Of course the US routinely penetrates Chinese systems in order to steal military secrets... and in response we have developed an absolutely airtight national defence against the Mig-19 and all its variants.
For starters, hurricanes play a role in climate regulation, and that role is the transport of heat away from equatorial regions and into the extratropical zone. It is theorized that if humans break that mechanism by preventing hurricane formation, we will end up with fewer storms, but those that do form will be incredibly devastating as they feed off the "surplus" latent oceanic heat.
Well that depends whether the OP wants to perform something like a fulltext search (i.e. the ability to look for keywords within the content of each document) or a metadata search.
There's nothing to prevent you setting up a CMS where each piece of content is encrypted, but the metadata describing that content is out in the clear and searchable. Security in such a scenario would be less than optimal (e.g. people could guess certain things about your content based on the statistical pattern of length for each of the millions of encrypted content items), and of course you'd have to be very careful about the metadata fields and how you are populating them.
I'm sure the eggheads at NASA started out with the best of intentions where this poll is concerned. Then Steve Colbert came along and hijacked the process (and I'm not pointing fingers, it's Colbert's job to fuck with things and he did an admirable job of it) and the eggheads were left to figure out some other way forward. That's the reality of the situation. The psychologically-healthy way of dealing with that reality is to shrug your shoulders, silently congratulate Steve Colbert on a job well done, and move on. Taking it personally and deciding that NASA has delivered a "slap in the face" is the route to misery.
Also consider - how many times are you actually going to hear the name of that module over the next 10 years? Maybe during the week when they launch and assemble it. After that, will we be reading items about a new crew blasting off to visit the Harmony module, or Serenity, or Colbert? Here's a challenge for you: without looking anything up on the web, name 2 others modules currently comprising the ISS.
I guess - if an online naming poll is really that big a deal - that this qualifies as a major slap in the face. My personal reaction runs more along the lines of "who the hell cares?"
Are there classes at the Learning Annex that I can take where I can learn to become cold and insensitive, while at the same time becoming an expert in everybody else's life so that I can tell them how to manage their affairs?
I'm going to hire him to design my toddler's business card. Sure, we'll have to make a few assumptions about what he can do, guaranteed, once he's 27 years old, but it's important to think ahead. Factoring in inflation, I'm willing to go as high as $11.50 per card, but at that price point I expect the whole deal - embossing, die cutting, foil stamping, and pop up action figures.
Now that would be one badass April Fool's prank: hack into Ameritrade or eTrade, and change the interface so all transactions must be denominated in roman numerals.
I'm okay with this worm stealing data so long as it put a little more effort into it: you know, it could introduce itself as Prince Leta Matobo living in exile in Ghana, spend some time building up a rapport, and then start making suggestions about making billions of dollars using 100% guaranteed modalities.

You've never walked barefoot on concrete? Feels good man, especially on hot days.
Though to be completely honest, the hobo vomit is somewhat less of a tactile treat.
What are you, some kind of cdesign proponentsist?
You are assuming that from a customer perspective, a single vendor experience is superior to a multi vendor experience.
4. What are the unintended consequences?

Of the various words I've heard used to describe the current job situation, "choice" isn't typically one of them
How open is your current cable feed?

But what about my god-given right to massive unmetered bandwidth without having to pay for it?

Depends on the institution. In fact at least one card I can think of was delivered - via regular postal mail - with a default PIN set to 1234.

Yes, but does Lem say anything about micro-clouds or micro-shadows?
Many of the examples you give are not culturally neutral. One person's pet is another person's tasty treat. Ditto for Natalie Portman.

Exactly. It's generally about confusion over things like how our oil got under their sand.
impose default caps on sent emails per account, IP, whatever, until the sender has been established as a legit sender of mass mails.
What does this have to do with the subject of website captchas?

WoWoW
No manual entry for pussy
I think I see the problem here - try starting her off with 3 or 4 vodka appletinis.
No way this is for real

Come on, how could anybody not answer yes to that one.

This automated stealing of data is just bullshit.
