"A routine school disciplinary infraction should land a student in the principal�s office, not in a police precinct,� Mr. Holder said in a statement. It would have been nice if Eric Holder had added, [...] and an infraction should consist of genuinely disruptive or dangerous behavior, not kids pointing fingers at each other and shouting "Bang, bang" during recess. Just sayin'.
I agree with the details of the offences and punishments being published, but I also believe that the names shouldn't be. If I was accused of wrongdoing, I sure as hell wouldn't want my name linked to it at least before I'd had the chance to clear in an appeal.

Um, no. Blue's agenda is that Mike Masnick is Beelzebub, Satan, and Lucifer all rolled into one, and that every time Mike speaks, his words take the form of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Just sayin'.
In other words, the officials there would rather malicious hackers have access to all that info, and are trying to throw the guy who told them they should fix their website in jail. Typical.
Try "Indiana Jones and the Nuclear-proof Refrigerator", it's slightly less painful. I saw the result of Indy using that fridge in Fallout: New Vegas, and believe me, it's not nuclear-proof! Try "Wild Wasteland" to see for yourself.
Even worse than the false positives are the false negatives. I remember having T-Mobile's Web Guard on my first phone back when I was 17. Because Yahoo! Answers had been made unavailable by overblocking, I would just read stories on Kristen's Archives for something to do. My mum did eventually catch me, but instead of getting into trouble, I accompanied my dad to the T-Mobile store the next day while he got the Web Guard removed. The moral of the story is: Instead of relying on third party filtering, download and employ the tools of your choice. Only then can you really know what your children are accessing online. ;)
He said he was working on a new story indicating that the NSA was "obsessed� by the idea that people could still use some Internet devices and mobile phones on airplanes without being recorded. So all I have to do to send stories to my beta reader without Gmail 'losing' the attachments is to fly to Australia and take advantage of the 21 hour flight? Thanks for letting me know!
If you want to access fiction you can download in a variety of formats and freely share with family and friends, click on my name and let's leave the Authors Guild where it clearly wants to be; the 17th century.
In this age of artificial austerity, many parents won't be able to afford the flashy toys they see in adverts. Think how much their disappointment will subside when they're told, "Oh, honey. Santa did his best, but he had to guess what you wanted because the big bad government stole your letter to him." A bonanza for the police as well, what with all the grade-schoolers to arrest for making finger guns as they run around the playground, pretending to 'shoot the government who stole our Christmas presents'.
Re: Re: Just as copyright abolishers masquerading as copyright supporters,
No, I'm sorry, but I have to reply to this because what you said just isn't logical. No way on God's green earth would OOTB have a website blocked as collateral damage, it would be blocked on its merits! ;D
When the photographer goes beyond creating photographs and begins offering their services to the public, then they have to treat all customers equally just like any other business. You don't get to claim that somehow your selection of customers is free speech, because it isn't. I would agree with you if the photographer ran her business in the UK, but she doesn't, she's in the US. As much as I dislike her for being a homophobic bigot, she's in the right on this.
You heard it here first, guys. DropBox is gonna get the drop! Think about it, a cloud storage service that allows its users to store any type of file and to share them. The fact that they charge people to use Pack-Rat only confirms the service is 'an illegal tool that enables widespread copyright infringement' because the fact that Megaupload charged its users was enough to get it shut down for commercial infringement. Check out the facts on Wikipedia for confirmation of my claims.
