What if the ISP says 'not without a warrant' on this too?
I think you're being naive, if you're seriously hoping ISP would stand up and protect your rights. It's not a profitable thing to do and it is most certainly not in their interest (it cost money to fight this sort of things against the government.) With majority of the market being service by just a few major ISP, there's no incentive for them to go the extra mile to keep you as their customer.
ran FF on a Tablet running android 2.2 and it was DOG SLOW (mind you this was on a Tegra 2,) and the UI looked like something that was designed for desktop. Opera was much much better...
Most of the congress critters don't even read the bill that's being put up for a vote, assuming they bother to show up for the vote.
To be fair, most of the bills being put up for a vote are unnecessarily wordy and obscure, with six zillion unrelated amendments attached. All of which makes a very dry reading and makes layman's head spin (before exploding.)
fundamental error here is the assumption that school is for educating. it isn't, and not by a long shot. it is designed to brainwash children into conforming adults. educating and creating new generation of critical thinkers has nothing to do with state sponsored education system.
to that end, punishment and reward based system fits the intend perfectly.
My personal experience has been that with nVidia parts, their proprietary driver "just works" under Linux, on occasions when it can't even identify the part itself.
With ATi/AMD... not so much; more often than not, trying to install proprietary driver is like pulling teeth out of a pitbull's mouth. Even I get it to install, it only sort-of-kind-of works. Trying to uninstall it is downright insane.
I don't know why ATi/AMD suck this hard, or why it's so much effort to get anything they made to work. But frankly as an end user, I shouldn't know or care. Stuff either "just works" or will not be considered for purchase.
chances are that code are recycled from old product to new; ported forward with minute tweaks for the current hardware platform since the management can't see the value of starting from scratch; if anything starting a new is considered a liability.
that's because PLC wasn't supposed to be networked; the core code were never designed with security in mind because they are supposed to be programmed and the parked somewhere and never mess with again.
MAFIAA is pleased to announce that in their effort to combat piracy, lobotomy is now included in the list of remedies for three-strikes infraction. Naturally any attempt to recollect any part of any film is considered as one strike.
You could, at your option, pay a... modest fine instead of receiving the lobotomy.
Solyndra probably could've used some of that business, except that with the way Wally World works, they probably would insist Solyndra to relocate their factory to China...
Some how I don't think the current occupants of Korean peninsula would be receptive to the idea... indeed, I suspect many of them would find the very concept of being grouped with the Japanese as being of same origin deeply insulting, irrespective of what genetical evidence there might be.
And please don't encourage the Japanese to try to reestablish the Great East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere again; the last time they tried it, most other occupants of the said sphere did not fare well...

They can produce cheaper imitations, but their contraptions will never command this level of devotion.
it's called "patent trolling," "eternal copyright," and "software patents."
Short version - "Bend over."

We're still a free society, just that some (government officials/employees) are more equal than others (the "little" people.)

Unionize and and watch Wally World close down stores.
