That's a pretty naive thing to say. Hefty fines do have an impact on earning will most definitely reflect poorly upon an executive. Its also not the executive's place to micro-manage each and every department.
This law is a civil regulation, not criminal law. There isn't much criminal basis for this sort of infraction. Its tortious in nature, specifically negligence (possibly product liability), and the state governments have created statute to coordinate expectations and further define liability.

As much as I respect NYCL, the reason you don't see more like him is that it doesn't pay. Being noble is difficult when it effects your ability to feed your kids.
I laud his efforts, but he is a jewel in the rough.
Ditto, along with BlueFire Security VPN (connects to Cisco based VPN's), RDP and VNC, I can handle virtual all tasks I need remotely--like from a canoe.:D
Agreed on the unimportant email, but plenty of important info gets passed along via email as well.
I also agree that the stuff does need to be transparent. The fact that I pre-configured my wife's computer to do it automatically is proof of that (because she doesn't have a clue)
The core problem is the lack of options right now. Unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a lot of importance placed on secure email so GPG is about all we have.
I read your post the other day and agreed whole heartedly with it. I remember back in '97 when PGP keys were parts of email signatures and such.
Now, its unheard of.
I've set my machines up with GPG and my wife's as well, and autoconfigured them to encrypt any and all email between the two of us, but my attempts to get others to do so has proven fruitless.
I harp the same line Zimm did--when you put a letter in the mailbox, you put it in an envelope, right? Why is email any different?
Nobody will read this since its at the bottom of the page, but lots of major software vendors will not provide support on CentOS.
For example, Oracle will only provide support if its installed on the RHEL version of Linux.
My IT department isn't concerned about the support involved with Linux, but they DO want to make sure they are supported for the big dollar, and incredibly important (data!) side of the business--so they pay for RHEL for production servers.
TomTom and all other major GPS providers sell software as well, in fact a lot of it. Virtually all the GPS device companies sell their own software for use on phones, PDA's, and other mobile devices as well as laptops and such.
Most of them don't even make hardware, they just resell PDA devices with their own software installed on them.
Granted, I didn't RTFA, but does this new change in advertising paradigm increase the value and price of live events to which people aren't going to settle for watching it time shifted.
An example--the SuperBowl. Always considered the grand daddy of advertising costs. People aren't going to watch it 'later', so will the prices for ads during this program jump?
Other examples are shows to which people are going to want to watch immediately or be left out of the 'water cooler convesations'. Granted the Soprano's are commerical free, but what about other broadcast television shows that had final episodes--Frasier, Cheers, Mash, Twin Peaks, etc--that viewers WILL tune into when they occur. Does the advertising cost model increase for those events.
From the basis of the article summary, I was beginning to assume it was some sort of Aync Queue process server methodology to allow players to keep playing when the servers crashed out.
Before Comcast bought it out (though technically the same people and service, I had my broadband service temp. shutdown because they detected an open relay mail server on my line.
Once I shut off relaying, they had no problems turning the service back on.
my bad on the math, 4 hrs sleep does not make for simple arithmetic:D
They definitely started work on Rt3 before the summer of 2001. They may SAY thats when they started but they've been doing demolition, tree teardown, blasting, etc since 2000.
In that time we've been forced to eternally slow construction lanes and closed lanes for no apparent reason.
From what it seems like, they've paved enough for 3 lanes each direction and HUGE ass breakdown lanes. I can only hope they open those extra lanes up during rush hour commutes as they have done for rt93. The roadway is easily as wide as 128/95
Now if they could just finish the Widen3.com project.
Its runs under the same budget as the BigDig and is a simple project to widen Route 3, a 15-20 mile 4 lane (2 each direction) to 5 lanes (3 each direction).
Well, its been over 3 years now and not a single inch of extra lane has been opened (yet they have almost the entire thing paved and still blocked off).
In closing, Massachussetts sucks. If I could get a job elsewhere which could pay my bills, I'd leave in a heartbeat
Has anyone considered a class action countersuit on behalf of p2p users for harrassment and extortion by the RIAA. This sort of thing was being done by SmartCard readers recently harrassed by DirecTV.
My g/f works as a residential phone rep at Verizon and not only have they not been told of any such new regulation, there has not been any training or new systems to support the new regs. I emailed the contact at the FCC and have received no response regarding their ability to enforce this regulation.

The law is already on the books in Massachusetts. Check out my comment below.
The really kicker is the law requires the firm with a data breach to inform several state agencies AS WELL AS the person who's data has been compromised:
"The law requires that a person or agency that owns or licenses personal information about a resident of the commonwealth notify the attorney general, the director of consumer affairs and business regulation, and the affected resident if it "knows or has reason to know of a breach of security"

I only meant they don't support the CentOS version, only the authentic RHEL version.

In test and development arenas we use CentOS.

There are a lot of them available that will integrate with your existing systems.
Authoria (http://www.authoria.com) is one such company which offers a full suite of HCM based products.

Time will tell.
Then I guess your law degree failed to point out that you CAN get the warrants RETRO active.
This means you can do your easedropping and get the warrant AFTERWARDS.
Time is no longer an issue here, and its sad when people try to make that case stick.
From the basis of the article summary, I was beginning to assume it was some sort of Aync Queue process server methodology to allow players to keep playing when the servers crashed out.
Guess I was kinda off on that.
how about external electrode producing small jolts to stimulate the each muscle group every so often to keep them from fading out.
if they're sleeping its not a problem, unlike those who are awake and trying to be productive (ie-astronauts)
Before Comcast bought it out (though technically the same people and service, I had my broadband service temp. shutdown because they detected an open relay mail server on my line.

Well, it appears that DirecTV felt the same way about TV so they shut off the HU stream.
No more free tv for lots and lots.
I used to work at Edgewater Technology (remember, xmas a few years back, guy goes crazy with a few guns kills a bunch of coworkers).
Well, many of those who were murdered happened to be my supervisors.
Try explaining to a possible employer why they won't be able to call them.
i actually live off the Drum Hill area so I always take that exit. The new setup royally sux compared to the rotary which was more flowing.

These are the same system they've had available for Motorhomes for years. All they did was mount it on top of a car instead, no biggie.
