The very fact that Wikileaks published the list not in form of a text file, but as a web page with links clearly shows that the intent is to snare-in web spiders and have them snarf not only the list, but the purported pedosites.
Now what the search engines will **do** with it is left as an exercise to the reader...
But in the meanwhile, it's interesting to see how will each search engine will react (and how fast) to them having snarfed the list (and the pedosites)...
What Mr. Bejtlich does seem to understand is that the officer corps in the military exists to provide a cadre of managerial generalists.
A good officer should become reasonably proficient in the skills required for his/her current assignment, while being open to learning an entirely new skill set as required by a subsequent assignment.
LOL!
Back in World-War II, when France was starting to lose to the germans because they did not do what General De Gaulle said they should do (Tanks instead of the Maginot Line), De Gaulle was "promoted" to the supply department as far from the front lines as possible (a typical career dead-end move)...
He was then drafted by the chief of government to become... minister of defence... Talk about being a generalist!!!
Here, in Canada, it is totally free; as there is no single federal telecom monopoly and those are mostly private companies, the issue of monopoly is moot.
Hopefully, this situation will help to drive the Bell Telephone Company of Canada into the ground, which could be sooner than we think as it was not bought by the Ontario Teacher's Fund.
The forces of darkness are conspiring to bring about a new dark age for the Humanity. Those people shall never be allowed to succeed; they shall be opposed by the mot vehement means possible. If religious people are so fond of discriminating against the non-religious, we, the enlightened atheists shall have no remorse in discriminating against the religious, and making it known publicly.
It has to be understood that Vidéoétron is a part of Québécor, the Rupert Murdoch of french media in Canada.
Canada, being a banana republic with snowploughs, has no stringent media ownership requirements, as the various liberal governments are in the pockets of media, and the rarer conservative governments are pro-business, so there is not real incentive to have laws geared towards protecting the people.
Québecor owns newspapers and a TV network, and it already discriminates against non-internet customers by blocking access to some of it's content (only Vidéoétron subscribers can access TV content for free, for example).
Il should be understood that Vidéoétron is owned by Québécor, and Québécor (well, PKP) is the Rupert Murdoch of french media in Canada.
Québécor owns most of Québec music companies, most of the private TV networks and a lot of newspapers.
Back when the courts determined that file-sharing was legal and ISPs should not be compelled to ID copyright infringers, Vidéoétron was perfectly willing to turn subscribers IDs to record companies.
The "C" programming language is nothing but a glorified assembler. 40 years ago, when core and CPU was at a premium, it was perhaps a good idea to deliberately design it without bounds checking.
Now, in 2009, where we have CPU and RAM coming out the wazoo, there is no reason to keep using that jalopy, except for jock-programmers' egoes.
Yet we continue to happily compile and link code that begs for memory leaks and stack overflows. How many man-hours have been LOST to "C" bugs just because some jocks could not be caught dead programming without a safety net???
Back in 1973, Niklaus Wirth created Pascal which **has** proper bounds checking by default.
When was the last time you heard about a buffer overrun in Pascal?
Current platforms have sufficient power that can afford languages that **SYSTEMATICALLY** have bounds checking.
Those priests and lords probably would have been quite happy to falsify them by the thousands in order to get the undesirables out of the country.
No.
Why do you think the french revolution was so savage and furious against the nobility and the clergy? Because they had pretty radical means to deal with "undesirables"... Being scatholics, during the "old regime", the french never had any puritan notions of body integrity.
And don't forget that by being the largest european country, France did not need to ship-out "indesirables"; it had plenty of room to keep them under check.
Canada ***NEVER*** was a penal colony. And especially not during the french regime: every colonist had to show a certificate of morality signed by the priest and the lord in order to be allowed on the ship.
In America's Cup Yacgting they pull a crewman to the top of the mast to look out for wind gusts (or to make repairs in the rigging)
Heh. I have a friend who had built this 25m long 2 mast square-rigged sailboat (I wonder if the new owner kept the 3 functionnal cannons), and we certainly did not need any excuse to go up the rigging... At any time, half the crew was always up there...
I can see this having a purpose, i.e faster descent times and time spent examining shipwrecks etc.
Come back when you get certified for SCUBA. The rate of descent is limited by how fast you can equalize your ears (which is about 1 m/s), and the rate of ascent by how your tissues are de-gassing, which has to be slower than 30 cm/s for sport diver certification* (and that can take **WEEKS** in the case of saturation divers).
* Let's not get entangled in what constitutes "tech diving"...:)
There is nothing more subversive and abhorrent to the owning/ruling classes than this peer-to-peer network, on which nobody can know you're a dog.
That the smallest pipsqueak running Apache can pass for the largest media conglomerate, oh! the humanity!
What is needs is a strict pay-as-you-go, one way network that will feed what the big media conglomerate want to the masses, in which nothing negative (to the owning classes) can travel. A virtual Disneyland(TM) where everything (appears) nice so that the masses can be fond of the status-quo.
How nifty! They put a **HUGE** data center where the law was changed to allow unprecedented spying upon e-mail traffic, **AND** through which Russia is mostly connected to.
What are the Google connections with the CIA, again????
I had a "friend" once who had a similar button in his car that would disable his brake lights. He made a living for a few years by getting "accidentally" rear-ended.
I used to work with someone who had just the opposite... He adjusted his motorcycle front brake to turn the brakelight on before the brake actually applied, in order to shake loose those jerks who liked to tailgate him.
As of the gene pool, since he died in that egyptian plane crash the FAA attributed to pilot suicide, we'll never know...

Heck, no, they had friggin STALIN, who, with his 16 million people killed in concentration camps make Hitler looks like an amateur...

Well, DUH?, if they haven't been able to shut it down in years of raids and proceedings, why should they be able to do it in a few days trial???
The new bourgeois world order demands it.

Justice is blind, and even more so when technological cases are heard in an anglo-saxon setting, where customary law (precedents) is king.

What is strangest is that Michael Geist seems to have waited 2 years to comment on this...
Either you are hopelessly puritan, or you are not human. But I repeat myself.
Heaven forbid little boys would pull back their foreskin and rub it with a sponge. They may enjoy it.
Well, this is Thailand, after all...
That's not the problem. The problem is that some minor bureaucrat gets to decide what is insulting or not, and the definition is fuzzy at best.
Your friendly neighbourhood OCD neat-freak???
Must have been sometime back in 83-84. And I believe it was one of those cheap jap bikes.
