Think of all the radiation and groping this man has had to endure at the hands of the TSA. I'd like to see a follow up article 5 years from now to let us know what type of cancer he's dying from.
But I wonder if they are modified in any way. I would have thought that electronics that go into space had to be radiation-hardened and be produced with components that are more reliable / have tighter specs than what are used in consumer devices. Cool idea, though.
I believe IBM is one of the bigger players in this market, if not the biggest.

To me, this is just another way that our tax dollars are being funneled into corporate bank accounts.
Sadly, I have to agree with what they're doing. For a long time I was all for nuclear power since it seemed to be the only realistic source of clean energy. However, as we have learned, corporations and government agencies simply cannot be trusted with anything as important as making sure nuclear power is produced in a safe manner. There will always be some level of incompetence, laziness, or greed that will make 100% safe nuclear power impossible.
This will be the beginning of the end of the Internet as we know it. Once these corporations have the power to control what we see, how much we see, and even IF we are allowed online... I guess I'm not going to want any part of that anyway.
Now I can not only know what a bunch of people I don't care about are doing everyday, I can also video chat with a bunch of people I don't care about!!!
I hear the government is looking for places they can cut spending. This would be an excellent place to start. The TSA has done absolutely nothing to make us more secure since 9/11, and it's about time people start realizing this fact.

Now apply it to advertising too.
Am I the only one who couldn't care less about tablets?
If we treat it like a disease, then we should just "manage" the symptoms with overpriced "treatments," instead of actually fixing the problem.
A white roof would raise my heating costs in the winter. What I really need is a white roof in the summer and a black roof in the winter!
FUCK YOU TSA.

What competition?

So someone kept up with their email and then wrote an article about it? Color me impressed.
Hate the game. Not that I agree with what he's doing, but he's simply playing the game. What really needs to be fixed are the game's rules.
