Also, an important addition was made in 1973 in the form of a broad power to conduct wiretap investigations pursuant to executive, as opposed to judicial, authorizations.
Comcast agreed to provide internet access to their users for a monthly fee, which technically means that comcast will forward traffic from their users towards the rest of the internet and vica versa.
Unless their contract with their users, into which their users enter voluntarily, says differently. Or are you only in favor of people's rights when they're rights you wish to exercise?
The first amendment doesn't apply to people who operate big networks because the first amendment only specifies rights that the government can't take away. The people who operate the big networks also own said networks, and can dictate what they can and can't be used for with impunity.
Yes. The constitution has no application to anyone who is not the government.
The judge who would be asked to issue that injunction is in the government, as is the County Sheriff or Federal Marshal who would be asked to enforce it, depending on whether you filed state or federal.
BTW, your statement is not ENTIRELY true. The courts have on occasion held that a private group was sufficiently tied into the ability to exercise Constitutionally-protected rights that they were bound in part by them. For instance, political parties can't discriminate in ways that other private groups can, because they partially control access to the right to vote. However, as a general rule of thumb, you're correct.
Which, depending on the size and importance of your network, sets you up for a lawsuit. Assuming a free and unfettered internet, if you block an entire ISP from your network for what amounts to zero illegal activity, I would put it out there that a lawsuit would result in a court order to unblock said ISP.
Could you point out the case citation that holds that the First Amendment guarantee of Freedom of Assembly doesn't apply to people who operate big networks?
There's no law that says builders have to bend over backwards so firemen, cops, and people dying of strokes can use their radio transmitters effectively.
You have to bend over backwards to avoid installing nanotech-based jamming paint? WTF kind of building codes do they have where you are?
How about this? You have a stroke in the bathroom, and try to call for help.
If you are lucky enough to get help, the person helping you tries to call an ambulance, and can't because some oversensitive retard bought cellphone-block paint.
You are whining about a boo-boo you got from trying to kick someone? Grow some balls.
I can see why a dork like you would be unable to comprehend a sports injury, but I figured you'd agree with my main point since I'm sure your DDR keypad is worn from constant use.
It's a freaking bash configuration file. Every user has one in their "home directory". If they are deviating this far from standard UNIX practices... then... I don't even have anything to say.
You ssh to your account, your.bash_profile loads, you do your work, then you log out. I can't imagine how anyone could not be doing it like this.
In many large production environments, especially in systems that fall under SOX 404 restrictions, people don't have write access to their home directories. Often they have shared home directories.
Foot injuries are more common than hand injuries. I'm talking about short-term injuries.
I have a possibly-broken toe right now; if it impaired my ability to work, I'd be even more pissed off at that Brazilian kid who bungled the right downward block than I already am.
Not to mention the fact that I can work in substantially the same way sitting in my recliner at home with my feet up as I can sitting in my crappy desk chair at work; I don't have to learn a completely different set of muscle movements for working in each location.
Wha I am certain of is this: when I'm in charge, we'll have none of this 'multiple language' crap. Everyone will speak Esperanto, or else.
One hopes that you appreciate the irony of complaining that the Chinese make a move guaranteed to decrease communication, then end with the above statement. Written in English.
So let me get this straight. His "crime" was the fact he alert people to the fact that the local elections were flawed due to the use of uncertified equipment?
Nope. His crime was that he obtained unauthorized access to work-product documents of attorneys.
Would you want every communication between you and your attorney made public? How about communication between your attorney and his colleagues regarding your case?
The big "Palm Beach voting debacle" was that Pat Robertson got 3000 votes and there weren't 3000 members of the Reform Party.
What never gets mentioned is that Pat Robertson lives in Palm Beach County and had 1,000 people show up at a paid campaign dinner there not long before the election.
This is about like complaining that George Bush got more votes in Crawford, Texas, than there are Republicans there.
What about server hardware sold without an operating system?
It's counted. They're using a combination of methods, remember, and that includes asking those surveyed "how many servers did you buy without an operating system, and what operating system did you put on them?"

Next they'll accuse them of having a monopoly on European government.
That bloody evil Patriot Act seems to automatically give them extra-territoriality over everything in the friggin' world.
Yeah, if it just authorized warrantless wiretaps it'd be in line with Canadian law since 1973.
Yes. Now prove that both are the case here.

The reason it's illegal is because it also blocks police and fire department radios and the cell phones of people dying of strokes in the bathroom.

Why doesn't someone tell me why Dell screws my company out of hundreds of thousands of dollars each year selling them overpriced server equipment?
Probably has something to do with those purchase orders your company keeps sending them.

Most "internet servers" aren't server hardware purchased in 2005.
Or did you think the entire Internet replaces itself every year, or that Netcraft magically discards results from any server older than 366 days old?

Damn that secretive Bush administration for starting this program 2 years before they took office!
