I don't understand how it can even be practical to restore 100's of GB from DVDs, unless you have an automated DVD-changer it would take you several hours of manual labour!
That analogy only makes sense whilst the rats are actively attacking your cellar. If the rats have finished attacking your cellar, what benefit to your cellar is it to chase after them and kill them? Even if you do kill those rats, other rats are likely to find their way into your cellar and attack it.
These restrictions should not be a surprise to anyone who hasn't been living under a rock. It is exactly the same type of restrictions that Apple applies to all their products; be it iPod, iPhone, OSX or whatever else you can think of.
Apple controls the products and they control the distribution channels (iTunes, App Store, etc). Most people who buy iPhones are slaves to the App store, just as most people who buy iPods are slaves to iTunes, and most people who buy OSX are slaves to buying Apple Hardware.
You hear a lot of fuss about nuclear waste, but reality is that beyond the first few hundred years or so it is only moderately more toxic than many other things we handle daily
I think a fair number of people would disagree with you there.
Appropriate to the parents' beliefs and the situation of the child, of course.
Slightly OT, but current governments seem to be progressively removing the parents from the equation, vis-Ã-vis recent stories from UK, Australia and elsewhere about Internet Filters.
From memory the terms state that the uploader has the rights to begin with.
So if you are uploading other peoples photos then you would be violating their terms - and thus the uploader may be caught with the blame in such a hypothetical lawsuit.
Agencies have not been able to post videos to YouTube (although many already have)

There is a reason why Nakamichi players still sell for hundreds of dollars on ebay.
Must be the same people that spend thousands on Bang & Olufsen speakers.
if you type Jackson into Google, you can break The Internet.

Considering that you said "mostly pictures" it would be worth considering a professional image hosting service such as Smugmug.
Unlimited storage from US$40 per year is less than half of what you would be paying for 50GB on Dropbox.
You miss the point.
The Javascript obfuscation method allows you to make a mailto: url that was accessible to users yet difficult for spammers.
Sticking your email in an image is probably worse then simply asking users to solve a captcha before giving them your email.
Kudos for finding that link. TFA reads like a worthless press release.
If you put linux into the search box in Bing (without pressing anything), it suggests things like "microsoft linux", "linux vista".
Oh my what... crazy but true.
It works both ways though, if you put microsoft or vista into the search box it suggests things like "microsoft linux", "vista linux"
Get some open source software that is good at indexing data and create a searchable knowledge base from the information above.
A Wiki?

You can choose which versions of IE it installs (I only test in IE6). Perhaps IE7 will be included in the pack in the near future.

Privatisation is no secret, infact it's part of the plan:
Once the project has been up and running for five years, the Government will begin selling its stake

Firstly, Privacy > Cookies > Accept Cookies from Sites - Untick

Slumdog Millionaire was had to find in a Cinema until it won Golden Globe. Now it has multiple sessions per day to sellout audiences.
