Well, I guess it kinda makes sense that an ancient Hindu document describes nuclear war and aliens building the moon, since you know the aliens would have outsourced the IT parts of the project to India.
Back in the early Netware days I had to assing IPX addys to all my servers.

were just a few that I used, can't remember the rest.
We had Motorola FRADs for network connectivity (don't ask) and needed help from Motorola on filtering, so it was pretty funny when their engineer first got a look at the traffic. He didn't seem to mind.
Only if facebook is considered a 'telecommunications system', and I don't think it is.
If 'insert-isp-here' had been capturing packets between the pedo's pc and facebook, reading them, and then acted up on it you would have a better argument.
I guess as long as there are no pics of the prophet then no one will mind.
Oh, who am I kidding? No one will care much outside Syria anyway, at least not for more than 5 minutes and a tweet or 2.
Banking regulatory agency audits are not the same as PCI audits. The OCC can, and has, shut down a bank for failure to comply. Any 'National' bank must comply with the OCC regulators' demands. I worked at one that didn't like the 'raw deal' they got from the OCC so they dropped their national charter (went from being Shady National Bank to Shady Bank, and getting a state charter). Problem is, every OCC (and FRB, and state) audit is long on things like lending policy and HMDA compliance and short on legitimate IT concerns. It's always been just a dog and pony show on that end, because they have accountants auditing IT, and accountants are idiots.
BTW, HIPAA and GLBA are basically one and the same, and banks must comply with GLBA.
Wouldn't it then be more productive if the companies in question were instead forced to hire an FTC-appointed network security inspector and apply any and all changes the inspector tells them to at their own cost?
In theory that would work, but in reality they will just end up getting someone a lot like the OCC, FRB, and state banking authority auditors. They are ridiculously uninformed and ignorant about security practices and IT in general. They will go thru a generic checklist, demand stupid policy documents, and basically waste time and money on both ends (the gov'ts and the company's).
Former Microsoft executive Nathan Myhrvold, who now heads up the controversial Intellectual Ventures patent rights company, told the All Things Digital conference two weeks ago that "I was never a popular kid in class".
"I'm not going to be popular in this class."
Maybe if he spent $250 and bought a freakin vowel he'd have a better shot.
Kudos for having the balls to do this in the face of (gov't) adversity. Too bad it's unlikely for the big ISPs to do the same. They rely too much on gov't help/assistance/looking-the-other-way to want to rock the boat.
Impressive study, but why will no one accept blame for their own actions? We know fast food is bad, but still eat it. We know sitting on the couch with an Xbox controller for hours on end is bad, but won't go outside and shoot some hoops, or take a walk, etc.
It's like everything else; it's not my fault, I have a 'disease', I can't control it. Food is too cheap. Restaurants serve too much.

And guess who Carly Fiorina advises these days....the Republican Party.
That's not a shock, she fits the republican 'we only like women who look like trannies' mold, a la Ann Coulter and Ann Romney.

By 'Call your parents' I am assuming you mean 'yell up the stairs'?

English will be initially supported, with Farsi, Thai, and Hindi support to follow.
That's all well and good, until someone speaks Farsi when trying to buy one of the devices, in which case all hell will break loose.

Wish I had points left to mod this up. I have been saying this for years.

I'd be willing to bet that a lot of folks in South Central, East St Louis, and Camden won't be voting Romney any time soon.
Oh wait, they won't be voting at all. My bad.
Hey dude, if you like the feeling of throwing a hotdog down a hallway then more power to ya!
'The words MICRO and SOFT don't apply to my penis.' In a strange effort to be inclusive, a monitor displaying the lyrics added, 'or vagina.'
What in the hell is an "or vagina"? Is that new hardware slang for an OR gate?
Well, Micro and Soft would be ideal for a vagina.
Don't tell this guy
So if you get a virus in unary code is it called a unary tract infection?
Usually that's what we call a guy with a CCNA and no real-world experience.
How do you think such polling could be best accomplished?
Have a bunch of people walk around and ask other people questions, then have them log in via a portal and report the results.
Not everyone uses the internet, yet everyone should be represented. See the dilemma?
