hotmail has been known to send a lot of spam. I hope someone takes control of hotmail domain, since microsoft is unable to police it. (Note that it has recently been brought down, by someone should have taken control of their domain when it was a serious problem).
The point is a free service being abused is expected. It is not as if noip encouraged abuse and were paid by abusers.
There will more consequences that you state here. Drive during peak hour traffic, you get a higher premium than the ones that leave early or dont drive in peak hour. Drive early morning, late night, higher premiums for you. "The device tracks your mileage, time of day drive, and number of hard brakes" - progressive snapshot.
Soon, the device will have gps which will give you a "higher discount". Drive through or around risker parts of the town, higher premiums for you.
The net effect is insurance companies dont even out risks, but just cherry pick the juicy customers, that are pretty much risk free. The rest either pay a very high insurance or go uninsured. Picking out juicy customers is not what insurance is supposed to be.
so let me get this straight... the country with arguably one of the best written histories over millennia, is no longer allowing history to be maintained?
Victors and the rulers still get to keep making and writing history. Peasants, dont.
they still can't clean up their garbage, their sewage, or feed, house, and clothe 90% of their population. They can't even keep the power grid they do have up and running reliably.
You know what can fund them? Launching satellites for other countries, commercially, can.:)
If they have the authority to detain you if you not divulge your password, for all practical purposes they can make you reveal your password. People that are motivated enough about their privacy and data, that they are willing to be detained is exceptionally rare.
By the same definition, all a court can do is hold you on contempt of court, if you refuse to divulge your password, you dont have to give the court your password too. Admittedly the court can hold you much longer than ICE and CBP, but it is just becomes a degree of pressure. They both are effective enough for pretty much everyone.
Do read https://www.eff.org/wp/defendi... . ICE and CBP do have the authority to detain you or refuse entry into the country (for non-US citizens), or detain your devices (the last one happens often), if you refuse to give them the password.
The TSA can never force you to give them your password (or copy data from your phone for the matter). CBP (Customs and Border Protection) always could and still can. Know your acronyms and rights folks, it can be very useful.
It obviously doesnt cover lying by law enforcement. But that is already a crime.
Nope, average american produces more CO2 than an average chinese person, but nope, an average american doesnt pollute more than average chinese person. SO2, NO2, soot (carbon particles) and other particulate matter are much more serious.
Also averages are misleading. An average artic (or antarctic) resident would populute more, than an american, it doesnt mean they dont get to complain about american pollution or chinese pollution.
Why should China, or any developing country, give up its own economic development
It shouldnt, and no one is asking it to. We are asking China to stop polluting though. I live in west coast, and a lot of our air pollution comes from China. It is not unresonable to ask China to stop. It doesnt even have to affect their economic development if done right.
All number systems are zero indexed. In 10 bits you only get to store 0 to 1023. To store 1024 (assuming the number zero exist in your number system), you need 11 bits.
", are NOT public record" Yes they are. If you want to buy something from me using credit, I can get ALL that information. It's not even expensive.
You are saying if I authorize you to obtain a copy of my credit report, and give you my SSN, data of birth, name and address, you can obtain a copy, and this means it is public record. You and I have very different definition of public record.
He did have his day in court and he lost. Did even read a line of TFA. And the court impossed a $5,000/day per day fine, for non-compliance. No big deal right, you would have just paid it out of your pocked (do remember his is a small business, that doing okay, but no where to close to pay those fines). If he had still refused, he would been hit with a contempt of court.
Yup, idiots blasting through red lights is a big no. Thankfully that is not what the article or anyone is proposing. In Idaho, red lights can be treated as stop and go for bicyclist. Running red lights is still illegal, and fines are much higher than other states/cities and are enforced. Bicylist are also allowed to make rolling stops at stop signs. Which means slow down, to make sure the intersection is safe, and yield to other vehicles, and if there is no one, just proceed. Blasting through a stop sign is a big no, too.
They dont. You can get your own private plane and use the airspace if you want to. The pilot has to be licensed to fly and the plane certified, apart from that nothing is preventing you from sharing the air space. Pilot-less RC planes on the other hand are a different topic.
Where has the discussion played out? I would love to see the discussion happening elsewhere. Slashdot is mainly for comments. If I could see the comments elsewhere, that has been moderated well, I would agree this story is not needed in slashdot.

GnuDIP (and BIND) is okay too.
powerdns + powerdyn
They dont have re-transmission rights. It costs extra obviously.

Yup, they do not accept Euros either. They convert your Euros into US dollars, which they accept.
Nothing in the article says they stored these numbers. Target had their card readers compromised. It could be the same case here.

Yes, they still do sell win 7.
Other countries could very well be totalitarian states. Atleast we are not China, is not a point in favour of NSA.

Why must labor cost in US be high ?
Because the high cost of living is high in the US.
It would have taken him forever to type that on a 'dumb' phone (I remember the T9 keyboards). Smart phones still win despite their 'problems'.
