Clever answer, but if that's the logic behind it, why the question says "part I know"? Shouldn't it be "parts I have"? Looks like it comes to a bad choice of words as the reason behind most of the confusion here.
You missed the main point - Mosley's father was a major Nazi supporter during the WW2, and even had Hitler and Goebbels as guests at his wedding. If there were not for his father's deeds, Max would have been far more likely to get away with this Nazi Sex orgy he participated in.
I would think though this could nearly eliminate unwanted pregnancy. Everyone can be on birth control and enter into a legal binding contract when they want to order a child.
If only there were not for radical feminists who will still continue babbling about how they want "full control of their bodies" and insist on saying that artificial wombs are created by evil men whos only desire is to make women obsolote.
So, when Anonymous hacked Vatican's site, they were against religion, but now they say they are not? I guess they need to take a more cautious approach when they know tomorrow could be thousands of angry people on the street screaming for their beheading.
"[P]rostitution, adultery, necrophilia, bestiality, possession of child pornography, and even incest and pedophilia... should be legal as long as no one is coerced. They are illegal only because of prejudice and narrowmindedness."
What about cannibalism? Is it truly any worse than anything of the above? Once I'm dead, I certainly couldn't care less whether my body gets eaten by worms or other humans. That makes cannibalism a victimless crime, also.
Apologies for being a troll (since at least one person on slashdot with mod rights thinks "troll" is a synonim to "wrong").
Please don't forget to mod this post as troll too!
HOSTS file exists only on Windows machines, so if you're on Mac or Linux, you're better using the addon.
Besides, I don't have to know piratebay's IP address to use an addon.
Still doesn't beat the case when Intel sued some guy who had the word "inside" in his website's address, despite the website having nothing to do with CPUs or even computers (I'm too lazy to Google more details).
Monocles in EVE are the least problematic, since by wearing them you don't gain any sort of advantage over players who don't have them, nor they add actual content to the game. They, much like Rolex watches, exist only for the rich and the stupid. If CCP sticked to their original plan to sell ships (who are supposed to be player-manufactured in EVE) and other gameplay-relevant items, now that would be a problem.
Okay, okay, I was wrong. I am not from UK or Ireland so I don't know all the pedantic details. I obviuosly shouldn't referred to the part of Isle of Ireland which belongs to UK as Ulster.
Why it's been said that opportunity makes the thief? If I could steal large amount of money and get away with it, I would probably do it, knowing it will solve all my financial problems for a while, if not for the rest of my life. Does that make me immoral person? Even if you think so, I could also make another example by mentioning that I don't smoke marijuana only because I don't want to end up in jail for such a trivial "crime". Does that make me immoral person? It's not like I would kill or rape someone just because I want to know how it feels.

I guess that "killer app" just got a new meaning.
Hey, I think I've seen this story on /. before:

Dunno if an average geek would agree, but I think that place belongs to Carl Sagan. Science isn't supposed to be popular.
I can see this ending up with the same fate as Diaspora, and for the same reason.
I believe that other servers were taken down by CCP as a precaution measure.

I can already imagine gay rights groups demanding that all gay couples should have right to a womb, just like they should have right to marry.
First time I've heard of Syrian Game developers...guess it's also going to be the last.
Looks like Facebook is a serious business...folks, time to update your memes.

Finally, a religion that nobody on Slashdot will bash.

Far more likely it was named passwords.txt
And those "before iPad" tablets were obviously superior, having functionality put before design.

Ireland is Ireland, no matter how they partition it.
Yes, geographically. But laws are different in Ulster than in Ireland, which I think is more relevant to this article than geography.

That's only one comment. Most other commenters say this punishment was appropriate, so why are you so pissed off??
Belfast is in Northern Ireland, which is part of UK, not part of Republic of Ireland.
