I deal with SSA fairly often. I think they might have another facility in Illinois. At least that's where the calls went to on a couple of occasions when we lost connectivity, and I had to chase down the reason. These are mainframes using VTAM btw.
If I was being tried for murder, and probably lost my job, I wouldn't go out of my way to help the company. Maybe he re-loaned it to someone else. Years ago, I left a large corporation and the head of security for the company came to my home wanting an Informer terminal I had loaned to a senior manager. I told the guy to go away, ask the head of tech support for the equipment, since he'd had it for 6 months.
I happen to work for the Wisconsin department (aka DET). I can confirm in our department, we are allowed to use the internet on our breaks or before/after work. Sites deemed inappropriate for work are blocked (and not the way TFA showed in the screenshot, but maybe that was due to using Chrome). Other departments have their own policies. Other than that I really can't comment. timothy (/. editor) likely knows as much or more about what's going on, since he lives in Madison.
A better question would be, how can other countries be prevented from doing this? Let's assume the Egyptian government succeeds (my opinion atm). What could people in Yemen or Iran, for instance, do now to get around future blocks?
From the summary: "Boeing was hired in 2006" Napolitano was confirmed as Secretary on January 20, 2009. And if it had been shut down earlier, there would likely have been howls from the right wingers about being soft on illegal immigrants. I figure it takes at least a year or two to learn a new job myself.

Even with the umbrella, it'll still stay wet.
Not to worry. It'll be back again in a year or two.
Here's a better link. http://www.spacenews.com/launch/110617-spacex-sues-expert-questioned-falcon.html
Valador's VP who allegedly did this, has his background about halfway down.
According to Wikipedia and Linkedin, he was just hired as CEO of http://www.meinc.biz/AboutUs.aspx (and Wiki implies he took along IP purchased from SCO Group) http://www.linkedin.com/profile/view?id=2173463&authType=name&authToken=0Ec_&locale=en_US&pvs=pp&trk=ppro_viewmore
I'm not the AC, but this might br what he was talking about http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/03/03/mildenhall_website/
It sounded sort of familiar, so I googled it.

You made me actually RTFA, to see if the "U.S. provinces" meant I'd missed the annexation of Canada somehow.
Looks like http://www.capturedlightimages.co.uk/ is his site.

Maybe announce each time that they are being buried in an unmarked grave wrapped in bacon? That might cut down on the religious fanatics.
Perhaps Siberia was in reference to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popigai_crater
Parrots are at Booty Bay. I think the eye patch and peg leg are rep rewards.
ummm...you read TFA? You must be new here ;)
Wasn't the Fort Hood shooter an active military officer? Moot point for me, I stopped flying 10 years ago since I didn't enjoy it anymore.

Maybe they could use an approach such as this: http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/02/12/using-lasers-to-zap-mosquitoes/
50-100 mosquitoes shot down per second.
As of when I post this, noone has mentioned http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html and I rather doubt the author at infoworld has ever read it.
And this helped how?

Can you lend me some sunblock?

Thanks for the link. I used to see the original Batmobile being driven around Burbank Ca. in the 60s. And yes, I'm older than dirt :)
Except they are funny, and should be enjoyed, and modded as such. You comment though, deserves -1 douche.
Thank you for your anecdote. (undoing mod points too, oh well)
