If you don't like the way the police handle things then don't be a thug that breaks the law!
So, the proper way to practice the fine old tradition of civil disobedience to inform your elected representatives of your disapproval of the situation is in your locked, darkened, preferably soundproofed, basement alone.
You're adding nothing to the discussion. Imbeciles like you should be locked up to keep you from hurting yourselves.
The news peddles fear and the public laps it up...
I don't think that's true. Politicians, LEOs, and the media lap it up, but I think most people are pretty indifferent about it now. What the heck can you do about yet another ill defined (or mfgr'd) terror plot or alert? Meh.
I suggest you familiarize yourself with the facts of the situation. And do it somewhere other than a blog written by a confirmed Google shill.
Just to familiarize myself with the facts, who is it you're shilling for again?
I'd guess the slimeballs who're trying to buy favors from elected officials to attack seemingly innocent third parties, but that would be pre-judging you.
See, the thing here is the corruption isn't from other AGs, it's from the MPAA, a fact that shouldn't be buried.
No, the MPAA's involvement shouldn't be buried, but this wouldn't e a problem if the AGs weren't corrupt. They're peddling influence. The MPAA's just a customer.
When the hell is this country going to wake up and realize corporations are the true problem?
They're not. They wouldn't be a problem if the gov't wasn't a problem; if it was doing its job.
Why does Taiwan want to sign up for the TPP without even knowing what it says? Because the TPP is from America, the land of the free, home of the brave, home of Hollywood and Disneyland, etc.
So, Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Korea, Vietnam, ... have been forgotten?
It's not politically feasible for the US government to publicly show that it's fighting against the health interests of the public and in favor of pharma profits.
I cannot understand why this travesty of a system (USTR) is allowed to continue to exist. It's corporate bribery's access to your tax dollars, your elected representatives, and your justice system.
You'd think there's a business model hidden in there, such as if these a-holes even look at you, we'll warn you to seek a declaratory judgement against them, not filed in E. TX.
If Amazon sends you physical goods then they are still using the roads and other infrastructure in Chicago (assuming that's where you have it sent), so it does make sense to allow Chicago to tax it in that case.
No. Roads and transportation are basic infrastructure which everyone expects to be there and working. Why ding Amazon specifically for using basic infrastructure which our taxes paid to be there? Do you work for AT&T?
Yet they go to hell and back to stick it to Ulbricht for a crypto network that fell like a house of cards.
I can't believe all these people (FBI, House & Senate) are just stupid or ignorant. They all have staffs whose job it is to keep them informed and up to date. Yet, it seems the FBI has institutionally forgotten the Clipper Chip, PGP, Zimmerman, and their own decision to just not worry about it. Yet now, again, they do want to worry about it. This is stupid. Comey's looking stupider every moment he or his minions dwell on it. They're infecting whole other countries' politicos (Cameron, Harper, Key, ...) and institutions with this foolishness.
These kinds of statements are cartoonishly evil. They're the kind of ridiculous statements one would have hoped you'd only see in late night TV fictional dramas, not coming from an actual elected leader of a major western power.
Notice how this makes anyone who looks askance at such obvious truths a tinfoil hat wearing, extreme conspiracy theorist? "Why would you not want us to look? We're your gov't. We're only trying to protect you; what you paid your taxes for us to do. Why would you question our purity of motives and intentions? You're not hiding anything, are you?"
I'm sure their excuses for spying on a human rights org will be the kind of logic only torture can bring.
If you're not under their control, you're out of control (to control freaks).
How they manage to justify treating anyone like this is pretty astonishing considering the absolute crap they're doing. What threat could AI possibly be compared to the US gov't's complicit involvement in torture and covering it up?
The control freaks are freaking out and are out of control.

Wikipedia is a rotten source of info.
Bull shit! It's a free encyclopedia and a work in progress, under constant revision and update, ongoing. No, it's not a grand a year subscription from Elsevier for a prestigious journal, but it's hardly dog shit.
... what is the problem with municipal broadband again?
No predator appreciates competition predating on their territory, and for the predator's food supply to rise up and attempt to eliminate him is a vile affront. How dare they?!?
He's not wrong though. The internet absolutely does overreact like none other to anything which can be taken as offensive.
This has been happening forever, in quiet desperation on our part. Now that there's an internet, we can finally scream about them AND be heard! They bitch because it's no longer them to you periaod. Now it's a conversation between equals, and they're not up to that.
I am trying to remain positive about Google fiber, and even Google in general, but they are not the paragons of providing internet service that you keep implying they are.
The implication I see is, even given all the troubles you see, they're lightyears ahead of the purported existing suppliers, and Google fibre is just a sideline for them, not their core business. They're just out to shame the existing market for its obvious failures, which is good whoever does it.
[I'm not a G. fanboi, btw. I don't use their stuff much.]
Attacking people who are opposed to current realities but who make necessary concessions to them in the meantime is known as the tu quoque fallacy. You often see it used, along with ipse dixit (like calling someone a joke), by people who can't come up with a convincing substantive argument.
For the record, anyone who starts quoting obscure terms in dead languages (whether they're laymen, medicos, mathematicians, or lawyers) are sure to lose my interest very soon afterward.
