The purpose of these orders is to prevent damage to Australia's international relations that may be caused by the publication of material that may damage the reputations of specified individuals who are not the subject of charges in these proceedings.
AS opposed to the damage caused by a failed cover up - which is ALWAYS bigger. (There's a name for that effect isn't there...)
I faced backwards on my very first flight in a Trident - most of the seats were that way around (it is definitely safer in a crash). Later I flew on an experimental flight in a Nimrod (A converted Comet airliner which still had many of its airliner seats). The seats were arranged in 4's, each around a table as used to be standard on trains.
"There are 56 fields [sic] offices and over 400 resident agencies in the FBI. A requirement to record all custodial interviews throughout the agency would not only involve massive logistic and transcription support ".
The funny part here is just that many will drop US companies, and deal with others - who will likely do the same thing for other governments. That isn't funny - it is rather the whole point. The NSA's action has done serious damage to the cause of freedom worldwide.
Of course many who drop US companies will be government organisations and major companies - who are in bed with their own security agencies and therefore have nothing to fear from them.
about the time that tetra-ethyl lead started being removed from the environment
This is some insane bit of info o.o
No this is absolutely solid evidence - the correlation is observable nation by nation (and state by state in the US).
I am normally totally skeptical about the correlation-causation thing - but the evidence here is solid.
Of course the US poli9ce reaction to this would be to demand that the lead levels of the population be tested and incarcerate everyone showing a high level!
You're optimistically (highly optimistically) (extremely optimistically) (ludicrously optimistically) presuming that Bob and Alice not only have the technical skills to do so, but the self-discipline to pull it off.
Considering the number of research papers and educational texts on cryptography that features the exploits of Alice and Bob it is clear to me that Alice and Bob are the most highly skilled cryptographers in the history of the world!

Ultimately, even in a best case scenario you're unlikely to do better than the original max copyright term the USA had of 28 years, and you'd do well to keep that in mind.
No - the best case scenario is the one that pertained from the dawn of time until the 16th century - no copyright at all.
The problem here is that - as a young country - the USA tends to lack a proper sense of historical perspective.
the Berne Convention's Comparison of Terms was restored in the CDPA 1988. So we have to follow Spain's life + 100 (I believe),
You believe wrongly. The comparison of terms is a rule of the shorter term - not the longer one so it cannot increase the term.
EU copyrights are now harmonised at 70 years pma (that includes Spain - I do not know where you got the 100 from) and that is what applies within any EU country for works originating within the EU.
I'll try and write something and publish it online for you, okay?
So is it just that US law trumps everything else - or is it that the longest copyright term in the world trumps all - in which case - under Mexican law - the whole of Conan-Doyle's output remains in copyright until 2030,
In recent years they have not been about free trade at all. If they were then clearly things like region encoding of DVDs, region restricted access to websites stc etc would be on the agenda (for abolition). No - these deals are about entrenching the positions of powerful companies in a kind of diplomatic game where the objective is to get more value in the concessions made by the other side than you give away.
All of Conan Doyle's works are already in the public domain in the UK - and would be in the US apart from some very strange transitional arrangements put in place when the US transitioned from a "creation+N years" system to an "author's death +N years system. I suggest that anyone who wants to create such derivative works can simply do it in the UK - and then wathc the Conan Doyle estate try to keep such works out of the US.
It seems to me that this lawsuit has one purpose only - to keep the Conan-Doyle estate going - since it will surely be wound up when everything enters the public domain.
