... that's the operative phrase here. Is there, as you suggest, an existing law? Or are we talking about taking a characteristically-British in-person mark of disapproval... such as tossing a saucer full of clotted cream at someone, or soiling their spats... multiplying by "the Internet", and totaling up with time spent in the hoosegow? (Forgot the "quadruple" part.)
60 Minutes was delighted to expand the story... because that means that next week, CBS can tell the story (true story!) of how supergenius Walter O'Brien, the legend behind their "Scorpion" series, was able to look down an AT&T transatlantic fiber bundle in New York, decode the optical bitstream on-the-fly using magic sunglasses he invented, and discover a large shipment of hummus headed to Pakistan to a certain "Mr. B. Inladen". The rest, of course, is history... how O'Brien led the helicopter attack squad, and, to this day, enjoys wearing a souvenir pair of Osama's red boxer-briefs.
And thanks to Comey, he did it all without a warrant.
Just like a religious promise of heavenly immortality... or Mr. Ponce de Leon's magic fountain... it's a promise of safety and security, now and forever!
Sounds idyllic to me. I'm having copies of my house, car and safe deposit box keys made, and driving them downtown to Sergeant Phil at the local PD -- and then, here comes carefree living!
Telcordia is one of the original post-Judge-Green chunks of AT&T... a research unit with its roots in Bell Labs; the balance of The Labs is now owned by Alcatel, making them "foreign" in the same sense as Telcordia. That these US organizations now each have a multinational parent is only disturbing to those interests that would like to co-opt them and bend them to their will for illegal counterintelligence purposes.
This could have served as the plot of several old "Rumpole of the Bailey" episodes. And may still surface as a ripped-from-the-headlines potboiler on "Law and Order UK".
"... the original setup of the piece is about "content marketer" (what the hell is that?)"
Another newspeak buzzword: broadly, using "content" to drive your marketing efforts. In practice, its proponents are talking almost exclusively about video, whether in blog-like settings, social media, out long-form outlets. Her intent might be to warn noobs off from using Disney "Cars" rips while promoting the local service station.
"... those who present a threat to public disorder... members of the public who have done little more than organise meetings..."
If memory serves, the last time the Brits did this sort of thing, people in Boston started getting crazy and throwin' tea around. Didn't end well, if I recall correctly.
Agree with the dissent. The etymology of "drone" has always been associated with military aircraft; and cameras, in particular, have been stuck onto hobbyists' remote control aircraft, both fixed wing and rotary wing, for decades.
I know, hey, it's only words; but sometimes words are all we've got.
Herodotus may have published in 440 BC, but his heirs have been closely following the adventures of the Conan Doyle estate. And they're talking subpoenas.
What a happy coincidence that his nemesis is called "Peaceful Streets". Pretty quickly reveals the personal nature of the vendetta... imagine having to say, "I'm against Peaceful Streets!" Delicious.
"It's true that there are some different demands and limitations on wireless networks..."
More like, "... some different demands and potential limitations..."; a few recent pieces have highlighted the fact there's still a net surplus of wireless bandwidth, and while some claim dire shortfall projections, it's much more likely that innovation will continue to boost capacity, and the surplus will remain.

It has come to BBB's attention that the company will demand the removal of any complaint, web post or other publication that constitutes a breach of the terms and conditions agreed to by the consumer at the time of purchase, regardless of whether or not the consumer complaint is resolved.
Don't forget that by titling his computer program "EMAIL", he can rightly claim to have "...invented EMAIL". Meaning that one application.
And now, dear friends, I'll return to authoring a grocery-list app called "FOOD". And when I'm done, you may all worship me, saying, "You invented FOOD." And you'll be right!
Because... brick-and-mortar theaters, right? That's the place we all really want to see films. Of course.
Since literal box office revenue... the cash drawer and the ticket printer and all that... is the only thing that counts, young Chloe will no doubt be willing to forgo the points she gets from cable, on-demand and disc releases. Or maybe not.
Quick... before the heirs of that 50's/60's game board manufacturer catch on -- somebody file an application for playing bingo using auto license plates instead of numbers... while driving in a car!
