Why are you having children if you know they'll end up in a damaged planet and unstable political world? Children that are never born don't have a destructive effect on their environment, and their environment doesn't have a destructive effect on them. It's win-win!
The more powerful you are, the more your public mistakes mean. Us rank and filers might occasionally lose a job, but ultimately the loss of privacy will mean that the President of the US can finally be held accountable for his actions, along with every other elected official, corporate officer, police officer, military officer, and so on.
It really is enough to make me think this is a good idea. Not much is needed to justify VHEMT. When the world population is increasing exponentially, it's bullshit to ban incandescent bulbs and think you're doing The Right Thing. If you don't breed, you can eat all the meat you want and burn all the gas you want and probably still have a smaller ecological footprint than a vegan with children (because the children will probably breed, and so will their children).
Having children in this day and age is nothing to be proud of.
The thought that someone considers blocking dynamic ranges a good rule of thumb absolutely baffles me. Alas, even Hotmail seems to be doing this these days, so I've pretty much given up on e-mail.
Using my ISP's mail server is not really an option, since it will only relay for hosts within their address range, which is really nice in a world of laptops where you're in a different network almost daily. If only they used proper authentication and some kind of encryption (like _my_ _blocked_ server is set up for), the world would be a better place, for me at least.

What if the lawyers who filed the counterclaim did indeed settle for megabucks, and used said megabucks to sue again?
The problem is not that there are people who do not have to work to live. The problem is that there are people that do have to work to live.
Ideally, none.
