Get access to the e-mail address, then use the normal password reset process, to change the dead person's password.....
Or if you think you know the e-mail address and probable answers to security questions: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT...
Or... call apple support, tell them you can't access your iTunes account anymore and you lost access to your e-mail.
Answer various questions about the account as the diseased would.
Make sure you have access to the last 4 digits of credit card numbers, billing addresses, etc.

I think that if your employer intercepts and decrypts your bank traffic without prior approval from your bank, they are committing a U.S. felony.
No problem... they are intercepting the session. They are probably not recording anything about the information in the HTTPS session, unless it maches one of their rules as a violation.... even then, they probably only log that a violation occured.
Why are you assuming that the employees are dishonest and stealing company time and access? My company specifically allows personal use of their network (within certain limitations), so nobody here is being dishonest
It's just as important to catch ones accidentally leaking company information as it is to catch dishonest folks.
All I can say is that this client is a large incumbent provider -- that you would probably be likely to sign up with if you moved into one of their service areas, and I am quite sure the policy of not using bridging mode on modems is fairly standard in the industry, it is not as if that is unusual.
I was explicitly warned that they would no longer be able to offer remote support for troubleshooting the modem if I left it in bridge mode
Correct. I work for an ISP on the engineering side. For the very reason that modems in bridge mode cannot be remotely monitored via IP SNMP, or accessed via Telnet etc -- our policy is route always; no modems in bridge mode. No exceptions. I'm surprised Comcast even allowed that.
If a customer has their own router, then additional IP addresses can be routed to the modem and then on to their router --- otherwise, the modem will be their NAT boundary.
No customers are provided the username/password access: all config changes by support.
If monitoring finds a modem to be tampered with or no longer responsive -- most likely service will be temporarily turned off, until support clears it after the customer pays for a truck roll (in the case someone did something dumb such as insert a pin in the reset slot of our modem).
In bridge mode, the DSL/Cable modem no longer has an IP address. The only way to regain control over it is to be connected with a laptop on the LAN side of the device and know the 192.168.bla.blah address of the modem, or do a hard reset.
The great thing about diets is there are so many to pick from.
Just like standards.
The goal is to make you eat less, anyways. So since you need to feel miserable about the food to eat less,
every individual needs a different "diet" to make them miserable about food, therefore coincidentally resulting in them having less an appetite and therefore lowering their food intake ------ that's the real secret to diet effectiveness, low food-esteem.
You like fatty foods such as fried food, nuts, potato chips, and ice cream? No problem! We have a fat-free meat and fruit diet designed just for you, so you can feel less excited about food in the name of improving your health!
You really like sandwiches, especially peanut butter and jelly with a glass of milk? No problem! We have a carb-free gluten-free , dairy-free diet plan that is sure to make you miserable in the name of improving your health!
Your favorite food is the hamburger, and you love yourself a good steak? No problem; we've got a high-carb vegan diet to make you miserable in the name of improving your health!
Your favorite foods are apple pie and steamed broccoli? No problem; we have a high-fat high-protein no-fruit diet designed to make you miserable in the name of improving your health!
its like saying my landlord is violating copyright if everyone in our apartment building hung out an antenna and saved a personal copy of the shows they wanted.
Your landlord hasn't hung out a single large PCB with everyone's antenna being a small button-sized module attached to it.
But I think the bigger problem for them is They dynamically assign antennas. It's not like you're renting a specific antenna.
For example: if it's a water-purifier; install a plastic barricade around the unit with a chained door and padlocks.
Each department has a representative called a "gatekeeper" that holds the key to one of the padlocks.
And there are TWO logbooks to be kept for all use of the equipment:
one by the user, and one by the "gatekeeper" of their department.
When someone wants to use one of the pieces of shared equipment, they have to go to their department's gatekeeper
and get the key. A log entry must be created for "key checkout".
To access the equipment, the user now has to visit the room, when the equipment is not in use ---
open the logbook in the room, inspect the tamper-evident seal on their department's padlock:
write down the date, time, and seal number. break the seal. use their department's key to open it and remove the barricade.
Now, they can use the equipment.
When they are done, they must close the door, reaffix and lock their department's padlock,
and make the entry in the logbook.
Call the gatekeeper. The gatekeeper will come visit the equipment room, verify that the equipment is in good working order:
note the date and time in the gatekeeper log book.
Verify that the proper entries have been made in the equipment use logbook
Affix a new tamper-evident seal to their department's padlock, and write down the seal number in the gatekeeper logbook with "Key returned"
The user will sign the log entry, and the gatekeeper will return the key to the department's lockbox, and sign the entry.
What part of the constitution allows parents to compel their children not to get vaccinated
If the parents didn't compel them; then very likely, few or no children would get vaccinated, just due to the pain of being poked by a needle.
But the children are minors, that is: not recognized as sovereign individuals --- instead, the parents are custodians of their health and well-being, and therefore --- the parents have the right to make the decisions that the child is not capable of responsibly making.
It's "compelled" through requirements to vaccinate your children before they can attend public school, which has passed muster, but an outright mandate absent no other interaction with the State? Where does such authority come from?
OK... fine... you prove that you've been vaccinated against Measles, Polio, and other contagions once every 15 years, and you get a golden sticker attached to your arm, or a little rice-grain sized RFID tag implanted, linking to your database ID that proves that you are up to date on your vaccinations.
You dont' have a current sticker or transponder?
You can't be on public property, period. No public school.
No presence on public streets or roads.
No legal entry to any store or other public place of accomadation, etc.
So not mandatory.... just a health requirement, before you can set food on public land.
Taking a case to trial is an ordeal for both sides
Which is precisely why they should be allowed to settle, BUT
with no "confidentiality"; in other words, it should be mandatory that settlement terms shall be published
in the public record, before the court can accept them.
I know about Cygwin; MKS is vastly superior to Cygwin, since everything just works in a standard DOS shell, it doesn't require it's own special environment
I would say Cygwin is vastly superior, because it's free, and I can download it today, and be up and running today and done.
MKS seems to be commercial, AND there is not even a price published just a "Request Quote" or "More Information" button.
Ethics aside, If they told her not to tell anyone about the settlement but she did anyway, is it really a good risk to have her collude in perjury?
If my suspicions are correct: no perjury necessary.
Their parents most likely revealed to her some facts of the case, long before a settlement agreement had been presented, and she figured out the settlement bent through information synthesis on her own, not from them sharing the confidential settlement documents or discussing the agreement.
They should have told her before the agreement was signed. "Once the agreement was signed, we did not tell anyone."
This is their best bet: claim not to have told her about it.
Take the story that they didn't disclose to her the settlement details: she had some prior knowledge about the case, and she correctly guessed the settlement details that the defendant wanted secret.

