As long as the government continues to look the other way when the wealthy commit crimes (a readily provable truth) it would be unethical for someone with the ability to do so to not refer the matter to the public.
So you are good with anyone deciding that some person has comitted a crime and deserves to have private information leaked?
Again, as long as governments operate this way (another demonstrable truth) playing by the same rules is more than reasonable.
So, since "government" leaks private information, then anyone can leak private information, even if the subjects are not in the government? Ever here what two wrongs add up to?
Just recently a Swiss Bank employee gave to Wikileaks information related to a few thousand or so customers who have "secret accounts".
So now we've gone from government secrets to the private information of individuals. This is the Slippery slope in action. Sure...some will say these are tax cheats and deserve it, but the person who leaked this has no idea if these people actually cheated on their taxes.
Next, it will be private information of people who are of some political persuasion the leaker happens to dislike.
In 1995 Nasa published a document describing a plethora of mishaps and anomalies related to EMI. These spanned from Saturn 5 rockets to anti-lock braking systems in cars. Some were annoyances, others got people killed. Some were caused by small devices such as phones and others required degraded shielding in combination with military radars.
It seems to describe an overall "you never know" situation.
White lists, I think it is an even "better better" when it comes to small children. The sites you want them on are far fewer and it's easier to say where you want to be able to go than where you don't want them to go.
But I never had any luck finding an application that facilitates creating and implementing a white list.
The crank on the front of my car is simple. Just energize the ignition and crank away. Why bother with the complications of batteries, starter motors, etc?

Sometimes the AC is spot on.

I had to sit next to idiots like this in high school AND college.
Umm...I have a set of these in my tool box. They came standard with one of those Sears tool kits.

What can the environmental community possibly find wrong with this?
I was wondering that myself.
How many engineers does Apple have working on OS X? Or Google on Android?
I don't see 500 engineers worth of results on FaceBook.
Science should STFU about religion and Religion should STFU about Science.
You forgot Ignorance, unless you include that in Biological Bias.
All scientific statements that pretend to proclaim the "truth" should be prefixed by "Based on what we now know".
Because:
a) We don't know everything and sure as hell don't fully understand even that which we "know".
b) We will know more and/or different in the future.
"Friends" are not links on a web page.
...but is it anything like that Cheerleader tossing game on the web?

I would bet no fish (yeah...mammal, I know) wants to see the inside of a Pird of Prey.

consider other more pragmatic disciplines
So you are saying if you want to actually produce something, bring value to society, support yourself and others, don't go for Computer Science.

....why am I paying $20,000 a year (on the low end) for my kid to go to school and study Computer Science just to have a freakin sophomore teach him?
Major WTF?
Yes...Facebook, Twitter and whatever the next time wasting, privacy invading social site is next need just die.
"Legal Immigration made this country great, but there's too much Illegal immigration now."
ok, now it's fixed.
"Legal Immigration made this country great, but there's too much of it now."
There, fixed it
In a modern society, guns are generally not needed.
Yes, but in a free society, they are generally needed.
U.S. citizens are not going down to the local Cabella's and buying fully automatic weapons.
Let's see...you are a Mexican drug King Pin with millions of dollars at your disposal. To acquire arms you:
a) Recruit thousands of U.S. citizens to buy semi-automatic weapons, smuggle them to Mexico and then convert them to fully automatic.
b) Buy them on the international weapons market.
If you choose A then you ARE the racist because you are saying the Mexicans are fucking stupid.
Today's nerd girls are cuter and have bigger tits than when I was in college.
I believe that Hansen's is the ONLY one of the 3 or 4 tracking studies that shows this.
His Tin Foil Hat is interferring with his reason.
