  1. I think converting the bankruptcy to a Chapter 7 was the legal punch in the face these guys deserved. You can get away with extortion? Guess what we can get away with? Pay up buddy. I'd force them to send apology letters as well.

  2. I think JudgeÂHarry Pregerson already did the killing.

  3. Google pinky swears that it will only use the data for improving its services. As long as that's the case we can all rest assured.

    That's a lot like saying, "Some people don't like freedom." No, they do. If nobody is on T.V. about it, that just tells you something about T.V. not public opinion. It's obvious to even a rabbit that privacy is a cherished value by living things, and nobody takes the public stance other than Mr. Sanders that this is a bad idea. You don't want to go, "Hey NSA, please don't watch me! I'm against unreasonable and warrantless search and seizure." NSA would be like, "Who? You? John Q Smith whose favorite pizza is pepperoni, wears womens lingerie, and has a dog named Skippy?" Yea, we'll be sure to note here not to watch you John.

    Most people are too scared to say anything at all so that they don't have their lives intruded upon.

    What are you, some kind of constitutionalist weirdo? Those are old documents, you ain't got no such rights. As long as you are against pointless surveillance, you'll be monitored. What are you hiding? On the list you go.

  7. Sure, I doubt anybody takes religion as the objective/scientific truth. It's meant as a public protocol of good will, and is abstract therefore subjective in nature.

    So your argument is that we are too dumbto make a secure product. It's possible, but it takes too much effort to understand the complexity so we should have faith. Right. I'll get back to you on that.

  9. The last two paragraphs of the article pretty much states that this is just paranoid correlation.

    Because people realized there is more money in selling broken products which are not immediately obvious than selling non-broken products. Pop-Station (PSP knock-off) from China is a similar story. Is it possible to make a secure product? Absolutely. Will any company produce one? Absolutely not, because triple letter companies (err security organizations), and friends, need to get in your phone. For your safety of course, or the terrorists win.

    Hi! Good morning, welcome to real life where sith happens despite the government knowing everything about you. Can we go back to some of those outdated constitutional protections now? Maybe? Okay, I'll just wait and be optimistic either way, hoping to read more good news on here :)

    You are absolutely wrong. If only there were more backdoors and viruses preinstalled on devices we could have stopped terror from existing. The evil doers are just protected thanks to the pesky lock icon next to your browser.

    What life? Oh you mean those few hours you spend watching T.V. until it's time to work? Pffft, overrated.

    It must work with a cold fusion reactor.

  15. This guy gets it. Say you got a bridge you need to build and you're a politician. A major crisis happens where chickens start exploding all around the world. First thing the politician in going to say is, "We're sorry for all the children, an our brave sons and daughters who have lost their lives to these evil chickens... *moment of silence* ... now if we only had a bridge built, we could transport more chickens!"

  16. So they asked the dog, "What should we do during a food crisis?" and he replied, "Save all the bacon bits!"

  18. Not necessarily, no. I'm a moderate Muslim and like any religion Islam has some pretty out dated text that nobody observes. Your observation is superficial and frankly a little offensive.
