    The key innovation in Telex is that it uses "stations" installed at ISPs to recognize and reroute specially tagged requests from clients trying to reach censored sites.

    Way to misunderstand.. If we're so 'advanced' we shouldn't be acting the same way our 'savage' ancestors, which, unfortunately we are. See, what you're not getting is that I'm not criticizing the ancestors as much as our exact same behavior and bigotry and prejudices. I really dig the way you stand so tall for American authoritarianism while knocking everybody else's. There's an 'ism' you suffer from. I can't quite pin it down, but it is pretty "rad", as the kids used to say.

    Heh, I actually agree with that, but ultimately there will be war between the space people and the earth people, exactly in the same fashion that we make war against our African/Middle East ancestors.

    In only 14 years from now? I highly doubt it. Besides being a dumb idea, the US can't even put a man into earth orbit anymore. What makes anybody think they'll be sending anybody into deep space any time soon? Unless it's part of the war effort, it just ain't gonna happen

    "vertical? horizontal? understandable, reasonable?? Ya right..

    It's a bunch of circular gibberish designed as welfare for lawyers and bureaucrats who don't understand any of it either, but will make millions arguing about it in front of a guy who dresses funny, and might even wear one of those white wigs. I cannot for the life of me understand how we give these people any kind of credibility, much less actual authority.. Ultimately we will devolve into the age of bureaucracy when nothing else is left.

    Or maybe the joke just went my head, again.. as your write up there was pretty impressive :-)

    July 12, 1998 - TX

    Six police from Houston's anti-gang task raid the home of Pedro Oregon Navarro. Officers storm his bedroom, where Navarro awakes, startled and frightened, and reaches for his gun. Police open fire and shoot Navarro twelve times, killing him. His gun was never fired. Police found no drugs or evidence of drug use or sale in Navarro's home.

    Police obtained Navarro's address after pulling over a car of three men, one of whom they arrested for public intoxication. Already on probation, the suspect offered a "tip" on a nearby drug dealer in exchange for his release. Police agreed to the bargain, and obtained Navarro's address from the suspect.

    The officers who shot Navarro were fired. Only one was charged. A jury took about an hour to acquit him of misdemeanor criminal trespass. In August of 2005, two of them applied for reinstatement, adding that they'd hoped to be 'vindicated' of the Navarro shooting.

    Yes, and I disagree. It looked like it was under full control the whole time. The descent to and roll on the floor was intentional. Cameras mounted near the edge will have a better view. Also, mounting the internals with springs or whatever will make it even more crash-worthy. This is the first prototype of its kind. You're way off base here. It's like saying the Wright Brothers first flying machine won't amount to anything.
