So then why is 99% of the #GamerGate hashtag feed complaining and harassing women? Why is this Ubisoft story not even mentioned once by the GamerGater crowd despite the story being more than 6 hours old?
If that's true, where is the outrage amongst the GamerGate crowd? The BBC article was last updated nearly 6 hours ago so there would be plenty of time for it to be the talk of the Gamer Gate crowd and yet none of them seem to even care. As the person above me points out if you watch Twitter for #GamerGate it's not even mentioned once.
No, it doesn't sound like that if you actually read their post.
With Gmail, I can instruct users to flag my emails as "not spam" because the emails actually go through, but simply end up in the spam folder.
Yahoo and Hotmail on the other hand, just flat out reject the traffic at lower level. They send rejection notices back to my server that contain "tips" on how to make sure I'm not an open relay, causing spam, etc.
Trademarks are usually valid within a specific field of use.
Yes, and the mark's specified goods and services don't overlap with this PoS system.
But the more famous the mark becomes, the broader the judge will construe exclusivity.
GNOME isn't that famous.
For example, something like "COCA-COLA" is so famous that Coke's lawyers will have no trouble making a prima facie case for dilution if the mark is used for any other product.
Mozilla had to rename Firebird to Firefox even though database software and web browser software aren't exactly the same field.
But the actual registered goods and services for the mark could have overlapped.
But whether the "GNOME" mark applies to useful computer software in general or to GUI frameworks in particular is for a judge to decide after the GNOME project's counsel presents its case.
This isn't a GUI framework. It's a tablet PoS system. It does not fall under any of GNOME's registered goods and services.
How would this be infringement? GNOME's trademark lists only the following goods and services:
Downloadable computer software tools and libraries used for the development of other software applications; downloadable computer software development tools; downloadable computer software for creating and managing a computer desktop; downloadable computer software for use as a graphical user interface; downloadable computer software for word processing, database management, and use as a spreadsheet
None of which this tablet system falls under other since this isn't "downloadable computer software". And:
Computer software development; computer software design; computer programming for others; technical consulting services in the field of computer software; licensing of intellectual property
Nor this.
I know this will not be popular of me to say, but this looks like IP trolling.
WoW is not the last game that was not released on a console if that's what you are referring to "PC only". And since every game since 2000 was also released on OS X it also does not qualify for the meaning of "PC only" as meaning "Windows only".
And they're a member of CurrentC who wants your bank account info, driver's license and SSN numbers. Who in their right mind would give the MCX or its members companies such info?
So you're definitely trolling. I really doubt you'll be saying the same thing once your job is lost due to lost business.
Those who are were going to do it eventually anyway...
[citation needed] Companies like Cisco have directly attributed lost business to the revelations of the NSA spying. There is no reason to believe such business loss would have happened otherwise.
If it lets you spy on the iranians... or you know, cause their centrifuges to spin themselves apart. I don't want my intelligence agencies to release that vulnerability until they've spun those fuckers down.
You do realize that your statement here completely misses their point, right? How naive are you that you think only the NSA knows about these vulnerabilities? You really think criminals and other countries like China don't also know them and aren't using them against corporations and individuals in the US?
It's really not in the NSA's job description to be exposing vulnerabilities in public systems so much as exploiting them. We don't have an agency whose job description touches cyber security.
Hahahaha. That's so wrong it's hilarious. A central tent of the NSA's mission is to protect the security of the networks in this country.

Correction: an indie developer having sex with people potentially involved with the review of her games
But the person never reviewed her games. So why is this even still being brought up?
Yes, a journalist who never reviewed any of her games and only mentioned here a couple of times in some articles that weren't game reviews.
If that's true, where is the outrage amongst the GamerGate crowd? The BBC article was last updated nearly 6 hours ago so there would be plenty of time for it to be the talk of the Gamer Gate crowd and yet none of them seem to even care.

Reading comprehension FTW.

Wrong. are numerous registered marks that are "COCA-COLA" that are not from the Coca-Cola company.
Mozilla had to rename Firebird to Firefox even though database software and web browser software aren't exactly the same field.

Unless they are developing on the target tablet then it is...
No one is going to be doing that and even if they were that would be a humongous stretch as their mark is clearly for desktop computers not tablets.
It seems that there is a clear-cut case for GNOME, that should guarantee victory.
In what way is it "clear-cut"? Their trademark registration does not involve goods and services that involve either tablets or PoS systems.

A Mac is a PC and Overwatch will be released for OS X just like basically every other Blizzard game.
Starcraft II.
And they're a member of CurrentC who wants your bank account info, driver's license and SSN numbers. Who in their right mind would give the MCX or its members companies such info?
Agreed. How dare they punish this job creator!!
that's the way the cookie crumbles.

[citation needed] Companies like Cisco have directly attributed lost business to the revelations of the NSA spying. There is no reason to believe such business loss would have happened otherwise.
Doubtful.
Then you've not been reading the news. This isn't even particularly new news.
i'm more worried about google knowing everything about me... or facebook. something inherently dirtier about having my information sold for profit...
Why would you worry about it? Google shares all that info with the NSA who you seem to love constantly surveilling your whole life.
If it lets you spy on the iranians... or you know, cause their centrifuges to spin themselves apart. I don't want my intelligence agencies to release that vulnerability until they've spun those fuckers down.

so pay to relocate.
People are and it's going to cost our economy big time.
Don't tar everyone with the brush of extremism.
How dare you point out his hypocrisy!
So what were you trying to show by that link?
Chrisq is a hypocrite. Just like him, you're also a shitty mind reader.
No, I didn't think that at all. You're a shitty mind reader. It was merely posted to rile people like you up.
So are you saying that because some non-Muslims react violently against people they disagree with then that means that Muslims don't do it?
No, I've said no such thing.
Yep.
As do civil liberties, privacy, and encryption.
