The max I've used on Telecoms Big Time is about 380Gb and I've had to give up torrenting (total ratio 1.045) now that I'm stuck on 20Gb a month. Telecoms biggest plan is 40Gb and the largest plan I could find with another ISP (actually a power company) http://www.kinect.co.nz/Broadband.aspx?m=2
was 100Gb on their big user plans although for that ISP's plans under 10Gb any data you haven't used carries over to next month and if you go over you just buy another data pack
So they've taken avatars which serve hardly any purpose, created large numbers of useless items for these useless avatars, charges money for these useless items and then integrated them into applications and platforms where they will continue to serve no purpose. In summery they are going to succeed in charging money for what is effectively nothing. Not surprising from any company these days.
Correct me if I'm wrong but what "hacker" culture does facebook have.
Somehow I can't connect social networking and stupid flash games to "hacker" culture.
But what if the sign outside makes no mention of this note taking and sharing?
And besides, what goes on in the internet would be more like if that person followed you around town spying on you and taking notes of everywhere you visit.
The US government is singled out because people have gotten used to and have come to expect that sort of behavior from all the other governments you mentioned.
If the spent so much time and effort doing this study they could have surely come up with a more accurate figure than 25% for japan. $41.5 billion is little more than a large random guess.
I agree. Most company's will say that the product they're selling is superior to pirated versions like in a DVD trailer where it claimed that pirated movies are low quality and are stuck with foreign audio and subtitles while in reality the pirated version is identical in quality but without 50 unskipable movie trailers and anti-piracy warnings blocking your way

On the torrenting plan it's only free from 2am to 8am for the first 75Gb, after that it's $2.56 per Gb

But Linux actually works correctly most of the time.
Please explain to me how too much distilled water is you?

I already assume that nearly all ads are scams and avoid/block them. Mostly applies to Google's ads

It seems to me that its like no-script but only for trackers.
Where even calculator manufactures are trying to control how we use things we pay for. Why do they even care how we use them after we pay for them?
