This really is pretty outrageous; if you've seen the advance publicity for the NIN app, you'd probably agree that it was looking impressive as hell.
One might be inclined to believe it's the beginning of another downward spiral on Apple's part in terms of commitment to recognizing the actual wishes of their customers...
This is a discussion board, and my original post includes the word "essentially." This is meant to cue the reader in that the view expressed is a boiled-down version of the excessively verbose published guidelines on the topic.
Very few actual lawyers are running around/., and you're still playing semantic games.
No, reporters care about special interest groups not being able to squash stories with little public backlash due to long acceptance of some kind of "community review" program.
You approved it, but the men in dark suits zapped your memory of that event, leaving you to grasp in the dark as to the true meaning behind this editorial. It will get worse.
Given the fact that most news is about people, it tends to focus on those who suffer and those who are in a position to make changes but don't really care.
You don't install anything on these systems, as they're either netbooted or pre-imaged. As for informing the authorities, that usually goes out over the ethernet adapter. For those who think unplugging the network cable will get around this, the switch can notify the proper personnel if it loses connectivity with your NIC or an unauthorized device is plugged into that port. The latter typically results in the port being blocked completely until an investigation has been done. Serious facilities use serious security measures.
For God's sake, why can't people understand the fact that "ever supported a camera" means "came with an actual camera installed from the factory?" Are people really this lacking in common sense, or do they think they're being clever by playing semantic games?
Your XP workstation having USB ports is okay (for the time being, at least). Bringing anything that actually take a photo (whether it plugs into a USB port or not) into your installation would likely get you fired at best, and land you in jail at worst. Get it straight.
There are specific guidelines in place at federal installations that cover this sort of approach. They essentially read "if the device has ever had the capacity to support a camera, it is expressly forbidden in secure locations."
That approach works okay until you try to outwit Marine Corps guards stationed between upper and lower base on an installation that holds nuclear submarines. Yeah, you might get away with it once (or even twice), but the consequences of getting caught are rather unpleasant.
I recently served in the submarine force (USS Nebraska), and your statement regarding cameras at these installations is absolutely correct. It's a pain in the ass, but understandable.
I suspect that the ambient temperature in the Alps would have a significant negative effect on the size of "that certain part of a guy's anatomy," regardless of national origin;).
Developing and maintaining the security infrastructure (read: controlling people and the key issuance and management processes) is what costs tons of money with systems like this; the underlying technology is fairly simple.

I find it disturbing that people could become become acclimated enough to Vista's horrendous interface that XP is somehow confusing.

Sup dawg, I heard you like moderation, so I suggest a moderation to go with your moderation.

I thought it was all Fair and Balanced(TM)...

I don't feel like waiting ten years for the results of my calculations, so your ten-year-old beige box won't really work for me.

If you're on active duty in the military, the results can pretty well be summed up as "hey, you're fucked."

More like the bot has met the shotgun pellets.
Sup dawg, I heard you like toast, so I put a toast in your toaster so you can toast while you toast.
Then, there is poker... The house takes a cut of pot.
Hmm... sounds a lot like brokers charging transaction fees. Whether you win or lose in the market, they get paid.

There was an even earlier proposal for Breakthrough Realtime On-demand Key Engagement Network.
I see your crypto key is as big as mine.

It's referred to as dissociative identity disorder these days.
BTW, in reference to my earlier reply, I am a "properly trained in the subduing of armed assailants" sort of individual.
