specifically to be modded, you might be best served by working backward. Start by looking at the available offerings, picking one of them based on the feature set, and selecting a suitable device from the hardware compatibility list for that offering.
In this piece we've rounded up five of the most common varieties of third-party operating systems, with emphasis on what they give you and who they're best for. Some of these are designed for embedded hardware or specific models of router only; some are designed as more hardware-agnostic solutions; and some are intended to serve as the backbone for x86-based appliances. To that end, we've presented them with the more embedded-oriented solutions first and the more generic-PC oriented solutions last.
DD-WRT is a popular router firmware choice not only with hobbyists and hackers, but router manufacturers as well. Buffalo, for instance, uses DD-WRT as the basis for many of its home and prosumer router offerings. The original product was created in 2005 for the Linksys WRT54G router, a device designed to accept Linux-based firmware, and the core software is available as a GPL offering. Note that there may be fairly major differences in implementation or presentation between the core version of DD-WRT and third-party, router-specific editions such as Buffalo's.
Supported hardware: DD-WRT supports Broadcom, ADM, Atheros, or Ralink chip sets, but be aware that not all devices using these chip sets are automatically compatible. Some may require unit-specific hackery to work; some may not work at all, period. The DD-WRT maintainers also keep a database of supported devices, along with a list in their wiki of both devices and features.
Features: DD-WRT provides a breadth of powerful features not normally found in consumer-grade routers, such as ChilliSpot (for creating commercial-grade Wi-Fi hotspots), the AnchorFree VPN system, and support for the NoCat wireless community network system. It also comes in a range of differently sized builds, from the 2MB "micro" build that supports only the most essential functions to the 8MB "mega" build that has, well, everything. This allows the firmware to be placed on devices of widely varying storage capacity.
Limitations: The core version of DD-WRT is updated very infrequently. If you want more frequent updates, you either must go with an interim beta or pick a manufacturer-supplied version with regular revisions.
Recommendation: DD-WRT is the best choice for most users. The fact that DD-WRT comes as a stock preload (albeit with mods) in many routers makes it easy to get your hands on a router with it both preloaded and tuned specifically to work with your hardware, as well as to keep it updated.

One or two years ago me and a friend of mine asked if we can take over the popular Blue Ice theme. We got permission and we updated the theme for Firefox 3.6. Unfortunately it had some issues and was removed. My friend is not that good at theming so he abandoned the theme as well but now I'm bringing it back.
Version 1.0.07032012 of Blue Ice.
RC 1. If the theme gets popular and if there are enough users and contributions I'll continue to support it and try to add a custom Blue Ice design to every window.

I'm trying to take a stream of data from standard in, compress it one 128 byte block at a time, and then output it to standard out. (Example: "cat file.txt | java Dict | gzip -d | cmp file.txt", where file.txt just contains some ASCII characters.)
I also need to use a 32 byte dictionary taken from the end of each previous 128 byte block, for each subsequent block. (The first block uses its own first 32 bytes as its dictionary.) When I don't set the dictionary at all, the compression works fine. However, when I do set the dictionary, gzip gives me an error trying to decompress the data: "gzip: stdin: invalid compressed data--crc error".
I've tried adding/changing several parts of the code, but nothing has worked so far, and I haven't had any luck finding solutions with Google.
I've tried...
- Adding "def.reset()" before "def.setDictionary(b)" near the bottom of the code does not work.
- Only setting the dictionary for blocks after the first block does not work. (Not using a dictionary for the first block.)
- Calling updateCRC with the "input" array before or after compressor.write(input, 0, bytesRead) does not work.
I'd really appreciate any suggestions - is there anything obvious I'm missing or doing wrong?
This is what I have in my Dict.java file:
import java.io.*;
import java.util.zip.GZIPOutputStream;
public class Dict {
protected static final int BLOCK_SIZE = 128;
protected static final int DICT_SIZE = 32;
public static void main(String[] args) {
InputStream stdinBytes = System.in;
byte[] input = new byte[BLOCK_SIZE];
byte[] dict = new byte[DICT_SIZE];
int bytesRead = 0;
try {
DictGZIPOuputStream compressor = new DictGZIPOuputStream(System.out);
bytesRead = stdinBytes.read(input, 0, BLOCK_SIZE);
if (bytesRead >= DICT_SIZE) {
System.arraycopy(input, 0, dict, 0, DICT_SIZE);
do {
compressor.write(input, 0, bytesRead);
if (bytesRead == BLOCK_SIZE) {
System.arraycopy(input, BLOCK_SIZE-DICT_SIZE-1, dict, 0, DICT_SIZE);
bytesRead = stdinBytes.read(input, 0, BLOCK_SIZE);
} while (bytesRead > 0);
catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}
public static class DictGZIPOuputStream extends GZIPOutputStream {
public DictGZIPOuputStream(OutputStream out) throws IOException {

If four-fifths of processed food has GM ingredients, how is labeling going to help? Every box will say "Contains GM corn" or similar. What will consumers gain from that information? People who eat processed food will continue to do so; people who avoid processed food will also continue to do so. As a resident of Vermont, I am pretty sure of only one thing: this law will raise costs and restrict our choice of food, as food makers large and small will decide it's not worth the trouble to make special packages for our tiny market.
