What if you bought a map and it intentionally omitted certain locations or distorted distances as part of some sort of agenda? Like a "map" a "search engine" should not be biased, though it would be OK if Baidu described its funciton as "Maosearch" or something
This ruling is giving Constitutional protection to the Chinese government to defraud US users. Baidu claims to have the "mission of providing the best way for people to find what they're looking for online" which is blatant false advertising.
Lots of stuff is overpriced, Walmart certainly gets away with selling trash for much more than it's worth. Can the courts tell retailers to set prices closer to their near-zero Chinese production cost? But no one is forced to buy from Walmart, just like Walmart could drop VISA or only accept cash (and EBT). Or, since cryptocurrency is so efficient, it could only accept Bitcoin (applicants for the EBT benefit would be given a Obamarig to mine).
Suing the government is always kind of joke since the government pays for its lawyers, damages, and settlements by forcing the aggrieved party and other innocent taxpayers to pay
I think most hunters eat what they kill. Few need to though, which is why it's more of a "sport" similar to how it's called "gardening" not "farming". Is spending the weekend hiking in the woods using some skills to get meat really more sadistic than sitting on the couch watching TV and eating the wings of a dozen factory farmed birds?
You're talking like there is a bear holocaust, but if the number of kills is restricted, it is irrelevant how easy they are. Less efficient methods can introduce more struggle and pain for the animal
Some of these rich guys are true misers, they are so stingy they don't want to give their fortune over to their children, so narcissistic that the knowledge that their fortune will be destroyed makes them feel even wealthier. It's a psychological disease, not something to be admired or justified
These things aren't always that easy to put in words
Anything that exists can be precisely described and quantified. But you don't care about that, because you like to see yourself as a grunting silverback charging through the undergrowth to rescue a vagina from the "sex-obsessed baboons"
Which brings up the issue of how do you "change" a Scotsman into, let's say, a Chinaman, like they demand that men become something else, namely women? Only solution is some sort of bioengineering or of course a "final solution".
If you live in a deprived state healthcare doesn't offer much, at best will extend a miserable old age. The upper middle class on the other hand are obsessed with health and aging, have teams of doctors examining the slightest problem. They are also part of or peers to the government and medical elites and are in general partial to causes that will give their comfortable lives meaning and assuage their guilt. The saying is better revised "Free lunch: IT'S A TRAP!"
Audit who? They have no legal residence, no bank accounts, they fear the IRS as much as my cat does (and I don't have a cat). If they are filing returns it's because the EITC is buying them a house in Guatemala
Isn't there are trend that performance is heading down, tests being made easier, etc.? Then it wouldn't be surprising that performance of the more capable students declined at a faster rate until it hit the median, which itself will decline until everyone can barely read numbers, and students are taught to calculate by stomping their feet
The government purchasing process is so corrupt and wasteful that projects can only involve minimal work and massive profits. To actually get something of value done would require a stupendous level of funding, would make more sense to start fresh building a transportation network on Mars
Removing regulations against evil is more like establishing regulations to protect it. So you have regulations limiting protests at clinics, regulations requiring taxpayers to pay for abortions. Ideally you'd have regulations requiring abortions, but that would sort of conflict with regulations sanctioning gay marriage.
A woman wearing a skirt is not an invitation to take a photo up the skirt any more than a man wearing shorts is an invitation to take a photo up the shorts leg.
There is never an invitation, and if you were photographing women's legs there would still be an effort to bring trumped up charges. Especially if the recordings were secret...maybe even made with Google Glass! Female sexual hysteria overrides everything, and indeed no one questions taking pictures up men's shorts (granted, in the seated position) to use as evidence for their arrest on exposure charges or for vigilante internet campaigns.
Pretty hard to stick your head between a woman's legs without touching her unless you've been miniaturized by headhunters. Seems that you think it should be illegal to walk up the stairs behind a woman?
"Inside" glosses over the fact that what was photographed was not enclosed. Or do you claim that it should be illegal to photograph someone's face if they are wearing a hoodie? Sometimes people put up the hood because they want their face to be less visible, and shouldn't that be respected?
Will be interesting if they also prohibit pictures of women in tight pants and low tops. I believe France has a law regulating how men are allowed to look at women

Must have been ranked before the new press regulations were enacted; if it's an honest barometer the UK should fall to the bottom 10% for 2014

If you RTFA, he's a true believer who supports big government, high taxes, and mass surveillance
FREEDOM IS SLAVERY. Thanks, I feel better now

Does Venezuela measure up to other countries in those fields, or did you just lower the standard?

No this is what the "skort" is for, which AFAIK was not invented by the Democratic Party
Except the potential of 2-5 years will make you take a plea deal 100% of the time, unless you are dumb/crazy
It's a progressive state, so more government regulation is always better.
