I wonder what the differences in lifespan effects of left handness are in countries where people drive on the left side of the road (e.g. UK) versus the right (e.g. USA, Mexico).
And if they try to sue you, try to get them prosecute for violating the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. Yeah, it could be said you authorized them to invade, but you could claim they socially engineered you to. If one were to call up somebody and a company and get them to divulge a password and use that to login, they'd still go to jail.

If you need the ability to instantly purchase a game from your computer, you need a life.
Get off the $*%#@ computer, get out in the sunshine (it won't kill you! Honest! Well, not any faster than the radiation from your 30 inch monitor and 4 GHz CPU), and walk/drive/bike/take the subway/light rail/bus/camel/horse/flying bat to the g*dd*mn PHYSICAL store and buy the d*mn software there.
Sorry, but I'm getting fed up with this overreliance on technology. Do we really want a world where computers do everything and we just sit in a dark room, jacked into the net, with an IV line for sustenance? Hello Matrix!
This wasn't a flame directed specifically at you, but rather at the whole culture.
any studies find out what the extra deaths are from?
Do lefties get more heart disease, more diabetes, more cancer, or any diseases at all, or are they just sudden unexplained deaths with no known illness preceeding it?
You are forced to get new versions of Windows (security holes, Microsoft and other vendors refusing to support or write software for old versions, needing new windows versions to run new Office versions to read files your customers/coworkers/clients sent using the new version of Office) almost all the time, and they need more memory and CPU, or else performance becomes dreadful.
So you need to upgrade just to stay in place (performance wise).
That is, unless you are lucky enough to be free of Microsoft.
Sued (civil), yes; charged (criminal) I don't think so in the US. Any lawyers care to comment? If there are such laws, is it a misdemeanor or a felony (which would be very scary - considering the implications).
Well, all I can say is, I hope you have an industrial strength webserver on that box.
Inviting a slashdotting can be risky.
If your box actually stays up through this, and I was someone looking for a sys admin, I'd likely hire you. Your site as of now, seems to be performing quite well. Thanks goodness you are running Linux, but I'd recommend upgrading Apache, 1.3.26 is a bit out of date.
Anyway, if you can survive a slashdotting, you're better than many corporate sites.
Stalking is a crime. When stalkers are caught with pictures, diaries and details of people's whereabouts and dealings, this is usually used against them in a court case. why shouldn't the same apply to Mt Patel and his kind?
Because stalkers aren't corporations trying to make a profit. Isn't the right of a corporation to make a profit somewhere in the Constitution or something?:)
Who changed Democrats to blue and Republicans to red?
I remember when it was the other way around (I know it was in 1980 - Carter v. Reagan).
It made more sense. Especially with the other meaning of "Red", and what party most "blue blooded" people would be in. Also it fits nicely with this theory.:)

Being the type of person that even owns a laptop will make conception unlikely for other reasons.

The laws are more allowing of the FBI performing unauthorized (by you) decryption of your files than they are of pretending to be you.
Getting your private key and reading your files is one thing.
Posting under your name and forging your signature is quite another.
Perhaps Homeland Security thought the PGP keyserver was a threat and had an article about it posted to Slashdot. If so, it apparently worked. :)
Now where is my tinfoil hat?
So how soon before Google offers an uncrippled version of Google Groups for a fee?
Not if you can prove that you frequently send out random, garbage, data.
Well, we know the RIAA and MPAA members should be safe then. ;)
Spammers won't sent you encrypted mail.
:)
It is way too computationally expensive.
Spam programs are designed to work extremely fast, using very little CPU to send a message.
That is why things like hashcash would work, they'd make it economically unfeasible for spammers.
Encryption takes quite a bit of work (just less than unauthorized decryption

Would you say the same thing if it was Microsoft instead of Apple?
1. You should have said: "Her problem is that she forgets to proofread."
2. It is "A lot", not "Alot".
3. "Disinterested" means one doesn't have a conflict of interest. You should have used "uninterested".
4. It is "justified", not "justificated".
5. It is "disenfranchised", not "disenfrenchfried", unless someone took away their French fries.
Interesting points.

Some of the alleged felons purged were purged for felonies allegedly committed in 2007, even though that is still in the future.
There wasn't even the simplest reality check done.

The same should apply to the spyware.
People are simply uneducated in these matters
This in itself isn't the problem
and do not care enough to become educated.
This is the problem.

Ironic, that site is run by Kevin Poulsen, a (black hat) hacker.

Sounds like you went on a fishing expedition! :)
Well if that bothers you, you'll be glad to know Google groups is useless now. :)
Everything falls under the interstate commerce powers clause of the federal government in some way or another.