We don't learn, it's the same old story:
- We have not found anything that proves that tobacco is harmful
- We have not found anything that proves that pesticides are harmful
- We have not found anything that proves that food preservatives and colorants are harmful
- We have not found anything that proves that a box that emits a high frequency electromagnetic field 1cm from the brain (aka mobile phone) is harmful
Then, after 40-50 years, the long term effects appear and tobacco kills, many preservatives and colorants that we have been eating for years are banned because they are cancerigen, same with many types of pesticides...
So, right now, there is not enough information to know if GM foods are harmful or not, we will know in 40-50 years. Scientists that say that they are safe and scientists that say that they are harmful know nothing, as history proves again and again.
That's why I am shocked that the Economist is against giving me the option to choose what kind of food I want to eat. If I want GM free food, organic food... I have the right to know and choose.
By the way, in the last 2-3 monthes, high profile articles talking nice about GM food in a lot of media (Economist, Wired, MIT tech review...)
So basically what you're saying is that science is valid when it agrees with your predetermined beliefs or knowledge (i.e. smoking tobacco can cause cancer) but invalid when it refutes them, as it has done with the GM food.
Look for and buy foods labeled as "organic" or "non-GMO" or "salt-free", or whatever you choose.
The only way to determine whether a specific food does some harm is to eat it. That is how we discovered that peanuts can do some harm - they were never tested. The same goes for celiac disease - we have been eating wheat for thousands of years and nobody saw a problem.
Oh you are so right. Cell phones are killing all of us. Food preservatives are killing all of us. We are dying. We are all dying. If we don't get rid of all technology, all GMO's, if we don't go back to being cave men then we are all going to die. You are an idiot, Malthusian joke. It is people like you, without reason, without science, without a brain that prevent this world from getting ahead of being animals. I will bet anything you never took a science class in college, you are a humanities major and you have some crappy job or are a professional protester.
But we do know there is great harm. It comes primarily from the Glyphosate ( Roundup ) herbicide that is enabled to be used in immense quantity by GMO cropse, which are bred to be resistant to it.
Google someone called Dr Seneff, a researcher at MIT and listen to her research on the effects of Glyphosate. The only difference in the research which finds harm, is that it is based on tests that last more than a few weeks, which is how Monsanto does their testing. They know if they feed the rats any longer they will develop cancers, so they limit the test duration.
Also Google Dr Seralini.
That is not what he said. Read it again. We need LONG TERM studies. This article is shameful corporate propaganda. Information is the the life blood of democracy. If GMO's are so safe, what are they afraid of? Labeling empowers consumers to vote with their dollars. A classic free market. What the author is implying is that our corporate overlords know better and what we don't know won't hurt us. A very dangerous attitude.
No, what I said initially was correct - that science is being rejected when it doesn't agree with pre-determined viewpoints. This is an increasingly common and unfortunate characteristic of the American Left.
As the article notes, long-term studies have been conducted on GM crops. But we all know that no study, no matter how lengthy or how well conducted, will ever satisfy the anti-GM crowd, so let's cut the crap and call a spade a spade. I assume by "corporate propaganda" you mean "this article disagrees with my internet assembled beliefs about how agriculture works".
If you want to label GM food, fine. Put a label on the back of the package with the ingredients list. That will enable people who really want to avoid GM food to find the information and make the choice. But of course, that won't satisfy the anti-GM crowd. The label they want is large and filled with unfounded warnings to the consumer that have no basis in scientific fact.
And again, if you read the article, you'll note how the introduction of such labels actually results in less choice and higher food prices.
Oh those inconvenient little facts. The Left would so like to do away with them!
