"This will work until governments start using it to censor speech that most people feel should be heard"
The US government is already using these tactics to censor discussion about people they really don't like, like Snowden or Manning. Claiming the subjects to be "state secrets".
"But I'm glad Microsoft is shedding legacy so aggressively."
A dangerous course of action. "Legacy" (i.e. win23) is what keeping MS' market share large. Shred that and their market share vanishes. Windows Phone market share, in the lower single digits and shrinking, is a good example of that.
And Android is the clear winner, with iOS a good second. I don't see more than 2 major OSes on this market. Other OSes will only remain alive when they are developed for free, or when big companies are willing to compensate the losses (Samsung with Tizen and Microsoft with Windows Phone).
They mention only companies, assuming power over them if they sell products in the UK. The capitalist status quo. So open source software or free software developed outside the UK can just ignore that law. Blocking services might be an option (Signal / TextSecure) or not (SMSSecure, pgp/GnuPG).
Just as NSA snooping has a technical solution, encryptiion; do have debt collectors calls: call blockers with social options. I didn't know the problem was so big in the US, but when I searched for call blockers in Google Play I found some with community-maintained databases of numbers used by sales people, debt collectors and other phone scum.
""to make myself reasonably available" means for me: not available unless they pay me as a contractor whatever I ask. For $10,000 / hour I will be available for consultancy work.
Some company tried to enforce that clause in The Netherlands after THEY fired someone. When it came to court, the judge ordered that they could enforce it, but then they had to pay the former employee full salary for doing nothing at home because it would prevent him from getting a job. Suddenly the clause was dropped...
They seemed not to have learned from Amazon's failure. The only buyers of this device are probably those who will replace the adware with a custom rom.
The amount of those scholarships shows clearly that intelligence is not evenly distributed among the human races. Some are more intelligent than others.
BTW, we need more emojis to express political ideas. A swastika and a hammer and sickle emoji are badly needed when discussing politics. To describe one's opinion about a certain politicial perhaps gallow and guillotine emojis. Now we are stuk with the much too soft middle finger emoji.:-)
At least with the new racial emojis we can now describe a white cop shooting a black guy, but the smiley face to show after that is available only in yellow.
The equilibrium temperature on earth might become a little higher, but since radiating heat goes with T^4 (ignoring all greenhouse effects here) it probably would not be a little higher.
Inertial confinement is just fusion bomb research wrapped up in a nice story. Tokamaks might work in the future (JET already reached physical break-even, ITER will probably reach technical break-even) but they'll have so much engineering issues (mainly because the hull will become very radioactive) that the remaining power will probably be so expensive that wind and solar will be the much cheaper solution.
Easy: root the device and uninstall them with Titanium Backup. You need to know what you're doing though: uninstall the wrong package and your phone muight start acting weird(er?).

Your computers will be assimilated. Resistence is futile. All your computers will be made to service us.

This is going to be golden buisiness for tuning companies who will put back the original software (and perhaps some extra's).

If you're interested in protecting that you would not do any buisiness with India in the first place.
So, you reason that climate fearmongering because it earns you a position of influence and research funds should be prosecuted under RICO laws too?
This "solution" would mean people would switch using other adblockers that do what they are supposed to do.
Thereare no good ad networks, maybe some are less evil than others but that's it.
The only good ad is a blocked ad!
Or maybe hu just got an offer he couldn't refuse... (http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/an-offer-he-cant-refuse.html).
Too dumb to Googlre for "Streisand effect".

We already have a pig emoji for that.
Yes, and in North Korea you are not free to critisese the Great Leader. End of a similar story.

But for that we need lithium, which supply is limited.

No, but you do have to worry about hackers. And hackers are much cheaper than military drones.
