Do the parents really care, or are they more concerned that their searches for (insert adult thing here) might get blocked and make them frustrated? The majority of parents in the UK really care, and that's why they don't want a web filter they can't control to ensure their kids don't get past it. Now I'm reloading my (illegal) 9 millimetre so as to be ready to shoot down your next strawman.
Now I'mma go on an online spending spree, then report my debit card as stolen. When I'm asked how the thieves possibly got hold of my details in order to spend so much, I'll just link them to this article. Thanks!
Unless the websites of the local police and the white pages are included in a blacklist (collateral damage), and you can't use a printed white pages during an emergency. Simples!
If a package that turns out to be 20 pounds of heroin successfully crosses the border from Mexico to the US, I would want to know exactly what U.S. Customs and Border Protection are doing to earn their tax dollars.
Unless the company name includes the phrase 'Online Pharmacy' and is emblazoned all over the packaging, then no, FedEx can't know that an online pharmacy is sending the drugs. Please set up a new strawman to be shot down, it's kinda fun!
“I love my FedEx guy ‘cause he’s a drug-dealer and he doesn’t even know it.” That's the important point, isn't it? FedEx doesn't know what's in the parcels it delivers, its job is merely to deliver them.
Which was kinda my point. Verizon should be giving their customers what they paid for instead of disregarding them and blaming Netflix for its woefully outdated network.
Since you used the Internet to discuss extortion schemes, you are now in violation of Patent #8621662, which is our client's patent on squeezing money out of reluctant payers by various methods on the Internet. (See? Adding the words 'on the Internet' does make something patentable if you're stubborn enough.)
I accidentally typed 100 when I meant 80, which Spain's copyright was for at least some time, because I had Mexico's copyright length in my head. Also, the Comparison of Terms doesn't apply between EU nations because of EU directive 93/98/EEC, which made it mandatory.
No. It's simply that in the UK, copyright on Doyle's Works ran out in 1980 (life + 50 under the Copyrght Act 1956), and in 1996, the Berne Convention's Comparison of Terms was restored in the CDPA 1988. So we have to follow Spain's life + 100 (I believe), but can completely ignore Mexico's since it isn't a member of the EU. Simples!
I would say the same to you as you seem only interested in yesterday and not what possible for tomorrow. Hmm... so why not get rid of the DRM that never worked yesterday and is thus obsolete before tomorrow arrives. You do know it's called Digital Restrictions Malware for a reason, right? *cough* Son¥ BMG rootkits *cough*
