    I do know from what alternative land you are coming where Amiga users loved anything Microsoft. Amiga did things that took almost 20 something years for the PCs to catch up. Even multitasking under 95 was a shit.

    Nobody even bothered to read the parent well. Slashdot sucks. It should not be deemed illegal to own it to investigate how to fight it. Period.

    Smells like a troll and does not know anything about history. Apple had visual interfaces far longer than Microsoft.

    Morally you are right. In practice, I do not see why in the future I have either to see my service slower or pay more because of freeloaders. I understand nowadays with streaming and good quality internet it is quite easy to reach 100-500GB, 2TB seems a bit over the top.

    This configuration is done routinely with VPNs or captive portals.

    If you say. Many beg to disagree, and nobody is talking only about Linux. Plenty of alternatives out there.

    Well if you have it, I guess it does, here homes with IPv6 from the ISP are not yet that common. ;)

    MacBook Pro 15'' are renovating their technology, and the 2014 model is with a very interesting price range at least in the US as we speak...for someone who uses photoshop and Lightroom, there could not be better alternative.

    Nonsense, you dont block DNS, you just do a NAT on them, and send them to the DNS server of your choice, or to your own. Thats what I do at home with pfsense.

    Stupid question, do you already have ipv6 at home and work? ipv6 does not route automagically

    I have my personal theory in that. It is not in interest in the powers that be of some countries to investing in that kind of education, because as long people talks about trash and poo, do not talk, and move their worries to other things.

    You are wrong. What is really shocking is the newspaper publishing an uninformed turd they call news, not stating the truth when saying the devices are not able to listening on conversations and SMSes. Even I know they have been used for quite a while, and there have been scandals of police forces spying on ex-lovers with that, but no....the public in general is not supposed to know that. Shameful.
