My theory is that one day a marketer looked at a simplified 'diagram' of the internet and noticed the clip-art style cloud (as in fluffy looking thing in the sky) tagged as "the internet". So the term Cloud Computing was born.
for gaming ( server authentication, always on connections, etc ) why the hell would anyone think that storing your own personal files and data online be a good thing ?
Because we aren't all complete noobz like yourself. My backups are in the cloud and 100% secure from security breaches at the cloud provider. I could explain how, but I'm sure it would only confuse you.
There also needs to be severe legal consequences for the person who sings off on the take down order. Corporations should all be 100% immune from liability, it's the individual who does the action that must be held accountable.
If they're a VoIP customer get them to reboot their router while on phone support. The result is 5 minutes of peace until their phones start to work again.
Home users don't have firewalls now, we can't assume that's going to change with IPv6.
Worst offenders for disabling firewalls seem to be gamers. Then there people still running XP without any service packs, the Outlook Express types who know nothing but manage to just get by.
I normally always use my outlook client instead of the web interface. No matter how nice a webmail UI can be made, they still don't match their client counterparts.
In England you can be arrested for "going equipped". For example if you have a crowbar, pliers and other tools in your car they will claim that you are going equipped to commit burglary, you don't actually need to do the crime.
I suspect you're joking, but that isn't a bad idea.
I've carried two wallets before in countries where the cops take bribes. One wallet for using and if the cops need a bribe, that's all I have. Second wallet used for storing the bulk of the cash.

The Australian Federal Government intervene when people post offensive content on Facebook.
Google "Aboriginal Memes" and you'll find plenty of talk about it.
Says the person posting as AC.
All copyright terms are defensible. If you don't like somebody's draconian terms, simply find something else to download.
I do.
It's called a Torrent.
If you move your stuff to, say, Google's cloud...
That alone should be enough to get you fired.

I back everything up to the "cloud" and use my own local backups. It's the only way to be safe.
Dorey only gets away with it because no one has filed any legal action against her.
Perjury is making a false or misleading statement while under oath,
Which is exactly what makes them criminals.

Also Chome doesn't advertise it's version numbers. I just noticed mine's now at version 21, it was 19 when I last checked.
Mozilla makes a big song and dance with every "major" release.
of course. Unless you want to hold two phones to your ear at the same time.

The real power of IPv6 is that it allows us to eliminate NAT.
Which is a bad idea for home users.
I signed up for Hotmail when this was their logo: http://s3.danscomp.net/hotmail_logo.gif

My webmail has no ads: http://s3.danscomp.net/office-12.jpg unless you count the spam in my junk folder.

I always have a Leatherman Wave with me at all times.
Except if I'm going out "clubbing" then it stays at home, but I have certainly had it with me at the pub after work on more than one occasion.
So what if you leave all the tools in your car.
I carry a set of pliers on my belt (leatherman).
A future where people have the Frrdom of Speech, yes.

Because Mars IS more interesting than some boneheads chasing each other around a dirt track. Humanity needs to move on.
