tsu doh nimh writes "A former executive for banner ad giant DoubleClick has been selected to be the first ever privacy czar for the Department of Homeland Security, says this Washingtonpost.com story." Just leaves you speechless ....

FYI: your sig intrigued me but the website was down. You might want to update either your sig or your website. People really do click on those links, you know...
I would have to say that explosives are the most abused technology in all of history.
Of course, you post this after I correct my own mistake. I made the simple mistake of assuming the executive was the one involved with DoubleClick when they got in trouble with the FTC. No, this former CEO, Kevin O'Connor didn't think anything they were doing was wrong. That's why they got in trouble in the first place. It's nice to know you're so good at correcting others' mistakes, but perhaps you should do a better job of it by being a bit more prompt. I'll make sure I do a better job of reading the articles before I post. As it stands, we've both wasted posts in this discussion.

Two minutes after, through posting delays and such, it wasn't there when I wrote it. I commend you on your ability to admit you were wrong.

Because you didn't read the article, and responding trying to go along with the Slashdot typical knee-jerk reaction...

Nobody is talking about him.

Prompt is now a 2 minute window, good to know. You should read the articles, that's why they get posted. Now me, I just flame people who can't read. It's like playing violent video games and helps relieve the tension of work.

C'mon guys. Mod me offtopic, or stupid, but this isn't even a good troll. I could've done one, but this isn't it.
In point of fact, there were approximately 30 people close to clinton who had been tried for felonies while he was president. He was nearly impeached. People close to him died by violent means, be it suicide or murder. He took advantage of an intern working under him.
Sure, we bash bush here. It's the popular thing to do. Although people's comments may anger me, and are obviously just a political blurb to get people mad at the President, I don't mod you guys down.
I guess it's just another example of going against the flow on slashdot. Heaven forbid i say something pro-microsoft, or my karma will be doomed!
Who is this Anonymous Coward character, how does he post so much, and why is he always such a whore?