@Stanford-Berkeley-Grad: Yes you are totally right, I am very sorry. Scientists through history are always right, they have always been and they will always be. Amen.
(hint: it's ironic, I see you like to swallow literally everything you read). Here the irony finishes, from here you can read literally:
Some guys here take everything so dramatically. I just say history (I know it's not science, sorry) proves that many times science is wrong. We truly believe something, then a new theory, or new tools, appear, and sometimes good is proved wrong and wrong is proved good. Then new scientists build on this pask knowledge (good or bad) and that's how science evolves. It's a very good system, it has worked since Descartes and it has brought us humans where we are (each generation is usully better than before). Thinking that science is always right means that you totally misunderstand the way science works, sorry.
Keeping this in mind, I think as a consumer I have the right to know how my food is made, and decide.
Btw... Stanford-Berkeley-Grad? If it is true, what a failure for them. They should have taught you some critical thinking instead of just swallowing everything they teach you. And they should have taught you to explain your points without insulting. What a scientist...
I am a scientists. many studies tried to see any hearmful effects of GMO food and so far not much has been found. What does that mean: more GMO food for the poors who are dying every second due to starvation.
If you don't like GMO food and then pay the price for the organic food. What gives you the right to prevent these GMO food from helping out the poors. Time to wake up America. Imagine you or your kids in these poor regions.
This was the argument 20 years ago. Surprise! There are still no more or less poor or underfed people due to GM food. In fact, the seeds being sold in most of these poor countries prevents them from making steps in the right direction because they cannot reproduce. This is effect makes them slaves to a corporate entity because they have to keep buying the seeds.
How does labeling food "prevent these GMO food from helping out the poors."
Okay so, I am clearly a liberal. Like if you want to stack your liberal credentials against mine, you will totally lose.
But the opposition to GMO foods on human health grounds is pretty much unfounded. Selecting for certain tiny traits is not going to make a safe natural food suddenly toxic to humans.
It will, however, make these genetically modified plants infertile on their own. If you want to object to these things on the grounds of business practices because they require anyone who buys these seeds to continue to buy seeds from their producing companies, rather than allowing them to reproduce their own seeds through their own crops, that's a different argument. It does create a monopolistic hold over farmers in exchange for increased yields and that might be a problem.
You clearly misunderstood the anti-GMO arguments - there are at least 4-5 different ones, yet you didn't pick up any of them (OK, perhaps the +1 about driving small farms out of business, maybe.)
Wow, the number of anonymous and obviously paid pro-GMO scumbags and (openly greedy yet secretive) "farmers" - I'm quite sure most of them never seen a cow in their entire life - is astonishing here... this is clearly not the usual 'commentariat', they are just the usual stupid bots, parroting the same false crap their paymasters at the world's most evil corporation (Monsanto, that is) told them - talk about being desperate! :D
I could start lining up the BS they keep claiming but it's rather pointless, they are clearly too stupid to even reply with facts - I cannot imagine what argument can be made about the fact that the Bt toxin, used in GMO corn, was already detected in the blood of pregnant women and their babies (yes, you can simply Google it, it's a ~3 years old story)... and there are arguments like that, not to mention the fact that GMO junk CONTAMINATES ARE ORGANIC CROPS and as such it definitely NEEDS TO BE BANNED (unless these "farmers" are willing to be sued and pay up if their seeds unique ID shows up in our crops, in a reversal of the current Monsanto-led lawsuit tactics.) THanks to the internet and the media Monsanto cannot keep a lid on them anymore, clearly - the end is near, scumbags, you cannot fool anyone by buying awards and prizes like you did for years (see the preposterous World Food Prize Foundation award scandal, it shows just how desperate these parasite are now. :D)
Look at countries with hundreds of years of agricultural history like Austria or Hungary or Germany or Switzerland or France - they all banned GMO and the reason is simple: parasites like Monsanto and their ilks cannot sell their nonsense to people who are producing their own food (quite successfully) for hundreds of years, much longer than this PoS, poison-producing parasitic chemical company even been around (forget learning about our food chain.)
Quite frankly few things makes me more happy than seeing that no matter just how badly Monsanto (remember, we're talking about the world's MOST EVIL CORPORATION) this parasitic, cancer-like entity are trying to fight it they are CLEARLY LOSING THE WAR OUTSIDE OF America: Europeans are ne masse banning their junk, one country after another, currently 25-26, one way or another, I believe (sans the UK, of course - another issue where your stance once again shows you are not really a European country anymore but just a pathetic corporate colony and money launderer for bloody dictators and Russian oligarchs :)), Russia already did it, Asian countries started banning it, South America is pushing them out everywhere...
