It sounds from the summary that so much is blocked by default that you really couldn't do much with the internet without unblocking at least some of the filters. And once you get to the unblock page, the easiest thing to do is to unblock everything.
It's pretty tricky, really. You have to simulate at least 4 satellites' signals, compensating for their orbital movement at the position where you want to tell your target it's located.
There is no way to ensure that any third party company is going to protect your ITAR data, so you can't use cloud based storage. Tell your boss it's (1) a bad idea and (2) you are not going to jail to make it happen.
The problem is that they only fine corporations because there isn't any "one" to imprison
Yes there is. Probably more than one. Someone gave the order to perform an illegal activity. Someone followed the order to perform an illegal activity.
...If the the general orders his troops to go on a raping spree, and they all do it, then they all go to jail.
I beg to differ. What really happens is the incident is covered up and nobody goes to jail unless the press gets hold of the story and then there's a slight chance that a few of the lowest-level soldiers will go to jail.
A corporation cannot break the law without individual human beings in that corporation breaking that law. Those people should go to prison. If the person who broke the law cannot be identified, jail everybody from VP on up and the board of directors.
Your proposed solution delays the punishment and the longer the sentence the more it is delayed. That means there will be no real punishment for serious crimes. I say make them pay now and pay big, up to and if necessary including the entire value of the company.
We need a system of punishments that really works for corporations. The corporation can't break the law without specific people also breaking the law on behalf of the corporation. Those who gave the orders need to go to jail and those who followed the orders also need to go to jail, and the fines have to be meaningful deterrrents and object lessons to other corporations. It has to be made MUCH more expensive to be caught breaking the law than to obey it. Take a year's revenue from a company like Halliburton and the people who own what's left when it's over won't forget, nor will anybody else in industry.
If this destroys the corporation and wipes out its assets, so be it.
Fill a server rack with Dell 3260 storage units, maxed out at 240TB per server. There is room in each rack for 10 such servers, so that's 2.4 petabytes per cabinet which is twice what the article says.
Very much this. The H1-B puts the foreign worker at the mercy of the company doing the hiring. The best and the brightest know they can get a better deal than that, or should be able to. Why become virtual indentured servants in a foreign country if they can do better? We should encourage the best and the brightest to come here, issue temporary visas not tied to any specific company, but if you show a history of near-continuous employment over that visa term, you get fast-tracked to permanent resident status and encouraged to become a citizen.
Keep telling yourself that, buddy. Lower wages make your life better. The US can't compete with foreign workers skills because what? Americans are untrainable?
The price people pay for McAfee and its competitors as well as the lost productivity and power consumption of McAfee and its competitors needs to be figured into that total.
Think about it. The US dollar has always had PLENTY of competition. You want to do business in Mexican pesos or British pounds? That's always been legal. The only thing you can't do is refuse to acknowledge dollars as legal tender.
We have a similar system here in the USA, where ordinary citizens can write whatever law they want and have our Congress vote on it.
Its just that instead of submitting millions of signatures to Congress, you have to submit millions of dollars.
That campaign contribution is just a a way of expressing to your Congressman that it's a great idea with tons of popular support. Really it is. Protected speech and all.
So if I set up a print shop that prints and sells copies of recent bestsellers and sells them dirt cheap to bookstores that sell them at deep discounts to consumer's that's a misdemeanor? How about if I download copies of the latest movie releases, burn them to DVDs and ship them all over Europe?

Sounds like it's so restrictive that it will push everybody to unblock it. You couldn't read the news under those restrictions.
Indeed, and the fact that college students have now done it makes their claims plausible.

Or pirates could run ships aground so they can steal the cargo. Also useful for defending targets against military guidance systems.
There's no bias. Believing in Jesus is like believing in King Arthur, Beowulf, Llugh Lámhfhada, Da Yu, Krishna or Paul Bunyan.
The basis for non-belief is that the things they are said to have done are preposterous.

That's a serious defect in the design of US employment laws. Employee benefits should be pro-rated with hours worked.
It's our own government and citizens spying on us.
Keep in mind this fine isn't for all of that. It's just for deleting a bunch of data. There are more fines to come.
That in itself is a criminal act that if you did it in a non-corporate trial would result in prison time, not a fine.

No, the right thing to do is to go to Ford and show them and only them how it works. It should never be publicly disclosed.

It should depend on the field. It should have to be above the prevailing wage in the USA for the profession and experience required.

See Klinefelter's syndrome for why that seems unlikely to happen.
No feminist would ever make a stupid argument like this...
...And that sounds a lot like No True Scotsman.
So No True Scotsman burns Straw Man?
Where do Lizard and Spock fit in?
