Take a look at SpiderOak (http://www.spideroak.com). Their fundamental security policy is "zero knowledge", meaning that their services works in such a way that everything is encrypted from the client. This is powerful stuff.
Actually, since states and cities' coffers are payed by citizens' taxes, their employees are public servants, and freedom of speech certainly does apply here.
Keyboards provide instant response, per letter, whereas SWYPE's blue trace line only gives you some vague sense of where you fat-fingered that errant letter; to boot, at the end of it all, SWYPE presents you with a teeny-tiny-spaced list of possible matches, requiring me to waste yet more time attempting to avoid fat-fingering a selection. I had hoped that this would be the great panacea it had been hyped up to be. What a waste of time.
If what you say were relevant, then the same could be said for countries bearing flags with crosses and state churches such as Norway, since they also have require loyalty oaths. If I'm pledging fealty to a country like that, it's the same thing. Yet by and large no one seems to have a problem with it.
The rabbi you quote was arrested for incitement. How is his thinking relevant to Israeli law? Whom does he represent? Who follows his advice? Looks to me like you're grabbing at whatever you can to try and confuse the issue.
Again, you're grasping here. A hateful person (who, again, was arrested for incitement) calling for killing somehow ties in with a supposed plan to "transfer" non-Jews out of Israel? Where is your causal link between the rabbi's words and an Israeli minister's aspirations? All I've seen from you is some vague implication that somehow the rabbi's mentality "fits right into [the] thinking of Israel['s] current President..."
Avigdor Lieberman, Israel's foreign minister (not its President Shimon Peres or Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu), proposed territorial swaps, not "Population transfers". There are huge diplomatic, economic and legal differences between these terms.
You're waaaaaay too emotional, dude. Most of your arguments so far have rested on shaky ground or blatant falsehoods couched in heavy appeals to pathos. Not convincing, sorry.
Mordechai Vanunu "revealed details of Israel's nuclear weapons program". Now, I don't care/what/ his motive was; the fact is, he was convicted of treason and endangering national security after he revealed confidential, strategic information. There's not much to argue about that.
Regarding the Ariel boycotters, where in the article does it mention that under Israeli law, what they are doing is illegal (or 'ILLEGAL')? That's a lone Israeli politician Avigdor Lieberman expressing his opinion that the boycotters should be denied Government funding. No mention of 'illegal' there.
Regarding Emily Henochowicz, that is tragic.
Anyway, I see your posts here and notice you consistently temper blatant falsehoods with sob stories (however true). I encourage you to please remove emotion from your argument if you want to be taken seriously.
Way to go shifting the base of the argument. The statement in question read: "Blasphemy is illegal in Israel as well." This is a blatant lie. Find me in the Israeli law code anything banning blasphemy. Everything else you quote--the loyalty oath recognizing Israel as a Jewish state--is wholly irrelevant to this matter. Stick with the subject without resorting to strawmen to try and bolster your argument.
Palestinians can't even handle interactions among themselves peacefully when they're busy throwing rival politicians off roofs[1] in Gaza and viciously beating their own civilians[2].
Dude, honestly? Given that kids there grow up watching a rabbit puppet wax enthusiastic about eating Jews[1] and a Mickey Mouse-alike raving about martyrdom on the phone with kids[2], then it's quite obvious Palestinians do not give a crap about their children.
It's been a hell of a ride these past fifteen years filled with lots of happy memories, but I'm tired of apologizing for its weaknesses and am simplifying my life by switching to Windows.

Dear Desktop Linux:
For some time now I have lamented the fact that I cannot do things under Linux which/everyone/ else can easily do under Windows. I can't be bothered messing with driver stacks just so that I can kill some time waching Youtube.
Yet another year has come and gone with perennial updates which ostensibly should fix your fifteen thousand papercuts, but don't. So, Until the situation on the ground changes for desktop users, adios!!!
Good pop culture reference:) Anyway, I was thinking that maybe hemp could be used to fuel diesel machines since it grows quickly, according to Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemp. Since I've been hearing about hemp diesel for years but have seen nothing come from it (so far), I assumed it is either burdened with legal issues or is otherwise unviable.. Does anyone know about this?
Excuse me, but something sounded off about your argument. For starters, the Federal Government is the biggest US employer, the highest payer, and for the most part uses off-the-shelf and home-grown.NET applications. You mentioned that "Most large enterprise apps can now be entirely built in Java, Ruby, Python, Perl or PHP"; sure, but it turns out that most new web apps in the Federal space are coded in.NET.
A huge leverage Microsoft has against open-source is Federal reliance on legacy apps that only run in Microsoft environments. I do agree with you that there is zero need for MS in the workplace. However, when my clients demand reports in Microsoft Word 2003 format and present me with apps coded in.NET for security review, I have my business need for Microsoft pretty clearly defined there.
I've noticed that if I eat Chinese food after I haven't had any for a long period of time, it often tastes too "rich" for me. Nothing some more helpings of it over the next two weeks won't cure;)
...what good is a phone call if you're unable to speak?
"According to the article the technology could be used to bring common social conventions such as 'No flash photography' and ****'No talking out loud'**** to these devices by disabling features or disabling the device entirely." [emphasis mine].
Interesting how your post tries to turn story about Syrian a dictatorship into a soapbox from which to pontificate about something unrelated. What does Israel have to do with how Syria mistreats its own people? Leave it out of the picture.
"A remote attacker who successfully executes a privilege escalation exploit and gains root access will have an easier time taking control of your server and hiding their tracks".
Considering that you don't need to prepare the kernel in any way--just execute the program and bang, it's patched--means that someone with root access could slip a rootkit right under your nose (i.e., without the system administrator being aware of this).
The issue isn't genetic engineering, it's that the meat is replicated from meat torn from the flesh of a living animal (at least, that's how I see it).

I was joking when I wrote this. I had no idea if this rumor was correct or not, but thanks for elucidating on it :)

Those who want peace with others must first make peace with themselves.
You gonna offer up evidence for that accusation? Last I heard, Israel has free speech.

How is this any different from Congress requiring car manufacturers to incorporate electronic stability control in their new cars?

My bad, I meant to say,