...cannot wait for the day when Monsanto will be completely gone from the EU, Asia-Pacific as well as from South America - now that will be the day when even the crooks in Congress will finally move and act, putting an end to this scumbag corporation.
Wow, come NONE of my edits were posted...? And how the hell "our" became "are" in my text...?
And where's the delete so I can resubmit a properly edited version...?
Wow, what a junk engine.
Wow, what a DISHONEST PoC hackjob, once again to support big, global corporations!
" Food scares are easy to start but hard to stop. GM opponents, like climate-change deniers, are deaf to evidence. And the world's hungry people can't vote in Vermont."
Broaf. I just threw up a little bit - truly disgusting, Economist, shame on you, you rent-a-journo PoC... I will remember to this junk piece when my sub is up for renewal next year, for sure.
It wasn't the article. You need to switch to a gluten-free diet
Economist, you have tunnel vision. Look at gluten intolerance. How long has the government promoted grains, yet it surely impacts a significant portion of society. Consider how long high fructose corn syrup was used before its downside became known.
People don't trust our government for accurate health/eating information, it is too heavily lobbied by deep pocket companies. People want labeling and the ability to exercise choice. Per Mark Twain, people really believe we have the "best government money can buy." If GM food is the be all and end all, let it be labeled and let its case be made, but not by stealth.
Heres what you just said in a nutshell: "I don't trust the government!!! So lets have them run a labeling campaign that I will trust!!"..I award you no points
Rubbish! We are demanding labeling to make our own choices! If you believe GMOs contain more nutrients and less toxins than other foods, go ahead and eat them! Others may decide differently.
Humans have been living on a gluten-dominated diet for thousands of years. People have been using honey, which has the identical sugars as high fructose corn syrup for thousands of years. People have been modifying the genetic structure of their food for thousands of years, to the point where virtually NOTHING we eat is free from genetic modification.
The Economist provides us with an insight into the completely clueless food faddists, some of whom are posting here.
I will say this again....it is your right to know what your food is and that its safe and healthy...it is NOT in any way shape or form your RIGHT to know what farming practices I use on MY families farm. Our GM grain is NO DIFFERNT than "Organic" grain, so quit saying you I have a right to know. I don't have right to know how you conduct your business unless its something harmful and illegal do I? You activists have way more on your mind for future laws than a pointless label
but everybody has a right to choose from whom to purchase.
If I am a customer, you bet I want to know what I am buying. This is why companies advertise things like iso 9000 compliance, or if they buy fda certified medical treatment, or if their shoes are manufactured by people working in minimally safe conditions.
You might fit in well in North Korea.
Well, this is quite entertaining, this level of embarrassing nonsense... :)
...how can I put it so that even such a simple mind like you can grasp it?
Maybe this way: your "rights" to hide your 'farming practices' ENDS RIGHT WHERE THE PUBLIC' RIGHTS TO SAFE FOOD STARTS.
Or in short: fine, don't tell us anything - then YOU CANNOT SELL ANYTHING from your "families farm" (sic!), period. Show what you try to sell or get out of the market, period. Basic food safety regulation 101, for ages.
YOUR FOOD IS SAFE!!! There is not ONE,not ONE SINGLE piece of tiny freaking evidence you have that says GM corn is less healthy, it is physically the same. You are saying we should label something because you don't like the way it was produced and are scared. You couldn't give a care less about the rights of hard working rural Americans

I'm sorry, but Economist, you've shot yourself in the foot again. Just like there is nothing wrong with GMO foods, there is nothing wrong with labeling them. Did you write such an article when the term "organic" came out. There is no scientific study that demonstrates inorganic food is less healthful than organic food, yet you're complaints, if you have any have been swept up by complacency. Given your tendancy towards logic, I'm sure in the next hundred years you will write an article about the defense of a mere notification label, which is all this is.
Let me see. Economist thought to itself "growth? or no growth?" and when it decided, it wrote this lambasting article which doesn't contain much merit.
PRD, we label food for the irrational food faddists who wish to pay more money for food with a label "organic" on the package. I am certain that there are food suppliers who will add a label to food that says "no GMO" and a $1 to the price. So why do we need a law?
There are only two "foods" I am aware of that are inorganic - water and salt. Everything else is organic.