Not legally enforceable. The user just has to play dumb, saying your modem is defective and just stopped working,
I don't know about that. I think what you just described is called fraud, though. And they probably aren't going to notice if it just happens once.
When the problem repeats a few times, they are eventually going to figure out that the user is breaking it.
All I can say is that this client is a large incumbent provider -- that you would probably be likely to sign up with if you moved into one of their service areas, and I am quite sure the policy of not using bridging mode on modems is fairly standard in the industry, it is not as if that is unusual.
And yet you are using a web-based app to say this.
Indeed... Slashdot has been most instrumental in encouraging discourse.
Have no fear.... Beta is here to fix all that.
I was explicitly warned that they would no longer be able to offer remote support for troubleshooting the modem if I left it in bridge mode
Correct. I work for an ISP on the engineering side. For the very reason that modems in bridge mode cannot be remotely monitored via IP SNMP, or accessed via Telnet etc -- our policy is route always; no modems in bridge mode. No exceptions. I'm surprised Comcast even allowed that.

and how will they stop this from eating up router CPU / IO use?
It won't, but the spare CPU/IO not required to deliver service to you is comcast's, since they own the router.

The mail account on which I run Thunderbird is web accessible. Why would I need to run ssh?
Vi is a terminal-based text editor, and Emacs is a terminal-based mail reader.
Neither of these are web-based tools.
If web-based is the only kind of interface you prefer to use, then you don't need either of the two tools.

TurboTax

Wrong again. Emacs is a very good text editor.
No... Emacs is a very good e-mail reader.
Your e-mail reader should never be used as your text editor.
There are two kinds of editors; emacs, and lesser.
The text editor is called Pico or Jed. EMACS is short for Eighty% Memory and Constantly Swapping
