Google Secure Data Connector. Totally an enterprise focused product. Never really supported (getting it to work involved reading the source code), now announced to be closed with no replacement (though with a suitably long 18 month lead time).
There's nothing new here. Most big corporates/Universities etc have proxy'd their traffic for years. That has the same affect. It causes the odd problem with over-zealous blocking, but nothing major.
That misses the OP's point, which is that since Mozilla is an open source, non-profit org, it *shouldn't* work in this way. If this was about Oracle or Apple or MS or.... then you'd be right. But it's not.
If you buy Kindle books from Amazon, there's Calibre plugins that will automatically strip the DRM.
All the O'Reilly books are available (directly from O'Reilly) DRM free. There's also other sources but, yes, there's no general DRM free store yet.
Google gives different results for different users, so if the OP is logged in they might well get a different set of results to you. Getting to a state where all the results are link spam is impressive though:)
I believe that ACPO (the Association of Chief Police Officers) have written a memorandum of understanding (MoU) in which they state that IT technicians investigating the matter will not be prosecuted...
My Nikon D200 can do this, so I assume any more recent Nikon can also change the first three chars of the filename.
I do as you want to and set the first three letters to my initials.
You do realize that Google also licenses out their applications for you to run internally right?
erm. No. They don't. The only thing you can run internally is a Google search appliance. No gmail. No apps. No docs. No chat.
In other words, shut the hell up because you don't know what you're talking about.
hm.
I agree with a lot of what you say (and I'm a Mac user), but for editing one of the things that keeps me on a Mac is that there is no Linux port of the wonderful TextMate.
It's biased to Emacs keybindings, not vi, but it's much the best editor I have ever used. Keyboard short cuts for everything, easy automation, source control, syntax highlighting etc etc.
DG get it. Deutsche Grammophon Gesellschaft supplies 380k mp3s with pdf format booklets and album art. All for less than the physical cd.
I've bought several things from them already and intend to buy more.
I use unison on OS X. I sync my laptop to my desktop (Mail, Firefox, various working directories etc) and once I week I use unison to do a backup of the whole system to an external disk. This means a) I have two copies of everything and three of most important stuff and b) I can use my laptop or my desktop interchangably and know that they are in sync.
Powerful and flexible but not that easy to set up for someone that isn't comfortable in *nix land.

My recent blog post with links to the relevant extensions for Chrome and Firefox http://www.clune.org/post/20108030713/moderately-private-moderately-secure-browsing (scroll down to skip the general discussion)
And for us geeks, the Galaxy S is getting ICS. I have it running on my Galaxy S right now via CyanogenMod.
Exactly: "Never let a good crisis go to waste"

It's not enough to exist - Opera doesn't have enough market share to really force change in the way FF does.
He stared at the file for a few minutes (with #! /usr/bin/perl staring him right in the face) and asked, "What language is this written in?"
I often get that feeling looking at Perl code :)
The UK Post Office isn't privatised. Yet.
Why are you ruining nice Scotch with ice and *shudder* soda?

I suspect it depends what sector you're in.
None of the professionals I know have top-up health care.
The UK Honeynet Project spotted this a few days earlier :)

I last used it several years ago, so, yes, I should give it another go.

Bit of a sense of humour failure there....