More GMO food means more Round Up and similar toxins in the bodies of those which eat this rubbish. It is shocking that this newspaper is opposed to a consumer's right to know and decide what they put in their bodies. If you want to pretend Round Up is good for you, that is your right. Some of us would prefer to make our own decision while science, and this newspaper, meanders to the truth.
Glad to see you openly admit you don't believe in the science of agriculture and would much rather cave to scare tactics. Congrats
Prove to me that GMO food has less toxins than organic! Prove to me that GMO food has more nutrients than organic! This is not about scare tactics it is about common sense. Show me the evidence!!
Oh dear god, just shut up already - the Bt toxin from your junk corn was detected in over 80% of pregnant woman and even in their babies... pls just shut up with your inane crap about science.
It is strange that a newspaper that usually enthusiastically supports (informed) consumer choice, transparency, and democracy now advocates the withholding of information from the public, in the face of polling that apparently says that 90 percent (!) of Americans favor being better informed through labeling. If the GMO industry has nothing to hide, it should have no fear. The argument about costs is unconvincing: states already have different rules on a lot of different issues, including deposits on glass bottles. Complying with labeling laws shouldn't be too difficult.
The basic steps to being an anti-GMO'er:
1) Say GMO's cause harm to people, animals and the environment with absolutely no credible scientific resources.
2) Ignore all facts that show a positive light on GMO's...such as decreasing soil erosion, decreasing the need to use more harmful pesticides (such as insecticides) and decreasing the amount of CO2 released from the soil and the burning of fossil fuels from heavy equipment
3) State the reason you want labeling is because "Its your right to know" that GM corn is still corn and in no way different than non transgenic corn...all the while discounting the burden to farmers, store owners and lower income families who don't fear mongour
4) State that the person arguing against you(along with every major scientific body in the world) works for Monsanto so they cant be trusted
5) Repeat till blue in the face
The problem with GMO is not an immediate threat to humans, but a serious threat to nature and then by extension to humans.
GMOs mix genes in ways nature never could. This will lead to new possibilities to drastically change nature, and this is not a good thing since we developed with the nature and environment we have now.
Every crop we grow is a threat to nature then. None of the plants we grow are "natural" They are ALL drastically changed genetically. That goes for the animals we raise, too.
Nature has changes drastically over and over, without man's help. Almost all a the species that have existed on Earth have long disappeared and those we see here today will also be soon gone.
What a load of BS - nature did NOT change over 30-40 years but 30-40 THOUSAND or MILLION years, BY EVOLUTION which science - which you paid GMO trolls keep invoking it without any actual reference - clearly holds as the most efficient way to produce the best-adapted organisms.... and yes, interbreeding (by crossing) clearly follows that as it often produces worse or at least very different results.
Another example of the Vermont disease. Man has intervened in the modification of genetic structures and has produced a huge number of novel genetic species over a period of a few thousand years. NOTHING we grow today existed 4000 years ago. Almost everything we grow today was non-existent a hundred years ago. Since Mendeleev our understanding has made it possible to produce new crop species in tens of years. Use of gamma ray irradiation, introduced over a half century ago to speed up the mutation process, cut that further, Now, direct intervention produces new species with specific characteristics.
The debate around GMOs is quite moot at this point, considering 80% of processed foods contain them. Why do we need labeling at all. The burden should be left to the GMO-free foods to be labelled as such. The rest of us can enjoy reasonably priced groceries.
There still needs to be some controls.
For example, if GMO's contain known allergens, they should be required to list those allergens as ingredients.
no sane company will insert an allergy causing gene into a commercial product.
They are highly tested by each company before release, trust me, been there seen that...I don't know in what area of the world any sane company hell bent on making a long term profit would intentionally release something harmful to its producers and the people buying their goods. What a horrific business strategy that would be

What a horrific business strategy that would be
So? What is the cost of labeling? Let people decide what they want to eat based on accurate information. Maybe it leads to less consumption of processed food, with health benefits all round. If not, so be it.
The cost? Well besides the millions of dollars to companies, businesses and farmers...I guess its also a cost of farmers freedom and rights to not have the gov't up their backside when it comes to how they produce food in a healthy and sustainable fashion....but that's it!
We don't check all of the other food for allergens. We just stumble on them by accident, as with peanut allergy. Why the sudden concern?
"They are highly tested by each company before release, trust me, been there seen that..."
Ahh, thanks for the late night laugh.
If you discover that you have a lot of allergies, you try to avoid stumbling over them in the future. That works better when the foods called 'soybeans' for example don't start including allergens from other foods.
