"trusted and established exchanges", you're a funny guy. The best you'll get is " > 1 month old, hasn't been hacked or down today, and is slightly less shady than others".
I love the response to it being a speculative bubble is "well if you are so sure Mr. Smarty Pants why don't you take a short position and be part of the speculative bubble" without a hint of irony. It's also pretty funny that most of these people think they are doing something new or original because the underlying object is made by computers.
I would sweat it out, but only if I could physically borrow/give the shares back to one of the people posting this garbage everywhere on the internet. Posting "haha told you so asshole" on the internet just isn't very satisfying, because they all run off and hide when the crash comes, I know because that's exactly what happened last time.
No. What would you need anonymous internet currency for....use your imagination. Bitcoin is completely supported by illegal activities and speculation.
Yes the GP has not experienced their currency wildly changing value overnight: Nothing like losing 20% of your money from the time you start browsing for something on amazon to when you hit checkout.
I'm sure those are all well regulated companies that won't shutter and take your money whenever they get hacked or it's in their best financial interest to do so.
I'm curious if it is what we would consider 3d printed. Not that it isn't cool, I just know it's popular to latch onto a new buzztech word because of the press.
Where there's an ocean of people claiming copyright infringement where it's completely false or obviously fair use? Not to mention the myriad of other ways an account holder may unknowingly having pirated material passing through his pipe. At a minimum everyone should have a problem with an ISP inspecting their traffic as long as it is not abusing their network.
Nor am I, but I know that tactic is in the states all the time. Fair or not. It's pretty effective if the police are actually interested in catching the guilty party instead of forcing a false confession. (with multiple cases and events it would be pretty easy to figure out if the confession was real or coerced)
Wouldn't it be a lot easier to get a confession by letting them know they had spent the money and proved it was (one or the other) them and then offer a deal for a plea , and a confession that matches the evidence? Maybe I am missing something. Of course they could just spend the money, it's not like 1mil is some huge sum in the scheme of things.
That ship sailed long ago.
Coincidentally, our system of 'due process' is basically one massive blackmail racket. If things operated as intended it would be an invaluable tool for the courts and the defendants to provide a win/win. In our completely perverted system charges are trumped up to the maximum (even completely fabricated) levels to force a plea.
It's well and widely known the atrocities that go on there. From reports, things that make saddams rape rooms look like candyland. Of course like the shameful stupid nations we are, we continue to further isolate and punish the people of NK via sanctions and cock waving with its leaders. They could have ended hostilities long ago by trying to catch bees with honey instead of pouring vinegar on them and watching the people of NK pay the price. Knock out the leadership once and for all or come to the table and play nice. It's so shameful that the worlds answer has been "shame on you, no bags of rice for the poor this week" in response to decades of human rights abuses.
This is the internet so common sense or even real world examples do not apply. If the real world laws were written like laws regarding data/internet you would get 35 years for drug trafficking because you told a friend an address of a house that sells drugs.
...your first "Advice On Security Policies Like This" is: "If a smartphone is a real security risk, you have a lot bigger concerns, security wise, than smartphones." (and, yes I am aware that in fringe scenarios a phone is a very real risk because of cameras and recording devices.) A policy that says "don't connect your phone to the computer/etc" is just as effective unless you are going to search employees and get the backscatter xray out.
Is going to break some intergalactic 'no fly' zone.
The council will be held and they will be shown grainy black and white pictures of our Weapons of Galactic Destruction manufacturing facilities. We're screwed.
...The jobs with the absolute most people interaction. There is a "strong perverse culture", but it's not tough guys/gals not wanting to look weak, it's wage slaves terrified they will lose some pay or their job. I have a feeling Mr. Olshansky has 'binders full of women' who will back up his claims about why people don't stay home when they are sick.
The article I read stated that conservation has a hand in it. Kind of like the wildfires getting worse because of burn laws reducing smaller fire occurrence. Honestly, I am waiting for Mayor Quimby to take over at this point.
You're right they don't use the USPS for communication, they use it to actually ship drugs. This really is no different than them wanting the phone companies to record every conversation you have....ya know, just in case.

Lawyer, Ever. If he was a criminal attorney his client, up for shoplifting charges, would end up in the electric chair.

Yes it is. This is the most blatant one yet.

If the story is true then the real story is that google had a voice when the people didn't.

Yes clearly his intentions were to signal his confidence in the company.

You know it's coming. Hit post then immediately a popup appears informing you of your eRrest warrant and eNdictment prompting you for your plea.
That is all.

#4 sure does open can of worms!
