You're (willfully ? ) confusing two distinct issues
One is the abhorrent court mandated (section 97A's) blocks which the ISP's just bend over and take
The other (re this article) is optional web filtering that parents etc can use to prevent access to a wide (stupidly wide) range of websites
They are both pointless in their own way but the section 97A's are the real concern (to me anyway)
The vast vast majority of CCTV cameras are privately owned, 1 in 70 are state owned (approx 800,000 which is still too many in my book)
And as for porn filters, they are optional that the vast majority haven't opted into, the whole thing is bullshit, the only people it will be blocked for is people who opted into filters and I'd wager 99.999% of those who did opt in wouldn't be visiting CCC.de anyway.
I'm almost scared to ask, what is the difference between using capslock and shift? It seems like too much effort for me, but how could it affect a program?
Unsure why but our company laptops are locked down by Safeguard and all passwords use a random combination of upper case characters and numbers, if the user holds down shift while entering the characters it will not be accepted, if they enter it with capslock on it is fine. Perhaps the fine denizens of Slashdot could explain why.
I don't see hacking, I only noticed the domain won't resolve. So its back to ddos again, as always. Lame; guess the only "inteligence" here is that they seem to have targeted the DNS server.
Totally not impressed here.
That's only because NI went scorched earth and took down all their NI UK based websites.
There are screenshots and videos floating about the net

With all the high profile attacks and leaking private info of companies then attacking FBI and other law enforcement agencies I bet his looking for a lifetime sentence. Serves him right.
This is the UK. Should he be someone from lulzsec and if they have a decent amount of evidence to prove he was a main player I'd say he'll get 2-3 years max and likely out in 12-18 months for good behaviour
I'd disagree. I'm no great understander (new word by the way) of geopolitics but since the cold war has died there has been quite a few countries liberated from communist powers, who are you to say that Korea wouldn't have been one of them. Who knows, maybe they'd have become a shining light of democracy and even forced China into a brave new world.
The cod war was nothing compared to the horror inflicted upon us by the cold war, thank you for North Korea btw (assuming you're an American, if not I apologize very very much)
Slavic ?
I take Slavic to mean someone of Eastern/Central European origin of which Iceland most certainly isn't
Of course you may mean something else , I hope to be educated if I'm wrong

It's Ryan Air, O'Leary pull these type of stunts every other month just for the free PR

AFAICT every single NI UK based website is currently offline.
I don't ever want to hear that. Our bagpipes are bad enough as it is.
Japanese copying Scotland again Actually I'm not sure when they have done it before but I'm sure they have /Scottish

Even though this is purely coincidentally, all the believers of the May 21 "rapture" are going to cite this as evidence.
Considering it is now almost 3 hours past the supposed rapture time I doubt it
Thanks for the Streisand effect DHS