If that started happening, you would no longer be able to avoid those allergens by reading the ingredient list.
It's important to preserve the ability of folks with allergies to eat safely - even where organic foods are unavailable.
I suspect that most biotech companies are concerned about this, but I'm not sure they are required to.
The FDA's page on the subject doesn't specifically address the question:
The safety claims made by FDA are a lot less reassuring than ones I am seeing by some proponents in these comments. All FDA seems to be saying is that voluntary testing on GMO's has been pretty favorable to date when it has been done.
Maybe there is a better resource explaining how we can be sure we aren't getting a different mix of allergens in GMO food than implied by the list of ingredients?
Allergies have to be established by complicated testing. The reaction has nothing whatsoever to do with claims about the foods being "organic" or "non-GMO". As I pointed out, there is a long list of food allergies, none of which have ever been associated with foods labeled as "GMO".
What are you trying to say? If you have an allergy to Brazil nuts for example (established by complicated testing), you should not have a reaction to an ingredient listed as "soybean meal" or "corn syrup" for example.
No. I am saying that an allergy to Brazil nuts is specific and has nothing to do with the possibility of an allergy to another unrelated food. Food allergy are due to narrowly defined reactions to specific properties of a food, and cannot be generalized.
In contrast, an allergy to corn syrup might be related to fructose, and then it would be easy to predict a like allergy to oranges, pears, honey,apples,...
None of this, of course, has anything to do with GMO - GMO-developed pears are no less dangerous than conventional pears.
There was a case where a company was testing a soybean that had been enhanced with a gene from the Brazil nut in order to create a more nutritious Brazil nut. Unfortunately, the resulting soybean had the Brazil nut allergen.
The good news is that the company stopped development of the soybean. If they hadn't, and the soybean had been listed simply as "soybeans" on the ingredients, then people with allergies to Brazil nuts would have had no way to protect themselves, other than to buy only organic foods.
So the point is that GMO foods are not INHERENTLY indistinguishable to the body from other foods. If we want them to be, it has to be through adequate controls.
The important parts of the story are 1) the allergenicity of Brazil nut protein is widely recognized and was identified as a potential problem and 2) the allergenicity of soybean protein is also recognized and has been targeted as a opportunity to improve the acceptance of soybeans through genetic modification. It is likely that the biggest driving force that would lead to diligence on the part of GMO developers would be the risk of failure, and the litigation that would follow.
Yes. I'm sure Monsanto has all of your best interests at heart. Keep thinking that, folks.
And what's with the red herring jab at the end?
Climate change has nothing to do with GMOs. We've had concrete proof that humans directly add to CO2 and melting ice caps. It's not up for debate in serious circles (some Republicans in Washington might disagree but I stress "serious" circles).
We have only begun to see the effects of GMOs in everyday life since they haven't been around THAT long. Yes, farmers have altered crops by changing soil or adjacent plants. But changing the DNA of a plant that did NOT come about through natural selection and then soaking it in Roundup is not what we did millions of years ago.
There are things like CCD in bee colonies, white-nose syndrome in bats, autism, and higher degrees of allergies in humans that need to be researched. I would bet a LOT of money that there are some correlations with GMOs. Not to mention that some of these particular chemicals fundamentally change your unique "gut" bacteria and might lead to an imbalance in the digestion system. But don't worry. I'm sure a MNC like Monstanto (TM) has vetted everything.
Sorry, no. There is actually more evidence (and more understanding) about the effects of GMO than about AGW. You don't get to believe the scientists on one and not the other and be considered rational.
None of the plants we grow are a consequence of natural selection. They all have been created by man. The primary driving force for the mutations that man has exploited is radioactive damage to genetic structures. Plant scientists have been accelerating this by using high doses of gamma rays for over a half century.
Obviously you cannot come up with examples of negative effects of "GMO" foods, so you make them up. Yet, there are long lists of negative effects that common "natural" foods have on people - eggs, strawberries, peanuts, wheat, tomatoes, milk,.... Can you provide a similar list of GMO foods that have been scientifically proven to cause similar problems?
No. So you make up some stories.
"The primary driving force for the mutations that man has exploited is radioactive damage to genetic structures. Plant scientists have been accelerating this by using high doses of gamma rays for over a half century"
Ummm, just what are you trying to say, seriously? :) You really think we didn't have corn back in, say, 1600? You're really not making any sense...
"None of the plants we grow are a consequence of natural selection."
