Dogs Trained to Sniff Out Piracy
RockDoctor writes "Northern Ireland has for decades been using sniffer dogs to detect bombs and bomb-making materials. According to the BBC, a dog trainer in the Province has trained two dogs to sniff out some of the chemicals used in the manufacture of optical discs. While this has an obvious risk of false positives (polycarbonate plastics and their associated plasticizer additives are used in many other industries, for example), it does seem to be effective at locating discs which are not declared in customs manifests, and doing so much faster than human inspection of the cargo can do."
"Animal sex" is as bad as child sex. You fucking sicko.
You must be new here. "Your Rights Online" is the section slashdot uses to try to scare people into hating Microsoft, hating the MPAA/RIAA, or hating America, for any reason at all. It doesn't matter whether or not the subject matter has to do with being online, or to do with affecting your rights. They just call it YRO to make you think that somehow your freedoms are being taken away when they aren't.
Ironic that the word image check for posting this message has the word "adhere" in it.
Excuse me, but how is a dog supposed to sniff terrorism? WMD's, maybe, depending upon what, exactly, it is, but... Uh... No. Just no.
Screw the rules, I have green hair!
