If you aren't compliant, you won't be able to sell certain services or take on certain customers. Being compliant is certainly not a waste from a business standpoint.
I've always wondered about the phrase "illegal war." What law, specifically, outlaws the war? It was my understanding that Congress authorized the war, and Congress literally makes the laws.
Yes, and as I said, some types of police action do not use the legal system as a check BEFORE ACTING. Responding to an in-progress attack is very typical of such cases.
You may think of the Internet as just a porn source, but much of the country actually relies on it for commerce and communication. If large portions are unavailable, the costs could be very large, especially if such a tactic is used in conjunction with other attacks.
Would you want your cops to stop an arson in progress, or should they be forced to go through the courts first? A DDoS could do far more damage than an arson.
Is this really what the bill is about? My assumption is that this is intended to give the President the authority to shut down botnet controllers during DDoS attacks. Waiting for the courts in such a scenario is unreasonable. The police can immediately respond to a crime in progress; this would make something similar possible in a botnet/DDoS scenario.
As long as the law clearly indicates that the powers are authorized for use against attacks (rather than against political speech or against copyright infringement) I don't see any issue with this thing.
Academia is not the same thing as science. There's a lot of meaningless sophistry in academia: all of sociology and much of psychology, for example. This question sounds like it fits in there somewhere.
Can an animal detect red? That's a meaningful question. What is red? That's meaningful, too, if you're referring to the light spectrum. What does red feel like to me? That's a language game, unless you can define what you're talking about precisely.
I don't think the term "creature's idea of red" is scientifically meaningful. How do you define that? If you can't, it's a pointless distinction--a language game.
"Deaf culture" seems like a cult to me. And since people are already permitted to refuse medicine for their children on religious grounds, the deaf will be able to mistreat their kids legally as soon as they do the paperwork to become a religion.
Who is declaring the metaphorical war against whom? Are you saying China declared war on the multi-national corporations by hacking them?
I think they're just recognizing that a communist government is a bad environment for a corporation, despite extremely low wages. China will enforce its laws only when they suit China. If you build something there, don't expect them to shut down factories producing knock-offs of your designs. And if the shit ever hits the fan, ALL your investments in China will become the sole property of China.
That was never an ideal business environment. China was an interesting experiment, but any big corp is wise to limit its ties to the ironically-named Peoples' Republic.
Because "operating system" means more than you think it means. It ships with a desktop manager which allows email, IM, and other communication services to access the dock. That's what "integrates" means.

To hate millions of people because of the actions of a few is pretty ignorant, Mr. Coward.

It is not "unchecked." The legal system still exists.
The current means of court intervention, tort, does take weeks, actually.
Controlling a DDoS is a crime in progress, actually.
So you are incorrect on both counts, actually.
Actually.

Um... it would be pretty easy to determine which colors are visible to people or other animals: just run through the spectrum and see if they respond.
"Deaf culture" seems like a cult to me. And since people are already permitted to refuse medicine for their children on religious grounds, the deaf will be able to mistreat their kids legally as soon as they do the paperwork to become a religion.
You have to nuke a city several times to do more than just put a dent in it.
One would assume that counts as one launcher and multiple warheads. The term "warhead" isn't exactly vague.
I have never seen a "made in Russia" label on anything. China? Taiwan? Pakistan? South Korea? Mexico? Yes yes and yes. Russia? Never.
He will spend all that time playing video games, you know.
It's hard for a judge to apply SLAPP liberally when he's dealing with a subject he doesn't understand at all.
Wait for the kids who grew up online to dominate the courts. Then the legal climate for the Internet will start to become reasonable.

Yes, it is a long story. Eventually, the US employed trade sanctions against South Africa because of apartheid.
Thanks for trolling by, though.
You have a fantastically fucked up view of the world.
NetBSD goes to great pains for such portability. Java has it by default.
I don't have to provide shit. I asked a question, you made the claim. That's how it works. Understand?
Here's something for you to read:

You cheapen the word "imperialism" by using it in the way you do.
Internet blowhard.
So, again, all trade sanctions are "imperialism" in your opinion?
So all trade sanctions, even those related to human rights violations, are "imperialism" in your opinion?