Aye and this is just patently false. Seriously, Monsanto clowns, at least put up a good fight, you cannot be THIS stupid. :)
There is corn still growing in Mexico identical to the ancient corn that was the ancestor to modern corn. It looks nothing like modern corn, and its genetic structure is dramatically different.
But how is that relevant to the use of gamma radiation to create useful mutations? You are missing the statement of some connection. Does your observation prove that gamma radiation isn't used??
Give us one example of a modern crop that was developed through "natural" selection. As one example, where did broccoli come from? There is no such plant in nature. Cauliflower? Cabbage? None of these existed a few thousand years ago. Ever eaten a ruby red grapefruit? Many varieties were developed through radiation treatment.

I have to admire you patience trying to educate some of the people that commented here. Most of the time people don't even bother to truly address the arguments that anti-GMO people use, and explain the misconceptions.
And some things are so complex everyone thinks they understand it but in fact have no true grasp of the subject, because in modern science learning a subject takes years of dedication. I think this how many wrongful assumptions and misinterpretations are spread.
Thank you.
Nice to see Mr. Rob S injecting his usual dose of static, confusion and misinformation.
Like previous GMO article discussions.
Again Mr. Rob S, if you are paid or receive any compensation from firms selling GMO products, you should disclose this now.
I think everyone reads martin's response can see
1) Martin provides no response to the assertion that all crops we raise were created by genetic modification.
2) His only response is to make a fallacious attack on the arguer, rather than respond to the argument.
We all understand your frustration with your inability to come up with a counter-argument, Martin, but would it not be better to keep your ignorance to yourself, rather than inform the rest of the world?
"GM opponents, like climate-change deniers, are deaf to evidence"
Very fitting that this statement ends an article from a UK establishment publication (TE), one that wants to extend thier kind of government control over those they believe cannot make the "correct" decisions for themselves. This is the same tactic used by the government control types to promote the campaign agaisnt "man-made global warming" scare tactics backed up by made up science.
How quickly TE forgets the (government Sponsored) East Anglia's (along with others in America) supression of the truth and scientific method to promote and continue to promote a hoax.
Sorry, but you don't get to believe the mountain of evidence that GMO's are harmless (which is true) but not AGW (which is also true) and be considered intelligent or rational. The reverse, btw, is also true.
You might want to provide some links to some of that mountain. I haven't found that it's all that easy to locate.
Take a genetics class at a local university and it'll be quite clear. Genes code for proteins, and it's quite simple to find out if a protein will be harmful. Another way to look at it - if the gene originates in an organism that is safe to eat, you can be pretty sure inserting it into another won't make it unsafe to eat.
Also, I'm at work and ain't got time to dig up research papers that you wouldn't understand.
Not only is this article advocating for consumer desinformation, but also it is simply ignoring the fact that the choice between GM food and non-GM food is only made by those who:
a) can afford it,
b) are very concious about it.
Regardless of whether if GM food is good or bad for me, I like to know exactly what am I being sold.
And finally, everyone at the middle and low end of the income spectrum wil continue to buy the products regardless of whether if they are GM, just because they can not afford to have a choice! Therefore, the whole "crisis" scenario is quite unlikely.
"Regardless of whether if GM food is good or bad for me, I like to know exactly what am I being sold"
Wow....just....wow...this is the typical argument I see everyday and its so disturbing
Do you also like to know if the sucrose in the foods you buy was derived from cane or beets?
Truth be told, GM foods have been around since the beginning of organized agriculture, when farmers started cross-breeding plant species to get a bigger apple. I read once that the "original" watermelon was less than half the size of the ones we have today. That didn't happen in a lab in the last 20 years. Or even the last 50.
Point is, they're now doing in labs what farmers have been doing for hundreds - if not thousands - of years.
How to feed an ever growing population is a big issue, and going more organic/GM-free is not the answer. Once read that if the whole world went organic tomorrow, a third of the world would starve. In a world otherwise concerned about environmental sustainability and reducing our ecological footprint, please explain how developing a staple crop that only needs 50% of the water as its "organic" version is a bad thing??? Or that inserting a gene into wheat that will increase yield by 20% within the same acre of land is overall a harmful proposition???
Facts matter. Fear is worse.
