The FBI pays a reward for turning in people with kiddie porn, they do not pay people to look for it beforehand. That difference is key to the legality of the program.
You have no expectation of privacy when you hand your computer over to someone. You, not the FBI, are paying them to search your stuff and find out what's wrong with the computer. If they find something illegal, the FBI will pay a reward for turning it in. It's all legal, constitutional and above-board.
When I was working at Staples and was informed that if we found kiddie porn on someone's computer the FBI would pay for turning them in. I'm okay with that. And let's face it, you give up any expectation of privacy when you hand someone your computer and ask them to look at it.
Here's what's wrong with the "right to be forgotten" law: "politicians and government officials submitted 33,937 [requests]". Politicians and government officials are the exact people whose pasts must remain a matter of permanent public record.
Who do the other 11% think is responsible for their kids? The government? Cell phone companies? Nobody, because cell phones shut them up even better than TV?
And what about the 19% who think it's up to someone else to make sure their kids don't see inappropriate material? What other parental responsibilities do they think they can shirk? Who do they think should be doing their job for them?
There have been so many stories about cryptocurrencies lately that at first glance I thought they were talking about yet another one. It took a moment for me to realize they were talking about actual miners taking actual things out of the ground.
specifically harvest bank info and use it to transfer funds equal to the purchase price to my company. Plus any applicable taxes. Then I'd send them an email telling them not to worry, we corrected the accounting oversight that resulted in them ending up with a bad serial number. Oh, and that as a courtesy we waived the service fee. What service fee you ask? It doesn't matter, we waived it. Stop worrying so much.
It sure sounds like it's trying to whip up outrage while implying political deception. As if letting the State decide how to allocate the funds is the same as not allocating any.
Spies use all kinds of things to pass coded messages. Should we really splash examples all over the media? I don't see any benefit, just potential harm.

Make it color and I'll be impressed.
I wouldn't mind some lumen limits. I've been blinded too many times myself.
Duh, that's the whole point.

Depending on the sort of mistake it may not matter. Juvenile criminal records are sealed and names aren't released.
The lack of coverage was a real deal-breaker. Now I can go without missing out on my daily /.
As a currency exchange, wouldn't they already have to report transactions to the IRS?
Panic, patch, patch, panic, remove patches, reappy patches, panic, remove patches, deal with screaming users, patch, curse Intel....
Without Buzzfeed, how would we know about the weird tricks banks/manufacturers/service companies don't want you to know?

I think I'm sick of cryptocurrencies.

These are editorial basics people!

So? The State, which best knows it's needs and priorities, decides how much to devote to what. !Devoted != None.
I'd like to know that myself. Was the primary purpose tracking people's phones or providing public wifi?
Shoulda kept some handy.

I only put one space after the period. Sorry everyone!
That doesn't matter. Back in 2009 it was all I could do not to put on a Batman costume and hang myself.
Unless we're looking to farm the Arctic, I don't see a problem.
2016 EU price for a 76 pound "flask" of mercury was $1400, but there are export bans in place that make exploiting finds pointless.
