As they surely will be watching/hearing (at least since 5 years ago they enjoy a lot intercepting and sharing hot phone sex calls), you can try to enjoy having spectators and have fun with them.
Spying is not an act of war, but is an act of aggression. Doing it in the very place where peace and agreement is try to be made between nations is a clear signal that US don't care at all about those topics. Stop being fooled about "we are doing this because we care about people", all is just another plot for getting more power and more money.
But what about intercepting phone sex calls of troops with their loved ones? And not just intercepted, shared between them when the conversation was hot.
And they did that with soldiers, in an environment where their superiors were more or less aware of what they were doing, so they restricted themselves in what they could do. What kind of respect you can expect from them? What kind of respect should they (as people and as institutions) deserve?
Oh, this is for your safety, so all is justified, except that the most monitored countries includes China, Russia, France, Germany, Japan, and Brazil, This is more about starting a war (and/or stealing IP) than defending from terrorists.
Star Trek: Enterprise was just a Holodeck program, didn't had to be consistent. Even opening theme was a clear signal that something wrong was happening there.
As someone that learned programming using pascal, im pretty used to pressure. But anyway, current culture still focus in stars, space and so on, while there are problems not yet fully solved like gravity, radiation and being self sustained. Compared to them, pressure is an easier problem, and a shorter term alternative for another habitat (at least, while we don't contaminate too much oceans) for living, exploring and/or gathering resources.
If well space is the final one, the colonization of the sea could be the next wave, plenty of space, food, resources, and even energy that can be obtained there, at a fraction of the cost of going to orbit or other planets. It have more sense to do an ocean race instead of a space one, and anything that help in that direction could get a big market in a middle term future.
Someone has been reading Reamde lately. Anyway, that something that enables you to interact with other people can be used to interact in "wrong" ways is something that don't applies just to games, and yet, that argument is being used to demonize internet, games, even the Tor network. If you want to be free must accept that people could use that freedom to do bad things, and the solution is going after those people, not punishing everyone taking out freedom.
Somewhat the sun was hit by an "unnamed" comet, and then the Sun is sending an eruption right into our direction, as it was a connection between those events. Is not uncommon that the sun is hit by comets. Unless this one had a core of exotic matter or was a disguised photon torpedo should be no relation between those events..
They cry. Other people only monitor, opress, indiscriminately kills or violate human rights on their own population. US, in the other hand, does that as the invasion army of their banks and biggest corporations.
Not just your country, UK, NZ, Sweden and others are either in bed with US or in their pocket. Is not enough that US is in fact a plutocracy, a lot of other countries that claim to be democracies aren't either, or are following orders of the same plutocrats (either by being bribed, extorted, scared, or being just retards). US is just out of hope, everything was given to the real rulers in a silver plate for decades, but would think that in some of those countries population opinion mean something.
Regarding bricking, this could put you in the right context. Maybe it was a "mistake" from Samsung, maybe not, maybe others could or will have the same. And going to Windows 7 don't change the core problem of why is a security risk.
in march (and probably others undersea cable cuts that happened recently close to that zone). Or it was an "oops, i did it again" from an agent, or was meant to be done that way (i.,e. an "accidental" cut by an anchor) so the company that repaired it added the extra functionality.
And knowing who exactly they are put your government in position to give them the right push so they act. The next thing you know is that their democratically elected government got overthrown and a bunch of puppets rule there. Probably that happened in Egypt, is happening in Syria, and happened in most of the Arab Spring countries.
There is no better prediction of the future than the one that you make it happen.
Try to buy today a computer/notebook that don't includes Windows 8, even gets bricked if you try to use something else, and that the manufacturer refuse to support if you installed something else on it.
In the other hand, this should improve the selling of the ones that are open regarding that (i.e. that you can install Linux on it with all the hardware working, and that gets manufacturer support even if you do so), and put the ones that went fully on Windows 8 in even more troubles. Hope that most governments do the same recomendations.
If water rises tomorrow (to put an extreme example) 5 meters, hundreds of millons could die. Adaptation is good, if you are one of the survivors, or the elite with plenty of resources (the one that don't care about this because that reason, and even fund denial campaigns).
Life, having a future, your childs, mankind, etc dont matter. Keeping (and rising, if possible) profits is the ultimate metric for corporations. And governments are managed by them, either directly or by proxy (i.e. US, the NSA, etc), so nothing will be done (and if you try to do something you could even be sentenced as terrorist)
Don't confuse weather with climate, specially global one. In the global climate trend, temperature is rising, that can't be denied (even if is denied by people that don't believe in the data, and think that the earth is flat and is 6000 years old). But local weather have a lot of factors and you can have i.e. cold days in summer in a particular year.

Maybe the NSA screwed things a bit when were installing there their new codenamed program (after Snowden published all the old ones).

That would be nicer than putting (spoiler alert) the clones of Sam Bell there.
For some games that latency would be a killer. But the US army think that it would be ok for playing Space Invaders.

If is meant to be eventually public, then just make it public. As Linus said "Only wimps use tape backup. REAL men just upload their important stuff on ftp and let the rest of the world mirror it" (ok, maybe not ftp right now, some more updated/social alternatives), The consequences of not releasing it (even in human lives) could eventually be worse than doing it unedited.

I mean, his successor is the one that will get one, whoever he is just for not being Ballmer.

It wasn't googled, they searched internet in Bing. Sometimes representative enough companies turns into english verbs.

Considering how everyones freedom is being gradually decimated, will not be long till he will have more freedom in prison than us outside it.
After he distributes the rings to nokia, qualcomm, samsung et al, he will keep the one that will make him invisible for the NSA.
