Would someone familiar with the case draw a distinction between simulated child porn and simulated murder on TV or in the movies or on the internet? Simulated rape or any other crime?

This story does sound like the situation many bay area DSL customers go through in terms of megacorps not communicating with each other. Many DSL customers are actually leasing copper line from PacBell, using the Covad or Northpoint network and paying a third party (ENI etc.) for connectivity.
It can be a nightmare getting problems fixed, since each company has two others to point the finger at!
I've been using CodeWarrior for Mac OS since 1994-5 and CW for WinNT since it became usable, which was basically CW Pro 2. I use it mainly for Java development, but also for Mac OS and Win32 C and C++ development, and sometimes for both together (native methods for Java apps). It's particularly nice for this since you can have all this stuff integrated with subprojects etc.
Anyways, I haven't checked out the Linux version yet, but I imagine (as with the port to Win32) that it will suck for the first version or so, then will get really good. And it will be great, since there several features I absolutely cannot live without!
1. Source Browser
Holy shit. This thing rocks! Turn on browse info for your project. It does not make it take 15 times longer to build (like DevStudio). Now, in addition to syntax coloring, you may choose to have whatever color you like for
Classes
Enums
Globals
Templates
Constants
Functions
Macros
and Typedefs
Now for the rad part. Right click on a class name. You get a popup with four items
Go to Class Declaration
Open Browser for Class
Open Hierarchy for Class
Go to Member Function Definition ->
The first one opens the source file that the class is declared in, scrolled to the location you last closed it in. The second one opens a "Browser" window for the class (more on this later). The third one opens a graph in a big scrolling window that shows little boxes for each class with lines drawn to indcate the class hierarchy. And the fourth one (so rad) open a popup menu right there with every method (and parameter types for each). If you select one (many times I just want to look; "what's that overloaded method signature?") it open the source file the method's in scrolled to the top of the comment directly preceeding that method.
The "Browser" window (which will be familiar to Smalltalk developers) has three panes: "Member Functions," "Data Members," and "Source." The first two are scrolling boxes with method signatures and data members with little icons to denote if they're static or not. There are checkboxes at the top of the window that allow you to enable display (in any combination) of "Inherited," "Public," "Protected," and "Private" members. Like filters. Click on a member, and the Source pane shows only that member (with it's preceeding comment). You can have any number of these windows open at once.
Now the really nifty part. Let's say you're developing in Java. Why not take the Java source code (for the java.* packages themselves), put them in a project, and build it with browser info? Now use it in a subproject in your projects (only have to build it once).
Boom. No more need for paper docs or that crappy html that gets generated from the JavaDoc, baby, you got the source! Want to see a concise list of the methods? Open a browser to the String class. Or that pesky java.net.SocketImplFactory. Or just right click on it to get the method list. And it's fast. I imagine you could do the same thing with Qt or gtk or gdk.
Ok one more thing about hte browser. Now, instead of right-clicking on a class name, right click on a method. You get a popup list of all the classes the implement that method, and another option, "Find all implementations of XXX." This is particularly cool if you use a lot of polymorphism, because let's say you have an abstract server class, and many implementations and you're making a new one, and you want to compare the others. Select the "Find all implementations..." item, and a Browser window appears (like the other one for a class) loaded with all the methods that implement that signature, so you can just flip through them in one window. Rad.
2. Function popup.
It's weird. Whay can't anybody else get this right? The M$ tools in particular are awful about this. When you open a source file, theres a little button in the window frame that is a drop-down menu listing every method in the file. Works with Java inner-classes too. You pick a method, it scrolls to it. Simple. DevStudio makes you type in the name of the method or in the J++ tool puts them in this crappy tree control that takes up tons of screen space.
Anyhow, I'm not employed by them, I just think people can code a shitload faster with this stuff, especially if it's done with all the subtleties that Metrowerks puts into it.
In the article, note that Jenifer Simpson, "manager of technology initiatives" with the "President's Committee on Employment of People with Disablilties," asserts that "the net...would never have existed without government regulation," as an argument for more government regulation. This is a rediculous assertion. She is describing a defense network from the late seventies. What made the internet *useful* was everything else that people started to do with it that the government tried to get off of its network! The college students and people like Berners-Lee and Postel who didn't work for the government were the ones that made the net what it is today. [Couldn't find her email address anywhere.]
Yet she goes on to say, "The Internet is subject to market forces, but it didn't start through market forces, it was started by the federal government." Sounds like she a little offended at what we're doing with *her* fucking internet!
Brewer, with the W3C's "Web Access Initiative" opines "We have a major problem, and the trend is toward making sites even more complex, which decreases accessibility even further." So they want to federeally regulate internet trends.
NT's "NTFS" and IBM's AIX "JFS" are both journaled. I don't think the HP-UX filesystem is, but I am uninformed.
I do know that both AIX and HP-UX have nifty logical volume support, so you can add space to any logical partition from any *physical* partition at any time. I think that's probably an 'enterprise' requirement much more than a sort of worstation thing. What other filesystems are journaled?
Something wouldn't compile in BSD process accounting. Somebody posted a four line patch to the kernel list like ten minutes after Linus announced 2.2.4 a coupla' days ago.

Since you brought it up, NT servers don't need much "Fscking" since the NT file system is journalled.
