Perhaps the designers of the aircrafts envisioned a time in the future when the aircrafts might be fighting against each other... In which case you certainly would not want the pilots to be able to talk to each other without Command finding out.
I have a 7 year old child in school. The school has my cell phone number in case of emergency, so that I can go pick up the child. I am often away from my desk in meetings and other such things. I also would rather not use the company technology (phone, internet), since it may be monitored, in order to protect the privacy of my child.
I guess my answer would be that I would not work at such an employer.
See http://kissws.com/ in any browser beside IE. You'll get the page. With IE, you'll get something else. And there's nothing you can do to coerce IE to show it as a web page. So you'll have to switch to another browser.
I'm a geek. I run Windows XP OEM install on my Aspire One laptop.
However, I run debian stable for any server stuff.
And I don't actually do development on the netbook. I remote into the debian machine and there I do work.
Does that make me a hypocrite? No. I never claimed that Linux should be on all the desktops. I claimed, and continue to, that linux can be a fine desktop for people who know how to set it up well enough. I personally don't want to invest the time to do that.
X-COM was an absolutely great game. I loved to name my soldiers after famous people and watch them get demoralized: "Tom Hanks has gone berserk" and start shooting teammates in the back.
So good!
And the aliens were actually hard to beat.
The ambiance was great too, and kept you scared on scary missions. (city missions were especially tense)
Ah, good memories.
Also, the feeling of losing an entire team except one guy back on the shuttle and out of the lz.
They should make a X-COM Vietnam 1966 with CCR soundtracks. It would be the best.

You know how hard it is to create links to these peer-reviewed journal articles on the internet? This is because the vast majority of these live inside the pay-to-enter walled garden of academia.
This is the reason wikipedia came into being: to address the very issue of inaccessibility.
Suppose you go make a reservation on an airplane, from an IP address that is currently mapped to tor.
If you were in the FBI, would that be a flag for you to dig deeper?
What if you made a reservation on an airplane, from an IP address that is currently coming from a proxy.
You get the idea.
Is there a way to get the mac address of the pc if it connects to a commercial wifi service (like Hotspot, for example?) Would Dell, HP, ASUS or any other identify the purchaser of a specific mac address owner?
There are many ways to find out who is who if you are the government and you tap the internet tubes, and you have secret rooms in the communication companie's headquarters, and you know what you are doing, and the NSA is helping you out.
I know I would be digging for that sort of stuff if it was my job.
Let's say the traveler cancels at the last minute, and the plane blows up. They go check it out, because maybe he/she was tipped off by a friend not to get on the plane.
I knew a guy who was supposed to be on flight 800 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TWA_Flight_800) but that morning he fell down carrying his metal trash down the stairs and injured himself. He went to the hospital and was OK but he had missed the flight. The next day the FBI came over and wanted to know why he had not been on the plane. He had to convince them that he had gone to the hospital. They went and checked out his story.

Question: Why do you not need to indent Perl code?
Answer: You put all the code on one line. /me ducks.
It could also be a County-Funded P2P node, and forego any staffing beyond a few guys in IT.

Wouldn't evidence of Neanderthals completely invalidate the claims of Creationism?
Income tax, perhaps. But they do pay sales tax, gasoline tax, alcohol and tobacco taxes...
make your xhtml1.1 page with a .xml extension.

"Perhaps not lemmings, but they certainly are incapable."
There, fixed it for ya.
Well, I agree too.
On the client, I've run Ubuntu, mandrake, red hat, debian, ... The reality is that I do all my work remotely, so as long as I can ssh I'm happy.
It's just that I don't even want to be bothered to make a bootable usb stick. (no cd/dvd drive in the netbook). Too lazy.

Just to add on, it's only a matter of time until cell phone run debian.
Indeed. There is this cool App Store called apt-get.
I wonder how they stay in business, handing out free samples to all comers...
"Go powerful. Go elegant. GO JAVA!"
Man, that's got to be the funniest sig out there...
Oh, you meant it seriously?
Oh damn, man, I'm sorry. I really am.
Except we don't call them dictators. We call them Friends and Allies.

I personally believe that the majority of naked beer drinkers can be found somewhere in a jpeg or three on the web.
We are supposed to read the summaries too?
You mean 12000 miles long extension cords, right?
When Google Longitude comes out, then you can be really scared.
