Ask yourself why the US people isnt rioting or strinking (ok, both share the unemployed part). Maybe being out of reality isnt exclusive of the government.
Will be for most users changing passwords 7 times a week. One for changing it, the other 6 for the "i forgot my password" link. Is a problem, not a solution. One password for each service is bad enough, forcing to change it to something different every week would be killer.
Anyway, that most are 123456 or password, and that the server stored it in plain text or in a format where is easy to obtain the original one puts the problem several layer over the forcing changing it or not one.
This is the right view. For hardware keyboard there is one main option (on i.e. phones with keypad ), but for software ones should be the ones you want, including, why not, this one. The only requisites is to find easily the key you want, to be able to be handled with just the thumb, one finger, or one hand, or 2, depends on the device (phone/tablet, touchscreen or hw keyboard), so should not be full, exclusive "winner", but to give options to people to choose with which ones be more comfortable. I don't think that will be the end of QWERTY keyboard,
The difference could be between the one that understand a bit what science is and talks loudy against it and the violent bonehead that hears him, believes everything that always say, and acts.
Better yet, the recent faster than light neutrinos. Anyway, don't close the door to new discoveries and major rewrites of theories because facts don't match their predictions. Discarding facts because don't match the idea we have of the world is called religion, not science.
Is not like "you" will be in the moon, we are more software than DNA-encoded hardware. And our DNA is probably 99.99% identical to the someone's else DNA that already been on the moon.
They hadnt a lot of problems juggling between those codebases neither. Not sure if Fedora is to Redhat Enterprise like Mageia to Mandriva, or is a totally different beast, but it could work as precedent.
still depends on the recipient. If he doesn't care or don't know the proper grammar, won't matter a lot. In fact, "wrong" grammar could be a part of a subculture where the proper one is bad. And is not just for english, i'm very aware about how this is going for spanish, and probably other languages suffer the same problem too.
spy and control their citizens (and if possible, of other countries too) is an government basic right, or at least, the ones that matters more think so.
More than a niche, an ecosystem. The good thing about being browser based is that the very web should give one. Of course, in some way that was the reasoning behind WebOS, or Tizen. Maybe the right factors joins at a good time and it is enough to impose that kind of solutions.
Maybe not in the actual stage, but in a not so far future, if it manages to get practical/faster, for everyone and in portable devices (google glass 2.0?), could it change how we think? A part of what we are is that conversation with ourselves that we call concience, if you start talking with a keyboard, maybe for everyday tasks (like searching in google/wikipedia, posting in social networks or keeping a mindblog), that could be dangerous? or just will be more or less the same as talking with an actual keyboard, or a voice recognition software?
Looks like the usual target vector of infection. If you tell them to trust that kind of things, they will keep getting infected with malware (in fact, more people will fall into that, now malware writers will know how looks a page that is announced by the government as safe and that must be trusted)
We can push far more with the global warming, the water will eventually evaporate and sea level will drop. Starting a nuclear war (because everyone screaming and running in circles do subtle changes to culture and may see it as a viable option) and getting a nuclear winter could do the trick too, in the other direction. Dealing with new reality is another option, but will be discarded as boring.
Think in fishing expedition. You can get nothing of it, or get something that could make a big difference, both for what you can make/find/bring from there, or for something that could understand us or our planet better, or even for what we will learn just trying to get there. The side effects of just going into orbit definately did a difference for a good percent of population of the world, this could pay that much too.
If you worry only for today you could not have a future. What is the alternative? using money to finance banks? to bring entertainment? to finance bloated government agencies to demolish your privacy?

I would reduce that to 2 words: Hanlon's Razor

Greece have enough economical problems to worry them with a war against their old gods.

Is not about having, but about using. Is after using the nukes that the world will rest in peace.

Anyway, a botnet uses a standard mail client to send its payload? Even thinking that is a bad signal about them.

Lawyers with straight faces could say that, even that is important for mankind, or at least, the sector of mankind that are lawyers [citation needed]
Don't attribute stupidity when it can be adequately explained by malice, if comes from lawyers. Call it Hanlon's Lawsuit.

If something goes wrong they don't have anything left to lose anyway
Are far better the ones from PKDick's "The Lethal Factor" (and the story is a better warning too about consequences on trying to control the future)
Maybe we could change it. But one thing is doing some change (for good, bad, small or big scale) and another to control it.
We are seeing every day criminal use of economy, online or not, should not be so surprising.
Apple's products can get accelerations of 10m/s^2, in fact, a lot should. Microsoft ones too, anyway
