The court order simply says google must hand over the logs, but they forget to say in what format:
9 Terabytes of data as:
9,437,184 amiga-DOS 1.1 formatted floppy discs....
or 9,895,604,649,984 single byte/8-bit punch cards!
or 989,560,464,998,400 small pebbles each scratched with a 1 or a 0 and a packet-ID number....self assembly binary into hex into logs...........
I'd LOVE to see the viacom exec's face as several hundred trucks pull up to the viacom HQ and start disgorging floppy discs and punch cards (or several hundred tons of gravel) all over the parking lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes I've had my fair share of annoying callers who just won't take NO for an answer...so I came up with the following:
If the caller is trying to sell you a loan/mortgage, inform him that you have terminal cancer and only 6months to live...then ask "what's the biggest loan you think I can get?"....
If the caller is trying to recruit you at your workplace, tell them that your boss lets you do him/her up the ass as a monthly bonus...would the new job have similiar perks?
Speak in a fake foreign language as though you don't understand the caller...but "accidentally" insert sexual comments and swearwords every now and again...vi mon sa capablo large tits non dre vora moist lips te? etc...hehehe
pretend to be a sex chat line and inform the caller they are being billed at $10 for the first minute and $5 for each additional....then get really creative!....welcome to the hot, fat % sweaty deformity line....etc
try to talk the caller into joining your religion....have you ever thought about letting satan into your life?
ask them to guess what your doing with your other hand...and if they think you'll get fired if you get caught!
or as a final note..make up something really silly....tell them its against your religion to use the phone..leaving them to either say a) but you're lying and using the phone now (missing a sale) or b) hang up
