  Dumb judges

  on Court Says You Can Be Liable For Merely Sending A Text Message To Someone Who's Driving
  Ah the USA courts... I laugh at your continued attempts to blame anyone else for the stupidity of an individual.
  How can they be serious? Next they will blame a manufacturer of motor-homes if people walk away from the wheel when engaging cruise control. Oh wait - they did that already! Dumb arses. Next they will ban hot water taps from delivering hot water for fear of scalding. And what about stoves? Nasty burning things - ought to be banned.
  Stupid people - why not just tell them how f--ing stupid they are and send them on their way?

  on Steve Jobs Is 'Big Brother' And Smartphone Users Are 'Zombies,' According To NSA Cell Phone Tapping Presentation
  Steve Jobs is big brother? Really? So it's now the father, son, big brother, and holy ghost?
  
  Ah it makes sense now why Adam and Eve were told not to eat from the Apple tree. I always used to wonder about that!

  Judges

  on Court Says WiFi Isn't Radio Because It's Not Audio; Therefore WiFi Sniffing Can Be Wiretapping
  Clearly, ignorant judges make bad decisions. It seems that the legal counsel had no idea what Wifi was either or they would have presented an expert witness to explain to the (un)learned judge that wifi is indeed a radio signal.
  
  On the issue of wiretapping, I have never understood how a wiretapping law could apply to videotaping anyone. Where is the wire being tapped?

  on NSA Is Tracking Mobile Phone Location On So Many People It Can't Handle The Data Storage
  They already do. And this is a direct result of the dumb US electors who voted GW Bush into power! And the dumber ones who are letting Obama get away with not dismantling the NSA.

  McCarthyism

  on NSA Is Tracking Mobile Phone Location On So Many People It Can't Handle The Data Storage
  Is it rampant imperialism or a continuation of the USA paronoia dating back from McCarthy's era where anyone who even thought about the word communism were deemed to be enemies of the state.

  NSA & TSA

  on Confirmed: There Is No Real Oversight Of The NSA's Surveillance
  The NSA need to be brought under the control of people who are not power-hungry spies. And while they are doing that they ought to also disband the TSA who are a damned expensive nuisance who do nothing to improve air travel security.
