Slashdot Mirror
Extradition of Warez Suspect Blocked
An anonymous reader writes "Following up on an earlier Slashdot story, the extradition of alleged DrinkorDie leader Hew Raymond Griffiths has been denied. The judge in the case ruled that Griffiths, an Australian who had never set foot in the United States, had committed the alleged actions in Australia and had never fled from an extradition country. Therefore, the US hadn't made its case. Griffiths' attorney points out that he should have faced trial in Australia if anywhere, but .au authorities never charged him, which upset the DOJ and led to the extradition attempt. More info can also be found. The US (represented by Australian prosecutors) have fifteen days to appeal. One wonders how the US government would react if a foreign nation tried a similar approach."
Haha! Made you think about your dirty bits, sinner.

And the US is Penal Colony #3.
Was using premier to mean Prime Minister

And... ???!
If Google really cared they would fix Android Chrome to reflow text, instead of discriminating
I would have to agree with your comments. Threads like this, and ./ as a whole, have started to take a ultra liberal approach to everything. For starters, search for RFID, Patriot Act, Black Courts, or Echelon.
Do I really care that a manufacturer knows I bought their shampoo at a corner store at 11pm on Friday? Of course not! The outrage over RFID tags is similar to UPC codes.
As for this loyal slashdot reader for 8 years - time to go someplace else for my tech news. The garbage articles and comments are finally too much to bear.
