I don't have any problems with rationalizing medical liability, but the savings aren't all that likely to amount to much (the article references a CBO study):
If I read their website correctly, after you do the first $100 refill, any later refills also last for 1 year, regardless of the amount (they only offer roaming coverage in the areas where I use a phone, so they won't initiate a phone to those addresses and I haven't gone through the process of misleading them).
If they have a store where you are going to be, T-Mobile.
If not, go to a Walmart and pick up a prepaid phone for $20 (you would have to spend a minute and figure out which one made the most sense at the given time). Note that some of the prepaid carriers do use GSM, but the phones and SIMs may still be locked.

That makes it pretty clear that they don't expect people to share information illegally.
I guess everyone involved gets some publicity though.
That was largely my point. We tend to cultivate certainty as a habit of thought, and your question is phrased in such a way that it prompts a certain answer. That cultivation is to the point where, for example, there isn't any honest discussion on TV, people just go on and rattle talking points at each other (my notion being that this would be a less effective strategy in a world where people cultivated careful consideration as a habit of thought).
(I hope this doesn't come across as being hilariously preachy, that isn't my intent; that's why my initial comment just pointed out a characteristic of the question)
Defend it from what? In most programs intended to edit text, indentation is at least going to show up when using a proportional font.
And the big criticism isn't that python code is indented to show the structure (most coding styles recommend indenting code in a way that shows the structure), the big criticism is that the parser uses the indentation to determine the structure.
It depends on what the concern is; if the attachment of an open source license is the concern, a different license can take care of that (assuming that there is an entity that maintains copyright over the entire work). If the public availability of the code is a concern, then no.
I've never seen George Walker Bush and Barack Obama in the same place at the same time. I've seen video purported to show as much, but we all know what they can do with that these days.

Now, find 20 ways to save 0.5% of medical costs and you are getting somewhere, but this single issue isn't going to solve the whole thing.

4chan seems to be quite a lot of work for a single person.

There are more rules:

One of them says to make sure you have the right to share the content with Gawker.
This is a clause from Gawkers contest rules:

Plus they would have a big customer to sell servers to (themselves...).
To clarify, I mean if they actually tried to make a meaningful competitor.
Windows NT 3.x had lots of features that System 7 lacked.

That statement doesn't actually answer the question.

How can you possibly know if you are willfully ignoring all of them?
There is at least a chance that you are ignoring some of them by accident.
honest yes or no answer.
That last question doesn't have an honest answer.

Have they changed the summary since you read it? Right now, it refers to the blog posting as being 'old'.
I don't think it is so clear what the submitter means by 'open source software'.
I mean, apparently the company that contacted him thinks a different license would take care of their concerns.
It depends on what the concern is; if the attachment of an open source license is the concern, a different license can take care of that (assuming that there is an entity that maintains copyright over the entire work). If the public availability of the code is a concern, then no.
You think it is real? Because it was published by the MSNBC?
(Roughly speaking) How big are those groups?
Correct. I was not there in person and do not believe the so-called "photo evidence".
That's a bunch of people taking a vacation together, not a viable self supporting community.

I prefer area as a judgment of placeness.
Since when has South Dakota been part of California?
