  1. They might succeed if... on Can Democrats In Congress Restore America's Net Neutrality Rules? (nbcnews.com) · · Score: 0

    ...they bury it in legislation that funds a border wall and puts stricter teeth for enforcing restrictions on welfare spending by states.

  2. Why wait until they commit a crime if you can penalize them for something they might do. Instead of trampling just one right, lets go for 40, I mean that does follow with most of Europe's history.

  3. But isn't that regulation... on EU Gives Ultimatum To Facebook and Twitter: Obey Us Or We'll Start Regulating (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 0

    Wait...isn't just them handing down ultimatums regulation in itself?

  4. Re:Did we learn nothing from Snowden? on Ask Slashdot: Best Country For Secure Online Hosting? · · Score: 0

    Exactly

  5. Get a Mac on Ask Slashdot: How To Start With Linux In the Workplace? · · Score: 0

    I know they're expensive...but they're supported end-user based UNIX.

  6. Man...I haven't used it for years... on Ask Slashdot: User-Friendly Firewall For a Brand-New Linux User? · · Score: 0

    But as I recall it was pretty awesome. I replaced it with some basic home router at one point, then after getting fed up with the lack of SNMP support put in Zentyal. Pretty happy with that as I was able to get netatalk running on it for Time Finder backups on Mac.

  7. Wait... on FCC Orders Comcast To Stop Labeling Equipment Rental a Service Fee · · Score: 1

    Wasn't Comcast one of those companies that used to advertise their digital phone service by talking about all of the phone companies' junk fees?

  8. Of course they are... on Big Pharma Presses US To Quash Cheap Drug Production In India · · Score: 0

    India shows some semblance of common sense, and immediately Big Pharma has to come crying to lawmakers in Washington to cry about how they can't gouge the rest of the world and watch millions die without proper care because they need 4th and 5th beach homes.

  9. *cough* copyright legislation on GOP Bill To Outlaw EPA 'Secret Science' That Is Not Transparent, Reproducible · · Score: 0

    But seriously...I can't see how this wouldn't have bi-partisan support. If the left fights this it means that a.) they are just hell-bent of fighting anything the right comes up with and/or b.) there's something to hide.

  10. Re:Mapping Wifi? What for? on Mozilla Is Mapping Cell Towers and WiFi Access Points · · Score: 1

    I still question how useful this really is. Given that I generally have to replace my Wi-Fi Router/WAP every couple of years, often changing my SSID when I do. If this isn't constantly getting updated, then it would seem that its essentially useless as soon as a certain percentage of SSIDs change.

  11. Re:More useless legislation on Driver Privacy Act Introduced In US Senate · · Score: 1

    Well...the NSA just needs to buy out Ford Motor Company. Per their executives, they already know everyone who breaks the law...

  12. How is this different that what Google did? on Mozilla Is Mapping Cell Towers and WiFi Access Points · · Score: -1, Redundant

    And didn't they get screamed at?