Socialists don't need guns to scare the f*** out of me.
good for you then that this has absolutely nothing to do with socialism!
supramark - do you honestly beleive that government control has nothing to do with socialism? amazing
It is odd (and suspicious) that you are advocating rules that keep information away from consumers. By that, you are treating us as incapable of making informed decisions and stupid enough not to be able to remain unaffected by "malicious" propaganda. Totalitarian states are based on the paternalistic and self-interested belief that a chosen minority is better suited to rule the lives of ordinary citizens than themselves... a model that you claim not to support at all, favoring democracy. Thus,I would encourage The Economist to be consistent. After all, free markets are based on the assumption that each one must have access to all the information to make educated decisions.
If the food industry is worried that the anti-GM lobby is fooling people with lies, they should make more efforts to educate public on the safety of what they sell, instead of relying on their financial clout to lobby politicians (and buy prestigious publications, as yours, that rely on advertising money).
And its odd that you are advocating rules and legislation on consumers/producers in this country for no reason whatsoever (other than "I dont like GM food!") while preaching for free markets...hmm
It's also suspicious that the Economist isn't advocating for food to have labels on what day of the week the food was harvested.
Even if there hasn't yet been a single study indicating that Tuesday harvests could be harmful, Tuesday harvests have only been around for a short while! We should adhere to common sense and err on the side of safety.
No one would sensibly anyone argue against more information. Food products need to be labelled for which day of the week they were harvested. Let the consumer choose.
We should ban all biotechnology in rural America until we have 50 years of data that proves Tuesday harvests are ok. Controls must be used with John Deere, CASE IH, New Holland and Massey Ferguson combines with a control of handpicking crews. This will be repeated until our entire agricultural production system fails and China takes over
Are you saying the fact that I live in Argentina now (I have lived in the US for over 5 years, and 3 in the UK) precludes me from having an opinion?
No. I had no idea you live in Argentina. Thats great that you have an opinion on the subject! Its a great industry and interesting topic. Now heres my opinion. You contradict yourself and know nothing about agriculture.
Do you also demand to know whether the sucrose in your foods was derived from sugar cane or sugar beets?
Sorry, when have I made that demand? Stop bothering me with pointless questions
stop bothering us with pointless 'arguments'...next
I have been raised in a farm in La Pampa and still spend a lot of time there. I know some about agriculture. And I can smell money behind a one sided article like this one (that never considers the basis of some GM fears).
It is OK if you disagree... I am fine with that. But stop assuming things about me if you do not know me.
I don't think you have. But you would if you were trying to be consistent, since it's perfectly analogous to whether the corn in your foods is GM or non-GM.
Oh lawd have mercy! I wish we could all be so humble like the billion dollar Organic industry...they would never make stuff up for a profit!
No it's not. Perfect information is one of the cornerstones of free market capitalism. It's for the consumer to get through what's garbage data and what's not. As for preference, I don't care for lima beans and I sure don't want them labelled pinto beans. That might not sound like a big deal but tell that to someone who saves up a bunch of money to go to a fancy restaurant and sees sweetbreads on the menu.
Anyway, it all goes back to caveat emptor. If they need more information about how the food was grown/processed, fine. Anti-GM movements are the 21st Century version of "don't eat with your left hand" or "have an imam/rabbi bless the meat."
Do not blame you for not caring for Lima Beans - they are a carcenogen, this is a little known fact because the Organic Food lobby has been covering this up for years. It is good to see this information is finally getting out. I am not sure why warning labels are not on packages of lima beans- the good news, lima bean consumption has drastically decreased over the last 10 years, as has death from cancer induced by lima bean consumption.
Exactly! It is very odd that TE suddenly becomes an advocate of less information, less consumer sovereignty, and less democracy. Does Monsanto pay you?
A very sound suggestion - I also think we need labels showing whether the seed was planted in conjunction with the 'correct' phases of the moon - apparently this matters a lot - we need to be informed of all possible factors (though I have no idea how we'll find time to read all the detail and do the shopping).

We love big adventures and unique experiences (we climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro for our honeymoon!) which is why we appreciate how great it is to have a private and luxurious place to call home to when you're exploring a new city! We often travel with groups of friends or extended family, and know that it is hard to find a place that fits everyone. We started renting our Capitol Hill rowhouse which fits large groups because we thought other families and groups may enjoy being able to spend time together exploring cities - it's kind of like when you rent a big house at the beach, only you are in the heart of the city!
We've been AirBnB hosts for almost 5 years and have loved making sure our guests have the best vacation experience ever! We have tons of information on great things to see, do, and places to eat! From the Cherry Blossoms, to Mt. Vernon, to the Marine Corps Marathon, we've done it all! We really want to make sure you have a great stay with us and in DC, so let us know if there's something special that we can do to make sure everything is perfect!
