    We're talking about online accountability.

    Really? I though we were talking about online anonymity. I don't see why the two concepts should be conflated.

    Before you blather about online accountability, how about some accountability in Washington ADHD. Enough of this bullshit! The presidency on down from Johnson to O'bama and their minions need to have their collective feet held over hot coals until they confess all their lies and theiveries. Don't ask a single question, just heat em up till they sing like canaries.

    Nuclear power sucks. It's like a boat, just a hole in the water that you keep shoveling money into.
    The big question is, what is the true state of energy development? You will never get a straight answer from the utility companies, the government people cannot or will not divulge what they know. We can put men on the moon, look at every planet in the solar system, look at distant planetary systems and ascertain probable life bearing planets, yet we're stuck with fossil fuels owned by people without a lick of sense.

    You hit the nail on the head.

    In fact there are already cures for cancer. They involve oxygenating or alkalinizing the body, among other things.

    However, cancer treatments are so lucrative that anyone curing cancer would face the wrath of the pharmaceutical cartel.

    This is true. Look at Royal R. Rife, Wilhelm Reich, the elements in medicinal marijuana, MMS. Anything not forbidden will be denied.
    Modern allopathic medicine refuses to look at any protocol not endorsed by big pharma. Modern medicine is only good for trauma and breast implants. Traditional Chinese medicine and Ayervedic medicine are better for chronic issues. These two forms of therapy have thousands of years of data and prove to be effective, just look at the size of their populations.

    Just because they can't patent something it has no value? That's a fucked up mentality.

    But if you get cancer, the patent troll lawyers would sue you for infringing on their patents. So, you get screwed for being healthy, you get screwed for being sick and you really get the shaft paying for medical "cures" that don't work, never have and never will. I love this country!

    It's not how long before it breaks out, but who will start it. These crooked politicians will do anything to stay in power, except, cater to the voters wishes.
    That's why I believe all politicians should have term limits, (which they refuse to set). The first term will be based on the promises made, the second term is for fulfilling those promises, the third term starts at twenty years and increases or decreases depending on how well the the crooks kept their promises. The last term is a prison term that breaks the cycle of politics, business payoff, politics, repeat.

  24. Re:Simple... on Police Increasingly Looking To Smartphones For Evidence · · Score: 1

    We should not be worried about the police catching more criminals. The guilty should be caught and punished.

    When it comes to police actions, the same cautions apply as with all police actions of force: a- Personal integrity may be more important than catching criminals for minor offences (compare - jaywalking and file sharing doesn't justify lethal force) b- Police may be corrupted and may misuse information (not as rare as it should be) c- False accusations may be harder to disprove with information disadvantage d- Police may misinterpret complex data e- Police resources going into looking at smartphones could have been put to better use elsewhere

    I'm sure there are other reasons too. However, that the bad guys gets caught isn't one of them.

    This sure sounds like unlawful data mining on a physical level. It also means you have to be a tad smarter.
