Can you source the claim that the department said he was injured? So far as i know The gateway pundit made up the orbital fractures injury, before the right wing blogs picked it up, leading to faux news running with it. I hadn't seen it coming from the department at all, it was pure disinfo
When i was a time warner subscriber 5 years ago, this was already their policy, i got two nastygrams before proxying up, and both times i found out when they hijacked my browser to the "you've been a bad boy" page. Then you call in, express you lack of understanding and tell them about your open wifi.
I know for a fact Cox did it as well, i was working tier 1 internet tech support for them around then and often had to direct customers over to security.
no idea what the escalations would have been, btguard is a great service.
Re: Loopholes big enough to drive armored trucks through
that's precisely what they did last night. they corraled press into an area near the mobile station and 5 minutes later they were screaming that press was directly in the crossfire if anything happened, and forced them entirely out of the area before they moved in
you made a number of most likely incorrect assumptions there. starting at "it needs to phone home" there's lots of ways to do it, especially since no one lets a pirated game through their firewall.
You know, there have been a few games i bought, because i thought the experience would be better paying. it wouldn't crash, it wouldn't corrupt my save files (looking at you fallout 3). and every single time it turned out the issue was with the buggy build that had gotten pushed out the door, not with the crack.
and 9/10 times, it's the pirates and the modders that end up fixing the bloody thing, when the studio can't even be bothered to patch it's bullshit.
i'm too lazy to run noscript effectively, but httpseverywhere and adblock mostly get the job done. I had no idea how god awful the internet without adblock was until i had to troubleshoot my mothers computer.
i'm sorry masnick, not for you, not for anyone. i'll buy your schwag, but i wouldn't whitelist my grandmas forum on quilting, if my grandma knew what the internet was.
Amen. Awhile back, some random people and i on a forum, managed to reconstruct an entire series that had been printed in the 70's, like 5 books, over the course of 6 months, in .txt files .pdf's and other wierdness, were hosted, and shared, and spread widely enough to insure that they'd never be lost again.
And at the end we felt damned good. We felt like archivists, who had preserved something awesome, and made sure that it would be there for someone to stumble across down the road. It made the jump from tree to data, and will be remembered. I don't feel like a thief, it was a labor of love.
