Limiting my access to a website hosted in the same city I'm in won't free up bandwidth for someone across the globe (unless they're also trying to access said website). How about we call it what it is, a lack of capacity in specific geographical areas? And while we're at it, make a few mirrors of Bob's Quick Guide to the Apostrophe wouldn't hurt.
I also saw that in my "corrupt" memdump the VUK, Vol ID, Media Key and the Title Key MAC were all closely clustered in memory: in the first 50kb (of the entire multi megabyte file!) but there were large empty parts around it. Almost as if it was cleaned up.
Just like Google maps having certain areas blurred, clearing just the sensitive things draws more attention to them. Here it was just a simple matter of going back and finding what was there before it was "blurred".
Being dropped as a customer for using "too much" bandwidth is not a neutrality issue, since this results in equal loss of connectivity to everything. It's another issue for sure, one of providers making false claims.
It could also "count" sub-pixels, giving much higher resolution. Of course it would be assuming that the object doesn't have a gray edge or whatever. That 99.5% accuracy sounds suspect, assuming it means that the measurement is always within 0.5% of the actual. What about when it's way wrong?

That's somewhat of a problem, because they are automatically copyrighted when you make them. Even my lame post here is copyrighted. Permission-based culture indeed.
As always, the lawyers always win no matter what the outcome. Theremodynamically, their wins are like heat: always generated when there's any friction.
The people you refer to are mere consumers, hogs who eat whatever you throw them. Advertising and marketing companies, these are the gods who must be served, for they are the source of all that is good in the world!
"security guys break the Mac every single day. Every single day, they come out with a total exploit, your machine can be taken over totally. I dare anybody to do that once a month on the Windows machine."
And every single day, probably thousands of Windows machines are taken over by malware, in the wild. Unless I'm a user with an inconsiderate security researcher in my house who daily takes over my machine, that they do this in their labs is irrelevant to me.
How is this different than Intel simply giving Dell a lower price on their CPUs, or a "rebate" of sorts? In the end, the net flow of money is from Dell to Intel. Would it be perfectly fine if Intel sold Dell CPUs at $1 each, in order to make it silly for them to use AMD?

And how does this relate to managing allocation of the electromagnetic spectrum?
No, it was theft, because that episode of 24 didn't air.
Oh wait, it did. I guess the thief returned it in time for broadcast...

I'm not a big fan of makeup either, but that's taking it a bit far!

We haven't had time to notice it since we've been keeping attention on the ads so our computers keep running.
Duh, people who use cool words like penultimate!
So your're saying that the Mac is so good, even a representative of neutrality would prefer one.
(only making a joke, not an elitist comment)
Wow. At least they still operate on humans. In a few decades it'll mostly be people's pets (along with pet psychiatrists and pet exercise coaches).
This is America, bub. You have to win your innocence and rights whenever we tell you to.

Ahahaha, your post is the best goddamn protest of Slashdot's lameness filter. I love it! Feed the computer its own stupid replies until it gives in.

640 cars per garage should be enough for anyone.
I say we yell and scream and call the authorities every time we see a BSOD. Stick it to Microsoft!

"It's just a matter of how long it takes them to A. Figure out that it is good and B. to figure out how they want to fuck it up."
Really. Why won't people respect the corporations for their hard work? It's not easy to keep culture locked up.

And the moral is: positive feedback loops can be deadly.

How is that any different than a "real" blog?

I take it they're Vanilla Ice fans?
